Didn’t hear these people talking about ecological disasters when Nordstream was dumping half a million tons of methane into the atmospere. Ironically, the same people who blew it up almost certainly push the C02 footprint scam to try and steal your money to pay for more wars.
It's ironic you say that, since the Ukrainian regime literally embraces the Nazis. They have SS on their helmets. I want their corrupt regime to fall, the US and NATO are using Ukrainian lives as pawns in their game of global domination and I want it to stop. I've wanted peace all along, but the west did not allow that to happen. Now the best option for everyone is a quick end, using conventional weapons.
Russia's military machine is broken. Their leaders are incompetent. The military industry supplying the machine is very corrupt. In contrast, Ukraines leaders are showing a very high level of strategy. And their military industry is developing new weapons, such as long range jet drones, that Russia has not been able to stop. The only way for Russia to win, maybe, is to go all in. Put the entire country on full war mode. Draft everyone available, and convert all of their factories to manufactoring war supplies. Russia is running very low on large equipment. Ukraine has captured Russian artillery guns about 100 years old, built before WW2. Even if Putin goes all in, I doubt the west will let him win.
This is a lie that Russia spreads with no evidence. Most Ukrainian soldiers do not have Nazi symbols on their helmets. Ukraine is a very tolerant country and as such, they don't have rules or policies that prevent people from supporting anybody. Even racists. Ukraine has no more of a Nazi problem than the US. Tolerance allows people to be stupid as well. You have advocated for allowing aggressive Russian empire building. That's not peace. Allowing them to take Crimea only encouraged Russia to try and take Kyiv and the rest of Ukraine. That's why we're in this situation.
There is a unit in the Russian army, where many in that unit have nazi tattoos. I do not have a link at my fingertips. But next time I run into them, I will post a link to the pictures of Russian soldiers with nazi tattoos.
Once again, you have no idea what you're talking about. Ukraine's military uniform is littered with Nazi symbolism. The current regimes embrace of Nazism and war criminals like Bandara was part of the original tension that lead to to people in the eastern regions wanting to separate for Ukriane. Heck, even the NY times reports on it. Putin has stated that outsting these Nazi's is one of the key objectives. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/05/world/europe/nazi-symbols-ukraine.html
Well well well. Looks like Ukraine has Russia right where they want them. This is where the ghost of Kyiv makes his move…
Once we're all dead, let's meet up in the Akashic records and you can admit that Jonny and me were right about everything.
I think both armies are in the same situation. Not enough men and and resources to both defend all areas while also carrying out an offensive somewhere. Ukraine has just shifted an additional 2000 troops to the Povrovsk area.
Last night, Ukraine launched its largest number of long range drones into Russia. Over 100. Energy and oil depots were hit. Many around Moscow. Payback time.
A guy on X posted this today, apparently not realizing it was from 2022, just before the invasion. But it's kind of interesting to look back and see how this group of retired military tried to warn Putin of his folly. "Retired Russian Colonel-General Leonid Ivashov, the head of the All-Russian Officers Assembly, has gone public with a statement that calls for Russian President Vladimir Putin to resign over the confrontation involving Ukraine. To remove any doubt as to his message, Ivashov, 78, followed the public statement with an interview on a liberal Russian media outlet, Echo Moskvy, insisting that he was speaking in the name of the assembly of retired and reservist Russian officers which he heads. " "To be clear, Ivashov believes that NATO is a hostile power, but his experience has taught him that the NATO/U.S. threat is under control and no external threat is imminent from the Western powers. The massive buildup of Russian troops on the Ukraine and Belarus borders, therefore, is not to deal with a threat from the West. Rather, it is to divert attention from the internal health, demographic challenges, living-standards collapse and pervasive corruption that the Russian citizenry is suffering under the mismanagement of an incompetent Putin regime. " Ivashov’s solution: Fire Putin if he can’t be forced to resign and, if necessary, put him in prison for his “criminal policy of provoking war.” https://thehill.com/opinion/interna...ls-criticism-may-signal-a-larger-problem-for/
I guess I better post something or this thread will drop off the map. “I spoke to Blinken two days ago, and he's traveling with his counterpart from the UK to Kyiv to essentially tell them that they will allow Ukraine to strike Russia with ATACMS missiles,” US House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul tells Axios reporter Julie Grace Brufke. However, @Tatarigami_UA Great news if true. But honestly, I don't think it will have much impact, as Russia has moved many of its valuable assets deeper. Per my analysis, Ukraine urgently needs basic equipment to rebuild its brigades, like IFVs, artillery, shells, mortars, medevacs, tanks, coms, etc. My own take is they need both. There are still plenty of targets besides airports they can hit with those rockets. But they definitely need more equipment for the brigades they have recently mobilized. Zelensky told the West this months ago. Also problems with Europe not supplying parts for worn out artillery in a timely manner. On the positive side, Ukrain has developed a technique where they can drop burning thermite on russian trenches and they attacked Moscow airport (and other targets all over russia) last night with drones. I don't know if it has been mentioned here but Ukraine is now manufacturing their own powerful long range missile/drone.
