Sigh. I've ack'd this.

No, you haven't. All you've done is point out the ways in which those smaller militaries that managed to get a country with a larger military to withdraw weren't exactly the same as Ukraine's, but you haven't "ack'd" the point that these were all cases in which the larger military withdrew despite not being driven out. And none of the differences you've identified in the smaller militaries are germane to the larger countries' decisions to withdraw.

If the mujahedin could force Russia to withdraw, it's certainly possible that the Ukrainian army can, too.

I find that the liberals on this board tend to ignore opinions they don't like and pretend they've never heard them before. In this thread I chose the Hammer Of Repetition to drive home the point.

But....why? No one was ignoring your point. No one was pretending they hadn't heard it before. In fact, everyone's complaining to you that you keep saying it over and over again. They were just pointing out to you that it wasn't relevant to the point of disagreement. So why do you keep repeating it?
