How? The threat of nuclear war is how. If not for that . . . well put it this way: in a conventional war the state of California alone would take Russia behind the wood shed and whip its butt until it cried for its mama.

If the west stops buying Chinese, China is finished.

Moscow was settled by Swedes, perhaps Sweden should take over Russia?

Such a foolish thing to write.

Seven guns. Wow . . . are you sure you can spare them? Who needs guns when you can have an official EU membership card? Turn the nuclear generating plants back on, get rid of ICE vehicles and transition to green, do what ever you can, but stop financing the Russian military with oil payments. Every member of NATO should help Germany and other countries dependent on Russian gas and oil to transition to energy independence, and eventually an entirely green renewable power system.

Blinding flash of the obvious: the pipelines from Russia to Europe run through Ukraine, yet no sabotage? . . .

Much of the engineering that has gone into Teslas is also of German origin.

@bandit6762 Maybe but the coal pollution Germany replaced it with actually kills hundreds of thousands of people NOW, every year, and the ash is toxic too. People just don't know that they are dying from coal pollution in the air they breath because they can be far away from any coal burning plant and still die from it.

Don't worry it's only a routine exercise, inside its own borders.

And Germany continues to finance the war by buying Russian gas and oil, while decommissioned nuclear plants sit idle. These pipelines must be destroyed, all of them, then Russia will collapse like the rotten house of cards it is. And Europe will adapt, and get it's nuclear capacity back on line and transition to EVs even faster than it is, make the electrical grid truly European, and have a brighter future despite some mid term hardships. But most importantly they will no longer be under the thumb of an obviously insane regime, and an imperialistic, alcoholic, reptilian brained population that hold dreams of a past that never existed.

Don't tell me the Russians are flying those old foxbats, like in your video, lol. That would be hard to believe.

VW loves the CCP. Birds of a feather cheat together. Especially when they are outperformed in every metric by a company with a real desire to benefit humanity as a whole.

The most significant weapons in the war: On the Russian side the Krasnopol and Krasnopol M guided artillery shells with a max range of about 12 miles and a hit rate on specific targets of about 80%. The Russian also have a rocket propelled guided artillery round thought to be the equal or better in range of the American rocket propelled guided Excalibur shell. The Americdan Excalibur is devastatingly accurate and can be used by existing M109A7 Paladin self-propelled howitzers which can send Excalibur rounds to 39.3 kilometers (24.4 miles), which ERCA an extended barrel length howitzer can now lob to 43 miles. Their is a German/South African gun that reportedly can do a little better. The Canadians recently supplied Ukraine with both the Excalibur rounds and the Dutch gave a small number of self-propelled howitzers that can use it. It can also be used by the towed guns recently supplied by the USA and Canada. The use and efficiency of these shells in an anti-artillery role by the competing Russian and recently supplied American radar controlled systems that can target and fire on artillery units within seconds of their use may be the knife edge upon which the entire war is determined, baring the deployment of western air power, in Ukraine. To me the most exciting development in this field is that Norway's Nammo has unveiled a potentially revolutionary concept for an air-breathing, ramjet-powered, pseudo-missile that any standard 155mm howitzer can fire at targets more than 60 miles away. A truly great time for Norway, and Nammo to supply the 155s with a shell that can reach out and touch Russian artillery with little or no exposure other than to air to ground or guide missile fire. To have Russia exchange expensive guided missiles for common artillery with uncommon munitions, is not such a bad exchange in a scenario in which missile production is dependent upon western tech they no longer have access to..

@alfredgoham2787 It went a hundred times better than Ukraine is going for Russia.

Russia is an old Swedish territory, so I guess it should be returned to Sweden.

@koshobai Bet you can't game worth a S with it. Unless you can jack it into an Nvidia video card setup.

Well it makes more sense than protesting Tesla which has done more to mitigate climate change than any other organization with the possible exception of China. Maybe they will start to burn planes instead of burning the most efficient EVs on the planet.

@lukehallatt394 More like 40k a day. That rate is wearing out barrels faster than they can be replaced. Western weapons have more range than Russian and are much more accurate. One rocket propelled excalibur shell can do what twenty dumb outdated Russian shells often cannot. Russia is unable to replace its high tech missiles. But the main thing is that Russia is at the edge of a cliff of demographic collapse. Everyone with any potential who was able to, has fled Russia, It is not able to produce enough people to continue on the level it has been, It has massive drug addiction, way higher than the west or the USA and alcohol problems, rampant AIDs and one out of every four Russians has a antibiotic resitant form of TB. Russia has basically no future, that's why it is making it's move now, before it just collapses. And at the same time, Putin is the world richest man. He holds his wealth via third party insiders who he holds the power of life and death over. This wealth is hidden in dummy corporations set up by German lawyers in Panama, and most of it is invested in American corporations, many of them in the defense industry. So when Putin attacks a country that responds with American weapons, it is a very good financial move for him personally. And the cancellations of Russian built armaments just keep slipping in. Basically if you see Russia accusing another country of some inhumane or bellicose act it is a sure sign that they do it themselves and the accused does not. They have been playing the same tune since the revolution, and anyone with any sense and potential should get out if they can.

Most of you are arguing over a word "counteroffensive". This is meaningless.

Blinding flash of the obvious: The pipelines to Europe run through Ukraine -- yet not sabotage? . . .

Far more climate friendly than any gas or diesel cars elroy. If you think that people are going to exclusively use mass transit you are delusional.

Maybe you should recommission your nuclear power-plants until you achieve green energy independence, and let Tesla build some energy efficient Electronic Vehicles in the most advanced manufacturing facility on the planet. Since they did build it with the intention of decoupling much energy usage from the very people that have Germany under its thumb. Duhhh.

Your wishes are worth more to you (as delusions) than to anyone else as the nothing they are. Oh -- would you mind helping me move in August? I have a house full of heavy furniture that needs moving. That would be real, your wishes are nothing.

Russia will never be able to pay the bill it is running up. The world will have to foreclose, and auction off the assets.

Yes, and the science says that EVs are far less harmful over their life of use than an ICE car. It has been proven time and time again. You need to get you head out of computer games and look it up big boss.

@beniaminmarin1596 Thievery! They should be paying the public for subjecting them to such an insane display of thread bare entertainment and unrepentant delusion.

@eget4144 The USA is far older than the PRC einstein.

@rodmarker2071 You need to get up to speed on your "facts". Those fields of cars are off lease hybrids and ICE that have been discontinued. Batteries do not explode, gas tanks explode, when the fumes ignite. Some batteries do catch fire, but far far fewer than gas fires in ICE. We have the statistic on this and evidently all you have is media lies.
