  1. @John C. Smith To denazify, I would recommend starting with the fascists in Russia who are sending troops into a sovereign democracy based on Russians' feeling of ethnic superiority.

  2. Russia is trying to gaslight that the bridges are undamaged. Do they know the milblogers can just buy Chinese satellite photos?
    28
  3.  @randomdude2832  So Russia's plan was to park a convoy of tanks and troop on a highway outside of Kiev in hope that the Ukrainians will use up their ammunition attacking the sitting ducks? Sounds like a dumb plan.
    21
  4. 43 Heads of States attended last year, while only 17 attended this year. Only Russians would see visiting deputy diplomats as an accomplishment instead of an obvious snub.
    21
  5. ​ @davidmiller5028  The Russians can't even tell the difference between a tank and a tractor

  6. If he cared about affordable housing, then he would live in an apartment instead of owning three homes.

  7. It is also the Saudis' duty to protect pilgrims, so some restrictions on travel are needed to to make sure the crowds aren't dangerously large or there is enough available hotels for pilgrims.

  8. Who cares what Hillary Clinton has to say?

  9. Russia trying to recreate its air campaign in Syria where it crushed the civilian population's will to fight. However, the difference is that Syrian fighters lost hope because they didn't have the ability to fight back. Meanwhile, the Ukrainian army is ready to advance against Russian lines.

  10. @anonymousone6075 They literally show a video of Russia bombing civilians with cluster munitions

  11. Another "Brit" with an IP in St Petersburg.

  12.  İbrahim Moncada  How is Russia supposed to take Odessa when they can't even keep their own flag ship from sinking? Ukraine claims they sank it with a missle, while Russia claims they sank it themselves due to their own incompetence. Either way, Russia seems unable to accomplish anything beyond 40 miles from the Russian or Crimean border.

  13. And large American corporations took advantage of economy of scale to beat smaller companies in Europe and Asia.

  14. What happens to a Abram that drives over a minefield? Pretty much the same thing that happens to any tank that drives over a minefield.
    7
  15. Using cluster munitions to clear a path through a minefield isn't going to make the field more dangerous.

  16. If Bernie Sanders believed in half of what he says, then he wouldn't be getting rich selling a $30+ book on Amazon.

  17.  Jerry Naylor  The difference is that Ukraine has been preparing for war since 2014. Belarus has only been putting resources towards state security to further suppress dissent. I also imagine their military has the same corruption issues as Russia's military.

  18. The only thing left is long range rockets, advance drones, and fighter jets. Fighters seem unlikely due their incredible costs, training requirement, maintenance requirements, and the ability for Russian air defenses to shoot them down.
    5
  19. Different objectives. The Allies wanted to capture Germany, while Ukraine just wants Russia to leave their country.
    5
  20. Putin's objectives when he started: -Annex the entire Ukrainian coast and the entire Donbas -Dismantle the Ukrainian military -Remove the democraticly elected president to replace with a puppet autocrat -Prevent the expansion of NATO Russia only partly achieved the imperial objective to claim territory and they had to sacrifice Russian territory to do so.

  21. Didn't Putin say he wasn't going to invade Ukraine....and then he invaded Ukraine?
    4
  22. As time goes on, this may be Russia's advantage as Russia focuses on the East and South where there are less logical issues. The Russian sieges and the distance from the Poland border may give Ukraine logical issues as they use use up their arms. I hope Ukraine has a good plan, because I doubt Putin will sue for peace.

  25. A Russian jet would probably crash into it.

  26. Many of the Western Ukraine war commentators tend to be Ukrainian cheerleader more than analyst. I believe people just find Clarke's ability to comment on Ukrainian headwinds along with triumphs as a refreshing source of credibility. Russian trolls just don't like him debunking their nonsensical lies.

  27. The court and legislators are separate organizations

  28.  @milana-mrga  Probably not enough, but it wouldn't be insignificant alongside other armored support.

  31. There aren't enough Gripens to be worth talking about. *Sweden still needs them as they have yet to join the NATO umbrella. *Hungary is a big supporter of Vladimir Putin and his fascist ideology, so they aren't going to send their stockpile. *Brazil's new president seems to be more aligned with the authoritarian socialism of Venezuela and Cuba, then with democratic Ukraine. *South Africa has aligned itself with the Russian war effort *Czech Republic doesn't have enough jets to spare

  38. Russia need to protect their asset.

  39. The area of breakthrough is going to be small and concentrated. Quality will be important.

  40. To be fair, Israeli leadership keeps saying protecting civilians isn't a priority. They also seem to make little distinction between Palestinians and Hamas.
    2
  41. After retreating from Keiv, Kherson, and Kharkiv, the Russians are due for a win -- even if it is just a small town of rubble.
    2
  42. Thanks to the propaganda, the Russians still see themselves as liberators.
    2
  43. The Russian asset should be in jail for exposing Afghan informants on Wikileaks who were then tracked down and murdered by the Taliban. There is blood of good, brave people on his hands and he deserves to suffer for it.

  44.  @themanwiththegoldengun1998  It's on video, and Russian made dud bomblets are found all across Ukrainian cities.

  45. That is because he was only posting what the GRU (Russian military intelligence) gave him. He is Russian asset pretending to be a journalist.

  46. I thought Western Europe would have abandoned Ukraine by now. I'm glad i have been proven wrong.

  47. Your worst nightmare is drones from freedom fighters?

  48. I pretty sure if Abrams are behind the defense line, Russia's famous artillery is going to try to run as quickly as possible.

  49. Learned that mines and artillery suck.

  50.  @nekko5778  Source: The same Russian media that says Prigozhin died in a plane "accident"
    2
  51. They said 2 dead. 10 wounded.
    2
  52.  @davidmccann9811  The opposite. If the capital had fallen, the Russians would have shifted forces to other parts of Ukraine. The fighters in Mariupol know the same would happen there, so the Ukrainians are fighting hard to defend rubble to keep the Russians from moving to new fronts.
    2
  53. Meanwhile, Russia is asking for military support from Iran and North Korea. Next, Putin will beg Venezuela for financial support.

  55. Poland is being played by Putin. Stupid politicians can't see this was the end goal of Putin stopping shipments of grain through the black sea.

  58.  @AAAAAA-tj1nq  They were praising their Chinese overlords. WHO was complicit in the Chinese cover-up of covid's spread. They are still helping China cover-up it's involvement in creating this pandemic.

  59. @Sun Seeker  Sanders is a hypocritical millionaire who lives in multiple homes and only donates 1-2% of income to charity. If he believed in half of what he says, then he wouldn't be getting rich selling a $30+ book on Amazon.

  62. The irony of him making a few more million dollars selling a $30+ book on Amazon to gullible socialists.

  63. According to Russian state media, this is going exactly as Putin planned. Maybe the plan all along was to "demilitarize" the country by using the bodies of Russian soldiers to absorb all of the Ukrainian's ammunition.

  64.  @WalkOverHotCoal  The praise on Clarke is more of criticism of most other commentators for not being objective - which is a fair point to have.

  65. Dislike: Philip didn't mention what day of Russia's 10-day military operation we are on.

  66.  @randomdude2832  There is tons of open sources and independent journalists that show destroyed tank after destroyed tanks. Can really be so naive to think the Ukrainians put burnt out tanks along the Russia lines just to make fake propaganda?
    1
  67. The Germans want Ukraine to quickly fail, so the decision to deliver tanks will be moot, and then they can go back to their cozy relationship with Putin.

  68. Sanders has achieved nothing. Being an uncompromising ideological grump achieves nothing in a democracy.
    1
  69.  @suzyrottencrotch5132  Trump is the opposite of Sanders in the fact the former president doesn't have an ideology, and he cares about nothing. His four years in office were rubber stampping the agendas of McConnell and Navarro as the only policies Trump cared about were ones that fed his ego.
    1
  70. Sanders only sells pipe dreams. His spending increases outmatch his tax increase suggestions by leaps and bounds, and he stupidly believes that massive tax hikes wouldn't cause economic issues. The man watched his idolized Soviet Union collapse and learned nothing.

  71.  @SrdjanBasaric-w2s  Oil from Rojava is predominantly sold to the illegitimate Assad government and their Irani and Wagner puppet masters.

  72. The Russians are the ones are the ones with opportunities and advantages, but they rarely seize it due to incompetence and low moral.

  73.  @IxGxNxI  What is another dumb idea implemented by Putin?

  74. Does he? He is selling a $30+ book on Amazon.

  75. So, the extrajudicial murder of Indian and Canadian citizens based on different political views is okay?
    1
  76. Putin has three bad options. 1) Do nothing and risk Ukrainians flanking south 2) Send in conscripts who will be decimated by better trained, better equipped, and more experienced Ukrainian soldiers 3) Redeploy forces from their Donbas offensives which would likely doom the Russian summer offensive

  77. The Taliban appreciate him giving them a classified list of NATO allies for them to track down and murder. Nice job siding with the Taliban and GRU.

  78.  @wyunaboy  Suicide drones are losing effectiveness as both sides have found metal grates stop them from causing any serious damage.

  79. Putin could care less about what the world thinks. He is afraid that his cronies can see him get publicly challenged and then be helpless to respond. Putin has shown weakness to a bunch of hyenas.

  91. They aren't fighting the Russians. The West just wanted the Germans to have the backbone to send tanks to Ukraine without cowarding at the idea of Putin's feelings would be hurt.

  93. Russia doesn't have any escalation options left. They are already targeting civilians. They don't have the resources to go to war with NATO without being completely curbstomped. They can't use nukes without triggering sanctions from China/India, Russia's only lifeline.

  96. Apparently, Bernie is envious of your economic decline.

  97.  @cornellhoward3757  Russia is already launching missles at civilian targets and Ukraine drones are already attacking Russian bases in Russia. Putin's threats are empty.

  98.  @orlock20  The US had more mine clearly equipment, the Iraqi had less time to set up fortifications, and the US had the air support to prevent continuous artillery and helicopter attacks as they cleared the mines. Otherwise, same thing. 🙄

  102. Russia is running out of missiles. The frequency of them being fired daily to weekly is proof. They fire them as soon as the factory builds them, and then they have to be Iran and North Korea for help.

  103. Even if there isn't a guarantee that Russia won't come back, it would still be preferable for Ukraine to have Russia leave voluntarily than to try to push them out with military forces. Think about it. What is a better strategic position: Ukraine capturing Crimea or Ukraine fortifying Crimea

  104. He seems better off than the Afghan informants he outed on Wikileaks who were then tracked down and murdered by the Taliban. The rapist should be in jail with other Russian spies.

  107. Russia is firing unguided missles into cities. Why are Russians surprised they are striking civilians?
    1
  108. That is because Ukrainians are white and non Muslim. It is amazing how few in the West will acknowledge this subtle racism .

  109. NATO production of artillery shells will surpass Russia by 2025. Meanwhile, Ukraine drones are picking up the slack.

  110. North Korea doesn't even have enough gas for their army to run more than a few days. I doubt their weapon stockpiles are even safe to use.

  120.  İbrahim Moncada  The Russians did flee from a smaller, less well-armed force in Kyiv. Seems like the Russians are scared to fight directly with the Ukrainian military, so that is why the preferred strategy of Russia is to bomb defenseless civilians instead.
