War in Ukraine

Serves the ski's right. Shame that the Ukraine could not keep part of the fleet back in the days of Soviet dissolution.

 

uft - Can't agree more, OVER-RATED and Mr. Putin and his military look like a bunch of jackasses.

 

He might be relieved not having to worry about a Ukrainian sniper's bullet finding its way to his brain.

 

Thank you chem, thank you.

Just an FYI, I ain't from anywhere close to that part of the world but my son and I are proudly flying the Ukrainian flag and colors.

Zelenski will or should win a Nobel prize / Time and Newsweek man of the Year.

I can't think of any CLEARER example of good vs evil since Bin Laden, POL-POT or Der Fuhrer.

Putin is such a fool. He will LOSE eventually, and hoepfully his LIFE from an internal assasin. He has led Russia into PERDITION.

I harbor no animis against the Russian people, they are getting SCREWED too. This is nothing more than Russian Imperialism, 75 years after that shit went out of style.

 

NO WE CAN'T

Much like Vietnam, the US literally WON every engaement, militarily in NAM and Afganistan down to the Company engagement level. I DO NOT BLAME the US military for political blundering. They did their job.

Conversely, Russia's military got it's ass kicked all over Afganistan and that same scenerio is playing out in the Ukraine.

Putin and his bloodlust will FAIL in this conflict.

There is a good REASON the Soviet Union disintegrated. Herr Putin WILL FAIL in his assinine attempt to reconstitute "Soviet" Hegemony over Eastern Europe.

 

Pootie pie is a coward hiding behind his nuclear arsenal. He knows damn well that in a conventional fight Russia would get its ass kicked. Big bad russians killing women, children, the elderly...they must be so incredibly proud. eff em.

 

They learned their methods of warfare from the Mongolian Hordes who taught them the entire "rape and pillage" rulebook firsthand.

 

I don't think the US delivered those until a couple of weeks ago. It had been a key missing ingredient in Ukraine's arsenal.

 

If it was a Neptune Missile they are made in Ukraine

 

It's hilarious watching the flag hop around avoiding the spotlights.

"Biden administration expands intel sharing with Ukraine on Donbas and Crimea, officials say

From CNN's Katie Bo Lillis

US President Joe Biden's administration is expanding its intelligence sharing with Ukraine to allow more information on Russian activities in eastern Ukraine and Crimea to be shared, as the US believes that Russia is shifting its strategy to concentrate on the south and the east, according to US officials and another source familiar with the matter.

New guidelines, put in place over the past several weeks, have loosened rules for intelligence sharing, specifically in regions that were under Russian control prior to the 2022 invasion.

“With the shift in Russia’s military efforts in southern and eastern Ukraine, we modified our guidelines to provide operators added clarity to enable intelligence sharing with Ukraine to defend themselves in what is sure to be a dynamic battle space,” a US intelligence official told CNN. "

 

When you have a kleptocracy and you value your secret police more than the military this is what you get. I am beginning to wonder about their nuclear umbrella. It could just be a mirage, but if it isn't it still deters.

 

Well, they didn’t learn enough then. The Mongols did their raping and pillaging after winning the battles not while losing them.

 

Look...another Nazi per Russia & Putin supporters.

 

I wonder if the scum who fired the rocket will get a medal in Moscow. Such valor!

 

It's still floating but very heavily damaged

 

And they've been flying jets with nukes over their airspace already. THAT'S a huge factor in why they want to join NATO. Hard to threaten with something you're already doing.

"Opposition leader Navalny calls on West to launch huge social media campaign against "Putin's insane regime"

From CNN's Tim Lister

Russian opposition figure Alexey Navalny has issued a series of tweets urging a new front of "truth and free information" against Russian President Vladimir Putin, whom he calls the "war criminal from the Kremlin."

Navalny, who is serving a nine-year sentence in a Russian penal colony after being convicted of fraud last month, said in his tweets that "truth and free information hit Putin's insane regime just as hard as Javelins," the US anti-tank weapons being used by Ukrainian forces against Russian armor.

Navalny said the Kremlin has lied in asserting there is widespread public support in Russia for the war, asking: "What kind of sociology is there even to talk about when both the question 'Do you support the war in Ukraine?' and the answer 'no' could result in 15 years of imprisonment for the sociologist and the respondent respectively?"

He pointed to criminal cases brought against Russian individuals, saying that one man was arrested in Moscow for standing in the street holding Leo Tolstoy's "War and Peace." "
