Rain stops in Donbas tomorrow, good weather forecast from the weekend, possibly a bigger Russian push on the region, will see
Find a rat, feed it a bit of the food, if rat dies don't eat the rest of the food.
Edit: meanwhile Russia has gone to great expense and effort to fail to kill you, and you've been eating the good food that didn't kill the rat.
Might be a bit difficult to organise the exact foodstuffs to match the drop in a warzone. It would be very easy to come up with a system to circumnavigate this especially when they can still easily communicate with the outside world.
And you have a new friend and trusty side kick "ratboy"
the Ukraine has the majority of tanks in the country now, can they make them work is the question
Do we know that all the Russian battalions originally in the North have reorganised and dispersed through the South East or is that still a work in progress?
It'd be good to have a reliable impression as to the levels and position of the Russian manpower, artillery etc in the south-east at this stage of their war.
So they can have civil War for generations?
Or maybe they’re allowed get it wrong. Don’t forget, a lot of people were even questioning Biden/US intelligence as close as days before the war.
It was recently reported that outside provisions were getting in to Mariupol even though it’s blockaded. I understood that to mean food and ammo.
I’d guess with so many at the steel plant, it must have its own source of water. The city water has allegedly been cut off for over a month.
Is there a pro Russian rally planned for 9th May and anyone know if Z jeep fella will be there?
Asking for a few friends.
This graph I'd imagine matches the rise in oligarchy. And thus their money and influence outside of Russia. Would be interesting to track the fortunes of certain German politicians and policy makers against the same period.
If Putin says no to storming the Azovstal steel plant I half expect that will exactly happen tomorrow. The Phoenix Ghost drone system could be an excellent addition and a better option than aircraft. Aircraft and tanks only provide Russia with targets I am afraid. I have not got a clue what could be done for the poor souls holding out in the steelworks.
Fair enough 😊
Do they do any reruns of MacGyver on Netflix or any of those services?
I wonder if Russia has any forces that would agree to storm an entrenched position. Might be saving face saying they are choosing not to storm it.
I love immigration, I love all colours and creeds coming into the country. I get a buzz working with people not from here and seeing them play GAA and be very good at it and equally be not great but it's the taking part that counts.
I **** hate and I mean hate when people come here, set up businesses and fire it back in our faces. I hate when people get so cocky they show disdain towards the country that had provided them opportunity. I hate when they stand on the side of wrong . I hate when they have access to all the free media in the world and chose to blindly follow the media of the aggressors.
The Irish people would be doing a severe injustice to our Ukrainian friends by just standing aside and letting these people walk out streets.
50 years from now, I can see Z being disposed from the alphabet and up there with the Swastika. As I type untold atrocities are being committed. They will only come to light in years from now.
I know what you mean about people spitting on the very freedoms they enjoy, unfortunately if you start deciding who can gather and who can't you're dismantling your own freedoms. Anyway, give these clowns enough rope and they'll probably break some hate speech law that they can be nicked for.
As for banning the letter "Z"...just think of the carnage this would inflict on Scrabble scores...
Towards the end of the Vietnam war some American units were flat out refusing to carry out some orders, or else negotiating with officers about what they would and wouldn't do or haggling over how certain tasks would be carried out, with officers wary of pushing it for fear of being "fragged". It's not beyond possibility that parts of the Russian army has reached this point.
Except that any food drones that fall into Russian hands, will be eaten...
Of course the Germans wanted Ukrainian grain...so do we.Ukraine exports grain and the Germans wanted access to it.
However grain does not plant and harvest itself..starving the Ukrainians who plant and harvest it would have been ridiculous and never happened.
All the famines in Ukraine were when it was under Soviet rule the last one in 1946 long after the Germans were gone...there were no famines in Ukraine during the German occupation, some food shortages caused by the war yes but no famines.
The Moskva saga just keep on giving ,
This wasn't spotted on flight radar ....
That has happened.
It shouldn't be just allowed to continue unhindered. When have these fcuks ever held a May 9th commemoration in Ireland before. A counter rally should be held. 100k anti war demonstrators surround these clowns and the Gardai should remove any facist symbols they chose to display. If a few cars got turned upside down it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world either.
No I don't believe that's true at all frankly. And I think it's that type of watery thinking that causes alot of problems. We have various laws to protect the wider Public , public good and minorities. If people are the absolute anthesis of the aspirations of a nation then no they shouldn't pass a citizenship test nor should they remain there. Cheerleading Nazism should be a means lose acquired citizenship or be fined or prison time.
Being watery on the important things means the smaller things leech in.
This is some fairly large stat. Goes against all of the pronunciations of Russian power in the east that people were making.
I read they were using 60 year old stock Rocket Propelled Grenades, each with 3D Printer made stability fins added similar to that picture so they drop straight like aerial bombs, instead of having a long arcing trajectory if used from a grenade launcher.
It's certainly cute engineering if true, but cunning invention during war is as old as the hills.
Agree with it being infuriating watching Russians living in this country openly showing their support of what their country's forces are currently doing to Ukraine.
Don't really agree that the letter Z will be dropped from the alphabet for the reason that Russia is currently using it as an ominous symbol. By applying a dash of common sense, we can easily work out if it's being used as a sign of support for Russia in Ukraine or it being a letter used to spell a word.
People are nearly forgetting too that Ukraine and its armed forces are fully mobilised and in a state of war - Russia on the other hand claims not to be even at war and that this is no different to peacetime.
Should rather get a good lawyer and prepare their evidence for the internation court in Hague
