It really comes down to someone knowledgeable about the subject talking to someone who is not only completely ignorant, but will continue to argue despite knowing nothing and being unwilling to do even the slightest research.  The problem with living with such a delicate mental framework is you're either a buffoon, disrespected by everyone and despised by most, or eventually a little tiny bit of truth and light slips in and the whole rotten edifice crumbles, which can be difficult to handle.

 

But not to worry!  We're all confident you'll remain forever in your current place, the former camp.  Enjoy your fact-free day, Frank.  Keep labeling anything that frightens you "ThE LaMeStReAm MediA!"

You're still waffling

Comparing it to WW1 isn't the worst analogy, but what broke the stalemate was the infusion of fresh troops fighting by different rules altogether (American in that case).  That's not going to happen for either side, though Russia's North Koreans seem to have finally made a difference in Kursk after horrific losses.  Here's the thing -- just like for the Germans in WW1, nearly all their gains happened early on with little progress despite the enormous loss of life and treasure.

You should watch this. It's a decent analysis of the Kursk Oblast incursion.

the "offer" contains some terms, that are unacceptable. It was made to fail. no surprise at all

cease fire during celebration of Victory Day, which is sacred for Russian. what's wrong with it? 

GE, FR & UK will sabotage any peace deal/proposals. 

Obviously nothing will change soon

You just can't bring yourself to say it can you, o' neutral one.😆

Sure mate. If someone isn't fully pro-Ukrainian they must be pro-Russian. Extremely simplistic outlook and one that's well suited to ridiculous comments like yours. There is absolutely no bias in saying that Russia has the upper hand in the war. It's factual. Facts do not have bias. The Kursk Oblast incursion failed. This is a verifiable fact. See the war maps I previously posted. As I said a fact cannot be biased.

You could have just stopped there. You didn't need all that other waffle to prove my point.

The "waffle" as you say is correct leaving you no other choice but to deflect which is pretty much all you do.

let's hope the orange man is changing his approach to Ptin and gives him some ultimatums and red lines

Mr. Dinsdale, you're really fixated on Kursk.  No one else has talked about it in the entire thread but you.  The real discussion is not about tactics -- the theme of the video -- but strategy.  That's the better platform for analysis, if you can find anyone interested.  Maybe start a new thread?
