The only thing negative from a drawn out war is western optics and I dont think Russia really gives a shite.


That and an economy in ruins and a military that’s crippled.

Has NATO ever attacked Russia?
NATO is a threat only because of Russian paranoia and the effect western civ has on the Russian dictator style of govt.

Which hasn't been a threat to them since the collapse of the Soviet Union. NATO is an anachronistic organization whose usefulness died out over 30 years ago.

Pretty sure NATO bombed the fck out of Kosovo during their own peace-keeping mission.

That's how the Kremlin prop portrays it at least.

Centinel's right. You're misrepresenting Ukrainian popular opinion of Russian invasion.

Imagine if the US had been fighting a war with Canada for portions of British Columbia for 8 years - even if they start off with a positive view of us, it doesn't stay that way.

I don't know WTF you're talking about,this is recent.Ukraine is a fractured nation. It has a huge amount of Russians who support Russia there.

To many Europeans who are better verse in geography, Ukrainians and Russians are the same thing. Ukraine has a distinct identity, but it's entwined with Russian identity for centuries. They are essentially same eastern European tribes.

What I’ve gathered reading from both sides for the past few days:

- Russia didn’t think it was worth trying to take Kyiv with massive losses. At least not yet.

- They’re strategy has shifted to encircling the Eastern Army in the southeast from two separate fronts. This will be the new major battle for the next month.

- Mariupol should completely fall within the next week. This will free up a lot of their manpower and artillery to help with the Southeastern front.

Seems like Putin knows precisely the strategy and scheme of “our” side, and we know amazingly nothing of his/theirs. Do we seriously have zero inside scoop on them? Do we not have housefly surveillance drones that can slip in the door at his HQ and eavesdrop on their game planing? I thought we were America.

Russia was forced to destroy essentially every building in the city as Ukraine retreated from building to building. Now they’re hunkered down making their last stand in a massive Steel plant that has underground floors.

Here are people welcoming Russians with soviet and Russian flags and offering them food somewhere in Eastern Ukraine.

But MSM reported that Russian's aren't viewed as liberators and throw molotov cocktails at them wheverever they go.

Good call. IntelSlava is full of shite, as usual.

It was my mistake, I assumed truck was going through Donbas area.

I saw a video of Ukranian soldier bullying Ukrainian granny with Soviet flag. That was in Ukraine, though. Also posted by Intel Slava Z.

He does post a lot of unverified footage, but then again he averages 30 posts/daily. I hate loading my phone with apps, but got Telegram just so I can see what's happening from the other side. CombatFootage on Reddit basically reposts some of the things he posts, but only a fraction of the Russian/DPR videos.

Then you'll take it down and edit your posts on both boards where you posted it?

Just did. Wish MSM had similar integrity.

You need to stop with ninja edits.

Just edited to request that you remove it from both boards instead of just this one.

I think what just happened to you demonstrates how easy it is to get taken by Russian prop.
