    "perhaps they assumed the enemy would not fight back..."
    heh heh.

    "no battle plan survives first contact (with the enemy)."

    Iba talaga will of the Taliban. They were willing to wait and die. The willingness to die is very rare. Modern countries populations dont have this often. But the Taliban felt it an honor to die for their beliefs. Thats a special power no amount of weaponry can defeat. And they were Very patient. They played the looong game. 20 years....different breed afghan warriors Mujahideen.... i despise them but i respect their bravery and fear their fanaticism.

    And they knew the so called Allies of the Americans were weak and corrupt. No amount of money was gonna cure that rot.

    The people also had no long term will to fight against the brutal Taliban. All the brave individual warriors were slowly hunted down and killed by the Taliban even at terrible cost to themselves. In the end...no one was willing to fight them cause they knew it would catch up with them eventually. Unpopular war.......

    Russians, British, Americans...the result was the same. Tactical victories. Strategic defeat.

    Time is the strongest weapon of all.

    In Ukraine...vast majority are willing to fight and kick Russian ass. Thats a big difference.

    Its a long thread na but tamad akong i backtrack to read about the invasion in Crimea.
    What's Putin's reason of invading Crimea? Will there be a threat from US or West during that time?

    Also, I remember Putin's ambition when he first came to power is to get back the old USSR territory.
    And Ukraine is one of that territory.
    So what he is doing in Ukraine is just fulfilling that dream.

    dead soldiers too..which sideż be my guest..russia mobilized only 300thou after the september2022 ukranian counter-offensive which is by waning now, hence the request for western main battle tanks for another counter-offensive to finally drive the russians out of crimea

Russia's 'invasion and occupation' of Ukrainian territory.
