Russia may have the tanks but Ukrainians have the armchair generals!

[yellowcanine]

Criminy, I can't believe all of the generaling happening on DU! If only the Ukrainians would listen to us!

[Carlitos Brigante]

1. But you haven't listened to my strategy yet........... :-P nt

9. My favorite is "Why can't we hit the tank column from the side with antitank missiles?

As if all of the tanks in the column have only one gun and it faces the front at all times.

11. They don't?!...... I may need to rethink a few things then..... nt

2. I'm sure that they are talking to real NATO generals and getting the best advice available.

But I would recommend that they spit out their chewing gum on the highways leading into their cities. This will stop them.

4. Not to mention hiding all the puppies so the starving Russians can't eat.

[Wingus Dingus]

8. Banana peels! Dropped boxes of roofing nails! WD-40 sprayed on the roads!

Nobody wants my military advice either, why is that?

[AZSkiffyGeek]

3. HOW DARE YOU!!!

They're just trying to deal with the situation. You need to be more considerate!

[yellowcanine]

6. Clearly more wars are needed so we can get more experience generaling!

5. +1000

As if some Ukrainian general is going, "do something to slow down that convoy??? Why didn't I think of that? Thank you Sally in Cedar Rapids Iowa, no one here could have dreamed of something so genius."

7. I've mostly stopped commenting. There's no point to busting all these bubbles.

So much happy-clappy, too.

10. Oh boy, now you've done it

[texasfiddler]

12. I've done my research and this is how Ukraine can

Wipe out that column …….

[OilemFirchen]

13. I'm guessing this is a bad time to discuss deploying the Jewish Space Lasers. (n/t)

[sarisataka]

14. I just wonder what happened to the pacifists

I recall a week ago reading more than a few 'Putin's bluffing, we need to mind our business', 'no war under any circumstances' and 'why are we making the MIC rich by sending weapons'.

This week it's 'bomb the Kremlin', 'a lot of Russians could be taken out with a tac nuke' and 'we need to arm every Ukrainian man, woman and child'.

[Fix The Stupid]

16. Bravo!... You get it. Isn't it strange....

Isn't it strange how one's principles can be so easily reversed?

Strange...in a totally predictable and disgusting way.

[yellowcanine]

17. They have turned into Robert E. Lee and are planning flanking maneuvers on the Russian armored

columns.

15. Touche!

I have been pretty good at keeping my mouth shut here, but I certainly would like to think that I could run some aspects of the war a little better. Maybe not on the large scale, but when it comes to small unit tactics or deploying troops at the battalion level and below I think I could be useful.

Then I remind myself that for many Ukrainians, this isn’t the first time they’ve dealt with combat. They most likely are executing the best defense they can with the troops and equipment they have. I doubt I could do better.
