Western observer called the generals of the US army "losers who have no victories over a strong adversary."

61

The western edition of Contra Magazin published material that touched upon the topic of numerous cases of American military invasion of foreign states. The author of the material, Marco Mayer, writes that the overwhelming majority of armed conflicts in which the US army has become a party in recent decades were such that Washington a priori understood its military advantage over the enemy. Mayer writes that wars and conflicts with the participation of US troops have recently turned into wars in the interests of billionaires.

A Western observer writes that hundreds of US military bases around the world speak of the ineradicable desire of the American authorities and the oligarchy to control the whole world, all financial flows and benefit from it.



From the material:

There are enough "hawkish" politicians in both the Republican and the Democratic parties. And they are constantly leading the US army to the point that somewhere it is necessary to invade under any pretext. The usual pretext is change of regimes "to democratic". Under this slogan they invaded Syria and Iraq. Now they are interested in regime change in Russia, Belarus, Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea and other "unfriendly" countries.

Marco Mayer writes that in this regard, it is customary to consider the American army to be the strongest and most combat-ready on the planet, but recently it has not really had a victorious practice in relation to an enemy comparable in strength.

A Western observer calls the current generals of the US Army "losers, who have not won a single victory over a strong adversary."

Contra Store:

And at the same time, these people dream of controlling the whole world militarily.

The author cites Afghanistan as an example. At one time in Washington, they declared about the "shameful outcome of the war for the Soviet Union," and now they themselves are trying to make a good face in a bad game, trying to withdraw troops from Afghanistan and declare their "victory". And besides, as Mayer notes, most of the territory of Afghanistan is again under the control of militants.

      And this is essentially how it is. "Victory" over Iraq as a result of the campaign and a victory cannot be called, the same is true with regards to the war in Afghanistan. The Americans could not keep these countries under their control and began to withdraw their troops. Is this really a victory? A defeat.

        the same goes for the war in Afghanistan. The Americans could not keep these countries


        Who could? The British fought three wars there in the 19th and 20th centuries. Are gone. Ours are gone.
        And the USA are good fellows - they bought it cheap. 10 thousand military - this is so, only to guard the airfields. And nafig they don't need the rest - let the locals fight among themselves, and the Americans will buy the winner. And again they will remain sitting at airfields in an important strategic area. Having the opportunity to work in Iran, Pakistan and Central Asia. Why do they need dear bloody mess? Their diplomats do a five-plus job in all wars.

            Marco is absolutely right: America as a whole, and all these formidable star generals-admirals, whose entire chests are in orders - order stocks, "losers, who have not a single victory over a strong enemy." They "dream of keeping the whole world under control," and even the much weaker Vietnamese, Afghans, Syrians, Iraqis have lost and are losing. There is impudence and pretensions, but there is no mind and strength. Moreover, they themselves do not like to fight, but basely substitute the aborigines.

          It is a big mistake to think that if the eastern people took your money, then you bought it. No - he just took your money. That he absolutely does not oblige him to anything .. Why not take something when they give it?

            Not so primitive. Afghan motley, a bunch of specific "princes", warring among themselves. Anyone who seizes power in Kabul has enemies on the ground. A promise not to support them is enough.
            The Americans behave this way everywhere - they do not allow any of the forces to gain an absolute victory.

          To be more precise, ours did not leave! And they brought it out thanks to the traitor "Marked Bear"! The process of setting Afghanistan at that end, the existing community of tribes (sometimes not childishly warring) stopped and even worsened with the help of the Americans, which is in general inherent in the Americans in all conflicts and wars - "divide and rule!" Smoldering hotbeds are the key to success, including for the American economy. The military strategy is aimed only at making a profit both inside the country (military budget) and in external aggression - wars of conquest with the maximum extermination of the population and the export of "booty". These guys are fighting only with militarily low-tech countries, hence the strategy and experience gained as a result of such wars. An example is simple - "let's strike at the DPRK", but ... having received a warning about the possible delivery of strikes by the DPRK to the United States, they quickly retreated! They simply did not succeed in robbing, and remembering the Korean war in the 1950s, they were also frightened of the possible negative consequences for themselves.

If we consider that running into the attack and shedding a sea of ​​blood is the key to success ... that is, the methods are more economically effective. destroy the enemy without even engaging in fire contact.

        We achieved our goals, yes. China kicked them out of Africa, Russia and Turkey rule in Syria, the Middle East is completely lost, the Far East is also lost, Europe is in confrontation with the United States - from 2% of the budget for NATO to the abandonment of the F-35 and the demonstrative flight from Iraq of all allies in general after the very first shelling of the base in Iraq ... Even in the backyard there are anti-American regimes again, which could not be thrown off - Venezuela and Chile confirm.
        Is this where they achieved their goals? Iraqi oil and gold reserves are great, but it was there that they lost the Middle East - what kind of authority can the United States have while Iran is shelling it with impunity and they are running from their own bases?

    I would not be in a hurry to call American generals losers.
    firstly, you need to be able to use the advantage in strength
    secondly, they still have great limitations - the motivation of soldiers and a very high sensitivity to losses.
    They may not be super generals, but most of them have limited experience,
    almost all of them had practical training in one way or another.
    Yes, they do not have high-profile victories like Stalingrad, or the capture of Vienna, but they should not be considered completely clumsy either. In addition, the highly developed intelligence, communications and logistics in the US troops allow many miscalculations to be corrected in time.
