  1. I'm going to say it: Those Malians are as much a danger to themselves as others.

  2. Ah, yes. Combat engineers. For when you absolutely must renovate your neighbors house.

  3. Missing is not an option.

  4.  @benten9320  which in Africa is code for replacing one brutal dictator with another.
    47
  5. Sing it with me: HAPPINESS IS A WARM GUN!
    39
  6. "B7, miss." "SHUT UP, CARL!"
    36
  7. We don't allow civvies to buy full auto guns. These will probably sit in a wearhouse for a few years until some bureaucrat finds some turdworld ally to give them to.
    30
  8. Same story all around. Can't get the diesel to the vehicles deep inside the warzone. The tyranny of distance, as the Aussies will say.
    27
  9. 0:14 What are you talking about? Of course the tank thought he was hitting an enemy. If he didn't, he wouldn't have fired, simple as that. Maybe he thought camera guy was a scout, maybe he was right.
    23
  10.  @Nodnarbero  those who don't know a thing about Africa should not spread racist libel.
    22
  11. The Rebels seriously named themselves BIFF?
    20
  12. The UN condemns everything except bad faith negotiations.
    18
  13. The Azeris wildly exaggerated the effects of their drones even before fighting began just as they wildly exaggerated their progress, claiming that any town where fighting was reported as being already in their hands.
    16
  14. They're all carrying a mismatch of equipment that reflects all of Ukraine's affiliations over the last 40 years. Also, they carry A LOT of shoulder fired rockets, which is a clear sign of a preferrence. Makes sense, destroying enemy vehicles will cripple his ability to move forward or escape, and rockets are much cheaper and easier to move and hide than full sized artillery.
    7
  15.  @pog428  he means the Chinese Communist Party.
    6
  16. If they were planning on executing those guys they would have done so already

  17. Turkish support is irrelevant at best.
    5
  18. You can't lose when there's no real fight.
    5
  19. Dude, they had nothing to do with each other. Not even a tactical nuke could have caused a building collapse at that distance.

  20.  @Nodnarbero  we call it you have no idea what you're talking about and are just regurgitating buzzwords.

  21.  Qᴜɪᴄᴋ Sᴀɴᴅ  that joke wasn't funny in 1991.
    3
  22.  @reneroux2391  not sure what you mean. And eastern europe isn't even half this ridiculous (except when alcohol/drugs are involved).
    3
  23. Nukes aren't easy to set off.
    3
  24. Lose the trash talk. Everyone fighting is loyal to their countries.
    3
  25. Especially when it's the middle east.
    2
  26. Sign you have no idea what you're talking about. So I say we draft your deadbeat butt.
    2
  27. The destination, silly.
    2
  28. Guniea was never a democracy
    2
  29.  @richyket  you mean to imply Africans aren't worth the billions we send in charity?
    2
  30.  Qᴜɪᴄᴋ Sᴀɴᴅ  shut up and get drafted, kid.
    2
  31. Dude, these aren't going onto a civilian market. Even if anyone allowed them the Feds would rather give them as a present to a turdworld ally.
    2
  32. Driver opened the door to jump out, though.
    2
  33. It's the middle east. If they're not fighting over one thing, they'll just fight over another.
    2
  34. C-Ram is a whole family of weapons and there's lots of them. Most use bullets.
    2
  35. Comparing anything in Ukraine to Syria is silly. In Syria, neither side had any idea what they were doing and a lot of soldiers would fraudulently call their losses civilian casualties.
    2
  36. Why would we want to?
    2
  37. I don't think those guys wear many helmet cams.
    2
  38. no one is blowing up a 13 billion dollar ship just to see what part needs reinforced.
    2
  39. Lost? We left. There's no one to lose against.
    2
  40.  @trojanhorse1994  since you don't know basic facts about the conflict why you so intent on convincing everyone it was a disaster?
    2
  41. And yet Baghdad still pretends they're in charge of this area.

  42. Take your medicine, Jeremy.

  48. Keep dreaming
    1
  49.  @MaxedOut77  schizophrenicly inaccurate. You can assert that in your opinion no gun SHOULD be illegal, but lying and saying they are all legal is a sign you're not fit to breed.
    1
  50. It's literally spring. And why so needlessly paranoid? It's just an average gunfight.
    1
  51.  @steriskyline4470  irrelevant. Same question
    1
  52.  @steriskyline4470  the problem with that is you have no idea what you're talking about, hypocrite.
    1
  53. Shut up

  54. Given the kits I've been seeing, Kiev is using all the rockets they can get.

  55. Lose the trash talk

  56.  @rozenzoon  shut up, you don't know a thing about war

  61.  @nutsandbolts7407  shut up. You don't know what you're talking about.

  62.  @badassmother1426  comparing Washington politics to that turdhole is like comparing high school drama to prison rape.

  65. This has no effect on the ocean whatsoever.
    1
  66. It's Syria

  67. This is the middle of the ocean, and this was a major structural stress test, and fish are as expendable as can be.

    1
  69.  @abelq8008  it's just a brutal fact of the terrain
    1
  70.  @hulaguhanozturk430  the alleged defeat was fraudulent. The area claimed to be taken was no man's land before the war and since the frontier is thinly defended before the war, the only way to judge if the border moved is by looking at where the military positions moved. No direct evidence of this exists. Truth of the matter is only part of the Azeris actually fought. Plenty of Army officers could be seen on camera doing PR stuff in Baku when they should have been fighting. And there was a flood of activism online from what looked like every English speaking Azeri alive. This was also the cause of prior failures.

  71.  @tomshanakian909  wut?

  72.  @hulaguhanozturk430  you don't the first thing about those mountains, do you?

  76.  @williamdavis9562  again? You ain't on this thread before right now. Mix me up with someone else or forgot you were on an alt account?
    1
  77.  @williamdavis9562  nevermind, I see your other remarks to me
    1
  78. You're just proving that most of the people arguing said topic have no idea what they're talking about. Do you have any idea how insignificant this major test is compared to the ocean?
    1
  79. What is certain is there's no actual frontline of the war.
    1
  80. "Shepard" being a stand in for the campaign's script writer trying to create a spectacle...
    1
  81. The norm in that part of the world is MUCH worse.
    1
  82. Not for the foreseeable future
    1
  83. You think a politician personally ordered a random tank to shoot a random building? Bug off.
    1
  84.  @peppapig3963  are you telling me to go home because that makes no sense. Also, Putin isn't Russia.
    1
  85. Don't you have a synagogue to vandalize, freak show?
    1
  86. Says who? Russian and Ukrainian are related languages like English and French so I think you might simply have trouble distinguishing between them.
    1
  87. Read subtitles.
    1
  88.  @Nodnarbero  I'd hate to dick measure but I really am a military historian specializing in terrorism. The only feelings I have is how much your arrogance and bias warrants getting drafted into the marines.
    1
  89.  @robashton8606   I'm literally the expert. Whole lot of Dunning-Kruger Effect when it comes to Africa from people making broad historic assessments about Africa when they will admit to not knowing many basic facts.
    1
  90. 0:10 Does that guy have an integrally suppressed weapon?
    1
  91.  @Sokrates66  I wouldn't be sure. Just keep in mind real world booms aren't as epic as the ones in pop culture.
    1
  92.  @Sokrates66  didn't look like that happened.
    1
  93. That talking in the end. There was a mix of a slavic and a western European language spoken. I assume that's the Spanish journalist?
    1
  94.  @j.franklin21  dude, he was joking
    1
  95. Just go there and fart....
    1
  96. And more than likely destined for a tribal militia who doesn't even know which end of the gun means business.
    1
  97. Or you to this channel. Shut up.
    1
  98. Read the subtitles.
    1
  99. Anyone know why the Russians are still using the highways?
    1
  100. Lose the trash talk
    1
  101. Who cares? Fish lay hundreds of eggs at a time, this was in the middle of the ocean with low fish density, and the ocean is so big that this is like less than a drop by comparison
    1
  102. No... There's been no nuclear test in the US since the Cold War when US and Russia agreed to stop
    1
  103. Philippines has enough troubles of its own
    1
  104. Are you advocating terrorism?
    1
  105. They aren't. End of story.
    1
  106. The Poles are concerned with EU borders, the Ukrainian's are concerned with the Ukraine.
    1
  107. Or an LMG.
    1
  108. Three words: No one cares.
    1
  109. Like you could do better.
    1
  110. Don't be silly. It's war
    1
  111.  @saatana3378  I mean this literally. No one shells a building for laughs and giggles. The tank driver thought there were enemies inside, so he tried to kill them. It's as simple as that.
    1
  112. Read subtitles. The first video is current, the rest are silly comparisons to unrelated wars.
    1
  113. There was a time when this was a thing in the US. Due to accidents the machine gun is now rigged that it is physically impossible to hit the recruits.
    1
  114.  @ThangTran-bj4we  this is many things, but not guerrilla and not remotely similar to Vietnam
    1
  115. Tell the camera man to stop filming and grab a gun.
    1
  116. Please leave gunfights to those of us that watched the video.
    1
  117. You don't know the meaning of the word.
    1
  118. That's a total guess.
    1
  119. Science is never nonsence.
    1
  120.  @Rickey85  and there are no moral implications to wiping out a school of fish. We do it all the time for meat.
    1
  121.  @Rickey85  that's all that fair. Fishies lay hundreds or thousands of eggs at a time and can replenish populations in a season or two as falling populations wipe out predators. And again, the ocean is huge, and Naval activity is nothing compared to it. That doesn't apply to whales, however.
    1
  122. @Rolling Stone that's not funny
    1
  123. @Rolling Stone that's exactly why you should shut up. Permanently.
    1
  124. Both sides are largely using old Soviet equipment with modern body armor and aircraft when they can get them.
    1
  125.  @WarLeaker  undercover Iranian soldiers videotaped themselves and shared it... That should tell you all you need to know about the average level of competency in Iran.
    1
  126. No. This was in the North Arabian Sea.
    1
  127.  @iamlegend6676  Measured AT THE USS FORD LESS THAN A MILE AWAY. 100 miles away, the blast would be impossible to feel, and the blast and collapse took place at very different times.
    1
  128. Usually the Feds just gives this stuff as a present to some ally or another Federal department.
    1
  129.  @dutchschultz3076  dude, you ain't buying a full auto gun EVER.
    1
  130.  @trojanhorse1994  there are three major factions calling themselves the Taliban plus DAESH and hundreds of tribal affiliated militias. We're talking many small wars. And you're actively lying when you say we gave those weapons aways as you would have had to read the truth in order to distort it in that manner. So shut up and get drafted, you arrogant fool.
    1
  131. Lose the political BS
    1
  132. Read subtitles. Film maker knows that.
    1
  133. National affiliation. Ukraine flag is yellow and blue.
    1
  134.  @FloodExterminator  maybe they killed a man nearby who was wielding a rocket. But in any case, they didn't waste ammo for laughs, the tankers definitely thought there were enemies inside. It's as simple as that.
    1
  135.  @mastermati773  lose the rhetoric. If you're Ukrainian, you're more likely than not fair game. This isn't like Syria where armed idiots and auxiliaries cried fowl whenever they were losing.
    1
  136. @ToastyMayo when I see one I'll let you know.
    1
  137.  @jackhawthorn4799  wut?
    1
  138. Not guaranteed, simply likely.
    1
  139. It looks like it broke the front axel by hitting near a tire.

  140.  @ishootfaces722  you saying videogames ignore realism to make cooler booms? SCANDALOUS!
    1
  141. Dude, the Malians are home. This is how they treat each other.
    1
  142. I'm trying to learn both languages and I still can't tell them apart. They're closely related to each other, like old english and modern english.
    1
  143.  @Keyboard-wizard  liars burn in hell. Now don't you have a graveyard to vandalize?
    1
  144. Shut up
    1
  145.  @lameiraangelo  shut up
    1
  146. Not instantly. The Feds are notoriously sluggish about these things. But the guns could end up anywhere we have allies, especially given they're untraceable. Maybe they'll be a present from the White House to Ukraine, maybe the CIA will smuggle them to Guaido Loyalists, maybe we'll sell them to Somalia for cheap.
    1
  147. Not if you know what you're talking about
    1
  148. Violence isn't banned, but simply demonitized and age restricted. However, most of those measures are done by a computer program that's only accurate two out of three times. Less if you include all the times people abuse report buttons.
    1
  149. Can we have a military video without the TDS to politics?
    1
  150. 2:40 That guy's feet are going to hurt for days because wet socks.
    1
  151. You apparently don't know the first thing about the ATF. And given the location, it's not at all surprising we captured an enemy arms smuggler. What the video doesn't show is the ship's captain having a long chat with Naval Intelligence.
    1
  152.  @WingZeroGWO  You.
    1
  153.  @WingZeroGWO  everywhere
    1
  154. Read the subtitles.
    1
  155. Ukrainian and Russian are more closely related to each other than English and French. People who don't speak the language often can't distinguish between them.
    1
  156. You know they're broken into local militias that hate each other, right?
    1
  157. @Sioux White Eagle it's the middle east. It's always been like that, even when nominally one fool is in charge.
    1
  158. @Sioux White Eagle The Armenians have nothing in common with any other culture.
    1
  159. @Sioux White Eagle You don't know jack about the Caucacus, do you?
    1
  160. @Sioux White Eagle Hardly relevant, since Turkey's participation in that war was just a fraudulent as the Azeri's claim to victory. Again, don't make broad damnations about peoples you're not familiar with
    1
  161. Same as everyone else in the US
    1
  162. They're not legal here.
    1
  163.  @suluayran121  even if that were true, a handful of drones doesn't make Ankara master of the region. But it isn't, as claims that Turkey designed said drone are fraudulent. It was an effort to circumvent US import bans by buying existing drone components for factories in Austria, Britain, Canada and a few other places. Even the bomb rack is imported. Even the engineers running the factory are imported as they're all westerner educated Turkish engineers and western expat engineers. Repeated boycotts of this company cause them to announce new "domestic" components. But in practice they just jerry rig different imported components on. Still a passible drone considering what little they had to work with, though.
    1
  164.  @ceoofgreenheartinvestmentf173  you gloat but you're oblivious to how all those praises those drones got were just PR junk. They did nothing of consequence.
    1
  165.  @rifenossimple4344  and yet, they're not important
    1
  166.  @yohanauvray543  not relevant here
    1
  167.  @exepremium8201  like you'd know
    1
  168.  @mehmetali37  don't you have a prostitute to visit or something? Bug off
    1
  169.  @williamdavis9562  that assessment of the damage is wildly optimistic at best. It isn't physically possible for a couple dozen drones to do damage with that many zeros. And you're clearly buying into the sensationized nonsense and chearing on a team. From what I can tell logistics seem to be the deciding factor. Only part of the Russian forces appears to be in Ukraine and a lot of them have run out of diesel. Not surprising in the wide expanses of Eastern Europe.
    1
  170. Uh... Yes to that, but they didn't do anything dumb, as the shot came from through the doorway, which is why they retreated to the other side of the building.
    1
  171. Is he looking for a radio or a shooting position?
    1
  172. Then what are you doing here?
    1
  173. Don't incite violence in a public place. Especially one where report buttons are easy to misuse. And it's kinda funny you seem to think you can bark orders at people. Especially suicidal ones involving nukes.
    1
  174. These guys in jail are mostly the product of witch hunts and purges. Sure, a lot of them were captured on the battlefield and there really was no use denying anything, but the other part were imprisoned with no more evidence than an anonymous accuser and a 30 minute trial and no lawyers.
    1
  175. From what I gather there isn't really a frontline.
    1
  176. Maybe, something's on fire over there. But in any case it's silly to play infowars in a warzone, implying this was a crime done for laughs and giggles.
    1
  177. This is just a test firing. Some idiot Arab did exactly that once, though.
    1
  178.  @tomk2010  You mean Syria. That happened in Syria.
    1
  179.  @tomk2010  No, I mean US soldiers have never done that, but some of our Arab allies have. Also as the other guy pointed out these Coyote rockets aren't cruise missiles, they're about the same price as a big consumer drone.
