You guys have a seriously twisted infatuation with pedophilia and child grooming, yere constantly on about it, its quite alarming
That's the problem Furze99, they don't have to monitor everyone, just the trouble makers.( or who they perceive as troublemakers ) and when they step out of line, make a very public example of them, multiple heavily armed police units turn up at your house/ place of work/side of the street/ bar restaurant etc. to arrest you, and they will not be too gentle either. Its a show of force meant to intimidate not only you, but anyone who witnesses it. For sure, no one will stop to help you.....People will pass hurriedly by because they don't want to join you in the police van. Then depending on your "crime" they can lock you up for awhile, incommunicado, no one knows where you are, or even if you are alive. Or mobilized, and on the way to Dunbass. The police ( all the different ones) can do this with complete impunity, despite knowing that what they are doing is completely illegal. But this is not a normal Country, its a mafia state ruled by Don Putin. A few Russian friends came with me to Europe several years ago, before Ukraine kicked off. Some had already been in Europe, but others had not. And their first question to me was " Where are the Police??? .They were amazed, several day's into the trip, and they saw police, but were not stopped once. Fast forward to the return to Moscow and Sheremetyevo Airport. Walking from the Airport to the carpark, Yup, there we were stopped by a police man for a document check. Welcome home!!! Unless you have lived in Russia and experienced it personally Furze, its very hard to understand it. But trust me, I know what it's like. If I'm walking down the Novye Arbat and I see the police making an arrest I go into reverse, and I wont be the only one either. Their power over the ordinary Russian Citizens is 100% absolute.
Mariupol is just within standard HIMARS range.
If Ukraine are confident enough to drive close to the front line, launch and retreat. Especially if there's a juicy target to hit.
150 km range with GLSDBs they don't need to be on the front lines to launch and hit Mariupol
If they have them already.
I've seen plenty of claims, zero evidence.
All the recent strikes that are claimed to be out of the range of standard HIMARS are being used as proof, but the locations hit are all within the range of the standard rockets.
Something every Russian apologist or peacenik should be forced to read. An account of what happens when the Russkiy Mir comes to your village.

If they get close enough yeah,but the strikes on Mariupol have been happening before the Biden visit too ,
But only on boards will you get people arguing it's this weapon, no it's this weapon and this tactic ,I agree with him or her ,no it couldn't be them because I said it was could be something else but not that because of someone else said
Russia was at war with Israel ?
Technically you could say via proxy's through Iran ?
That’s some read, real evil scum
how long before we see grenades strapped to dogs and forced to charge the Ukrainian lines. they tried that before in WW2
Well we'll know soon enough
There was reports early in the war about Russian soldiers eating dogs due to the quality or lack of ration packs.
Reports of them also booby trapping dogs in villages that were about to be liberated. So I wouldn't put them past you.
Meanwhile Ukrainian soldiers were evacuating pets in towns and villages being shelled. Looking after stray animals on the Frontline and sharing rations with them.
They even managed to get a dog released with a prisoner swap of soldiers.

Modi is one disgusting turd.
Organising a tax raid on BBC offices because they made a program exposing him for what he is.
The explosions in Mariupol happened over two consecutive days. Nice trick.
Oh you're so right, they can only shoot and scoot one day and not the next day /s
Lushashenko confirms the leaked story on the reunification of Belarus with Russia,said documents are three years old ...
I’m surprised they hadn’t pulled the trigger on that by now. I had always assumed that the “Union State” between Belarus & Russia was just an pretext to absorb Minsk into the Federation. I’m guessing the original intent was to create a more concrete successor to the USSR than what the fairly impotent CIS had managed to be. I think I read once that Lukashenko went into this into the 90’s believing he’s become the overall president of the Union given he was a more solid figure compared to Yeltsin at the time. But since Putin, the relationship is clearly different.
My current guess is that they’ll wait until a point of possible defeat in Ukraine before holding a “referendum” to take in Belarus, as way of deflecting local opinion to something seemingly positive, while erasing a potential new Ukraine 2.0. They can’t risk losing the strategic position that Belarus offers, and I think they’ll do what they can to hold on to it.
I’m also guessing if they had succeeded in taking Kyiv, Minsk would have been absorbed soon after. Right now they continue to be a somewhat useful “Russia, but not Russia” pawn in this fight.
Biden visited Ukraine/Kiev on the 20th ,
The first percision strikes on Russian positions in Mariupol and metiplol date to the 1st/2nd of this month,18 /19 days before Binden arrived
Wonder why Putin hasn't sent in his fighter planes up to now if he wants an end to the war quickly, he obviously doesn't care about civilian casualties so not sure whats stopping him.
Ukraine counts 299 russian aircraft and 288 russian helicopters shot down by them so far since last years attack by russia. Lots of anti aircraft missile systems make it a fairly dangerous place to send fighter planes so if he did send in more they might not last very long. putin seems to be using them more to launch cruise missiles from a distance so there is less chance of his fighter planes being shot down.
He can't afford to lose them,he can't afford to build them either,he's already let his airforce stuffer losses and Long term damage, despite some claims it's not easy or quick to train new pilots not just in the basics of flying but the more advanced training in air 2 air combat and air 2 ground combat
Have we seen this pattern before,yes,just before Ukraines last offensive
Ukraine also have Vilkha M MLRS with 130 km range,allthough not the same accuracy as HIMARS,its within 10-30 meters.
But still enough to hit large formations of armour or troops and ammo dumps.
Explosions rocked the Russian-occupied city of Mariupol in Donetsk Oblast on the night of 21 February.

Can you provide links to your claims of these precision strikes on Mariupol on the 1st and 2nd of this month?
Posted already in this thread on the 2nd of February.
That rules out Terences and your theories
I not so sure that they have any operational I've not seen any of those over the few months anywhere,
Why would they need more HiMars if they have their own home grown (soviet) systems operational
For three days straight Russian-occupied Mariupol was hit by Ukraine. But the targets were just beyond the range of the HIMARS missiles the U.S. has been supplying them with.
Nataliya Humeniuk, senior spokeswoman for the AFU’s Joint Forces South, was cryptic in a Feb. 23 statement confirming the three day strike series, saying “At this stage, we can only state that inaccessibility is a very relative concept. What is considered so remote that it is unreachable, is not always so. The direction of Mariupol is no longer completely unreachable for us.”
Nighttime blasts in and around Mariupol airport on Feb. 21 and 22, and a series of daytime strikes on Feb. 23, were widely reported in Russian-controlled information platforms, independent Ukrainian news outlets, and local social media. Some, but not all, of the accounts alleged the AFU had employed a new, long-range weapon in the strikes.
The quoted bit suggests that Ukriane previously didn't have the capability, but now does.
Yes, of course they could shoot and scoot on two cosnecutive days and then really mix it up by having a HIMARS operating in broad daylight on the front line in a third day of shoot and scoot. Lucky for the Ukrainians the Orc's never noticed and are incredibly stupid.
However, I don't believe these strikes were from a HIMARS parked on the line of conflict on three consecutive days, including in daylight, if for no other reason than the US would likely have been displeased for such stupidity.
A link to the post then.
Don't need to, it's there
