Lol, you wish these flashy headlines weren't complete manipulations... but they are. There's no possibility at all at the moment to siege Crimea. Not nearly enough resources.
Sometimes you have to look past the headlines to get informative, errr, information.
Did you watch the vid?

No, I was repulsed by the obviously manipulative headline.
I read the summary and it did not hint on justifying the headline in any way, instead, it talked about things I already knew.
I use several sources of information of various profiles to get possibly large picture, including to know how much
I need to accept as "unknown for laypeople" for the time being.
English-speaking videos are not a form my brain prefers.

Biden says U.S. won't be providing F-16s to Ukraine
Quote:
President Joe Biden said Monday that the U.S. won't be providing F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine, appearing to reject a key request from the country as it fends off Russian aggression.
Kyiv has made it clear it would like to have fighter jets such as the F-16s, a hope renewed by the U.S. announcing last week the approval of the transfer of M1 Abrams fighter tanks. Yuriy Sak, an adviser to Ukraine's defense minister, told CNBC last week, "We will get F-16s."
But Mr. Biden threw cold water on that idea Monday. Asked on the White House South Lawn if the U.S. would provide F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine, he said, "No."

But he will be providing F-16 to European countries...who WILL supply Ukraine.

Have you heard of the expression:
"You can't judge a book by its cover"?
There were some relevant points in that video that I may point out if I review the video again.
BTW, I thought you would have more respect for my critical thinking skill by now.

Well as far as the notion goes that this war will bleed Russia dry, Russia was able to afford an invasion on Afghanstan for years and they still functioned as a nation long after they lost that one, so will it bleed them dry, when comparing to that?
You are forgetting the massive sanctions against Russia these days.
I wouldn't be surprised if the Russian Federation collapses in the future as a result of pootin's war.

Do you mean using ammo in quantities like in WWII or do you mean someone using WWII ammo?Pepe wrote:
*This will probably be a long war.
We'll see.What is your problem?
He was talking about the quantity of the number of shells/ammunition used.
