Russia-Ukraine War (continuing)

??What's putin's next red line for starting WW3?

US state department says that no policy changes have been made regarding long range missile strikes into Russia.

1. ⁠Russia said that all occupied Ukrainian territories are now the russia proper (tho hilariously calling new colonies new Russia)
2. ⁠Ukraine hits occupied territories with all kinds of weapons from the day 1. With the delivered weapons including ATACMS and Scalp/Storm Shadow - also from the day of delivery.

3... Three years later

• USA / UK etc allows to strike Russia proper with ATACMS.
• Russia said that it will be a huge escalation.
• Hence Russia doesn’t consider some parts of Russia to be Russia and whole war is based on lies

Crazy stuff going on at the moment as Ukraine try to rally the world to defeat Sauron and Nato seem to have gone off on one also.

It must be all this new news coming in from the battlefield coming out, especially from Kursk which looks like it is turning into the debacle that a couple predicted a few weeks ago.

Incredible really, it's like being at the movies. Lord of the rings, Braveheart, star wars, harry potter, shawshank redemption and invisible Koreans.

Like they didn't "want" Belarus but somehow there's a dictator there propped up by Russia?

A Russia who captured Ukraine without Ukraine putting up a fight, as you seem to want them to do, with Ukraine's resources, military etc as a vassal state is a totally different threat to one crippled by Ukraine's resistance. Resistance possible due to the commitment of the people of Ukraine but also the military and financial assistance provided by US, NATO, EU, the West.

The war in Ukraine is caused by Russia to all our detriment. Russia's violations of the Budapest agreement started when Ukraine was considering signing a treaty with the EU. Nothing to do with the US. Nothing to do with NATO.
Russia sees Ukraine as a vassal state.

If conflict had anything to do with a real threat to Russia from NATO, Russia would not have stripped its forces from NATO borders to send to Ukraine.

Russia have done it over and over again and people still falling for their lies.

The only war mongers are those in the Kremlin and those who seek to reward them for their illegal war.

They're genuinely running out of them. No restrictions on the weapons is mainly it. Outside of that maybe tomahawk or other longer range missiles?

Believe it or not, there are worse things than war.

Anyone else enjoying “Friends of Russia” furiously producing scutter 💩 while nervously looking up at the sky 🚀 ?

Day 1000 of the war and we have gems of wisdom being deposited along lines of “Russia didnt want Ukraine and they still dont”, yeh they just spent three years and over 700k casualties for the laugh of it

Best chance for Ukraine to "win" the war is for a total economic and political collapse in Russia. If the soldiers don't get paid and hence just go home to their families.

Makes me wonder would the ATACMS be best used on military stockpiles, or to further diminish the Russian economy, e.g. on oil refineries and so on.

One of the 7 GRAU arsenal's was hit last night. Over 100KM into Russia. Given it's proximity to Ukraine I wouldn't say it was as packed as the others they hit but a decent explosion none the less.

Coincidence this comes just after they received permission? I hope it's ATACAMS so they're not strictly limited to Kursk itself. Belgorod, Kursk, Bryansk. No reason why they would limit them here especially when Russia literally has an active incursion into Kharkiv from Belgorod.

Probably the best way to win this. Strangle Russian resupply, logistics and weapons storage. Cant fight if they cant shoot.

Looks like things are escalating as Putin signs into law it's new nuclear doctrine.

A good thread on various Russian issues. No wonder the official Kremlin line to their followers is Ukraine must stop fighting and settle for peace. Don't arm them save lives.

1. Putin didn't really want to invade all of Ukraine
2. Putin isn't a threat to the rest of Europe
3. America to blame

Signed Putin
