    I mean, what really makes the claim believable is that if you said “incompetent army” almost everyone would think of the Russian army. It’s exactly the level of professionalism I would’ve expected of them.

      Now… yes. A few years ago? No.

      This is actually good… and really really bad at the same time. We now know that Russia really isn’t a military threat… But… that means that they’ll have to fall back to stupid shit like WMDs much faster if something was to actually break out that wasn’t just a “3 day special operation” against what amounts to a relatively weak country (no offense to any Ukranians in the room).
