Ukrainian POW's are being bought and sold on the black market. Russian officers are selling them to Chechens, who are then trading them in prisoner swaps to recover their own troops. Ukrainian POWs are being bought and sold on a Russian black market, report says
One post: Russia on the back foot. Next post: Britain sounds the alarm, only has the manpower to fight Russia for two days.
Your western sources get their talking points straight from the Kremlin or Russian mil-bloggers. Ukrainian sources have tended to be much more honest than Russian sources.
Russia’s Poseidon underwater nuclear drone even more sinister than I realized. Initially, we were lead to believe that it would be used to destroy seaports by creating a nuclear tsunami per article below. But I’ve been reading that the intended purpose is to shadow our nuke subs, then when our subs launch ICBM’s the Russian drone destroys the ICBM’s and takes out our sub in one action. One nuclear-armed Poseidon torpedo could decimate a coastal city. Russia wants 30 of them.
As Ukraine collapses as all knowledgable people expected even before the war began, chemgstor will be giving lots of excuses for why Russia won. Why wait chemgator? Tell us now how Russia won.
He’ll never agree that Russia won. He’ll just say plucky Ukrainians thwart Putin from taking over Europe.
Chemgator should educate himself on what the George Soros agenda is in Ukraine. Then he should ask himself, "Why am I George Soros's stooge,?"
IF Russia wins (and they haven't won anything yet), it will be partly because of losers who support Russia's "right" to invade other countries for almost no reason at all. Losers who repeat the Kremlin's talking points and who refuse to support a country fighting for its freedom. Losers who are the equivalent of Hitler supporters in the U.S. in 1939/1940 (and those people did exist, if you did not know). People with a screw loose. People who accept the benefits of democracy and freedom while they undermine them. People not smart enough to understand the consequences of their foolish actions and ideas. Why don't you tell us about all of the benefits that a victorious Russia will bring to the world; how a "multi-polar world" with Chinese and Russian dictatorships in charge of two out of three poles will be much more positive for all of mankind? How the new Cold War will be so much more beneficial than the old Cold War. I'm having trouble understanding the thinking of mentally disabled people who would cheer for a more violent planet to live on. I answered your question; now you answer mine.
Russian military cemeteries are rapidly expanding in satellite photos. Amazing that Russia is giving so many of its dead troops a proper burial, after leaving many behind on the battlefield intentionally. Each cemetery is linked to a specific unit in the Russian army, so it is possible to see which units are taking massive casualties. The Russian military cemeteries laying bare the ‘huge cost’ of the Ukraine war
Russia's oligarchs are building their own private armies, ostensibly to support the Russian army in Ukraine. If they play their cards right, one of them might be able to use his army to "vote" Putin out of office, Russian-style. Putin better make sure that his private army is the biggest. This seems to be an indication of how desperate Putin is to secure funding for more troops in Ukraine. Why Russia’s Elite Are Building Their Very Own Private Armies
More on the "Chinese golf carts" that Russia has been using to get troops to the front lines. The golf carts are Chinese DesertCross 1000-3 all-terrain vehicles. Suntanning opportunities: yes. Armoring: no. Apparently, Russia is running low on armored personnel carriers and IFV's. Videos appear to show Russia using vulnerable golf cart-style vehicles to transport its troops to attack Ukrainian positions
Russian companies are going bankrupt to the tune of several hundred every month. There could be something wrong with the Russian economy . . . Russia's economy appears resilient, but companies are going bankrupt by the hundreds
“IF Russia wins (and they haven't won anything yet), it will be partly because of losers who support Russia's "right" to invade other countries for almost no reason at all.” I hardly know what to do with all this power.
Individually, you have no power. But collectively, when enough of you (and a major news network, and a deranged presidential candidate) get together and somehow sway enough Congressmen to commit treason, then it's a problem.
I barely know who George Soros is, other than a wealthy person who funds democrat causes (and I'm not a democrat). So, no, I don't support Soros or his "causes". Supporting Ukraine is something that any American with any sense should do. We pay for global security and ensure free trade throughout the world, and that will be far more difficult (and expensive) if Russia is allowed to take over Ukraine. I lived through the Jimmy Carter years--I know what double-digit inflation is like. But, truth be told, I would rather be Soros' stooge than Putin's stooge. You should ask yourself why you are willing to be Putin's stooge, which you clearly are.
