There's a reason US doesn't give Ukraine long-range missiles. Because it's not that "unlikely" as we think.

Even the possibility of nuclear war was unfathomable 2 years ago. Now it's a normal daily topic on the news.

Brother, I can tell you were born in 1992, because you are acting like this is some new thing. There are several near-misses that are not widely known because they were only recently declassified, but there are several examples. One would think you wouldn't be so moved by media portrayals, but alas, they know what sells.

Nah, I'm training for a triathlon at the moment, and would absolutely kick you in the pussy. But imagine thinking that echinacea (which you didn't spell correctly) and goldenrod are preventative measures for nearly ubiquitous bacteria which are part of normal skin flora in the nasopharynx and the oropharynx. Not surprisingly, you seem quite dim.

You obviously know little about Urkaine's resources and potential from a commercial standpoint. No one is interested in WWIII, especially any Russian who knows the ineptitude of their technology.

The new crop of hellions is really low intellect. We had much better propagandists as recently as a month ago.

It’s pretty pathetic when a Ukrainian anti-air missile failing to intercept a Russian missile kills a couple poles and thats what causes a spike in propagandist activity

They're paralyzed by fear of nuclear war. The emotion is understandable. The reaction is pathetic.

That's a subset, but there are others for whom the Russian side appeals because the Russians have deliberately and explicitly tried to make inroads with Western sub-populations in an analogous way to how we approached Eastern Bloc populations during the Cold War. They've long cultivated the far left, but in recent years the far-right has been a growth market for them. The more illiberal and dissident you are, the tastier what Russia is selling tends to be.

Key Takeaways

Russian sources and proxy officials are flagrantly touting the forced adoption of Ukrainian children into Russian families.

Ukrainian sources continued to clarify the damage caused by the massive November 15 Russian missile strike across Ukraine.

The Russian information space largely followed the official Kremlin framing of the missile strike on Polish territory as a Western provocation.

Wagner Group financer Yevgeny Prigozhin is continuing to establish himself as a central figure in the pro-war ultranationalist community likely in pursuit of ambitious political goals.

Russian sources claimed that Ukrainian forces continued counteroffensive operations in the directions of Svatove and Kreminna.

Russian forces continued ground attacks near Bakhmut and Avdiivka, and in western Donetsk Oblast.

Ukrainian forces continued targeting Russian forces and logistics nodes in southern Ukraine.

Multiple reports indicate that the morale and psychological state of Russian forces in the Luhansk and Donetsk oblasts are exceedingly low.

Russian officials continued their efforts to replace proxy officials in occupied territories with Russian officials, forcibly relocate residents, and integrate occupied areas with Russia.
