I wonder if it might be like the Big Unit phase of Vietnam, where the US thought they could shoot it out with the NVA in climatic battles, figuring correctly that they could throw more firepower around. What they did not anticipate was that the NVA would not dash themselves against a rock for no purpose, and also, even in incredibly lopsided engagements, the NVA was far more willing to absorb casualties than the US was. Ultimately it failed and the NVA did have to change tack, but at the same time it caused the US to dramatically escalate commitment because there was no way in hell the ARVN of 1965-66 was going to last in battles like that. In 1965 the US planned on deploying brigades to Vietnam, not whole divisions, and that firepower would do most of the work. So, and this could be a stretch, in a collision between the side with firepower and the side willing to run the risk, eventually it will break one way or the other but both sides will suffer setbacks for their choices. Grab Their Belts to Fight Them: The Viet Cong's Big Unit-War Against the U.S., 1965-1966 “During 1965 and 1966,” wrote Dale Andrade, a historian at the U.S. Army Center of Military History, “the Communists fought the Americans toe to toe, making little effort to act like guerillas.” Indeed, despite pronounced disadvantages in firepower and mobility, the Communist Vietnamese endeavored to crush South Vietnam and expel the American military with a strategy predicated on “big unit” war. Orchestrated by a militant clique in Hanoi, the “big unit” war was designed to yield a quick and decisive victory over South Vietnam. Exploiting an extensive array of Communist Vietnamese sources, including seldom utilized unit histories and battle studies, Grab Them by Their Belts chronicles in rich detail the formation, development, and participation of the Viet Cong in the opening stanza of the Communist big unit war against the Americans, and how the ultimate failure of that war profoundly influenced the decision to launch the Tet Offensive. Grab Them by their Belts, unlike much of the existing body English literature on the Vietnam War, mined the expansive Communist historiography on the conflict to craft an authentic and accurate account of the big unit war from a Communist perspective. Communist memoirs, unit histories, and battlefield studies were extensively consulted to reconstruct the formation and deployment of major VC/NVA military units, battles and campaigns, and the overarching strategic debates that informed the big unit war. Additionally, Grab Them by Their Belts recounts how the Communist big unit war reflected the desire to crush South Vietnam quickly and decisively, and how the failure of that war influenced the decision to launch the Tet Offensive.

US President Joe Biden said that preliminary information suggests it is unlikely the missile that caused an explosion in Poland on Tuesday and killed two civilians was fired from Russia. Speaking to reporters after meeting with other world leaders in Bali, Indonesia, the president was asked if it was too early to say whether the projectile was fired from Russia. "There is preliminary information that contests that. I don’t want to say that until we completely investigate it," Biden responded. He added that "it’s unlikely in the minds of the trajectory that it was fired from Russia. But we’ll see."

As a tankie, I agree with the president. I think he is very cool and competent, so if he says it wasnt a missile that must be true. I am smart at politics

Majorian posted:Good, glad he's not waving the bloody shirt over it. id never heard this expression before n looked up what it comes from and lol The phrases gained popularity with a fictitious incident of April 1871 in which U.S. Representative and former Union general Benjamin Butler of Massachusetts, while making a speech on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives, supposedly held up a shirt stained with the blood of a Reconstruction Era carpetbagger who had been whipped by the Ku Klux Klan. Although Butler did give a speech condemning the Klan that month, he never waved anyone's bloody shirt. White Southerners mocked Butler, using the fiction of his having "waved the bloody shirt", to dismiss widespread Klan thuggery and other atrocities, including murder, committed against freed slaves and Republicans. im glad he didn't flip out either tho have they figured out whose missile it was yet or where it came from?

speng31b posted:the apartment buildings is an obvious reference to ukrainian air defense misfiring into apartments earlier in the conflict bit late but yeah this is what I was referring to, I don’t think any of the S-300 incidents were false flags. the first apartment building that got hit probably wouldn’t even have gotten any attention if it wasn’t for the fact that the media desperately tried to spin it as russia deliberately targeting civilians with cruise missiles.
