Behind the tough guy language, there is no argument here. What's the firepower advantage of the respective parties to the conflict? Manpower? How might that change with further NATO action, and how are you proposing to change it? As it turns out, I'm right and Joshi is wrong,… https://t.co/de9QIt0UjR— JD Vance (@JDVance) February 21, 2025
All of these genius arguments were proven beyond doubt when the USA won the Vietnam War and the USSR won the Afghan War. https://t.co/qzWfj7Uoqs— Phillips P. OBrien (@PhillipsPOBrien) February 22, 2025
Yes, the weaker side can sometimes win, but these cases are very bad analogies. North Vietnam and Afghanistan won by sacrificing huge masses of their men. There was an asymmetry in accepting casualties. That does not apply to Ukraine.— Whyvert (@whyvert) February 22, 2025
The difference between those conflicts being America lost Vietnam politically and the USSR lost Afghanistan militarily. Which just strengthens your point.— Triode (@Triode_in_situ) February 22, 2025
And of course, the old wisdom that an invading force must have at least 4x manpower than the defenders to advance. We should not look for coherence, logic, etc— Nicholas Vinocur ✍️ (@NicholasVinocur) February 22, 2025
Yes, Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Chief of Naval Ops, and Vice Chief of the Air Force...but they fired the top JAG's in the Army, Navy, and Air Force too. Why would you fire the top lawyers in the military? That's the part you should be asking out about. It's… pic.twitter.com/c7CJzshFMC— Fred Wellman (@FPWellman) February 22, 2025

Interesting divide in Germany between Atlanticist, Catholic South/West and formerly Protestant now entirely secular East ahead of today’s election. AfD and Left favoured in secular East, CDU/CSU in majority Catholic region. pic.twitter.com/YR0vV9mKEg— Karl Gustel Wärnberg (@KarlGustel) February 23, 2025
Yes. And this shows why one shouldn't demonise AfD, as do too many critics. You and I are not AfD because we’re not East German and didn’t grow up in the GDR. But we can use historical and socio-geographical knowledge to empathise. Love for Europe is love for European plurality. https://t.co/DzlwnXJsfI— Eric Hendriks (@HendrKim) February 23, 2025

They’ve also…— Simon Ostrovsky (@SimonOstrovsky) February 21, 2025
I believe this is an incredibly important topic to be covering at the moment because so many Americans think this is just a war for territory. But it’s so much worse than that. It’s a war of Russian cultural supremacy and those who don’t bow down are wiped out. But don’t take my…— Simon Ostrovsky (@SimonOstrovsky) February 21, 2025
