      Yeah, that involved massive Russian incompetence, though. It takes a while under a shitty kleptocratic dictatorship to build up to that, so the US military is bound to be a lot closer to how good it looks. The conventional war would basically end before it starts.

      We’d have to grind them down like the Taliban. (Which is what the article suggests)
