Holly Williams speaks with an American fighter who has since left the front lines of Ukraine to deal with his PTSD. In southern Ukraine, the fighter who refers to himself by his call sign, Elvis, says he repeatedly witnessed Russian forces using white phosphorus munitions against them. He admits that he's profoundly traumatized and fears one of his former comrades could commit suicide because of what they went through together.

@Michael-fz8wq I never said I wouldn't be willing to fight in the right circumstances. I did 3 tours of duty myself; I'm not averse to combat or fighting. However, war is a costly way, in both material and human terms, to solve problems. Moreover, warfare often creates the hatred and hardened hearts that lead to the chronic distrust between countries. It almost guarantees that you'll pass on the same problems to the next generation. If you're going to choose fighting, you best ensure there is a strong moral imperative you're defending. To do otherwise only leaves countries with shattered economies, and vets as well as the local populace with fractured minds.

Also, the Russians did not allow groups to train in their territory on high jacking aircraft and killing American civilians. We have never had a problem of Russian terrorism in the US. In fact, they alerted our intelligence agencies to the Boston Marathon bombers' plans. There are many differences between these wars, even if there are some interesting comparisons.

The soldier did not see the burning alive of people in Odessa in 2014 and did not witness the killing of 14K Donbass citizens including 2K children between 2014 and 2022 .... so naturally he thinks there is a mad aggressor and that brutality is one side only. He also does not know that the fomenting of hatred between both sides was master-minded and its fires stoked much closer to home than he'll ever know .... how chronically wrong it is to read only one side of the story....

He did not have such a need, because if you could determine that you were being attacked with white phosphorus, then you can assume that you are already dead. And especially if you consider that in almost every such interview they talk about white phosphorus, then we can assume that this is not a story about the war, but about propaganda. He just tells how he was asked, there's nothing wrong with that, everyone is engaged in propaganda.

Still largely a counter-insugency. In Ukraine its a toe to toe battle with an adversary that outguns you with no air support, no overwhelming firepower to call upon if you're in danger of being overrun and inadequate supply. I suspect fighting in Ukraine would be a rude awakening even for a Vietnam vet. A Korean vet may have experienced something more like it, but even then a US soldier had more lavish support and infrastructure. Its hard to imagine an experience a US serviceman would have gone through that compares. Bastogne, Iwo Jima or Meuse-Argonne would probably be the closest, but being on the receiving end of Russia's massed artillery barrages in the summer would have been a horrific experience like being in the trenches of WW1.

The US use white phosphorus in 2004 against Al- Qaeda, a terrorist group that repeatedly beheads other ethnic groups and religious groups, tortures, rapes and makes children suicide bombers. Yet the US still considers it wrong and has for almost a decade claimed it wouldn’t. Russia on the other hand has used it hundreds of times in Ukraine where there are no terrorist besides the Russians! I am not sure what the point of your bot comment is other than to say what about the US.
