Russia - threadbanned users in OP

Welcome to a discussion forum,I'm not here to whore for likes , ukraine for some is nothing more than a trend #slavi Ukrani, people will move on I've been following and posting about ukraine for the last 10 years and likely will be still posting about ukraine in another ten years ,

People getting banned that's nothing to do with me take it up with the mods or start a thread, troll's be trolls welcome to the internet,I've been on this thread since day one ,and few others who make up the absolute majority of the posts whether it be an informed well put together opinion or parroting social media,

For instance we can celebrate 200,000 dead Russians while at the same time realizing that likely means 150,000 dead Ukrainians there is several people who have zero interest in anything but what they read on social media,

But welcome to the internet wiki and social media

There is nothing to discuss. Ukraine is a rare topic of conversation because everyone I know has the same opinion. Russian's government are still scumbags? Don't need to have that discussion on a daily basis to still support more weapons going to the Ukrainians. There is just not much to discuss unless you want to get into the nitty gritty of missile systems, most people just see it as more weapons heading over and think grand.

I remember when Europe was meant to back off in the winter due to a reliance on Russian gas. Well it is now the following summer and Ukraine still stands tall against the Russians. The weapons are not going to stop heading over to help the Ukrainians.

Now it is apathy and what happens in the US presidential election in a year and a half. I think they realised giving too solid a date in the short term just results in being proven wrong quicker.

610 soldiers + 95! pieces of equipment destroyed yesterday.

Yes we're were all going to be frozen to Death in our beds and at the time we had people on here crying about it ,and demanding Ukraine surrender or let Russia keep the occupied territories,

I never agreed and or suggested it ,it was me who said Crimea or nothing when it comes down to the end game , weapons are arriving slowly, in cases painful slowly even to the point the likes of the president of the Czech republic has publicly stated they are low on certain ammunitions especially artillery,we know Ukraine was promised 1 million rounds of artillery for this year we're halfway through may and they Europe are still discussing it ,the elections in America could cause well cause problems in the mid to long term depending on how things play out for all we know Biden won't live long enough to see out another term, apathy will be an issue but with the cost of living crisis, inflation and other local issues which could cause the biggest problem in the longer term especially when people start asking why our money is been sent to Ukraine in weapons which then have to be replaced and the while people are struggling to put food on their tables ,

No idea what your talking about.

Don't think anyone other than a few trolls believe the Ukrainans are incompetent and have zero morale,

Biden is unlikely to die in the next 6 years and we'll that is a long time for Russia to keep this war going in any case. He is old but he is still pretty healthy for his age.

Yes European politicians will take a while to do anything. That is always the way and the price of democracy. The Ukraine won't get 1 million shells but they will get some of it.

We already have a cost of living issue the amount of weapons to Ukrainians won't fix it and politicians know it. Conceding would be far worse for their image at this stage making them look weak.

A stronger support would save more lives but there isn't a chance that Russia can out produce the west. Their best chance was to win quickly and they failed.

The problem is that a million shells is only about 2700 a day, even if guided, it's nothing in reality.

Ukraine's firmest allies in the Baltics have pointed out that shell production needs to be multiplied by 7 at least.

The Ukrainian Ministry of Defence has pointed has pointed out the ammunition shortfall many times. These are not anti Ukrainian people.

Training Ukrainian forces in Western planes is very welcome, they should have been trained last summer, and have the planes months ago.

There is 2 problems. Much of the West wants to give just enough to Keep them going and most of the West still hasn't bothered ramping up arms production as a vital strategic interest.

The West is short of ammunition just supplying against the poorly led and resourced Red Army of Russia.

What about the much more serious bigger Communist brother in China, the Kremlin's key ally and a growing significant global threat.

It really is past time for most of Europe to take this seriously.

Russia can't outproduce the West, if the West makes any effort at all. That's not happening though, maybe next year or the year after.

They were previously posted on this very thread,but yet you only seem to post about me and run away for weeks ..

Why .....

Biden Could go tomorrow, now in saying that someone will pop up and suggest I said he would die on a specific time,date and from a specific cause ,

They are getting weapons at the rate claimed this is undisputed except by 2-3 individuals on here who seem to think Europe running factories day and night producing weapons for ukraine when they are not,

While Russia can't out produce the west the west isn't exactly out producing anyone at the moment,and this is a problem probably one of the biggest problems for ukraine, what's been promised isn't being delivered,

The Big talk here is F16s despite F16s barely making the top 10 of requested weapons and equipment,

But F16s will change the war,no they won't not unless they received multiple squadrons of them along with the tech to keep the flying

The Russians are furious that Ukraine have been buying and using Turkish made cluster munitions against them.

I have visited Ukraine many times, as recently as Aug 2021 and have travelled around the country by car, Odesa, Lviv, etc. I never came across any checkpoints, where did you come across them?

The Russian propaganda narrative has several consistent themes. 

1. The West will grow tired of the war and abandon Ukraine

2. Ukraine cannot sustain resistance

3. A Russian victory is inevitable.

All of these are clearly false. The truth is:

1. The West is vastly wealthier and more technologically advanced than Russia, the EU alone could support Ukraine.

2. Ukraine will fight even without Western support

3. All military evidence to date is that a Russian defeat is inevitable.
