Russian invasion of Ukraine

[Kaleredar]

yeah exactly. I don't know why people think they'd seriously fly a plane without any measures or secrecy and boast "fuck around and find out"

I still believe if it was known where Zelenksy specifically was flying, the Russians would definitely have attacked it. The same goes for the likes of Boris Johnson, who made various unannounced and unnoticed (until he was at Kyiv) visits to Ukraine early this year.

Russia was never, ever going to attack a US government plane.

Russia is scared of the US. Not the other way around.

Another $1.8 billion in aid announced by the US, sure to give pootie and his tankies more tears.

The Patriot system has been confirmed, though only 1 of them. Given they cost $1 billion per system they don't come cheap. Includes a lot of Warsaw Pact sized ammo, including 100,000 rounds for their tanks and 50,000 round for Grad rockets. Guess the US found another source of soviet ammo from somewhere.

One is probably enough. Patriot missiles are $4M a pop. Ukraine likely will reserve those for airplane bombers and cruise missiles. At least I hope they won't use them to shoot down $50k Iranian drones.

Compare and contrast.

I think everyone with nukes is afraid of each other.
I'm pretty sure there's a Poseidon sitting in wait near every major port city in the world. Undetectable until it activates. At that time it will be too late.
Miami, New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, all would be erased within a few minutes.

Yeah no, by all accounts Poseidon is another one of those grandiose russian things that's not even worth the paper it is described on.

But let's entertain the thought that it works, how long do you think it'll take to produce that many 100Mt torpedo nukes? And that is not even counting that some ports cannot be threatened by them as the collateral would be russian territory.

They're just openly calling Putin a terrorist now on TV. And by "they," I mean government officials and Biden, not just social media goers.

I lost track of how many times on the conference today they called him terrorist with some peppers of murderer and warmonger.

It's almost like someone is upset pooties teeny tiny pecker has been mocked.

the problem with saying these things is it means now diplomacy or anything of the sort like amiable relations with Russia is out the window.

Now the terms are more or less: Surrender. Otherwise, there's nothing to say.

Nobody is talking about surrender.....Good god what is your problem?

All Russia needs to do is...go back to Russia. The war is over. Tada. Nobody is going to occupy Moscow.

[callipygoustp]

Or Russia could assassinate Putin and then with draws.

that's surrendering, admitting total defeat

The Russians at large genuinely love Putin. That's not hyperbole either given the chaos in Iran right now; if they were oppressed or whatever, it could be like that, but it isn't because they genuinely love Putin.

yup thats all ok. We should have set up a no fly zone over ukraine at the start of the war, what are those piss pants russians gonna do. Fuck them.

[Elder Millennial]

How is Russia maintaining unchallenged its internationally recognized borders and complete political integrity equal to total defeat?

I'm going to kill myself. I have to put you on ignore I'll jump out of a window.

[YUPPIE]

Because Russia waged a war? There's winning or losing. If they go back home, Ukraine wins, Russia loses.

Where do you get these takes, RT News?

Yes, good, they should do that.

The only issue with this is that Russia isn't losing fast or decisive enough for my liking.

[Corvus]

The russian population is so brainwashed and servile they'd believe anything they are told. So if pootie pulled out and said they'd won, it would be believed.

“Here Ukraine, have some more weapons to blow up the Russians. Come on by, we’ll even train you how to do it! And while we’re at it, let’s dial up the sanctions on Russia a little tighter.” ~ The US

“Hey US you better stop that, or we’re gonna send another mindless mouthpiece to say mean things on state-run media again!” ~ Russia’s response

Yeah bud, the US seems real “terrified,” here.
