In the good old days when you typed into Google, French military victories and pressed the ‘I’m feeling lucky’ button, the response would be, ‘Don’t you mean French military losses.’ The same could soon be said of NATO. Let’s face it, if NATO countries couldn’t even open a can of whoop-arse on the Taliban with their pimped-up Toyota Hiluxes, rusty AK-47s, and illiterate dirt farmers in sandals, how were they going to defeat the Russians? To be fair, it’s not surprising we didn’t see it coming.
