I was also awarded the Queens Order of Australia Medal (OAM) hence the post nominals after my name. Then Being medically separated from the Army I flew to Ukraine in 2022 for 6.5months and now make content full time. I really appreciate you being here Thankyou

      GDP is (Gross Domestic Product) how, are transfer charges considered a product? The West redefined how GDP is calculated to allow their economies to seem stronger than they actually are. Another point is even the person that created the concept GDP stated it is not a good measure of a nation's wealth. What is a better measure of a nation's wealth is GDP by PPP as every country uses its own money and in the end spending power within borders is a good measure.

    This war was a massive failure for the West in every way. Militarily, Russia has modernized it's army, gained a lot more experience. Economically, they've strengthened it and pushed it to develop it's own industries. Geopolitically, it strengthened ties to China, severed relationship with Europe and gained more allies in Global South.
    And Israel's genocidal rampage could not happen at a worse time for the West: completely annihilating trust in their institutions and "values", while further straining their economies.

    I disagree about Soviet system.
    Russia is doing today goes far beyond boundaries of how operations were structured in USSR. Even such unit as "battalion tactical group"(BTG) didn't exist in USSR, but in Russia it's main unit of army. They have changed the entire army since 2010s.
    Problem with Western powers is that they are stuck in Cold War era and don't want to face the truth. They use methods of war against USSR, when USSR has long since ceased to exist. Today Russia almost not recruiting new soldiers; Russian army has only mobilization in 2022(November, for put another forces in vacation).
    You can compare this with Ukraine, where mobilizations never end and the borders are closed, meanwhile NATO trained them, entire NATO supply huge donations and weapons, entire EU repair ukrainian/nato equipment,why do they lose?

    I think there is a great misunderstanding of GDP. That number encompasses everything about the economy including things that in the end do not matter. Take how much is spent on education or how much consumers spend.
    What is actually produced should be the issue to look at. Does Russia produce everything it needs to function despite sanctions? Would California or EU states be in that same position.
    Putin prepared Russia for this war economically and it is showing just how well he did.

    16:14 - Because of Willy's pro-UkroNazi leanings, he can't entertain the notion that Syrski is lying about the supposed "50,000 troops" redirected to Kursk. Other commentators, such as The Duran, believe it's just pure cope, and Syrski is saying it so his & 'elensky's Kursk offensive disaster won't look so bad. There are most certainly not 50,000 Russian troops in that area.

      I agree though I have a feeling I know why they are saying something like 50k troops there. They can say when they get kicked out of Kursk only 10k Russians remain or however many Russian troops are in the area. They can claim to be kicked out Russia had to lose 40k or whatever number they choose to use to retake the territory. Basically a free PR moment even if its not even remotely true.

Fundamentally, this is a war of attrition and basic math suggests that the country with the larger population and industry is that one that will prevail.

    When people say that California or New York has a bigger economy than Russia, they're usually talking about nominal GDP, which is measured in U.S. dollars. But that comparison can be misleading.
    Different types of economies: California's economy is mainly driven by tech, entertainment, and services, while Russia’s is heavily based on natural resources like oil, gas, and minerals. Comparing these directly isn't straightforward.
    Purchasing power matters: When you adjust for what money can actually buy in each country (called Purchasing Power Parity, or PPP), Russia’s economy is bigger than it looks in dollar terms. This matters because Russia can produce goods and services, like tanks or missiles, for much less in roubles compared to what it would cost in the U.S. in dollars.
    Military production costs: For example, Russia doesn’t need to match California or New York in dollar terms to build its military equipment. The cost to produce a tank in Russia (in roubles) is much lower than what it would cost in dollars in the U.S.

    The fallacy in believing RU can be collapsed is in not understanding the key differences between debt economies and resource economies. Yes, California has a "larger economy"" than RU, but California's economy is largely a debt economy, not based on natural resources (other than their agriculture). Meanwhile RU has the largest cache of natural resources in the entire world, and their economy is not fundamentally one of debt like in the west, but rather fundamentally resource based. Which is the exact aspect that led to America's predominance in the 1800s-1900s, but is now largely depleted. We see this key difference manifest in attritional warfare where debt based economies can create qualitative military superiority, but simply cannot keep up quantitatively, and thus fail in the end.

    Willy, GDP is a poor measure of war fighting ability. Using PPP Russia is about 4-5th just behind Japan and closing.
    Netflix contributes more to the USA GDP than their steel industry does to Russia's. Which is invaluable to war though?
    And the Russians use junior officers to fulfil many roles we use NCOs for. Not necessarily a win for us that is it?

    Uncle Joe (Joseph Stalin) left a huge foundation in the real economy and Science. And the current rulers of Russia were smart enough not to scrap ALL the factories and not to close all scientific institutes. What is left is more than enough to fill military orders. Is this how powerful the Soviet economy was, which in thirty years can restrain NATO's efforts?

    You're overlooking the fact Zelensky is an actor, and always has been. These visits to NATO countries and meetings with leaders are all, for PR purposes. Actual strategy is determined by the US, behind the scenes, as you MUST know by now.
    Zelensky was groomed for the part years ago. Go watch Scott Ritter's "Agent Zelensky" docu, which may be typically American and full of hyperbole, but he isn't making that stuff up. The Servant of The People show was created for him, so they could shoehorn him into the presidency, backed by the $billions of George Soros.
    Russia will not, use nuclear weapons unless, there is no possible alternative, regardless of any saber-rattling, as they are responsible adults unlike, those who hold power in NATO countries, - none of whom, represent the views of their people. What Russia will do, is supply more weapons to various groups hostile to the US and it's vassal states and encourage them to attack their military bases all around the world. Doing so will greatly destabilise the current US grip on the world, and add to the increasing view that, the US is an ageing dinosaur, - bulky, but incapable of defending itself effectively, and nothing to be feared. A view already established by their failures in Afghanistan, Ukraine, and the Red Sea.
    The Russian MOD has reported that, two battalions of the AFU have been encircled in the north-west of the Kursk salient. They also, report 22,000 AFU casualties in the Kursk region, so far.They report 30,000 AFU troops remaining in the salient.
    The Kursk salient is not, a "significant card" in negotiations, as Russia will not, sign any kind of settlement whilst, the AFU occupies Russian territory. Putin himself, made that crystal clear, and the Russian public wouldn't stand for any compromise in that.
    All NATO has achieved with their utterly reckless gamble in Kursk, is to harden Russian public opinion to the point where, Putin has rock-solid support by almost, the entire Russian people. Western media reports of internal divisions are based on wishful-thinking, and nothing else.
    I suspect, the Russians are unusually, going to do a genuine pincer movement and cut off most the AFU to the north. Doing so before the Nov. 5th US elections would be a massive PR victory, not to mention, an impressive military manouvre, and would hammer home Russian dominance for the world to see. Risky, of course, but worth it if, they can achieve it.
    Your mapping of the Toretsk area is way behind the events on the ground. The Russians now, control approx. 40% of the built-up area, on a line running from the south-west, to the north-east, just before the coal mine spoil heap.
    On the Pokrovsk front, I find it utterly implausible that, the AFU continue to hold the open fields to the east of Zoryane, surrounded as they are, and with the urban areas west of them at risk of encirclement. Sure, the AFU commanders seem fuckin useless, but surely, the guys on the ground have learned by now that, you need to withdraw before, the Russians have all possible routes under fire control? Just because, no geo-located footage confirms that area as under Russian control, doesn't mean it isn't, especially as, such footage is often, several days behind events on the ground.
