re: Latest Updates: Russia-Ukraine Conflict

The imagined weakness of our men due to ideological differences between yourself and American servicemen is irrelevant, because the Chinese just don't have the ships or experience to win a major Naval campaign IF, and this is an important qualifier, we are prepared.
The Chinese sailor can be as tough as a 18 century biscuit and it wouldn't matter.
That's why the Ukraine war is so important. Distract Russia, give China some pause and give us some time to get some manufacturing done.
Not to mention refurb some very important amphibious assault ships, finish the Marine Corp training for the paracel islands etc etc etc
And no, the Nine Dash Line is not China's home turf.
Its contested territory far to the south, where we can count on much closer bases and support from our regional allies.
In fact, it's closer to being OUR home turf than China's.

Its time to put aside your emotions and feelings, and start thinking objectively.
You upvoted your own post again. That being said any sort of thinking I do, subjectively objectively or simply quiet time reflection, is based in truth, and your willingness to put truth to the wayside to prove your point shows you have no basis for your reasoning. And I’m not upset, if I was I’d be upvoting my own posts on an anonymous college sports website to make myself feel better. After reading your post tonight my only advice to you is to follow your dream, strap up, take a plane to Ukraine, hit the front line, and get ground up into the soil like you wish upon everyone else that’s with the cause.

Ah, I think see your mistake.
You're trying to insert your own sense of "right and wrong" into the situation.
Sorry to inform you, but that's not how politics works.
Its uncaring, unfeeling and completely self interested, as any nation worth it's salt would be.
If that bothers you, well I'm sorry to say I just don't care.
By all means, keep crying about it. Be upset over learning that politicians lie and people die in war.
I know this is a shocking revelation but I have news for you: the world does not care.
Protest all you want, rage and cry about it until you are blue in the face.
It doesn't matter, because the war will continue regardless.

And I see yours. You UPVOTED your fricking post again. Just stop, this isn’t Facebook old man, you’re yelling at clouds.. again. And stop taking about “politics” like you know what’s going on. My comment was go fight your war, and here you sit, doing nothing but trolling the internet looking for support to put another million bodies in the ground. And where are you? Posting about war sitting behind your account not doing a damn thing. You’re the weak point in America, all talk, not doing a damn thing. Shut your mouth like a good boy, pick up a gun and go get hit with a mortar Billy badass.

Sounds like that manufacturing is going swimmingly.

You seem upset.
Its pretty amusing to watch how seriously you take this.
Nothing we say here will change anything. I'm merely pointing out the way the world works, and you act as if this personal to you somehow.
Very bizzare, but you've given me a few chuckles tonight, so you're OK in my book!

Exactly right, we need more time to sort this mess out.

Calm down old man, come sit down on the couch with me and drink a cold one.
The sun will still come up in the morning, everything is gonna be ok.

I’ve laughed as well, at you, not with you… but I appreciate the dialogue and get where your coming from and seems like we could have a cold beer together. My whole point of this is let’s keep the story straight.
Edit: I’m being serious that people will take you more seriously if you don’t upvote your own posts. Not being an a-hole, just a pointer.

See? All is well.
This is just the internet, I don't take any of this seriously.
As you are an American, I have nothing against you, and never will.
Let's just sit back, crack a few cold ones and laugh at the circus.

I know your not the OP but I started all of this so that the facts are straight (missile shot into Poland). You seem like someone that’d be fun to have a few beers with. We’d agree and disagree, but that’s our right.

Well.. go on and post an update

Edit: lots of downvotes, yet no explanation.. maybe someone can reply and clarify why the first line in this thread is a blatant lie. Facts are a good thing, and if you’re against that then maybe you need to check your bearings on how you see the world.
Why don't you change the post? Oh, you can't? Neither can we. The OP doesn't visit the thread anymore. RAs don't allow you to explain. If a mod sees this please delete the November update in the OP it is incorrect and the author never updated it.

British Defence Intelligence
INTELLIGENCE UPDATE
UPDATE ON UKRAINE 3 April 2023
The Russian MOD is likely running a deliberate information operation to revive the reputation of a brigade which has become synonymous with recent Russian failures in Ukraine.
Throughout March 2023, the activities of 155th Naval Infantry Brigade were highlighted via some of the most extensive Russian helmet-cam combat footage yet released; a televised visit by a prominent Russian TV host, Vladimir Solovyov; public announcements that the formation is in 'high spirits [with] a strong determination to achieve the set goals; and images showing the 155th being re-equipped with modified tanks.
In reality, the 155th has likely been reduced to combat ineffective status at least twice in the last six months, due to being committed to tactically flawed frontal assaults near Vuhledar in Donetsk Oblast. The MOD's effort to revive the brigade's image likely reflects concern about the way in which its failures were being increasingly associated with Russian senior military leaders.

U.S. president Joe Biden, speaking from the G20 summit in Bali, said that it was "unlikely" that the missile was fired from Russia
It was stated within the last couple of weeks that when someone asked the same question about the missile hitting Poland
That was the last post that was entered by the OP. If u look at the edit date it is the same date as the post. At the time there was speculation it was an errant Russian missile.
However, after a few days it was determined to me a Ukrainian s-300 that was errant. But no edits since the original post. No edits of the OP since 11/17
At this point either the OP needs to come edit (which I believe they have abandoned this thread) or an admin has to come edit.
On 11/17 the post was accurate with fog of war. Today we no it to be incorrect.
