one guy on youtube who was allegedly an intelligence officer and weapon's inspector is not "proof"...
By the way, you can listen to an old recording of Scott Ritter's background and credentials shared in the first 5 minutes of his presentation to the Baltimore Council of Foreign Affairs back in 1999.  If anything, he is qualified to make the comments he does regarding the US empire's recent and continuing involvement in Ukraine.

being a weapons inspector in the 90s in iraq makes him qualified to speak on the current situation in ukraine?

It might be if he uses the same words over and over, like "imperialism," "occupation," propaganda," ....

Learning that Russian armor is becoming more useless due to anti armor weapons, which can be manned by 1 person and hit n run style.  RPGs used in the middle east are outdated compared to whats being used in ukraine.

Same goes with shoulder fired anti air weapons.

Still weird to see lone russian tanks with no support infantry. Easy pickings for the above.

This is a preview of what can happen in a war between 2 modern nations. Compared to outdated iraq/astan vs. the allies

Russia did go after and took out much of Ukraine's military infrastructure in the first two weeks of the war as well as gave Ukraine every chance for a negotiated peace to end this conflict.  However, since the US empire wants this war to continue and continues to escalate the situation by feeding money, mercenaries, and material to Ukraine, Russia will resort into the business of 21st century no-holds-barred war.

so much of the military infrastructure was taken out, and russia is going to no-holds-barred war, yet the ukraine is still predominantly not in russian control after 3 weeks?
asking for a friend...

No-holds-barred warfare still has not begun in Ukraine until Russia starts acting like the US imperial military similar to how they conducted war in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Syria.  Until then, all Russian-based reports suggest Russia is holding out for a diplomatic outcome, albeit, paying a steep price for it on the battlefield.

Apparently, upsetting war profiteering defense contractors is now grounds for censorship.

During the interview, host Laura Ingraham asked Gabbard why people were still demanding no fly zones, something that would likely cause World War III, when President Zelensky was “stepping back from his earlier NATO wishes and even demands?”

Gabbard responded by pointing out that Zelensky has said he’s willing to negotiate with Putin and “set this NATO membership thing aside.”

According to YouTube, such advocacy for peace is borderline content and needs to be hidden behind a warning screen. The video is also age-restricted.
