Forget the mud. Am I the only one realizing that these million dollar military vehicles are easy disabled by just taking out a tire. What's keeping a local from coming out of nowhere and taking out a tire with a molotov as you passing by.

Apparently not the Russian soldiers who are shooting every civilian they see on sight.

As far as western intel and military officials are concerned, they are clearly running anti Russian information campaign. And an extremely effective one at that I might add. Hell,we’re seeing cancel culture being brought upon an entire nation right now.



Remember those two IL-76's that the Ukes claimed to shoot down and US intel confirmed?

Really big planes. Supposedly full of 140 paratroopers each. Not one pic of wreckage of either of them has been produced.

Why are you so butthurt over my posts?

Serious question


It probably doesn't have anything to do with you personally. This thread has a pretty bad case of the mob mentality. A lot of people don't realize that there are acceptable conditions where you can level apartment complexes, schools, and even churches and it not be a war crime.

As soon as you suggest that the videos have a slight chance of being taken out of context you are lumped in as a Russian sympathizer. So run out and grab you a fur hat baw

I had been planning a trip to Moscow, so I looked at my options again yesterday, factoring in the sanctions. Serbia and Turkey are the best bet. But there’s no way either can scale up to meet demand.

Here's a Twitter thread with interesting reading on just how bad aviation could get for Russia. Worth the read if you're making decisions based on it:

I, personally, realize that. I also don't have any faith in the Russians. Discounting either side of this argument is just foolish, and that is pretty much what was happening.

That's disingenuous and no one said that. I certainly didn't.

Neither do I, and I’ve never even suggested as much

If a bears shites in the woods and no one is around to hear it, does it need to wipe?

You’re correct. Now I’m willing to have a rational discussion on this topic if you are willing to not just assume I’m some Putin fanboy because I read the situation differently than you do.

But he didn't do that. He said he didn't see the point of your theory of "oops we missed" and doesn't want to take some twitter videos as proof of war crimes. He didn't say there was no way they are guilty of it.

You asked what problem I had with your posts earlier. They came off as you discrediting any and all possibility that they would target civilians and civilian infrastructure. It seems as if the only thing that would at all convince you is watching live with your own eyes.

I tried to fit "whilst" in this post, but I couldn't. Bear with me whilst I figure out how to best wedge it in.

Then you either aren't looking or don't want to believe it.

Hell, the Russians even said they were about to start shelling of a couple of the cities they have encircled. They even warned people to leave. And the newer footage coming out suggests they weren't bluffing.

So the exact same tactics every other civilized military in the world use including the United States?

War crime is becoming the new “racist” or “sexist.” It’s getting thrown around so much that it’s losing its meaning.

I'm trying to figure out if there is a time pattern as to when the Putinistas tend to congregate on the thread.
