British Defence Intelligence
UPDATE ON UKRAINE
02 December 2022
INTELLIGENCE UPDATE
Russia's withdrawal from the west bank of the Dnipro River last month has provided the Ukrainian Armed Forces with opportunities to strike additional Russian logistics nodes and lines of communication.
This threat has highly likely prompted Russian logisticians to relocate supply nodes, including rail transfer points, further south and east. Russian logistics units will need to conduct extra labour-intensive loading and unloading from rail to road transport.Road moves will subsequently still be vulnerable to Ukrainian artillery as they move on to supply Russian forward defensive positions.
Russia's shortage of munitions (exacerbated by these logistics challenges) is likely one of the main factors currently limiting Russia's potential to restart effective, large scale offensive ground operations.

interesting interview of a Brit who went to Ukraine.
Warning, "Soldierly Strong Language" Ha!

Yep he’s definitely Russian he hates football and he loves gay Greco-Roman wrestling where he can keep his face in another guy’s nutsack 24/7. We’ve seen how the Russians like to have gay sex hour in their trenches. Russians love that shite they are just a filthy, brainwashed group of people who like to suck each other off. Also if you aren’t a Russian troll then why did you just create your profile and came straight here to talk down on Ukraine? You gave yourself away Ivan. Hey how does it feel getting picked on by one of your smaller former Soviet bloc countries like a little bitch? It’s pretty funny seeing the great gear y’all outfit your troops with now. I mean who wouldn’t want a tampon as bandage, am I right? I’m sure those “body armor” plates made of foam will stop spitball at least. You’re a joke just like your country is. Go get in a trench with the rest of your comrades and y’all play hide the pickle with each other.

On another note, Ukraine is officially producing it’s own 152 mm shells and they are already on the front lines. Good news for their old Soviet howitzers.

Snowden should no longer be considered a "whistleblower". His lawyer says he's taken an oath to Russia and has accepted a Russian passport. He's a Russian now.

Edward Snowden, a former National Security Agency contractor who leaked information about U.S. surveillance programs, swore an oath of allegiance to Russia and has collected his Russian passport, his lawyer told state media on Friday.
“Edward received a Russian passport yesterday and took the oath in accordance with the law,” lawyer Anatoly Kucherena said, according to Russia’s Interfax news agency. “He is, of course, happy, thanking the Russian Federation for the fact that he received citizenship,” he continued. “And most importantly, under the Constitution of Russia, he can no longer be extradited to a foreign state.”
Snowden, 39, is wanted by Washington on espionage charges. He considers himself a whistleblower.
It’s unclear whether Snowden swore the oath of allegiance at the same time as he was granted a passport, but the two are common procedures when foreigners become Russian citizens. The text includes swearing “to protect the freedom and independence of the Russian Federation, to be loyal to Russia, to respect its culture, history and traditions,” and to promise to “perform the duties of a citizen of the Russian Federation for the good of the state and society.”

Well he absolutely was a whistleblower. I don’t know how you deny that even if his actions were illegal. It’s not like he had an option to go anywhere else without getting rolled up by CIA ninjas.

Was, baw. Now he's sworn to Putin.

Liked the part where he says if the Crusaders would have had wet wipes England would rule the world right now. Apparently, the infections of the buttocks was really bad during the Crusades and caused a lot of problems. Also, how he knew one "Finnish special forces guy" was a fake cause he collected green pine branches for firewood. Really great interview.

A little off topic for the war but big news today for the US military. The B-21 Raider stealth bomber is officially being introduced today at Plant 42 in California. The world’s first 6th gen aircraft and the first bomber we have unveiled since the B-2 in 1988.

Meaning it's been in service for 10 years already

Northrop got the contract in late 2015 so to go from that to now in 7 years really isn’t bad for an aircraft this complex. It will still be another 2-4 years before they are in actual service but it will fly sometime next year. Once they go active they will operate from Ellsworth AFB in South Dakota.

I read that the "introduction" is going to involve opening the door of the hangar, people getting a glimpse inside, and then the doors closing again.
They aren't letting anyone close to it at all.

That's all the time huawei needs for their triangulated 3d scanners to infiltrate the hanger and map out their entire 2040 release.

EU and NATO citizens despite America. Time for them to pay protection fees until they fund their military.

The threat of U.S. sanctions jeopardized completion of a second direct gas pipeline from Russia. So Gazprom and German officials concocted a phony climate foundation to get the job done.

This is as crazy as it gets — that a German government authority is taking money from Gazprom to complete the pipeline Gazprom can’t complete because they are under U.S. sanctions,” said Constantin Zerger of DUH, a prominent German environmental watchdog.
Germany is such a fricking joke. If it’s a requirement that the United States be in NATO and defend Europe because they’re all too weak and poor to do it for themselves, the we should at least kick out those Kraut shitbags.

didn't Germany cancel the Nordstream 2 permits just before the invasion? That wasn't because of sanctions
