Lots of red on that map.


Might have to do with Russian state media being the source. There are plenty of areas on their map that they have absolutely no control of.

Increased oil & gas production in the short term is critical or people around the world will be placed under great duress.

This is not a question of money, it is a question of having enough energy to power civilization.

And you know this how?


Not saying the Russian map is correct. I'm saying you have zero evidence the map you prefer is correct.

@KyivIndependent·6m??

Russian troops are headed towards the Kaniv Hydroelectric Power Plant, about 100 kilometers south of Kyiv, the General staff of Ukraine’s Armed Forces reported on March 5.


So possibly going after the Hydro plant. I was thinking nuclear for some reason.

Zelensky doesn't know the meaning of the word no.

About to the point I wish the Ruskie just drop a thermobaric on him.

eta-His absolutely constant crying to both the US and NATO to bail his arse out proves to me that he's been essentially a puppet. Without a very close relationship I don't see his requests being so pleading as they are.

He fully expected to be protected and now sees he got played.

I don't think he is totally innocent in all of this. I think all 3 parties(or more) had a hand in this unraveling.

180 gallons. pshhhhh A typical large locomotive has a 5000 gallon fuel tank.

Union Pacific passed the US Navy as the #1 consumer of diesel/fuel oil a number of years ago. About the time they mothballed the battleships I think.

Fuel surcharges are going to be big the way things are going.

I'm basing it off actual accounts from people living in those towns. Seems a little more accurate than Russia state media when they're battling a bunch of negativity due to a lack of progress this week.

The actual videos show that this is likely legit. Wish I could load the videos. Big camp that apparently stationed 4k troops that evacuated in a few hours

You have to assume both governments are saying whatever they need to for th most part. Actual people may have their own agendas as well but should be more reliable.

You really just gotta piece together what you can from various sources and video evidence

Yeah, does that change anything? Videos that you can geo-locate...both sides intelligence units actually use local videos from social media to some extent also.



So are we here for nukes, genocide in Donetsk, or Neo-nazis? It's getting tough to keep up with all of the facts from the Kremlin.

That looks nothing like what was in the video. There were hundreds of green tents that were clearly somewhat new. The fact that the base existed for years and was apparently decommissioned doesn’t say much. They still could have used the space with the new war

Pretty sure that is a shot at us over the Iraq war. If I had to guess...

Yeah it changes everything because you literally have zero clue if you’re looking at blown out or abandon Russian tank or an abandoned Ukrainian tank.

I’m quite aware that they do, in fact a majority of our intelligence comes from open sources.
