  • Winning and losing is nebulous concept since ww2. The initial goal in Afghanistan was destroying al qaeda’s base of operations and killing bin laden. All accomplished, so ‘win’? The whole nation building was a nice idea, but who really cares about the goat farmers as long as they don’t harbor terrorists.

    As for Ukraine, please tell me how Russia thinks it’s (still) winning, support does seem to be waning for Ukraine support. But Russia has lost almost double the amount of tanks the US has in service alone.

    Even if they win, it will absolutely have been a pyrrhic victory that gutted their armed forces, ruined their economy, and made them dependent on China, Iran, and NK.

    BTW, a US destroyer (with some airborne radar support) can defend a thousand km in each direction and low earth orbit.
