That's nothing, just wait until they find out it was some of their own who bombed it.
It is an irony that the Russians invented this thing in the first place-
There's actually been rumours in that direction. Initial regime response to the bridge bombing was quite 'odd', as if they were very unsure who to publicly blame.
I suppose it's unlikely to be attacked when full of civilians, meet the new dolphins.....
I think Russia will have a cold winter this year without revenue from Europes oil and gas from Russia.

My thoughts exactly, 1918 called and said ‘they’re grand’, they don’t want their failed strategy back.
The Maginot line worked, it encouraged the Germans to go through Belgium where the French were expecting to fight.
Nothing wrong with digging an entrenched position, that's why we have engineers. In Russian doctrine (and frankly, Western doctrine), defensive positions exist in order to (a) attrit enemy attacks to allow counter-offensive operation,and (b) reduce manning requirements for one sector of the line to allow for offensive operations in another sector.
The banality of evil...
To carry out an execution of civilians and to throw their body into a pit is bad enough - but to then twist that on its head and pretend that it was actually carried out by the victim's side and use the footage for propaganda like this - it's just plain evil. There's no other word for it.

Yeah that looks fake
Now that you mention it...
10x the speed of sound yet you can clearly see it in each frame. The depot is 136m underground.... 400 feet.... And blows up almost instantly (the missile travels faster through the ground than through the air?)
Why ya posting old videos?
They'll be full of snow and water in the next few weeks. Nothing like wading through knee deep **** to keep your morale high. They can always look forward to a change of clothes and a hot meal every evening though....oh wait
Zelenskyy wants the international community to police the border with Belarus.
IIRC the Germans hit them both in Belgium and through the Ardennes. Pincer movement and all that. It could be argued that if anything the Maginot line made that easier. Kept enough troops defending it and made a pocket where your enemy made one side of it. Unless Russia makes it run the length of "their" territory it's going to be bypassable.
I suppose Russia is counting on no direct NATO involvement, because that position wouldn't last too long if everything behind it was target. It would be a handy aiming point if nothing else. They seem to be expecting more than small bands of Ukrainian military. Or the simpler reasoning might be this is now "our border"? They have previous with Berlin and East Germany. They like an oul wall.
What I have noticed and what with all their talk of "nazis", the Russian spin makes little effort to tone down their rhetoric including clearly genocidal rhetoric. The actual German nazis tended to sugar coat it, or directly obscure their intent much more. Just enough for most of the war to keep some sort of plausible deniability among their population, even though a large proportion had at least an idea of what was afoot. The Russians just don't seem to care. That internet meme of "are we the baddies" could well have come up at least in the earlier parts of WW2 for Germans, but it's barely on the radar of the Russian spin machine. Full holy war, warts and all, kill all our enemies, zero sense of self awareness stuff. And worse it's getting.
Zelensky calls at the G7 summit for an international monitoring mission on the border with Belarus
Thats why I continue to refer to them as Orcs, despite objections.
They found anther one...
The SBU discovered a new torture chamber of Rashists near one of the largest shrines in Donetsk region
Employees of the Security Service discovered a place of illegal detention of people in liberated Sviatohirsk, Donetsk region. The torture chamber was set up in a recreation boarding house not far from the Sviatohirskaya Lavra.
The Russian military forcibly detained local residents there who supported the territorial integrity of Ukraine.
In many ways, Russki propaganda is far more radical and hysterical than that of the Nazis. They openly talk of potential war crimes and attacking civilian targets, something that even Goebbels didn't go near.
Which suggests he's getting worried about Belarus getting involved directly despite the repeated claims on here they won't.
For the Russians, truth and falsehood, good and evil, are just means to an end. And the end is to bully people into submission. Tyrannies are ultimately weak because they crush people's creativity and freedom of spirit which are necessary for true strength - and strength is more than brute force.
And for comparison the pre-Afghan invasion, infant /mother deaths need to be included. They were massive, and only imoroved aftre the arrival of the US and allies, who rebuilt, staffed and supplied the hospitals with medicine, equipment etc. They also paid the bills associated with the operation of the Hospitals.
тревожно (anxious)
And many were caused by mine's left after the Russians, and these are still causing death and injurys in Afghanistan even to the present day. Only for the UN and NATO doing mine clearance, the death / injury toll would be far higher. But no mention of any of this.
With the first Iris-T delivery, Ukraine will receive a defense system that the Bundeswehr itself does not yet have. The first so-called fire unit was actually intended for Egypt , which commissioned several systems from Diehl Defence. Cairo now ceded a system to Ukraine.
Germany are now the first country to deliver a modern air defence system to Ukraine.

Exactly. That and their increasingly shrill and apocalyptic stuff is crazy town indeed. No matter how this war ultimately goes in my opinion Russia needs to be completely frozen out by the rest of the world politically and economically until they soften their cough and those who support them need to get with that programme or get frozen out too.
