If you think its about "pulling for" either, you're stupid. Ukraine winning would be the best outcome.
Im not pulling for Ukraine for Zelensky.
Hell, I actually agreed with the other non-interventionist that we should give Putin/Russia a buffer zone.
But that was before that egomaniac decided to invade the entire country like this.
Russia's military bogged down in some kind of protracted irregular war/occupation would be about the best lesson to teach them to stay within their own borders.
Putin getting embarrassed might actually accelerate him getting replaced.

You know it’s bad when the best propaganda photos Russia can come up with are an 80 yr old in fatigues holding a cat.

Local (pro-Russian) Kharkov telegram channel reports on the situation with the "humanitarian corridors"
quote:
From what I understand, the main problem is that Russians insist on searching people who leave the city because they don't want to let war criminals flee, and the Ukrainian side insists on everyone being let out without being checked, otherwise it doesn't recognize the corridors
quote:
FWIW being "pro-Russian" is not some kind of obscure minority position among Kharkov citizens, the city had a very large pro-Russian movement, anti-Maidan protests with up to 100k participants, they proclaimed their own "Kharkov People's Republic" in 2014 etc

Has anyone seen any actual Ukrainian troops, in uniform?
Maybe only a couple dozen total. They've been asking people for weeks not to take pictures of troops, equipment, or their locations. Their SOF guys have been wreaking some havoc on those smaller convoys, particularly north & west of Kyiv.

I'll spell it out for you; I don't like all the propaganda the clownshow Zelensky is putting out because he is trying his damnedest to get US into their war. I don't want us in a war with another nuclear power and you shouldn't either.
Thats the neocons and neoliberals who want the USA to get involved. Yes Zelensky asked for a no fly zone but I highly doubt he believed he would get it. He asked for a no fly zone so that he could have roome to negotiate and still get resupplied with stingers and other anti-air defenses. If Trump had done that then most of the posters here would have been bragging about the art of the deal. However, when another leader does it, it’s hysterical propaganda.
quote:
His and his deputies hysterics and bald faced lies about the nuke plant were 100% to get us to overreact and jump in.
Maybe it was as simple as an official not knowing what is true and what is not and passing on a rumor that gets blown out of proportion. Just like the amphibious invasion of Odessa on the first night of the war was originally a Russian marine operation, then got misreported as the US marines landing in Odessa, then turned out to be no amphibious operation at all. That’s why you should only believe 25% of what is confirmed, 5% of what is reported, and 0.0005% of what is tweeted in the first 12 hours after a breaking news event.

Hell, they got that idiot Miss Lindsey to call for Putin's assassinations on national tv.
Are you really going to blame Ukraine for Lindsey Graham being a dumbarse and a warhawk?

Ukraine has reportedly started a counter-offensive in the Kharkiv region. The goal is to push them back to the border. Combined-arms approach with armor, mechanized/motorized & artillery forces.

No mention of air.
There are some on the OT claiming Ukraine still has control of the skies.

It’s not that Ukraine controls this skies, it’s that Russia doesn’t control the skies…. for whatever reason (surface to air munitions) Russia either can’t or won’t flood Ukraine skies with overwhelming air forces.

Pretty sure there could be a psychology study conducted in that thread.

It's time for sanctions against bears for assisting Putin's army. Let's start by pulling all the teddy bears off toy shelves.

You're joking but from what I have seen here lately if someone posted online for the herd to start trashing and burning teddy bears there would be video after video of them doing just that.

Looks like they have decided to encircle and bypass Chernihiv. The Uke's have been fighting like hell there reportedly and it's holding up the advance on Kiev on that axis.

This. It appears that the Ukraine has very little to no offensive air assets or this convoy would be in flames.
