I heard that this whole misunderstanding comes down to NATO ignoring Putin's pleas for no ICBMs planted at his back door...  Is that remotely true?

I thought those were long removed as part of the nuclear reduction treaty

The accuracy of this thing at 33km is insane.

I'd almost feel sorry for the russians if they weren't Orcs.

I can see where Russians might not want to fight, since they are invading another country. I would be surprised if someone in the country being invaded did not want to fight.

"The war in Ukraine is consuming an enormous amount of munitions and depleting allied stockpiles," NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said Monday. "The current rate of Ukraine’s ammunition expenditure is many times higher than our current rate of production. This puts our defense industries under strain."

How about not depleting NATO stockpiles and we keeping them just in case NATO needs to actually defend itself

The logic is probably that by withholding the ammo, you guarantee that NATO will have to defend itself.

You can expend your ammo on russians in Ukraine, or you can expend your ammo on russians in Poland.  The difference being whether American troops get shot at while you're doing it.  I’d rather expend the ammo on the russians in Ukraine.

Besides, the russians are expending all their resources in Ukraine too.  Plus the dead bodies.

We’ll make more weapons.  However long that takes, we still have 1000x the production capacity that russia has.  The russians don't even have the micro chips to replenish their arms.  They are ripping chips out of refrigerators and crazy stuff.  In a production war, they are unarmed.

With any luck, russia will break from the losses in Ukraine and never get to Poland to shoot at US troops.  And putin will end up getting the Mussolini treatment.  Upside down on a meat hook.

Good of Iran to step up and help with the munitions.
