Ummm, seriously can you read? No, there’d be nuclear missiles 400 miles from Seattle, attacking American state, and ruling over American people against their will. How dumb do you have to be to think Ukraine is equivalent of this in a national security perspective?

Uh, but that wasn't even a major part of your substantive claims, because that argument still has several, several other things you claimed were going to happen that are not close to happening.

Don’t know the exact price of wheat, but it being high enough where many can’t afford it and there are mass riots in Europe, done.

Common sense. You don’t interrupt the supply lines like this and don’t expect things to be good. Again when y’all were all hung-go in September that everything was going and you were going well, while I was glad I told you all to hold your horses. I was clearly correct.
I want Ukraine to win, but this war wasn’t going to be resolved in a month as you people shitfaced on war basically thought. Again, I let that guide me through Russia’s reaction, and I was spot on. I’ve said for months it would be October when Russia escalated things, and I was correct even if people want to change the definition of that word.

Russian President Vladimir Putin claimed to have ordered the missile strikes on Ukrainian infrastructure in retaliation for a “terrorist act” at the Kerch Strait Bridge, likely in part to curry favor with the Russian pro-war nationalist camp that has been demanding such retaliation

Key Takeaways
Russian forces conducted massive, coordinated missile strikes on over 20 Ukrainian cities.
President Vladimir Putin claimed that the coordinated missile strikes were in retaliation for the explosion on the Kerch Strait Bridge, likely in part to curry favor with “pro-war” factions.
Russian and Belarusian ground forces remain unlikely to attack Ukraine from Belarusian territory to the north.
Ukrainian forces have likely liberated over 200 square kilometers of territory in western Luhansk Oblast as of October 10.
Russian forces continued unsuccessful attempts to regain recently lost territory in northwest Kherson Oblast while reinforcing nearby positions with damaged and hastily mobilized units.
Russian forces continued ground attacks in Donetsk Oblast.
Russian and occupation administration officials are setting conditions to move up to 40,000 residents out of Kherson Oblast to Russian-occupied Crimea and the Russian Federation.
Russian forces cannot supply mobilized forces, likely due to years of supply theft by contract soldiers and commanders

I said the ride would turn for the worst in October over desperation. I stand by my soft famine arguments. It’s going to be announced in 3-6 weeks from now. I stand by what I said. It’s going to make things much worse.

If you think you were "clearly correct" you have lost all grasp of reality. There is nothing on the sand table right now that indicates you were right and there will be any shift of momentum to Russia this month. There may be in the next 3 weeks but not now.

I'll admit that I appreciate the forthrightness. I'll be bumping this in three weeks.

I think there’s a line for risking war with a major power. Ukraine is not it, but Alaska would be. And again as much as y’all accuse me of loving Taiwan, Alaska is over it. Everything goes to shite with China invading Taiwan, but Russia invading Alaska can not be tolerated whatsoever. Yeah, I’d vote for war with Russia on that one.

It’s the 10th and it’s escalated. I think the true shite show begins in the next two months. No, this is an escalation to one degree or another I thought would happen. Just wait another few weeks.

Again, if you were 'clearly correct,' this should be reflected in very specific economic indicators. Post the fricking data for once or shut the frick up.

Oh frick off. The only people who thought this war was going to be swift was the Russians, who let us know that through their initial invasion. You keep wanting to treat random people on message boards as though they have power to change anything, and are remarkably reticent to call a spade a spade. It is some twisted logic.

1200 is about a 29% move from here. Almost impossible before Nov 1st unless there is a serious crisis.
Out of curiosity I checked the options trading on weat right now, and for Nov4 22 calls you basically could pay like $50 and get $200 back if it hits 1200 so the bet doesnt quite make sense to take in any event

Aviation guys, is it an SU25?
Definitely not a SU-25 Frogfoot.
My guess would be a SU-34 but I'm not really seeing the extra width in the cockpit area the 34 has, so maybe just a SU-27/31 variant in ground attack role.

Link me to your original posts on this, because I remember several very specific claims which you are not addressing here, oddly enough. Find the post where you made the claims so you don't go and change your history when it suits you.

Missile strikes which is what I feared. I’ve been vol all that Russia can outlast Ukraine and Europe. Granted the Ukrainians won’t give up given it’s their country, but my bet is Europe folds to one degree or another over the energy.

Yeah, but that was back in February and 2/3rds of this thread thought so as well. I’m glad it’s going poorly.

Yeah, but isn’t it weird I’ve been ranting about October for six months, and happens nearly right when the month starts? I’m sorry, you need Devil’s advocate here, and we’re all told to shut the frick up.
