I think the Norks biggest worry would be EVER getting their troops back. They may have to send 200K more just to bring them home at gunpoint.  :2funny:
On the other hand, getting them back would let them tell their relatives that a war zone in the Ukraine is better than living in peace in North Korea.

Man, I yearn for the good old days, when "Baghdad Bob" would tell us a straight-up lie BUT we could see through the lie to understand what he was really saying.

In other news, an interesting article today on the possible downside of unqualified disbursements of weapons to our Ukrainian allies...

Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

Wow that is an absolute ass-load of soldiers.  If the report is accurate, what could NK possibly gain by throwing a bunch of bodies into the meat grinder?  Brownie points from a dictator who by all accounts has single digit years left to live?

It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.  War endures.  As well ask men what they think of stone.  War was always here.  Before man was, war waited for him.  The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.  That is the way it was and will be.  That way and not some other way.

If they made nothing but WWII games, I'd be perfectly content.  Hypothetical matchups from alternate history 1980s, asymmetrical US-bashes-some-3rd world guerillas, or minor wars between Upper Bumblescum and outer Kaboomistan hold no appeal for me.

I guess it's sort of nice that the word "tactical" seems to refer to some kind of seriousness during your moments of mental clarity.

Russia gets grinder meat and hardware. Norks get some sanction relief. Win-win for the two parties.
Extended PRK maneuvers/exercises on the border though could stop this IMO.

Of course this would result in a quid pro quo for Ukraine somewhere. Cuba?

Ahh the possibilities.

Id be really really surprised if nk soldiers go to russia at all.  whatever happened to the 10k syrians that were supposed to be on the front lines?

for the first time a full squadron of F-22s will do a rotation in Poland.

Good!
We should have claimed they had been flying over Poland for months and they just couldn't be detected.

no need, our F-35s have been doing that for months.  :bd:
and by our I mean the USAF and NATO.  <:-)

Absolutely it is.
I just think about the casualties and their families. Unaware pawns in situation caused by sociopaths and a kleptocratic government.
