That's just in the first two weeks of the conflict. For context, in the three weeks it took us to take Baghdad in 2003, we lost 139 killed and 551 wounded.

Using this board's standard, that means it's actually 20-30k killed

Don't know if I could trust this number. Since everyone making up shite nowadays. But if true that's a staggering amount of motherfrickers dead in 2 weeks.

Just make up whatever number you think that can be somewhat believable and get the most clicks.

Don't worry I'm sure RT will claim only 100 Russians have been killed and this place can pop some bottles

Let us hope the figures are accurate. I have no idea why so many people seem to be pulling for the Russians to succeed in this campaign.

I don't believe in Russiagate. I don't believe Putin helped Trump win the White House in 2016 and I don't believe he worked to help him get re-elected in 2020. What I do believe, however, is that Russia is a bad actor and has grand designs for eastern Europe that may end up negatively effecting our relations with friendly and loyal allies like Poland.

I don't hate the current occupant in the White House enough that I root for an entire European nation to lose its sovereignty just to make the guy look foolish.
