No they havent, nothing short of assassinating Putin would lead to nuclear options.
Putin deploying Nukes would mean the end of Russia, and most of the Western world.
Doubt it
If that's accurate, then that bridge is totally fcuked and out of commission for a fair while...... Particularly when the repair base with the equipment was blown up last week lol
Retaliation for what though? Apparently she wasn't even that well known in Russia.....she would be the type of young hothead who would occasionally show up on GB News if she was in the UK. She would be a bizarre assassination choice for the Ukrainians.
She's not in the ground yet and the bs is coming fast
No so much criminality, more that she was trying to muscle into the political arena . . . which as you remember from previous Oligarchs falling out of their luxury penthouse apartment windows to a 'not in any way suspicious' deaths was Putins way of reminding people that politics was his 'thing' and that the Oligarchs should keep to stealing from the private industry, stealing from the Russian state was Putins exclusive area of operation.
Again, from the tweet Darya Dugina comes across as bit naive, openly attacking Sergei Shoigu, he hasn't survived in Putins inner court up until now without getting some blood on his hands . . .
lol
I would have thought an assassination attempt (especially a successful one) would be welcomed by literally all parties involved (on both sides), with be exception of some mercenary groups who enjoy wars.
She forgot she was playing senior hurling not camogie
Thanks for posting. Checked out some of his other stuff also, good non propaganda driven taken on the situation. Breath of fresh air.
I honestly think Putin is more likely to go the chemical attack route and see how much he can get away with.
Sarin gas attack perhaps?
They should have waited until the trucks were on the bridge....more bang fir your buck.....🙂
"Russia's taking a lot of territory lately". Yet others in the media are usually saying they're stalled for over a month and even ready to pull back from some areas?
Because they are. The intricacies of war and the exact front lines are obviously going to be hard to pin down, and in many cases don't even necessarily make sense when things are fluid. But the general outline of the front is studied by many institutions and generally can be backed up by intel and OSINT. They are taking a lot of territory by the definition of a property mogul trying to gain control of downtown, not by the definition of an invading army. We are talking a few kms a week at times - it is utterly anaemic. There is no hidden, secret massive Russian advance going on.
An identity card conveniently linking her to the Azov regiment? How simplistic & crude can you get, shows what they think their own citizens will gullibly swallow.
They are taking towns and villages albeit incrementally and at great cost. But they are taking them. Hopefully things are about to turn in Ukraine's favor soon.
Ok...better check my wallet....
.....good to go
Mighty sound effects
An advancing army is not always a winning army. Germany were making huge territorial advances on the eastern front( all the way to Rostov on don) throughout 1917 and 1918 of a much greater magnitude than Russian advances today . Didn’t count for anything by November 1918.
That would have my thinking for a strike,
Russia are very much still stalled in the overall grand scheme of things. Advancing at a snails pace at heavy cost for incremental ribbons of ground isn't any great triumph, every advance requires costly assaults and more manpower to hold and police the new territory as well.
Maybe intel was something else was in the trucks. Would not put it passed the Russians to have civilians in them.
I'd question the actual area of control on the advances they make. Lot of partisans in occupied land.
If he really was the intended target and it was an inside job, then "heart attack" could mean anything.
On the other hand, it could be true. Obnoxious as he may be, I'm sure he loved his daughter and it's a pretty horrendous thing to have witnessed as a parent. The husband of one of the US mass shooting victims died recently from a heart attack a day or two after the event
It didn't count for anything cause they lost in the West though. Germany defeated Russia.
For sure they are. But they are not large towns and they are not far from each other.
It may not be quite WW1 trenches static, but its closer to that than it is to WW2 frontlines. They really, really aren't advancing at any appreciable pace at all.
Looks like the Azoz battalion ID card has already been debunked as a fake(nothing we didn't already know)
A forensics expert on Twitter says the ID card is clearly a photoshop. He has been analysing the image using advanced software and can see obvious evidence of where the FSB were creating the image.
The front is how long Podge? Over a thousand kms? A few Kms per week adds up on that scale.
It's quite amazing how the Russian police were able to pin down a name within not much more than 24 hours in this case, yet the list of "unsolved" murders and "accidental" deaths of Putin's enemies falling out of windows and suicide by multiple stab wounds, in the back, can go on for years and years...
