Why do you hate American Veterans so much? You seem to despise them. Why is that?

Would you trust your life to a 32 year old SA-7? Do you even know what one is?

From your own article the Russians spend between $150-180b per year.

NATO combined spending without the United States spends $400b+.

You have no point, other than repeating some German general who has the opinion that his military isn't up to his standards. 1 country out of 30.
Yep. The country with the highest GDP in NATO after the US, and that general happens to be the GermannArmy Commander. Do you think you know more about the capabilities of HIS army than he does?


And how about those Brits?

You know what's scarier than an antiquated AA launcher?

The Mi-24 it's pointed at.

You have lost all sense of reality.

I'm saying that it doesn't matter. NATO combined, excluding the US, spends 2.5 times more than Russia. Throw in the US, and that number is close to a factor of 10.

You are literally complaining about nothing. And it makes me question your motives.

And you are simply WRONG. And if I were complaining about nothing the Ukrainians wouldn’t be in this mess. And you question EVERYBODY’S motives who doesn’t view this as simplistically as you do.

Ad hominem is basically all you got, and it shows.

No. I've given you point after point. And when you get backed into a corner is when the article spam starts. In the end, it doesn't matter. Trump isn't President (thankfully) and Putin has played his hand so poorly that even if he wins, he still loses.

No, you’ve given me nothing but opinion - the opinion of someone ignorant and inexperienced in military matters. But take the last word - I won’t care or know - you are now on my blocked list.
