Is WWIII inevitable?

[uls]

there are 2 main explanations why putin invaded ukraine:


1) nato expansion (read John Mearsheimer)





2) putin's imperial ambitions

Bakit hinde natapos nun start pa lang? Before even all the help rolled in?

Hinde ko talaga makalimutan sinabi na it will only take days for Russia to invade Ukraine because of there overwhelming military superiority. Kahit dito dami nag sabi eh.

Mahirap magpredict ng outcome ng war. Kahit naman si US, ilan years mga war nya in the Middle East and Afghanistan.

There's a difference between prediction and arrogance. Putin was arrogant enough to think he can blitzkrieg Ukraine.

Yes there is what we call a fog of war that could surprise even the best planned strategy, but just like Digong saying "6 months" and turning out to be more than 6 years, there's just too much a gap that even his allies are now questioning what happened. hehe

Social media is awash with claims, repeated on news websites, that Russian President Vladimir Putin surrounded himself with actors for his New Year's address and at previous events. But what's the evidence?

Billions of aid in military equipment na pinadala sa Ukraine, and magpapadala pa ulit now ng more powerful weapons like the patriot missiles. Ibig sabihin, hindi kinaya nung mga naunang military equipments si Russia. Yet, puro mga vintage weapons pa yata gamit ni Russia.

Outside of items like refurbished Soviet-era T-72 tanks, Western leaders have been generally hesitant to send advanced armored vehicles to Ukraine, in part for fear of escalation and the conflict pouring over NATO’s borders.

But this week has seen a spate of announcements from Washington, Berlin and Paris that will send lethal vehicles to Kyiv, in what may be part of a Western strategy to slowly but surely ratchet up the tension on Moscow and could presage mobile armor transfers to come.

The transfer of a German Marder infantry fighting vehicle (IFV) package, of around 40 vehicles, along with a Patriot air defense system was signed off by Chancellor Olaf Schultz after a Jan 5. phone call with US President Joe Biden. The same day, Washington agreed for the first time to send 50 M2A2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicles. Those equipment pledges come on the heels of France agreeing to supply Ukraine with the nimble AMX-10RC armored reconnaissance vehicles.

Poland had bad experiences with Germany, Austria/Hungary and Russia during the many Partitions. In early WW2 Russia and Germany even gang-banged Poland (remember Katyn Massacre). One can say they are the Israel of Europe.
