Official Russia vs Ukraine War Thread

Judging by the amount of times you post on this Western Media platform, you seem to be enjoying the freedoms of the Western Media to express varying viewpoints to a Western audience, no matter how valid they are.

Where you expecting perhaps a war without propaganda? You seem shocked. Perhaps you should take a few deep breaths.

There is a great, award winning, 1953, French film titled, "Wages of Fear" (Le Salaire de la peur). Summary: "A company hires four men, down on their luck, to drive two trucks loaded with nitroglycerine over poorly maintained mountain dirt roads." Sounds like the poor mobiks were were faced with (very dangerous cargo). All it would take is a bump in the road and a poorly mobik stored bomb (upright instead of lying down flat) falls over and ka-b--oo---mmmm ! ! !

It's his ruble paying job. Lolly has taken over the daily mass postings Carmine has been doing. Is the plan to sent Carmine to the Russian front lines?

Russia may have an Achilles heel. Russia's rail transport system is running low on cassette bearings. These critical components are usually imported from a Swedish manufacturer, but are not available due to sanctions. Russia does not have the capabilities to make these components themselves. It is very advanced manufacturing and is not something you can just get a metal shop to start cranking out. Estimates are that Russia has 10,000 railcars sidelined because of the shortage with up to another 200,000 at risk of being taken out of service. Russia is heavily dependent on rail for moving not just military equipment and personnel, but also for moving its exports of grain, energy, and raw materials. A breakdown in its rail transport system will both reek havoc on its ability to supply forces in Ukraine and to keep its economy from collapsing. Further, if Russia is not able to get its exports to market, there will be world wide shortages that will have huge global repercussions. The BRICs have been willing to grin and bear it with Russia's invasion because autocrats need to have each others backs but more importantly they like being able to get energy from Russia at a steep discount and see the opportunity to emerge from this with more power as Russia is taken down several notches by the conflict. But the BRICs will get hammered if Russia is not able to deliver energy and raw materials. So, this could be something that brings everyone together to finally have leverage to get Russia to give up on the invasion. And the West will also want to finally put pressure on UA to call it a day in order to keep the world economy from crashing.

Meanwhile, in Kherson, RU is evacuating the city in anticipation of a definitive battle with UA. UA has enforced a media blackout in Kherson, which is a strong signal that something big is coming. Surovikin has even alluded to a possible collapse in Kherson stating that RU has not ruled out making "difficult decisions" (i.e. retreat).

I enjoy your stupidity too. Makes me feel good when I remember, that I do not have to muddle through life like you. My country will be the last one standing, so you just keep sending your weapons to Ukraine and see what happens. You know the saying: play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Hiroshima and Nagasaki comeuppance is closer than you think :)

Did you just up-vote your own post? OMFG! That is the single most pathetic thing that you can do here (and yes, you did).

Congratulations on your up-vote!

So you’re offended that the news reports in the western media, written by western reporters for a western audience have a western slant?

JUst surprised and disappointed by how many people fall for the propaganda that is easily see through

Your country has a history of taking it up the backdoor in order to stay neutral.

The Democrats and the elite of the EU/NATO are the enemies of their own populations. An anti-Russian slant is the same thing as a pro-Democrat slant and the same thing as an Anti-American slant.

Disgraced Former FBI Official Declares '9/11 Is Nothing Compared To Jan 6th'

Calls for government to “be on the same war footing” against Americans...

Calls for government to “be on the same war footing” against Americans...

I expect you do know what you intended. But don't expect others to read your mind.

Your second paragraph makes no sense. After 911 the United States attacked Afghanistan because they sheltered the people who plotted, organized and funded that attack and others. Even assuming I could have discerned the connection that you didn't make explicit, I would have rejected it because there is a meaningful distinction between the US being attacked when it wasn't at war and Russian assets being attacked during a war instigated by Russia.

I don't make light of any civilian casualties, but your 200,000 number is about three times the number I have seen for total Afghan and Pakistani civilians killed in that 'special military operation'.

Carmine has been pushing for peace the entire time, for negotiations.

You war mongers ought to back up your words and go over and fight on this ridiculous war that benefits neither Russia no Ukraine.

Much of it was annexed by European settlers long before American was a thing.

Zerohedge!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Latest update from Ukraine.

Denys had lots of news tonight. Some good, some bad.

Because you were always in line to go to the front lines?

Carmine has stated on this thread and possibly other threads over the past twelve months that Africans are killed daily by U.S. war machine. It's splitting hairs if Carmine states U.S. military are killing Africans and a poster refutes Carmine's words. If it turns out C.I.A. drones are killing Africans, are we going to really argue those details?

U.S. war machine over the past two weeks killed Somalis via drones. Maybe the killing rate is less than under B.H.O. and D.J.T. It occurs too often. Special forces on the ground are not U.S. National Guard peace keeping troops. That's all we can say about that.

Posters should apologize to Carmine. Enough killing of Africans occurs by U.S. war machine that we can fairly accurately say it is more than equal to a killing per day of Africans.

Keep saying it and eventually it will be true.
