    Default Crippled Russia running out of weapons as embarrassing war ending looms

    .

    Russia is running out of weapons, an expert has claimed, saying that the war has reached a "tipping point".

    Chemical weapons expert, Hamish de Bretton-Gordon said that Putin's military is "shockingly inept". He claimed that the army is "down to low stocks of weapons" as a result of sanctions on Russia, meaning that few countries will sell Putin "sophisticated weaponry". Speaking to Express.co.uk, Mr de Bretton-Gordon said: "The challenge is going to be that the most sophisticated weaponry requires some pretty high tech and high tech is sanctioned.

    "The precision strike missiles, the cruise missiles, all this - they're getting fewer and far between.

    "I think on this sophisticated weaponry, he's probably down to low stocks.

    "He will have a lot of artillery shells and a lot of tank shells, but those tanks and artillery are just being decimated by the Ukrainians.

    The Russians are world pariahs now with their war crimes in Ukraine.

    Their military appears to be inept and morale low.

    The tipping point indeed. Not good news for the Russian Federation.

    The Russian army isn't exactly motivated to go kill Ukranians, you know?

    They lied to them when they were bombing places saying it was just another exercise, but there were civilians in those places.

    It's a bad deal all the way around. The Ukrainians are motivated, that's their home.

    The Russian people don't have a good record establishing decent governments, this going back centuries.

    We seem to now be emulating them, unfortunately.

    Biden was running against the diseased orangutan, breakdown lane.

    Anybody who voted for the latter should be humanely euthanized immediately. All 74,000,000+ of them.

    Biden was obviously not my primary choice. He's got the balls of a field mouse. Why hasn't Manchin met up with a drone?

    I would have liked Bernie or Liz Warren much more, but America has the balls of a field mouse too.

    The broad is almost my age and has more balls than all the men put together with the possible exception of Bernie.

    I'd take her in a minute. I can even overlook her Oklahoma accent because she's that good.
    Given her background, it's a miracle, so I guess that there's hope for everybody--if they've got the 170 IQ,

    I would not have voted for Bernie or Liz Warren. I would have probably voted for a 3rd party candidate.

    How can a third party candidate do ANYTHING with no senators, representatives, or even state governors and legislatures?

    I think we do need more ideologically specific, not generalist, multiple parties, but they must be built from the ground up, not the White House down.

    Above all, I disrespect those looking for moderate solutions to radical problems. America has a balls crisis.
