Fact 13: If the Soviet Union couldn't vanquish poor, smaller Afghanistan over 10 years where they lost 15,000 soldiers, how can smaller Russia beat Ukraine with ever increasing weapons when they already lost well over 100,000 soldiers (many more wounded) in 1 year? I only see Russian casualties increasing and their most trained soldiers and leaders are decimated.

Fact 14: How, where and how many munitions are made would be the last piece of information civilians would be privy to since it is a military advantage to not say publicly or to say the opposite (subterfuge).

Fact 15: Taiwan is a high tech scorpion for China and would probably unleash a nanobot cloud or some sort of autonomous weapons that would make the old warfare seem quaint. China may win but they will greatly regret it therefor they won't bother. No advantage.

Fact 16: NATO intelligence gathering exceeds Russia's and they know what Russia is going to do before most of them do. That's a huge advantage. That's how a depot of cruise missiles in Crimea were just destroyed for example.
