You didn't read my post properly.
Nowhere did I use the words 'trust' or 'rely' in what I said.
Looking at the state of the Russian military equipment so far, its fair to assume its not the most advanced.
You can guarntee the American Intelligence will be all over these pricks. Just like the last time tracked every move and relayed for waiting ambush.
Whether you want to belive it or not, there are people in the world who are prepared to fight, and to die, for what is right in the world. Just like there are people like you, who are willing to run and hide, cower in the corner just to stay alive that minute longer. Just remember that you live your life of luxury because when the time came to fight for right, people stood and fought.
Advanced would be to kind. I saw a picture today of a Russian solder he was carrying a sniper rifle from the first world war. Incredible.
True but what are the informed thoughts on Putin (honestly have you any links to reliable , non bias informed info on Putin?).
Any of the stuff I’ve heard suggests Putin is prepared to use nuclear weapons as a threat (well he’s already done that) and at best it’s unclear if he would actually use them but most appear to suggest it unwise to underestimate his threats.
Im not suggesting we live in fear of Putin forever, but I’d rather discuss the actual threat on the table then presume it’s not a real threat cause it’s an insane thing for anybody to do. I think what Putin is doing in Ukraine and threatening pretty much everybody in the world is insane but maybe that’s just me.
Looks and sounds like an Islamic State propaganda video. They also appear to be seriously armed with some serious washing machines because my underpants seen more action today than their combat clothes.
One of the replies underneath. LOL.
This is the third lot. The first lot got wiped out, the second lot are MIA. Good luck guys I'm sure you will be fine.
But do you think we should respond to Putin like he’s bluffing about using nuclear weapons?
I don’t see an easy way to navigate him here and I don’t see an easy solution. I honestly don’t know what they should do, but whatever it is, I hope they don’t inadvertently make things worse because things can get way worse.
Pretty sad I have to say.
Exactly. So many keyboard warriors here, very easy to proclaim the virtues of fighting to the death when you don't have to live with the reality.
You're worse than the fucking Candyman you. Any mention of Trump in a negative light and you here you come prancing on your horse to white knight for him.
FFS. 🙄
Let them go to meet their maker. Must be the B team as the first crew sent came out the wrong side of things and found out what the Ukraine resistance is about.
I would be a bit worried for ordinary russian nationals here now though.
When did twitter become a credible source of information?
Western sources estimating that just under 6,000 Russian soldiers have died, and that's in 12 days of conflict. By comparison, just under 4,000 Russian soldiers were killed in the second Chechen war, over a decade, and the Americans lost just under 5,000 in the period of time called the Iraq War (2003-2011). These are extremely heavy losses for the Russians in such a short space of time. Sounds like Ukraine is becoming something of a meat grinder for the Russian army.
Best of luck to them. As always, women having to deal with men's **** in war. Hope they all survive
Honestly we can't leave putin with nukes after this.
We need to disarm russia ...
Are comparisons between this conflict and others not dismissed as whataboutery?
russia will being to increasing frantically " negoiate " with Ukraine to end the conflict , knowing everyday goes by Ukraines gets more and more men amd high tech weapons, I see the Polish are going to give them their Mig-29s and the US will resuppy Poland with F-15s. Russia has the GDP of Italy and sanctions will return it to the 1820s . Its screwed no matter where it turns
Is it just me or did he really want the ambassador and his colleagues to 'go back to Poland' ??
I salute this guy nonetheless.
he wont have the money , technology or ability to maintain them anyway , The effectiveness of these sanctions, the like of which have never ever been seen before will grind Russia into the dust
There are 200k poor souls under siege in Maripol and fastly running out of food and drinking water.
Twice the Russians have broke their own ceasefire to create a humanitarian corridor out.
How much longer can we stand idly by before the situation seriously escalates especially in Maripol.
Putin has the West over a barrel at the moment because of the 'he might use nukes' threat.
This isn't sustainable for long more, before we have to intervene by at least insisting on a no fly zone.
It must literally be the definition of the term. A lad sitting behind a keyboard in a neutral country proclaiming the virtues of fighting and dieing to take down Russia, oh, and he'll throw in his wife and kids too.
Just like you's don't have to live their reality, hiding in bunkers, your home destroyed, your livelthood gone, no future, begging for help, while the world just shrugs it's shoulders.
Whatever happens in the Ukraine war, whatever the outcome there needs to be some sort of global agreement on nuclear warheads. This is just nuts that one rogue horrible malignant c*nt can hold the entire world to ransom like this.
