Ukrainian drones are busy
So you are posting "for fun" ,,I am sure there's other words for that...
It's a poster banned from the original thread trying to spam as much pro-Russian stuff before they get caught or reported. Door dash style.
I see the Kinahans are looking at the possibility of legging it to Russia since Irelands agreement to an extradition treaty with UAE.
I'm loath to see any more troops arrive at Ukraines border but it would be poetic if those bunch of knuts ended up being drafted.
I understand the concern some may think the mods are too pro-active, but if numerous regular posters make a complaint about an individual their concerns should be considered.
It should be fairly obvious where someone isn’t genuine, and posting just to get their ‘jollies’, seeking attention. Case in point^^^.
Would save us a lot of court costs and such if they had an unfortunate encounter with a Ukrainian drone....
Report that ammunition factory supplying putin's terrorists was targeted by Ukraine over night:

Reminds me of Russion prisoners being released... send to Ukraine and then later causing havoc when back in Russia again
The mind boggles
Here are some folk who had a well deserved encounter with Ukrainian drones and other weapons
Or a Russian one, I'm not fussy :D
The night before the battle of Thermopalye, Xerces send a messenger to the Spartans saying: "surrender now and become my vassal, because if we defeat you in battle we will kill you all, raize your lands, kill your children, take your wives and the world will forget the name "Sparta""
Leonidas replied: "if".
The next day the Spartans all died, but Xerces didnt raize their lands, kill their children, take their wives and the world did not forget the name "Sparta".
Im not accusing you of being a Russian sympathiser, but what the Russian sympathisers cant understand is the type of man Zelemskyy is, and the type of people the Ukranians are.
Fairly sure that you're mixing up your Spartan campaigns. Leonidas said "Come and take them"
It was in response to Philip of Macedon 120 years later that they responded "if"
Start 'em young!

This must be a new daily record.
More good news
How are Russia still in this fight.
6 days worth of North Koreans.

I believe they were provoked by all of those Western nations, their political leaders and armies of athletes invading Russia to hold completely unwanted and unbought World Cups and Winter Olympics.
The idea that the West wanted to militarily threaten Russia is nonsense. If anything, NATO's eyes had been completely diverted east towards China. Russia was almost an annexation of the West, with its vast wealth, sponsorship of European sports teams, tournaments, purchasing of luxury properties, holidaying in sun spots all along the Med. Putin courted all of that, and it worked. Europe and the US were almost embracing Russia. You even have that odious lump of lard Trump singing Putin's praises.
There was no threat. No provocation. People in the West had almost forgotten NATO existed.
Subcontracting.
The BBC has a much more sober evaluation of Russian casualties.

Only 70,000 dead? I can't keep track… thought it was much higher than that? I know I've tried to clarify things on here before when people bandied about sensationalist figures like "500,000 casualties" knowing full well that not every casualty is a death. But I was sure the figures for dead were much higher than 70,000 even months ago. Where does that leave Ukraine's claims of nearly 700,000 casualties? Is a 1:10 ratio normal?
"We have identified the names of 70,112 Russian soldiers killed in Ukraine, but the actual number is believed to be considerably higher. Some families do not share details of their relatives’ deaths publicly - and our analysis does not include names we were unable to check, or the deaths of militia in Russian-occupied Donetsk and Luhansk in eastern Ukraine."
Shows why the reported figure is so low, it is only those who are confirmed by name and who's families are willing to display that.
It likely won't include any of the Wagner group, who at one point we're making up a disproportionate amount of Russian casualties.
The true number will be hard to ascertain, but it is likely to be multiples or 70,000.
This is a Ukrainian report on a US leak ,so whatever the hell that means ,

This is UK MOD 's estimate ,

It may be higher but "multiples"? I don't believe that at all and no credible observers believe it either.
That seems to fit in with reality we see on the frontlines. If the figures posted daily here (which are patently ridiculous) were remotely accurate Ukraine would be winning this war.
Nobody has any idea how many have been killed or wounded in reality. We still have people putting out the 1000 a day figure which is obvious wishful thinking and any credible source has dismissed.
”It may be higher”: no, it IS higher if they only counted the ones where they had confirmation by name.
Who these credible observers you mention?
Yeah, that's true in fairness. Just a bit odd that they'd run with that kind of headline/ angle on the report. They're almost downplaying the results of their own investigations.
