Anyone that uses terms like liberal and conservative when talking about military operations are complete idiots and have never been or affiliated with any military or security agency any where in the world but simple minded buffoons.

I think he wants to troll but can't separate his troll persona from the world he actually wants, thereby undermining his troll from the beginning. He's definitely not smart enough to understand satire, and he's too wound up in his emotions that he ends up gaying up every thread he's in. He needs to get offline and go do something useful.

There you go right there, you just said it yourself! FORCE Ukrainians to be and speak Russian. That’s ok with you? To force a sovereign country nowhere near the size of strength of Russia just because they are bigger? You can tell you never served a day for any nation, American or Russian. You’re just an unhappy little frickstick of a troll who is probably living in your mother’s basement. How dare the Ukrainians have the audacity to defend themselves against an invasion right?

Mainly an Atlantic Bluenose thing. Then again Halifaxers will put it on anything as long as they can wash it down with a couple of Keith's.

We need to force Ukraine to go to the table with Russia and throw in the towel. Save more Ukraine life's. We should not send another dime towards military action.


Aside from the obvious reasons this is dumb, how does one go from we shouldn’t be involved and need to quit spending our money on their problem to we should literally tell them what’s best for them and force them to surrender their sovereignty and doom them to totalitarianism?

ISW update

Key Takeaways

The Russian Ministry of Defense stated that the leadership of its central and southern groups of forces fighting Ukraine has changed, confirming ISW’s previous assessment that the Russian high command is restructuring the leadership of operations in Ukraine.

Ukrainian intelligence officials emphasized that Belarus remains highly unlikely to join the war in Ukraine.

Ukrainian sources confirmed that Russian forces have taken full control of Severodonetsk and are fighting within Lysychansk.

Russian forces made measured gains to the north and southeast of Bakhmut.

Russian forces continued unsuccessful attempts to advance southeast of Izyum toward Slovyansk.

Russian forces continued positional battles north of Kharkiv City.

Russian forces attempted to strengthen their defensive lines and recapture lost positions on the Southern Axis.

Reportedly* one of the first victims of US-supplied Ukrainian M142 HIMARS MRLs, a Russian base in Donbas after being struck by HIMARS’s guided rockets.

video...

Video up on Twitter, supposedly the aftermath of a HIMARS strike. It's apparently the owner of a Russian vehicle trying to figure out if it will run. In the background you can see a lot of destruction. The site was a school that the Russians are said to have converted to a command post. People in the Twitter thread think it was a Tungsten shrapnel warhead based on the damage to the vehicle, which is secondary to what it did to the command post. Interesting.

HIMARS aftermath

ETA: Same video as cypher.

Baw checking out his busted up UAZ Patriot. There was actually talk about bringing them to the US in the last couple of years. I thought it was stupid but there might be more takers than I thought based on this thread. Great way to virtue signal your Putin passion.

There is a larger lesson than the damage done to this vehicle, if you watch the video closely.
The issue is how many times this type of attack can be replicated, and how quickly.
This is devastating and efficient.

They speak Russian already. Ironic that this comes after a spate of posts calling me "dumb".

Both languages are in the Slavic family but there are significant differences and while someone that only speaks Russian could have a stilted conversation with someone that only speaks Ukrainian it isn't like a Canadian and an American speaking English or even a Spaniard and Brazillian speaking Spanish and Portuguese.

The situation appears to be rapidly deteriorating IVO Severodonetsk and Lysychansk. More reporting will definitely have to confirm this, however it is believable due to the announcement of a Ukrainian withdrawal from Severodonetsk just over a day ago.

Don't know what to make of it if anything but starting to see some people trying to connect this

quote:

President of #Lithuania: The country will not make concessions to #Russia on #Kaliningrad.

Earlier, Lukashenko called the "isolation" of this region "actually a declaration of war." LINK


To Putins 23:00 fast trip to the Kremlin
quote:

??????| The procession with Vladimir Putin arrived at the Kremlin at 23:00 this evening, an unusual phenomenon.

Usually these night visits happen in important cases.

Discussions or measures could take place soon after Lukashenko's statements about Lithuania. LINK

I specifically chose Portugues Brasileiro over continental Portuguese because it is a further step away from Castilian.
