Ask your question in the Gaza thread.


So you are dodging another answer. Not surprising.

Calling out hypocrisy in this thread sure ruffles feathers.

Israel can do it with weapons that we provide: Crickets

Russia does it: Bad

Its absolutely hilarious that you were spamming about Trump being a pedo weeks ago, and now nothing because you think hes going to help Ukraine

You also clearly think the average American cares way more about Ukraine than they actually do.

another apartment building targeted...

Russian drone attack on Kharkiv injures 10, infant and children among victims

August 1, 2025 10:21 pm

Russia attacked the northeastern city of Kharkiv with drones the night of Aug. 1, hitting a residential building and injuring at least 10 people, including children, local authorities reported.

The victims include a 5-month-old baby, along with a 9-year-old and 10-year-old boy, Kharkiv Oblast Governor Oleh Syniehubov reported. Of the 10 victims, five have been hospitalized, the governor said.

A Russian Molniya kamikaze drone struck an apartment building in Kharkiv's Kyivskyi district, Mayor Ihor Terekhov said. Emergency services are operating on the scene.

Located less than 30 kilometers from the Russian border, the northeastern city of Kharkiv has suffered relentless aerial attacks throughout Russia's full-scale war. Moscow often targets densely populated neighborhoods with missiles and glide bombs.

The Kyiv Independent

report from Suspilne:

The people who were injured as a result of the UAV attack were either on the street or in apartments near the windows, Nelly Kazanzhieva, the head of the Kyiv District Administration, told Suspilne Kharkiv.

"On the first floor, a person was in an apartment. (Injured — ed.) by glass. And mostly people on the street. This is just a residential area. In our North Saltivka, it is exclusively a residential area. There is no industrial infrastructure here at all and never was. I consider this to be horror. These are inhuman attacks on our people," Kazanzhieva added.

Russia calls it the Shahed. They're desperately ramping up production to hopefully kill enough Ukrainian civilians to break their spirit. Very similar to V2s, yes. Just not quite as accurate



Putin is wasting munitions on civilians to terrorize Ukraine, but all that does is piss off Ukrainians and make them more bitter enemies.

I'm pretty sure that was a big part of his joke, along with the one they have being inoperable at the moment and that they listed it for sale last week..

Go troll somewhere else.

There are plenty of Gaza threads.

Obviously you are pro Russia and anti Ukrsine.
Now I see you are anti Israel and pro Muslim.
It all adds up.

Yes, and strangely not many here claim he's wasting his time and needs to be focusing that "on the front."

I'm also sure the Chinese agents monitoring this site are happy to know that if they someday establish a beachhead in Mexico or Canada, all they have to do is launch drones into America and apparently a lot of people will vote for whoever promises to just surrender to end it in the next election. I haven't checked the stats on Mandarin in Duolingo but I suspect there's been an uptick.

Bad faith and retarded statement

Picking countries that are our next door neighbors, being invaded by our only true peer in power, and saying it’s the same thing as a 3rd rate rival invading a country that is 5000+ miles away

If you feel bad for Ukes, you can donate your money, or go put your body on the line. A poor country 5000+ miles away with no ties to the US is not in America’s interest.

I care more about Rwanda v Congo, which is about the same distance geographically, but offers significant earth mineral opportunities to the US.

Did Ukraine just unleash its first Bars cruise missiles?

A 500 km strike deep inside Russia suggests it Photos from Stavropol have fueled speculation that Ukraine’s new Bars missiles have entered the war.
quote:

In the span of two weeks starting in early July, the German government signaled separate investments in Ukraine’s best attack drone—the Ukroboronprom An-196 Liutyi—as well as its first mass-producible cruise missile, apparently the Bars.
quote:

There’s some evidence the German spend is already making a difference. The An-196 and Bars “are being deployed on the front line with increasing frequency,” the pro-Ukraine Conflict Intelligence Team noted.
quote:

Major Gen. Christian Freuding, the head of the German defense ministry’s Situation Center Ukraine, announced the missile deal in early July. The weapons, apparently Bars, would begin arriving in Ukraine within weeks—meaning now.
quote:

The turbojet Bars ranges around as far as the propeller-driven Liutyi [drone] does, but should hit harder thanks to a bigger warhead. And it should be more survivable owing to its likely higher speed. An An-196 motors along at slower than 320 km/hr; most cruise missiles travel twice as fast.
quote:

The Bars is reportedly capable of ground and aerial launch. The Ukrainian air force has modified its Sukhoi Su-24 bombers to carry British-made Storm Shadow and French-made SCALP cruise missiles that are 5 m long and weigh nearly 1,400 kg. The Bars should be smaller and lighter, and may also be compatible with the Su-24s.






quote:

A photo that circulated on Russian social media the same day may depict, for the first time in public, wreckage of one of the Bars missiles.


As the An-196 Liutyi drone has hit targets 1300km from Ukraine and this Bars cruise missile 'is said' to have equivalent range, they still are short of the 1600km range they need to hit the Shahed drone factory at Yalabuga. But this is already better than the 500-550km range of the Storm Shadow / Scalp or Taurus missiles.

It's clear that the technology is not the limiting factor, but the fuel load. More fuel for longer range equals less warhead. Unlike ballistic missiles that take advantage of added re-entry glide range, cruise missiles are designed to hug the terrain, thus use more fuel per kg of payload.

But they're getting there.

India to buy Russian oil despite Trump's threats – NYT

Volodymyr Tunik-Fryz — Saturday, 2 August 2025, 13:55

Indian officials said that they would continue to buy cheap oil from Russia despite threats of punishment from President Trump.

Source: The New York Times with reference to sources

Details: Two senior Indian officials said there had been no change in policy. One of the officials said that the government did not give oil companies any guidance on cutting imports from Russia.

At a news conference a day earlier, Randhir Jaiswal, a spokesman for India's foreign ministry, declined to comment directly on Trump's threat. But he hinted that the policy towards Russia will not change.

"Our bilateral relationships with various countries stand on their own merit and should not be seen from the prism of a third country. India and Russia have a steady and time-tested partnership," Jaiswal said.

Some analysts believe Trump's focus on India's purchases of Russian oil could be a negotiating tactic as India and the US try to complete the first stages of a bilateral trade deal.

He’s absolutely right. With Russia’s mineral wealth and expanse of land it could be a wealthy country if it stopped wasting money on war making and expansion.

Everything Vol posts regarding you is true.

He has 100% got you pegged. You dodge questions. You make claims that you cannot prove with facts.Then your only answer is calling whoever calls you out a troll.

You are an old man that has drank the propaganda koolaid for so long it has turned you into an old neocon that is out of touch with reality.
