That paired with a people more hardened than the Ukrainians. Those poor bastards have been fighting the Germans and Russians outmatched for centuries.

So what’s the possible game plan here for the Ukrainians knowing that convoy is headed their way?


Ya, get them as far away from supplies as you possibly can. Use all the people you just gave rifles to, use those Turkish drones.

Get the column to stop and open up.

Should those people be purged and censored? The answer is obvious to me. It’s one thing to ridicule those people and another thing entirely to ask the powers that be to eliminate them.




Why are you defending those people?

They are the same ones who called for me to get banned (which I was) during the election fiasco because I kept telling them that Trump wasn't going to take office in January and all their hopes were false.

They didn't like what I had to say, so they had me banned.

I never was derogatory towards any, or called them names, or cursed them out. But they all did those things to me.

Yet I was banned.


frick that place and the people who have taken it over.

Chicken does need to do a purge on that board, and get it back to what it was originally: a place to hold political debates and discussions of differeing opinions, not a circle jerk.

They’re like Ukraine in that they’ve always been stuck between world powers just trying to go about their life as everyone around them uses them as pawns in war.

Probably the biggest news tonight. Between that and Ukraine openly getting EU fast track support.

Not a bad idea to draw them in and make the supply line a point of critical failure. Draw the infantry into the city and take fire from elevated positions in the balconies.

On the other hand, shelling will be a bitch.

Honestly, I doubt many of those are left. I was reading up on them earlier. Syria managed to shoot down almost 50 of them in their conflict.

If there’s a fighting aged male in Finland that wouldn’t fight for that...

We should "lose" just one Warthog somewhere in Ukraine.


That would take care of the convoy problem for them.

Over 6,000 Russian people have now been arrested for protesting the war. That is likely a Russia-supplied count, so it is probably significantly higher.

The Poland of today has a long and brave history of military power as much of the land was once known as Prussia and Pommerania.

It actually wouldn’t have surprised me if it were actually lower. No one protests Putin in that country without having to watch their back for the rest of their lives. At the very least, they will be unemployable, at worst, they disappear.

Random thought. That 4o mile convoy might be a flak trap and that's why they're not hitting it. Or maybe they've lost the capability

You're assuming that Russia will be the same after this.



It may no longer be Putin's Russia.

I’m not defending them. I was fighting back against the idea that they represent the PT.

I said the same thing and I was never banned. I suspect you’re not presenting the facts of what happened accurately.

It still is that way. You confuse overwhelming opposition to your opinion with not being allowed to share your opinion.
