Is Ukraine running out of fighters?

Ursula von Der Leyen said that Ukraine has had 100,000 KIA. Based on the formula that for every troop killed 3 are injured that means 400,000 Ukrainian troops are out of action. How much longer is this silly war going to continue. Russia is simply sitting back firing artillery and missiles guided by drones and there is nothing Ukraine can do about it. Regardless of whose side you are on this is the situation on the ground.

Would America run out of fighters if they were invaded by a foreign military power, which destroyed towns and killed and tortured people? I guess not.

@helenS Russia is conducting one of the most ethical wars in years. The US is one of the worst offenders when it comes to being nasty at war. Its proxy Ukraine isn't much better. I have yet to figure out what the US hoped to gain in provoking this war between Ukraine and Russia. Very strange why the US would provoke it and then Europe cut off its nose to spite its face to join in with the US. A deindustrialized Europe is on the horizon as many Europeans are reduced to heating their homes like medieval peasants.

@hippyjoe1955 I just love how our neighbor to the North knows all about what this country did. By the way, does your country support Ukraine at all? Money? Or Arms? Or? Seriously, I am asking, I don't know. Just as it is my belief you don't know about mine either. Believe the propaganda. It is your right.

@SW-User So how many wars has the US started since the end of WWII? Be honest.
SW-User
@hippyjoe1955 you tell me. You're the expert. List the wars thevUS started since WW2. Or even include those before if you like.

@SW-User So you are all on fire for the US and have no idea how many millions of people it has killed by its foolish wars. Amazing.

@helenS They would, actually. Just as GB could only field a few hundred soldiers in war, the US under Biden has so weakened its military (no jab, no job... soldiers identifying as women, etc) and sent so much weaponry to Ukraine or gifted it to enemies, that its response would be poor.

@hippyjoe1955 first off, we will never agree on our wars. So the numbers you want to spout will be skewed.

@SW-User So about those weapons of mass destruction in Iraq..... Has democracy broken out in Afghanistan?

@hippyjoe1955 I forget. When did Canada stay out of the coalition,?
hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M
@SW-User Canada did not send troops to Iraq. It did send some to Afghanistan and the yanks killed 4 of them when a hopped up pilot thought the Canadian live fire exercise was actual conflict. Your point however is moot. I don't approve of Canada's involvement in those wars either.

@hippyjoe1955 well maybe next time the aircraft will flown into Canadian resources, god forbid. Maybe you will come off your liberal high horse then. But don't come begging us for aid. Of course we will support and offer it to our neighbors to the North.

@SW-User And you went to war because of 9/11? Seriously? The problem is the open borders the US has. Everyone was warned by the flight school. It was ignored.
