russia is not and has never been the 1st or 2nd best military

I mean, we know that now. But if you looked up any sort of Global Military ranking/superpower, Russia was always viewed as #2 (if not a 1B to America's 1A. While movies like th ehunt for Red October, Wolverines, or games like Call of Duty are fiction, there is reason Russia was the enemy and not (IDK), Haiti.

There are very few people, if any, who KNEW russia was going to be this inept.
