That town in Poland is halfway between Berlin and Warsaw.

ETA: Plus, I don't think those are for the Ukrainians but likely whatever American forces are deployed or about to be deployed to Poland.

What has happened in Mariupol will make Bucha look like a picnic. Mariupol looks like the modern day Stalingrad. Question is: Will it be exposed to the world?

Twitter link that updates the case spoken a hundred threads or so ago where a Russian wife told her soldier husband he could rape Ukrainian women if he wore protection.



Hope he gets shot in the dick


While his wife is giving him a BJ.

If Putin doesn’t watch out, he may soon learn why we have crumbling bridges and no universal health care.



You just can't help yourself can you? Despite the fact discretionary spending is only a third of non-discretionary spending, with defense only making up half of discretionary.



You could completely eliminate defense spending at that wouldn't even pay for a drop in the bucket of universal healthcare.

If this is actually the crew of the Moskva, they appear to be about 400 short.

Damn. That lines up with the numbers that have been reported. And as much as I hate Putin, as a veteran, that video is sad to watch. So many wasted lives and destroyed families. I can't imagine what those 50 guys are feeling right now.

Trigger Warning: Washington Post

Article on Ukraine use of an American company’s AI software to scan faces of dead Russian soldiers and tie them to their social media accounts in Russia. Then, with that information informing Russian families that their kid is dead.

Debate whether:

(A) This is an effective way to stir dissent for the war within Russia

(B) This will infuriate mothers of dead soldiers, increasing support for the war within Russia

I wouldn’t support that. It doesn’t seem right.

Russia is reviewing its smoking policy aboard its navy vessels.

Missile cruisier sank, Russians still attacking in company and battalion sized elements in the east and not doing well. Starting to see wrecked T80s.

We’re talking about Russia. Not soy infused American leftists. You start bragging to the families about the men you’ve killed and you’re going to end up with a lot more brothers and fathers fighting in a war they may have otherwise not involved themselves in.

Those are M109A6 Paladins, I know the M109A7 is newer and meant to replace them, but my understanding is that the M109A6 is still the dominant platform.

In any case, equipping, training and maintaining the Ukrainians with Paladins assuming with their fire control systems, and fire direction systems, would be a colossal pain in the arse and or take a colossal amount of time.

I guess you could fight them "dumb" aka A5 mode, but if that is the case, I would say frick the 577s.
