ZB MIRRORS MY POSITION, ON UKRAINE
But I extend it to a general rule: a well trained militia with RPGs and man portable anti armor missiles can neither be conquered, nor can conquer others. If you possess nuclear weapons and a well armed and trained militia consisting of every able bodied soul then you are a threat to your own government alone, not to any other; and you are unconquerable by both your government and others.
One is free only if he not require permission.
—“I feel that we should make it clear to the Ukrainians that if they are determined to resist, as they say they are and seemingly they are trying to do so (albeit not very effectively), we will provide them with anti-tank weapons, hand-held anti-tank weapons, hand-held rockets—weapons capable for use in urban short range fighting. This is not an arming of Ukraine for some invasion of Russia. You don’t invade a country as large as Russia with defensive weaponry. But if you have defensive weaponry and you have access to it and know it’s arriving, you’re more likely to resist.”—
