you no it

first

Just Russian

Russian soldiers protect own country (mothers , childrens…) and it is Very strong power. The USA (I respect and LOVE this country) military build from people all over the World…what expect? Just my thoughts….

Equalizer

Our American Green Berets are still better than them

Apples to oranges. That’s like the UK saying the SAS is better than some infantry grunt. Who cares?

Why even argue on who’s better? Each opposing side will only talk nationalistic. I see zero rationale sense on arguing a dead point and subject.

russian soldiers are hardcore… thats why they couldnt invade finland in the 1940′s… by the way back then russia had more soldiers than finland had population… and the finns used the same amount of ammo during the whole war that the russkies used every single day… but i guess they are hardcore… but i agree with you guys… americans are friggin fat!

Russia is a force to be reckoned with…. Putin is dragging Russia out from the wreckage of the collapse of the USSR, and building it back up. While everyone’s worrying about China, Russia is steadily strengthening itself.

As for the comments about the Winter War with the Finns next door… I’m a Finn myself and am very proud. The Finns employed some truly brilliant strategies. But a good portion of the Russian’s defeat was brought about by the fact Stalin killed the bulk of his officer corps just prior to the beginning of the war. They had no experienced commanders!

It’s actually a real testament to the strength of the Russian people and the Russian soldier that they were able to kick the Nazis out, even in the face of miserable mismanagement from above.

Sorry for the rant. God Bless.

As a citizen of the USA, I clearly am impressed with the will power, strength and pride of the Russian people in the protection of their mother country during the Great Patriotic War in spite of the destructive decisions of Josef Stalin. And I believe the Russian people should find pride in their soldiers and the training they must endure. But I find sadness when I read from both sides of the “power of our country” when the most crucial issue is to develop a lasting and respectful peace between our two countries.

russian soldiers are hardcore…. blah blah blah… these pictures are not from from a regular boot camp. the soldiers in the photos are either vdv (paratroopers) or omon (think of it as swat) or something else like that.

According to Deadliest Warrior, Spetsnaz slightly edges out the Green Berets.

As a lifelong martial artist and former soldier from a old line military family, I have had the opportunity to meet warriors from all nations. Believe me, every nation breeds their own version of tough warriors. Every true warrior would fight ferociously for his Motherland. Don't let too many Hollywood movies con the average Joe in believing the "America is No. 1" B.S. Many true warriors in different places, you will never know or ever meet — but they exist. Only a true master (over one's life — not others) is respectful and humble before any warrior tribe or clan. We have much to learn from each other instead of spouting useless childish "we're better" nonsense. Russia is the only major nation that was invaded brutally and yet was never conquered — ponder on that alone. America is a baby nation compared to the old line histories and traditions of the older nations. Iraq and Iran are ancient civilizations as en example. Without their high tech and massive firepower capabilities, the US military could just as easily be defeated as any small nation. Modern technology and weaponry has actually made lazier more undisciplined soldiers. Anyone can be taught to pull a trigger — but to develop combat skills in every arena besides guns and tanks requires more years of dedicated monk-like training and discipline. I've met them from different nations, China, Russia, Indonesia, Philippines, Spain, France, and yes even our good ole USA has some et al. But remember one thing and you'll never be conned or confused — we are indeed all brothers and sisters born of the same Grand Creator and our great Mother Earth. Wars and conflicts are devised by hidden controllers of the matrix construct to turn nations against one another for their benefit. And it is very easy to do — pointing the collective thoughts of the mass sheeple in one direction. Think for your selves, people. Break the spell!
