To kill some nazis...

The chin strap beard brigade seem to optimise the image of a knuckle dragging anti everything scumbag these days like you see in the dagestan video. Apes around here are copying those mutton heads in UFC MMA etc thinking their hard men, fcukin clowns.

It's the continuation of Putin's Kremlin's ability to call on the mob to wreak havoc wherever. Inside or outside Russia.

This was a warning to Israel to not pursue its warning that when Putin's boys Hamas are dealt with that the full force of the Israeli military will concentrate on helping Ukraine destroy and rid the Russian military in Ukraine.

It's a terrorist warning that the Kremlin can call on the official denialability terrorist mob to attack and kill Israeli citizens on Russian soil or perhaps even outside whenever it chooses.

The west took way too long dithering about what weaponry they would send Ukraine to help with their planned Spring Offensive.

Can we send tanks ? if we do, will it upset Putin too much and escalate the war ?

Who'll send the tanks first ? the US, Germany the UK ..who ?

Can we send ATACMS ? Yes \ No \ maybe so ? - If we do, will their deployment upset Putin and escalate the war ?

Can we send F16s - If so, will their deployment upset Putin and cause an escalation ?

Who'll send their F16s first ? - You do it, no YOU send them first...

Do we have enough 155mm shells - Yes \ No \ Maybe so ?

If we dont, can we all get together and make a plan on how the EU \ US can manufacture more ?

Can we send cluster ammunitions - NO theyre inhumane...but the US has millions of them - Oh Ok so lets send them - BUT - if we send them, will that upset Putin and cause an escalation ?

Whilst all the above was playing out, Russia had ample time to dig deep - literally - to dig trenches, lay 1000s of mines, lay dragons teeth to stop tanks and entrench gun placements.

There is not only one line of defense either, there are up to 3 with each being miles long.

The Ukrainians, if they had received the weapons they requested late last winter to prepare for their spring offensive would have gained way more territory than they have thus far in their current offensive.

Their lack of momentum lies solely with the wests dicking around on what they could and could not send to Ukraine without perhaps upsetting the poison dwarf in the kremlin.

To the Ukrainians credit though, even with the delays in weapons deliveries, they still managed to break through in places and reclaim territory that is rightfully theirs, these endeavors were way more costly in both men and machine than they should have been, again, if the west hadnt dithered like they did.

I wouldnt use the term "breakthrough" they pierced certain lines, months later there is still a line on the map right beside the village of Robotyne.

the question is always what will happen now, not dissecting the past, As that song goes, you gotta know when to hold them and when to fold them. The US are happy if Ukr keep punching Russia so wont be inclined to give Zel the tap on the shoulder as the US doesnt have any skin in the game, and Zelensky is stuck with the Macbeth problem of ...tedious as to go o'er.

The best interests of Ukrainians as of today is to minimize future deaths

How do you propose minimising future Ukrainian deaths?

Unfortunately that hasn't worked so far

assume you cant trust them, whereever the lines end up, the Ukrainians build their own reinforced lines. If anyone has learned anything from this war Ukr has learned that land invasions in the drone era is painfully expensive. Their military strategy in the future will be to turn their country into a poison pill.

I have zero sympathy for them. Anyone doing business with Russia, even before 2014, knew the risks they were taking.
