    Doubt anyone gives a sh1t what your alleged friends in russia think.🙄

    From what I remember at the time the Ukrainians offered more money for the Maraders than they were worth but scholz said they couldn't be sold , then they were sold to the Greeks for less than ukraine wanted to pay

    Nice catch, but neither Merkel or Scholz are funny. That so many world leaders are so incredibly bad (Trump, Sco Mo, Bush, Orban, Howard, Erdogan, Duterte, Blair, Ahern...) just firms my belief democracy isn't a great idea, as the type of people who want to run countries are mostly the sort of people you should least want to be running countries.

    Zelensky is such an exception we all know how amazing an exception he is.

    Nope. 30 years after the fall of the iron curtain, any resentment and bitterness on the Russian side is entirely their own fault and no one else's.

    It's feeling more and more like a siege mentality now,

    Lol, they aren't under siege, no one wants to invade Russia. They are the invaders.

    If anyone thinks an invading force is "under siege" then let then be damned along with Putin and the other gangsters who "currently" rule Russia



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,395 ✭✭✭✭Furze99


    If this is true - it's good news.

    Because it means that the message is getting through to ordinary Russians. That they are now regarded as pariahs & terrorists, that their economy is tanking and that their military is being slowly defeated.

    Finally they might do something about it, if they feel this way.

    Right, I've given much thought to Russia's concerns vis-á-vis the multi hundred killing of invaders at the educational facility, and Putin's personal request (demand?) for a ceasefire. And my considered response is FCUK OFF RUSSIA!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,421 ✭✭✭Wolf359f


    I'm not sure about the coms being the issue or the shipping. Needless to say there's almost a certainly Scholz will say the Marders will need months and months of refurbishment etc...

    But if the goal is a spring offensive by Ukraine, once they recieve them all by then it should make an impact. Personally I'd love to see them arrive ASAP

    Things are definitely looking up for Ukraine (equipment wise) this year and we're only a week into it!

    Watching one of the vox pop videos from Russia (not 1420) recorded around New Year's Day and there was a general air of pessimism and gloom in the air and no sense that the war would end any time soon or that there is even any real hope that Russia might 'win' it.

    Looks like state propaganda is not working. The Russian public know they are in a right spot and things are not going to plan (reminds me a bit of the mood in Nazi Germany post-Stalingrad....apparently most people were down and pessimistic and no longer listening to the state slogans).

    Its what happens to any state where the mafia is in charge, and world wide, Russia is one of the best if not the actual best example of that.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45 Mar53


    You're kidding, right? This has been common knowledge for 8 years...8 years. That's when all this basically started. The people in Eastern Ukraine (mostly Ukrainians and Russians) did not support the US-puppet we illegally installed (Petro Poroshenko). Because they didn't bow down to that fake president, that's when things started to really boil over to another level. That's basically when the bombing and shelling of Eastern Ukraine started. Approximately 14,000 mostly Ukrainian and Russian men, women, and children have died since then. The people of Donbas (especially Lugansk and Donetsk) have been crying for 8 years to the international community for help. If it wasn't for Russia sending in contracted (or official, or both) forces, the people of Eastern Ukraine would have been decimated long ago in what was basically a slow genocide going on.

    I don't even understand how people can be discussing the Ukrainian situation and not even know anything about the coup in 2014 that kicked most of this off, not to mention the people of Eastern Ukraine standing up and resisting the coup and then being shelled and bombed for 8 years (and counting).

    U forgot about the billionss invested in the west ,eg London.also investing in and following certain sports that cost millions to get involved in eg soccer and and and and—————. Maybe it’s the only place /activity that will hide their DIRTY money??



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,077 ✭✭✭✭cnocbui


    Lol; little green men and BUKs crossing the border and definetely not murdering a plane load of Australians and Dutch innocents.

    Your edited and deceiptful version of history I'd shelve next to Harry Potter books.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,012 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe


    Wow.

    Poroshenko was elected in 2014 and received around 54% of the vote in an election widely considered free and fair. Polls in 2014 showed that people in Eastern Ukraine wanted some autonomy from Kyiv but a majority didn't want to "join" Russia. The Kremlin proxy invaded the East of Ukraine that year using fringe separatists as cover. The people in Eastern Ukraine never had a choice.

    There was no "coup" in 2014, that's more direct Kremlin propaganda. Likewise your mentions of "genocide". Embarrassing some are still parroting this stuff after all this time.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45 Mar53


    100k+ dead? Those are ridiculous numbers spouted by Ukrainian and Western media. Not only that, but that almost certainly way over-inflated number was stated as 100k dead and wounded (and wounded numbers are usually way more than deceased). So, sorry, you're twisting words and basically making up lies.

    I'm not sure if that response is towards me but I never said Russia destroyed all the HIMARS. LOL. Not only that, but the 5 HIMARS I read were reported destroyed were in RESPONSE to the new years eve attack, not before it. So, again, you're attacking me by making up lies and responding to things I never said but that you rather are lying about and making up that I said.

    ??? I never said anything about the Russian military being so "stronk" (I'm guessing you meant to say strong?). I also never said anything about the Russian economy. Maybe you were replying to some one else and not me, if that's the case then my bad.

    Speaking of propaganda, how's the "Ghost of Ukraine" or the "Snake Island" lies going? Ghost of Ukraine was completely made up, Snake Island situation was a clear lie as the Ukrainian soldiers were clearly taken captive (later admitted by Ukraine and also shown in tons of videos) rather than being brutally murdered like we were lead by Ukrainian and Western mainstream media to believe. I could go on with a ton of other fantastical stories perpetuated in the mainstream media, lol.

    Speaking of propaganda, how's the "Ghost of Ukraine" or the "Snake Island" lies going?

    The "ghost of Ukraine" is propaganda, the Ukrainians have openly said this. It's a country that is being invaded, it's only natural they used certain stories to keep morale up.

    Snake Island was not a "lie", its defenders refused to surrender to Russian forces, they famously told the Russian warship to go "**** itself", and since their position was attacked and communication was cut it to the best of everyone's knowledge they were dead. That was the information at the time. Later it emerged the defenders survived the attack and were captured. This was universally reported as it was discovered.

    Considering the fantastical Russian propaganda you've already been sharing looking forward to your other "fantastical stories", please do share..



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,543 ✭✭✭Virgil°


    Please do go on..... I love when these beligerent oh so subtle pro Russian accounts show up trashing this number and that achievement. Just like when the Russian government loudly proclaims that sanctions aren't working. It just confirms that they are. If they truly didn't care they wouldn't bother saying anything.

    It warms my heart to see accounts like these show up shortly after a few hundred Russian invaders and a building full of ammo are vaporised. After it seems like the Wagners are running out of options to actually take Bakhmut a single strategically unimportant pile of rubble. It confirms that things really ARE going that badly for the russians.

    The actual content of your post is entirely familiar and forgettable. I haven't even read most of it.

    But rest assured your presence here is heartening. That Russia are losing, will continue to lose and will eventually completely lose. So thank you very much for showing up comrade.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,421 ✭✭✭Wolf359f


    So you have a source for this 'illegal coup' or not? Would be very easy to provide if it's been common knowledge and not lies.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,012 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe


    The history of Ukraine according to the Russian ministry of truth and Clare Daly.

    His (Russia's) whole argument stems from this 'illegal coup'.

    I'm starting to think a president who the people don't like and peacefully protest against, then gets legally removed from office by the legally and democratically elected members of parliament could be seen as an 'illegal coup' by the dictator next door.

    Hard for Russians to understand what a democracy is, I guess 🤷‍♂️



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,461 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    You cannot actually believe the sh1te you spout in these posts can you? Like seriously, it's absolute nonsense.

    The people of Eastern Ukraine were invaded by little green men (who we all know are Russian) and stole the region.

    Russia is the aggressor, a terrorist state and it will be brought down by it's actions in Ukraine.

    All eyes on Kursk. Slava Ukraini.

    Mappers claim Ukrainians have retreated to heavily fortified city centre in Soledar, yielding Bakhmutske and lower half of Soledar as Wagnerites move north and south of the city



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,461 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    Seems accurate. Been reported by a few sources this morning via reddit channels.

    But sometimes with the Zerg advances, they take an area, get blasted and UAF roll back in. Could be a wider version or that or UAF may be in serious trouble and may need to consider a temporary withdraw to regroup.

    All eyes on Kursk. Slava Ukraini.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,291 ✭✭✭✭Gatling


    Pretty much as bakhmut,

    Move a few meters suddenly the tide is turning, until Ukrainian artillery starts to rein down



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,823 ✭✭✭✭Mr. CooL ICE


    I asked for sources about 2014 being a US backed coup and Ukraine killing its own civilians, but instead I got a nonsense rant.

    That which is presented without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 287 ✭✭dennis72


    US involvement in Ukrainian affairs is made up by putin bots

    All kicked off when Ukrainian govt reject closer ties with the west and choose Russia at the last minute the people rose up just like they are now



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,395 ✭✭✭✭Furze99


    You're quite right - this has been common knowledge for 8 years... 8 years..... to those who have religiously watched RT.
