Russian invasion of Ukraine

[Easo]

Guys, something really bad is coming, Putin is sending Iskander rockets to Iran. WW3 in 2-3 days.

Please don't be another Yuppie, it is already too much with only him.

Is there anyone who thinks that Israel won't respond very aggressively on Iran's attack? a big war in middle east is inevitable, they want it to happen, they go through this route so that they don't look like the aggressors.

The last time Iran send a bunch of missiles towards Israel nothing happened.

Yeah, typically Iran is big on talk and small on response. Ultimately they have to respond, otherwise it looks like they quietly approve of Israels attack, or they are too weak to mount a response. But ultimately Iran isnt looking to draw the ire of the USA. The USA will let them get away with a reasponse, especially in clear retaliation for an attack, provided it isnt too disproportinate.

I mean, thats the whole game behind "proportional reaponse". Its enough of a response to show youll hit back when provoked, but its not enough to warrant an all out war.

Beyond that, while the whole of the Muslim world may dislike Israel, they also dislike Iran a lot too. So Iran cant do anything that would draw in its regional neighbors, since theyre just as likely to kick Irans ass as Israels. And while the immediate neighbors of Israel dont like Israel, most lack the ability to reapond in a serious manner, and the ones that do are also friends/allies of the USA, and theyre more interested in keeping those terms with the USA, than starting or participating in a regional war with Israel.

WW3? Hardly. The middle east Muslim World doesnt love the Palestinians that much, and Iran doesnt have that many friends.

[YUPPIE]

and Iran doesnt have that many friends.

unfortunately (and on topic) one of those friends is a military power like Russia.

So? I get youre all hopped up on Russias dick, but they cant afford or supply a lone Iran vs the middle east.

First satellite footage and photos from the site of the airfield explosion show literally nothing remains around the site of the ammo dump. Numerous buildings have just ceased to exist.

They also show one destroyed su34 and two more damaged. The extent is unknown but given they were left behind when the rest of the planes were evacuated shows not even the russians thought they were airworthy enough to fly.

They're also kind of busy with a minor regional conflict in eastern Europe right now. I know Yuppie's probably never heard about it, but it's been occupying a good portion of their military for the last few years.

Former military power*

[Poopymonster]

Do y'all ever get tired to declaring WWIII is just around the corner?

It's just around the corner, so now we're back home?
How many times her ass been around this block?

Israel attacked first, fuck Isreal.

[Gigantique]

"They"(im assuming youre talking about general readers, not bad faith actors) wouldnt have to, the bad faith actors would be banned, and their nonsense wouldnt exist.

If by "they" you meant the bad faith actors, they dont correct themselves, none of them have, ever.

Tbf since the bans are rarely permanent it helps that the bad faith posters are barraged with fact checking and being called out on their bullshit immediately and repeatedly. Makes it easy to put on my "This is probably some headcanon coming up" goggles whenever their username pops up.

It's why I am doing remote work jobs only. Imagine this and vaccine denial on the daily. And ofc, sloppy filing.

It makes me unfathomably glad my line of work has a fairly intense selection process that filters out ~97% of applicants. It makes the carpet-droolers very unlikely to end up working next to me, especially since a psych eval is part of the process.

And it's not an interface to customers/general public either, it's pretty sweet.

Israel can't even fight bums with aks and unarmed civilians without asking the US for money and weapons. How would they go to war with Iran without asking for even more money and weapons?! And considering the circumstances where the Democrats really REALLY want that anti-semite zoomer college moron vote and as well as the votes of the Muslim minorities in order to beat Trump in November, and it's going to be pretty difficult for the Democrats to justify forking even more dough to Israel considering that even now they are under pressure from their voter base to cut funding for Israel.

Back from your ban and already posting nonsense?

Man, we have a different thread for this.

I suppose, its just irritating that the burden of moderation effectively falls on us, rather than the people in control of the platform.

And thats not a complaint just against thia forum, that seems to be the approach all social media has taken.

[Easo]

I guess I have to congratulate Budanov with yet another amazing achievement - doing a raid in Kursk while Russians have raised the flag in north of New York (kek) and entered Toretsk all the while Ocheretino fuckup still is being exploited by Russia.
Someone on the Twitter said it best back in March:

Amid all the reports of munition and manpower shortages in the Ukrainian formations, it's very reassuring that Budanov can still secure resources for his pet meme operations.

The jokes just write themselves and I am running out of popcorn.

[KrayZ33]

Meh, unless Russian agressors and invaders are dying on mass, I don't think it's a funny joke.
Would rather have Russian leadership do these mistakes.

This is more like a tragedy.

I think the Ukrainian staff have played too much League of Legends, are they trying to backdoor Russia?

Ok we can't beat them so let's invade them instead and steal some land.

Ever heard about behind enemy lines actions to target logistics and stuff? no? then read up on it.
