  1. Belgorod is in the newest Ukrainian Oblast. They held a referendum a couple of hours ago and 99.9% of them voted to join Ukraine.
    249
  2. Those poor, pathetic Russians can dish it out but they can't take it. No wonder, they call themselves "victims" all the time. Not so big, bold and brave now.
    245
  3. Life is cheap in Russia. Nobody seems to care.
    171
  4. Serving as Russian pilots in Syria, killing helpless unarmed civilians for a couple of years did not prepare them for an adversary that can shoot back. No doubt, they felt mighty, though.
    130
  5. No evacuation? The roads from Belgorod are clogged and convoys of buses are evacuating civilians. Prigozhin has likely never told the truth to anyone in his entire life. That's why he was in prison, I guess.
    125
  6. I guess that Allah wasn't so keen on him, after all.
    119
  7. Poland: Dmitry Medvedev will disappear
    103
  8. Looks like another grim, grey Soviet era box. .... beautifies Moscow ...
    84
  9. I guess that the bi-lingual Ukranians can move pretty freely in Russia.
    83
  10.  @Т1000-с5ж  Nobody else agrees with you .... oh wait! North Korea does.
    80
  11. Marching on Moscow is how you change governments in Russia's great "civilization".
    76
  12. A new ride at Disney World? ... the "Lollipop Pop-up Jack-in the Box Tank"?
    75
  13. Thank you Vladimir Vladimirovich for making NATO more powerful and far reaching than any of us could have imagined.
    75
  14. ... so they ran straight to their vehicle pointing out it's location to the Ukrainian gunners. The Russian Mobilized is an awesome force.
    69
  15. It tells me that the average Russian doesn't have a clue about what is actually going on. They have been insulated from how deadly this conflict is. It's a "Special Military Operation" going on over there, somewhere.
    68
  16. The Ukrainians so innovative. If you don't have an air force to attack from the skies, invent another type. If you don't have a navy to fight back at sea, invent another type. It's becoming crystal clear that the brains of the Soviet Union sure weren't in Russia. They were in places like Ukraine and the Baltics. We need inventive people like this in NATO. Thanks for the tip, Russia.
    68
  17. The bigger the hat, the harder they fall.
    65
  18. Russia is a flammable place.
    63
  19. A Patriot Battery consists of twelve vehicles spread out over a wide area. Russians didn't take out a Patriot battery. Maybe a launcher or a single component.
    63
  20. Who did they steal the motorcycles from?
    60
  21. Time to take your land back, Japan.
    59
  22. Send that Russian pirate ship to the bottom.
    57
  23. The best preparation might be to have a couple of carrier groups circling around in the Baltic "reminding" Russia of consequences.
    53
  24. "Presidential Guards" Are they the ones that dress up like toy soldiers and goostep around? "Elite Nutcrackers"
    52
  25. Glad to have Poland on our side, now.
    45
  26. Putin is fixated on Bakhmut like Sauron's eye while Ukraine prepares a surprise for him elsewhere. That may be the most important reason for this desperate defence.
    43
  27. They were probably trying to escape from the Russian army.
    41
  28. The Russian navy always sails with a tug boat.
    41
  29. Those are the smart ones. The Russian army can't afford to lose many smart ones.
    39
  30. "US military may get pulled into direct conflict with Russia" If that happens, the Russian military is toast in very short order.
    39
  31. "They were living in garbage dump” .... a little bit of home for the homesick Russian soldiers ...
    38
  32. Well, the training is realistic, isn't it?
    35
  33. Since that Quad is not painted green or camouflage, it's a fair guess that is was looted from civilians.
    33
  34. Technical Failure: "It crashed".
    33
  35. They're all drunk.
    31
  36. All the ATACMS were shot down by the aerodrome.
    31
  37. The "Z" is the new swastika.
    30
  38. Russia's friend India also lost land to China's cartographers. The new, improved BRICS is off to a shaky start. There are too many wolverines cooped up together in that sack.
    30
  39.  @valturesnake5303  ... and now Belgorod is in Ukraine.
    30
  40. The Russians scrambled their Tupolev Bears and they ought to get there by tomorrow.
    29
  41. Russian media headline: "Ukrainian a drone attack intercepted by Kinzhal missiles."
    29
  42. Another stray cigarette?
    29
  43. ... stray cigarette ... keep moving ... keep moving ...
    28
  44. That ought to draw Russian troops away from the real war.
    28
  45. ... right from the very beginning. "It's so unfair! We were supposed to win!" cries Putin
    28
  46. That's not money. They're only Rubles.
    26
  47. No, Medvedev. If the entire NATO system were openly fighting against Russia, targets within Russia would be hit hourly.
    26
  48. What happened to the other six dwarfs?
    26
  49. Disguise it as a high end washing machine and they'll drag it into their trench themselves.
    26
  50. It's kind of quaint and naive the idea that appealing to Glorious Leader is going to help them.
    25
  51. We're sure going to miss him. He's one of those great statesmen that will be remembered for centuries. You know, like Joseph Goebbels.
    25
  52. I'm surprised that the Russians aren't stripping the corpses so that they have uniforms to issue to their hundreds of thousands of fresh conscripts. "Ignore those holes, Yuri! They were caused by stray cigarettes!"
    24
  53. The big shame is that this isn't Moscow.
    24
  54. Tough times. I hope those soldiers found a little comfort for bit.
    23
  55. I guess that it's hard to be tossed out of the twelfth story window in a submarine.
    23
  56. They think that they're shooting down all the F-16s over and over again.
    22
  57. Thugocracies won't get along forever.
    22
  58. Sunken Russian ship returns unscathed to Sevastopol two months ago before the Russians moved the fleet out of there to safety. The Russian command of time travel is totally awesome!
    22
  59. So, all those Russian Airborne are now Russian Soil Borne.
    22
  60.  @187Rajah  This facility is in Ukraine, not Russia. The invading Russians are certainly not "defending".
    21
  61. Kadyrov's, harem? All boys, right?
    21
  62. Well, there goes a warehouse full of Alibaba bought paint ball body armor destined for the Special Military Operation.
    21
  63. Maybe, Russia's luck will improve if they move their ships back into Russia out of occupied Ukraine.
    20
  64. Canada just pledged 10,000 more rounds of 105mm shells on June 15th.
    20
  65. The balloons have big hearts on them and "Happy Valentine's Day - love, Vlad" written in them.
    19
  66. Russia's hobo army ...
    19
  67. You've left out a zero at the end of that number.
    19
  68. "These weapons will cause a global catastrophe" Man, the Russians sure have a super inflated notion of their position in the world. Remindes me of Trump ... "Biglier than big".
    19
  69. Whoopski! Another stray cigarette!
    19
  70. 3,000 reservists in the United States is a really small summer training deployment. The US Army has 190,000 reservists. 3,000 is "summer camp". Try to get hold of your emotions over on your channel and stop panicking so easily.
    19
  71. That will end the Ukranian war a whole lot faster. Suddenly, Russia no longer has control of the airspace over Moscow.
    19
  72. Invader better hope that is no dead invader rotting away at the bottom of the pond.
    19
  73. Russia warns NATO about something every day. "BARK! BARK! BARK!c says the toothless dog.
    18
  74. Life is cheap in the Russian Armed Forces. What does Comrade General care?
    18
  75. Russia faces difficulties in every direction they look. This war is a colossal , historic error.
    18
  76. The Germans, of course have a huge history of participating in tank battles in Ukraine ... some of the largest in history.
    18
  77. Russia's Lavrov should be greeted with Middle Finger dance at BRICS Summit in South Africa.
    18
  78. Well, that's something new. Usually, Russian army coffins look like scorched tank bodies with a blown out turrent five meters away. I suppose that these are more compact and can be stuffed into rail cars and left on sidings to rot for a few months.
    17
  79. Oh, good! They can be part of the encirclement kettle being built around Bakhmut! What happens when the only ration packs available for the 50,000 Russians encircled there is canned bacon?
    17
  80.  @dudkadudkovich2634  That's the whole Ukrainian army. I guess that the Russians can now freely drive from one side of Ukraine to the other. Can't wait to see THAT video!
    17
  81. Russian morale won't create much depth to their defences.
    17
  82. When the extremely unpopular Lukashenko regime is overthrown, Belarus can aim those nukes at Moscow instead of NATO ... assuming that Russians will give them control of the nukes ... which they won`t for the afore stated reason.
    17
  83. United Nations emergency flights are sending plane loads of ashtrays to Russia right now.
    17
  84. "They burned all the vodka."
    16
  85. "The State order was too large and exceeded the plant's capacity to acquire more looted Ukrainian microwave oven chips to build guidance systems."
    16
  86. "F-16 fighter jets should be given to Ukraine for the nuclear security of the European continent" I'm having real difficulty grasping the logic of that statement. Maybe F-16s should be given to Ukraine for a variety of other reasons but this one os a real stretch.
    16
  87. Better book your vacation in Sochi this year, Nikita.
    16
  88. "AMERIKANSKI! AMERIKANSKI!" "First they make fog from space and now the make ICE!"
    16
  89. Join the club, España! The sooner the better ...
    16
  90. Eventually, they'll run out of the capacity to feed, equip, arm, pay and train all their new draftees. Oh .... wait ....
    15
  91. "... caused by a technical failure..." i.e. It crashed. That's a major technical failure.
    15
  92. Get ready for a long siege, not a frontal attack. Fresh water could become a major concern in short order.
    15
  93. You'll be able to spot those guys by their lack of modern uniforms and their rusty, 1950s burp guns.
    15
  94. Better pull your air force back like you pulled your navy back, Ivan.
    14
  95.  @426baron  "Don't worry. Be happy. Have a drink."
    14
  96. Must be led by one of those famous Siberian Scouts who are so good at following tracks in the snow.
    14
  97. Nice of them to point the way.
    14
  98. What interest could China have in a fair settlement for Ukraine? Boycott away and stop wasting everrybody's time.
    14
  99. Russia's 'Ghost' Battalion Commander is now an actual ghost.
    14
  100. "Russian armed forces to get more fifth-generation fighter jets and tanks" Who's going to sell the Russians those?
    13
  101. For anyone who still believes that Prigozhin is alive ...
    13
  102. Could have been a Canadian provided Carl Gustaf too.
    13
  103. Since Africans have such an extensive record of keeping the peace [snicker} I'm sure that their advice to Ukraine is thoroughly welcome.
    13
  104. Fantastic target for that new long range cruise missile coming from France! p.s. How is Russia getting that into the Black Sea? Did they build it there or in the Caspian?
    13
  105. Vodka, eh?
    13
  106. Any Kremlin official that tries to resign will be forced to resign ... no ... wait ... Any Kremlin official that tries to resign will be forced to join the army ... errr .... Any Kremlin official that tries to resign will be given free flying lessons.
    13
  107. You can tell that they're "special forces" prisoners because they all have the same uniform and they didn't need to buy their own on-line.
    13
  108. The Russians consider themselves to be the mightiest of the mighty and it doesn't seem to occur to them that whatever they do to others can be done to them in return. They seem to be very poorly informed.
    13
  109. 4 trillion rubles is what it'll cost you to buy a new Lada next year, Ivan. Oh yes. Please list the "130 countries" :
    12
  110.  @Alienisolati0nist  Numbers don't do the trick if they can't afford boots for them.
    12
  111. The quality of tanks that a country's automotive industry produces is generally reflected by the quality of cars that same industry manufactures. The Lada is a breakthrough of build quality and high tech design. The Russians are AWESOME!
    12
  112. This battlefield is already full of Canadian made C7/C8 assault rifles contributed by the Netherlands and the Scandinavian countries. I guess that Ukraine likes them.
    12
  113. NATO completely dwarfs Russia militarily, economically and developmentally.
    12
  114. What do you think the Russians are doing to their Ukrainian captives right now?
    12
  115. Send some to sink the Black Sea Fleet in Sevastopol and knock out the Kersh Bridge every week.
    12
  116. Russian justice: "You are guilty. Period."
    12
  117. Now, that military operation is becoming really special.
    12
  118. As a matter of fact, Ukraine has clearly recognized borders and only a small handful of rogue nations don't recognize them. (p.s. China doesn't recognize Russia's borders and have clearly stated that Vladivostok is still part of China). If Ukraine is a "transfer" of some sort from the Soviet Union, so is the Russian Federation which had the exact same legal status in that union and therefore Russia's borders are not recognized, either..
    12
  119. hh, yes. Chinese made knock-off military vehicles ... The Bladry, the Carrenger, the Reopold .....
    12
  120. Go ahead, Punk. Make our day.
    12
  121. I guess that dog escaped his fate of being dinner for starving Russian troops.
    12
  122. That's the Ilyushin Meat Wagon.
    12
  123. A "Russian MP" ... Boy, I bet he has a lot of legislative clout.
    11
  124.  @Alien_isolationist  " Keep poking the bear" That's a good one. "The bear" is a motley old bruin that's lost most of it's teeth, suffers from mange and chronic alcoholism renders "the bear" as pretty useless overall.
    11
  125.  @Noname-xo1po  You missed drawing the other half of your swastika.
    11
  126. That was the most comedic threat made this month.
    11
  127. Sharks that can swim backwards?
    11
  128. "Mom, why did three thousand Russian tanks blow up?" It's because they were designed and built by drunks, darling."
    11
  129. So now, Russia will divert large numbers of troops to guard the Belgorod region as Ukraine attacks somewhere else. A similar diversion tactic we used to draw Russians down to Kherson as they prepared to invade Kharkiv ... and in the North as they later moved on Kherson. The Russians react.
    11
  130. "Putin wants the Soviet Union back”, Putin screwed up and lost his opportunity. The question now is if the Russian Federation is going to remain intact. The Soviet dream is dead and buried along with Russia's professional army.
    11
  131.  @paulroberts3639  That would constitute an attack on any NATO country if fallout contaminated their soils and it's grounds for an Article Five response. Suddenly, Russia will officially be at war with 31 technologically advanced (compared to them) enemies. The trolls think that they already are but what a surprise ....
    11
  132. I'm sure that he's used to that treatment from his own officers.
    11
  133.  @HunterShows  Hope the Germans get Kaliningrad (Konigsberg) back real soon.
    11
  134. Yup. Go around the town and kettle them.
    11
  135.  @jasapeliculas  Perhaps you should look at photos of Berlin, Hamburg, Frankfort, St. Petersburg, Tokyo at the end of 1945 and wonder if they should have bothered trying to rebuild in the face of so much destruction. What may be forgotten in a few years is a Russian Federation that existed for 35 years but no longer.
    11
  136. The Russian army seems to have experience at eating stray dogs and drinking puddle water but will they do it for another winter, cut off from logistics?
    10
  137. Russia invaded Ukraine not the other way around. That's why we talk about Russia.
    10
  138. "We are getting stronger. I saw it on TV."
    10
  139.  @13BulliTs  If they're stupid, how come your army is stopped where it was two years ago?
    10
  140. Wow. Big blast wave.
    10
  141. Offer them American Dollars instead of Roubles.
    10
  142. I wonder if any of them work.
    10
  143. Karma de bitch, Mon.
    10
  144.  @CogentReasons  If the Russians hadn't invaded, none of this would have happened. The war will end immediately when they get ga=back into their vehicles and drive back into Russia. If the Ukranians stopped fighting, they'd all end up in gulags in Siberia.
    10
  145. Russia ... Europe's next Yugoslavia.
    10
  146. They''ll be saying the same thing about you in a year of two Medvedev.
    10
  147.  @Dezkoi  They should drop packs of cigarettes and lighters. Stray smokes have destroyed major Russian naval units, airfields and ammunition dumps all over the region.
    10
  148. These people are cavemen thumping their chests.
    10
  149. The prevailing wind blows out of the West, Russia.
    10
  150. They're pushing up the sunflowers on the Pontic Steppe.
    9
  151. Iran may lose their entire navy in a couple of hours.
    9
  152. .... another sloppy Russian shipyard. The same thing happened to their mighty carrier. Don't weld when you're full of vodka.
    9
  153. Trump would have had to visit Putin and kiss his ring, or else.
    9
  154. Time to go home before your luck runs out.
    9
  155. There is an open 12th story window waiting for that loudmouth somewhere in Mother Russia.
    9
  156. ... anybody but Muscovites ...
    9
  157. Shall we count the remainder of Lukashenko's regime in days or weeks?
    9
  158. Pretty slick aerodynamics. Doubtful it's made in Russia, then.
    9
  159. They have long experience shooting down civilian airliners. Remember that Korean 747 full of people when the pilot radioed headquarters on whether or not to shoot it down? Headquarters said : "Da, Komerade"
    9
  160.  @MathyBoonen  Airfield shows lots of damage from jumping up and shooting down all the ATACMS
    9
  161. That would be an eye opener if Ukraine emerged from this war with more territory than she had before 2013.
    9
  162. Watch the Russian police knock down this funerary structure to prove that they didn't do it.
    9
  163. "... Special Transitional Operation ..."
    9
  164. At least he was good enough to get off the roadway and not block traffic.
    9
  165. "Russia captures US Bradley IFV in Ukraine and analyzes its combat capabilities" It'll be like chimpanzees trying to figure out microcircuitry..
    9
  166. The Moskva had her heavy ordinance on phallic display on her upper decks. That's pretty vulnerable.
    9
  167. Send them something that can take out the rest of the Sevastopol fleet.
    9
  168. Why do they bother registering presidential candidates at all when the outcome is already known?
    9
  169. Yeah. He's not the brighest, is he?
    9
  170. Cue: Chinese People's Liberation Army to start their liberation of Siberia ...
    9
  171. They make those threats because they are losing.
    9
  172. Dismantling Russia will move the whole World ahead.
    8
  173. Had the Russians shot down his flight into Poland, the World would be at war right now.
    8
  174. That's a second hand Lada! He's one rich Russian!
    8
  175.  @chancergordy  A decade of Lada production couldn't keep up with the demand for death reward vehicles if the war stopped today.
    8
  176. It doesn't seem to be working for them. "Dumb" unguided munitions are yielding dumb results.
    8
  177. This was widely anticipated.
    8
  178. I guess that the Russians are reduced to buying the "Long March" brand of tires off of Alibaba.
    8
  179. The Soviet Union died a death. By all means, let's restore an entity that fell apart all in its own. The sooner the better so that the Russian Federation lies in pieces.
    8
  180.  @САЛОРЕЙХКАПУТ  It seems that the "smart part" of the Soviet Union left to join the modern world and leave Russia behind.
    8
  181. There are over 3 million NATO combatants (before conscription) and you would really notice it if they were preparing for war. This little exercise is a drop in the bucket ... checking out the readiness of the first line responders. Actual preparation for war would be as immense as the mobilizations before WWI. The Russian military is puny (and poor) in comparison.
    8
  182. Humpty-Dumpty Surovikin had a great fall ....
    8
  183.  @h.a.9880  Those trenches full of Russians are in Ukraine. That tells the whole story.
    8
  184. Look at those steel coffins flying off the assembly line. Ruskie cookers ...
    8
  185. Was the cigarette regular or filter tipped?
    8
  186. They'll spend a lot more than the poor Russians can afford to.
    8
  187.  @davidjones6389  Can you image how rich those new little countries with all the oil and gas wells are going to be? The Republic of Muscovy on the other hand ....
    8
  188. Lavrov draws another RED LINE. tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock- [yawn!] tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-tick-tock-
    8
  189. Is anyone else sick to death of this guy?
    8
  190. Russia lost last year.
    8
  191. Putin pushed him out of his job.
    8
  192. If you were a Russian General, you'd be drunk too. There are no successful ones since Progozyn died in a lawn dart incident.
    8
  193.  @bobsers4018  Maybe, that 's to protect them from being shot by their own troops.
    8
  194.  @robharris8844U  Oh, yeah like that Admiral Kuznetsov that leaves a black smudge of unburned bunker oil smoke you can see for fifty miles everywhere she sails.
    8
  195. Please concentrate your forces, Russia. It saves ammunition if you're all clustered together.
    8
  196. This guy's afraid of the monsters under his bed. No wonder he isn't a factor in this war.
    7
  197. SCOO-BE-DOO-BE-DOO!
    7
  198. What? Killer apes can't swim?
    7
  199. I can understand how a video of a company of Russian soldiers bolting and running may be found offensive to some.
    7
  200. "Suck it up" say the Russian artillery commanders from a distance to their Gunners.
    7
  201.  @iambiggus  "That's because it's NATO ammunition, and thanks to the US, it's very fresh." So, what is NATO ammunition? Is NATO a guy on a street corner? is NATO a place (Oh yeah, it's a place that SURROUNDS the frightened Russians!) No, NATO is an alliance of thirty two (32) countries a lt of whom manufacture ammunition. NATO sets the spec. That's all.
    7
  202. Trump thanks his Russian ally for the fireworks at Maro Lago.
    7
  203. You have to move large bodies of troops from one sector to another. Vehicles will be in short supply and a big convoy of them will stick out in a satellite or drone image like a neon sign. That's what happened to the Russians a year ago. Old fashioned marching might still be the most efficient way for an army with stretched resources.
    7
  204.  @MrWaalkman  I'm Canadian. You all sound like Speedy Gonzales
    7
  205. Wait until it's covered in Russian military vehicles
    7
  206. "Prisoners released in exchange for joining the army created real chaos in Russia" It raised the average IQ of the Russian army, though.
    7
  207.  @RickyGorski-gn9wd  Russia lost in Afghanistan and it ended the Soviet Union. Vodka delirium tremens !?? ☺☺☺☺☺☺
    7
  208. North Korea is Russia's and China's great success story in nation building. I'm sure that they are both proud.
    7
  209. It doesn't get much higher than controlling a US President.
    7
  210. Proper maintenance is just an Ilyushin, there.

  211.  @alexanderastafyev3615  The West: The "West" is civilization of around a billion and half people that includes most of Europe, all of the Americas, Oceania and a good part of the Pacific Rim (Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, Singapore) and to sum that up into one single mind set is rather bizarre. Perhaps, you mean "westerner" in the racist sense? (Typical 'third worlder")
    7
  212. Nice target! Just like the ole road to Kviv.

  213.  @SUPERPOWERCHINA_  "Here. Try some of this nice bat soup!"
    7
  214. He's Czeching in with his allies.
    7
  215. A Cigarette did that. Russia shot down all the missiles and then some more.
    7
  216. That may be a consequence of fielding a lightly trained conscript army. Draftees who have little unit cohesion are always going to look out for #1.
    7
  217. I hope that more will follow.
    7
  218. Yes. Forgotten lessons from Soviet times. The Soviets were forced to back down and Khrushchev was humiliated. His tenure was short after that.
    7
  219.  @arielalicaway-p7s  The alcohol kills the roots, though. They are good fertilizer after evapouration.
    7
  220. I wonder if this suopposed "AWACS" saw thhe round coming that shot it down? Russia's awesome technology is proving to be substandard. India wants their money back.
    7
  221.  @JL-tm3rc  Russia has a monopoly on neither.
    7
  222. Yeah they were only Russians, after all.
    6
  223.  @БарсуковаГалина-э1п  Oh, no. That's not what a winner looks like. That's what a loser looks like.
    6
  224. Love those flying dinosaurs. I'm surprised the Tupolevs are flying given the rubber band embargo on Russia.
    6
  225. Wait 'til they've figured out that there are no Nazis, NATO, Westerners in this war.
    6
  226. They need to loot more microwave ovens for their control chips.
    6
  227.  @chrisrobert5252  They'll be sitting ducks for Leopard 1s.
    6
  228.  @TheRealBillBob  NATO is a defensive alliance of 32 nations. It is not yet engaged militarily and the alliance charter prevents it from doing so. Individual NATO members like Poland are free to do so but have not as yet. If Russia ever manages to break out, they may.
    6
  229. Alexander wants Belarus to "go away" forever, I guess.
    6
  230. One of the opening rounds of the Russian civil war.
    6
  231. Dream on, Ivan.
    6
  232. Nicely photographed fireworks display. The flag (appears to) take a licking but it keeps on flapping. Amazing that. I guess that the detonation was way in the background.
    6
  233.  @velisusi1  Several truckloads at today's exchange rate.
    6
  234. A normal life in Russia after the war will be one of poverty and want.
    6
  235. They're a bit too rough to use as bum wipes though and not everyone has a parrot cage that needs lining.
    6
  236. They will launch an even more special military operation in response. Those Russian military leaders look like a Central Casting audition for SMERSH assassins.
    6
  237. Funny. Notice how when you see drone damage in Moscow it's to a commercial building but when you see it in Ukraine, it always seems to have hit an apartment block. Russian "precision" targeting ...
    6
  238. That cold chill from Iceland ...
    6
  239. We did. We added Finland.
    6
  240. If the Russians make even a little move on Finland, the situation will change all right. That will end the Ukranian war in a month.
    6
  241. It's the world's greatest drunken hobo army.
    6
  242. "US to send VAMPIREs to Ukraine" Oh, those suck.
    6
  243. Russia does not have the mass of submarines that they had in the Soviet Krasni Flot. They will be onesies and not in anything resembling wolf packs. There is considerable antisubmarine expertise in the NATO navies and the real issue is the danger that those poor Russian slobs down in those rust bucket boats will face. Secrecy? SOSUS ended that back in the 1960s.
    6
  244. That video just save his life.
    6
  245.  @187Rajah  I've read a different version in which Russia was created by Ukrainians in olden times. Since Russia and Ukraine theoretically had equal status in the Soviet Union, the Russians should feel lucky that they were granted as much as they were. Russians occupy dozens of non-Russian peoples in Eurasia that the Russians have no legitimate claim over. That will likely be one of the outcomes of this war ... the dismantling of Russian occupations over so many non-Russians in Asia.
    6
  246. "Before this: Russia winning After this: Russia winning" Heh! Heh! ... Now, back in the real world ...
    6
  247. Shot down by a BUK?
    6
  248. Unfortunately, Canada opted for the F-35A after examining the Gripen in detail. The F-35 will be great for adding to "shock and awe" coalitions in some foreign place. but the Gripen would clearly be superior for operations in the Canadian North ... where we need to beef up our defenses for the alliance.
    6
  249.  @JethroBodineWhooWee69  I guess that running in fear might be more appropriate, eh?
    6
  250. "yes, civilian ships full of weapons." From where? Why would they use a dangerous sea route to ship weapons in when the route through Poland is safe and unmolested by the Russian forces? It makes no sense to take that dangerous route.
    6
  251. He probably traded Emails with Prigozhin.
    6
  252. Those bigger NATO tanks turning up on the battlefield about now might be big enough to simply drive over the Russian defences that they've prepared for tanks sizes they operate.
    6
  253.  @dudkadudkovich2634  So, half of them are gone? Is that why the Russian army just sails across the landscape unimpeded? Patent nonsense.
    6
  254. Since Ukraine has little seaborne amphibious landing capability, defending against one is a colossal make-work project. Perhaps the Russians need to be building desalination plants instead so that they have a supply of drinking water after having drained the reservoir that fed water into their aqueduct canal.
    6
  255. Alert the Lifeboat services! The Russians are sailing their tubs, again!
    6
  256. Why do you read it /watch it if it bothers you, so?
    6
  257. @Fureori Watch the Russian army SCRAMBLE to Belgorod over the next week leaving the front undermanned. The Ukrainian Generals are fecking brilliant.
    6
  258.  @pauls3204  Yup. The Canadians, the Finns, Swedes and Norwegians ... all experts at winter warfare ... are helping out.
    6
  259. They carried out an overnight strike on another hospital. The Ukrainians just destroyed an arms dump in the occupied territories so naturally, the Russian did it too. Happens every time.
    6
  260. They're sure strutting confidently down a road that could be saturated with mines (hence a lot of those dead vehicles).
    6
  261. Still had the price sticker on it from Honest Ivan's.
    6
  262. Ducks in a shooting gallery ...
    6
  263. Fewer Orcs? Oh, boo-hoo-hoo
    6
  264. I can't imagine that the Russians didn't have a hand in this.
    6
  265. That's "hidden"? Not from drones, that's for sure. It reminds me of the three year old who covers up her eyes and says: "You can't see me!"
    6
  266. Three Minesweepers a year ... now there's a mighty fleet!
    6
  267. They moved Prigozhin's remains back to Russia? Was that at the request of the family?
    6
  268. The lighter the vehicle the smaller and cheaper the drone required to take it out.
    5
  269. Russia's supply of qualified pilots must be going steadily downward. NATO is actually sapping strength from the Russian air force into this sort of pissing contest along the borders. Keep it up, NATO. Really bug the shyte out o the Russians and distract them from their war.
    5
  270. So, there is hope for the post-apocalyiptic Russians.
    5
  271. "How's the Special Military Operation going?" "We're going to need a bigger boat!"
    5
  272. Canada and the US share the defence of North American airspace through NORAD and Canada wasn't allowed to have the F-22 ... and neither was anybody else. The Americans actually passed a law to prevent their export.
    5
  273. Flying in an unsecured airspace would be a really stupid thing to do, don't you think?
    5
  274.  @ryanbayne1033  Well, we're here on an Internet developed by Westerners using computers invented and developed by Westerners over world wide communication networks developed by Westerners while posting in English. Lots to hate, there.
    5
  275. They steal them from where I live and ship them in large numbers to Russia.
    5
  276. They keep telling us that they're okay with using nuclear weapons, never for a second considering that they themselves will receive them in return.
    5
  277. The dead may revolt. Zombie army right to the end.
    5
  278. Made in Canada.

  279. Life is cheap in Russia.
    5
  280. Wagner is a private company. If Ukraine makes him a better offer and pays them in a hard currency ... Dollars, Euros instead of Rubles, you never know.
    5
  281.  @NoYouAreNotDreaming  Maybe, he shot some little kid in Ukraine. Would you feel differently about his welfare if you knew what he did to whom as an invading soldier that is part of an army with a long history of genocide?
    5
  282. Cigarette ...
    5
  283. Show them a mass grave.
    5
  284. See how easy it is to down Russian anti-ship missiles?
    5
  285. Now, they don't have to pay them.
    5
  286. Run Ivan, run! The creatures of the forest will take care of those.
    5
  287. Did any of the Wagner toops ever make it to Belarus or is this all theatre? The traditional way that the Russian army has dealt with mutineers is to put them in front of firing squads and there is no indication beyond someone's vague word about it that it hasn't already happened this time. Prigozhin? Nobody's seen him alive in a video since his protest.This guy LOVES to post videos of himself so why an "audio" only?
    5
  288. Yeah. "Yakety Sax" would be a better choice.
    5
  289. Look at all that fresh cannon fodder!
    5
  290. Here's Ivan with his fake WAPO article, again. Give it up, Ivan.
    5
  291.  @232Invoker  Wouldn't be surprised if Wagner starts rebelling against Putin very soon.
    5
  292. Tsushima 2024

  293.  @DiamondxCyborg  They can stay in Russia. How's that?
    5
  294. Russian life is cheap.
    5
  295. Crazy Ivan.
    5
  296.  @avjoshi4175  You really need to look at a map of Eurasia ... "encircling" Russia? How is that physically possible? Try not to become too hysterical. (You'd be lucky to be absorbed into the West. Your standard of living and lifespan would both increase steeply.)
    5
  297. I heard speculation that it was a stand-alone Patriot (not the full battery engaged) as it has the range.
    5
  298. There are so many ways to deliver nukes all of over Russia in a matter of minutes and bombers are the least likely way to do it. You must remember the 1950s.
    5
  299. Hey, it's whatever they can steal.
    5
  300.  @888Longball  I blame the whole war and the complete incompetent dysfunction of the Russian Federation on fetal alcohol syndrome. It explains why the Russians don't understand that they are doing wrong and why their population is in decline, too.
    5
  301. He's bigly
    5
  302. "The damage was said to be measured in millions of rubles" i.e. hundreds of dollars.
    5
  303. "Ukrainian President Zelenskiy a legitimate military target – Medvedev" "Russsian Prime Minister Medvedev a legitimate military target – Zelenskiy"
    5
  304. Time to hit it again while the Killer Apes are back in the rubble.
    5
  305. It's pretty amazing that there are drones letting us see it blowing up at all. Want to see it up close? The Russian army desperately needs recruits.
    5
  306. They still have intact "elite" units? I find that hard to believe.
    5
  307. AMERIKANSKI!!! AMERIKANSKI!!! The Russians are little children.
    5
  308. Well, you can always go to Ukraine to join up and speed up the counteroffensive. They need the bodies and your expertise seems to be overwhelming.
    5
  309. Why doesn't anyone ever believe you, Ivan?
    5
  310.  @odd6554  There aren't enough Russians to do that.
    5
  311. ... and so what? They can't grow it in the Black Sea because they can't transit the Strait of Dardanelles.
    5
  312.  @oleopathic  It was truly embarrassing. At least, Putin give him a sort of job instead of having him killed, though.
    5
  313. They will never fix that submarine. A Ukrainian scrap dealer will deal with it.
    5
  314. He's a healthy guy. His Russian counterpart probably has electrodes permanently installed on his body, these days.
    5
  315. Careful of open windows. One of those could be the end of Medvedev.
    5
  316.  @JG-xk7ve  The Orange Man is quite bonkers.
    5
  317.  @HunterShows  It would cause Russia to go "ballistic". Nobody is "taking" Russian anything despite the Russian propaganda to the contrary and no one really wants to, either (except for the Chinese who want Siberia back).
    5
  318. Are they gradually pulling out of Crimea?
    5
  319. Those Kadyrovites are as clean as a whistle. No dirty old battlefields for those guys!
    5
  320.  @aarontrompeterrealestatebr6159  "Doesn't mean they CAN'T his us with a nuclear weapon" Think for a second what happens to them if they do that.
    5
  321. Warsaw by Tuesday, eh?
    5
  322. ... vodka ...
    5
  323.  @parrotsarnoso1099  There aren't many of those on the battlefield and Russia's industrial capacity is a sad joke, so every one of them that is turned into a jack-in-the-box is gone forever to Russia. Mostly, mid Cold War era junk is turning up now. Russia's "20,000'" tanks ended up being a sixth of that number and 2,500 are burnt up junk, now.
    5
  324. hahahaha!!! ... against 1960s vintage Soviet gear ... hahahaha!!! That's all the Russians have left hahahaha!!!

  327. Ja! Ja! Ukraine gives Russia the conquered lands and Russia gives .... a ceasefire for five years! You're good, Scholzie.
    4
  328.  @redhammermen3487  Funny. No one does but you, who post this non-sequitur every so often. Donbass in in Ukraine. Why would Ukraine be shelling civilians in Ukraine?
    4
  329. Maybe, they'll seize the ship in some foreign port .
    4
  330. Maybe, there was a fire and explosion in it's electronics suite while they were "trawling".

  331.  @Bluezafiro7824  Russia never stops barking

  332.  @28704joe  Ther mothers get some sort of consolation prize for their dead sons but beyond that, we see little evidence that their mothers do care.

  334. Russia's Hobo army ...

  335. By International law, every square centimeter of occupied land is Ukraine.
    4
  336. "Just like India, S Korea has close relationship with Russia." When did that start? What drugs are you taking?
    4
  337.  @PrayerOfMannesah  South Korea has the 14th largest economy on Earth by GDP. North Korea has the 137th economy based on the same. I don't know where your information comes from but it is not at all acccurate.
    4
  338. Didn't those very same cars leave Crimea a couple of summers ago?
    4
  339. ... anything but a Soviet BMP death box ...
    4
  340. Oh, you poor poor Russians . You are the victims ... always the victims. It must be tough being a Russian when all the bullies victimize you all the time. Does it make you feel inferior?
    4
  341. Was any of it manufactured in this century?
    4
  342.  @dougcoombes8497  Our American neighbours don't believe that we even had a military becaiuse we never made movies bragging of our daring-do. Canada maintained four 25,000 man divisions in WWI so 100,000 at any time right to the end. The Americans fielded 4 million ... but ... the Canadians defeated more German divisions than the Americans did. You don't hear about it because the volunteer Canadians just went back home to their lives after the war as the Americans declared "victory" for their biglieness.

  343. See the brimstone smoke percolating up from under the head stone? Are they buried in Plot 666 by any chance?

  346. Have you ever noticed how there is always a huge mismatch between Russian claims and reality?
    4
  347. "Stray cigarette ... nothing to see here. Keep moving. Keep moving."
    4
  348. They are the defenders so if the usual rule-of-thumb for losses of defenders against attackers in an urban battlefield holds true, the poor Russians lost 60 000 people in this small town.
    4
  349. ... and yet, here you are!
    4
  350. Turtle tanks are limited to such a narrow angle of turret traverse that they likely aren't much use as tanks anyway.
    4
  351. It's a pretty average multi-role Frigate that wheezed into Havana Harbour. All the Western navies are quivvering with fear at this deployment of the AWESOME beaar's navy. The country that has never won a sea battle, in a shrinking , rusting navy of the obsolete Krasniflot is comical at best.
    4
  352.  @tarik9n  High octane Vodka

  353. The S400 that's going to conquer the planet ... IT'S MIGHTY! IT'S AWESOME! It's missing in action.
    4
  354. Maybe, NATO countries can equip Wagner with .... Omygod! What am I saying?!
    4
  355. Prigozhin is long dead, now. He LOVED to post videos of himself and he hasn't done so in three weeks. He's long. long gone. This is Putin Theatre.
    4
  356. Oh, that sounds quintessentially Russian to me.
    4
  357. " ... a border wall out of plywood..." This makes Trump look like a genius.
    4
  358.  @fritzraake22  Probably are. Russia doesn't produce much of anything so they would all come from the outside. This time next year, maybe we see some of those cars being towed by donkeys in Russia.

  359.  @maximsl  Each one comes with a siphon hose under the front seat.
    4
  360. Ruskie cookers light first time, every time.
    4
  361. Wow! Beach sand! What an awesome, impervious material to construct fortifications out of. Is each Russian conscript issued with a little plastic shovel and bucket, now? (I wonder where those hundreds of imaginary landing craft are going to come from? Don't you think that the Ukrainians would make better use of them by crossing the Dnipro?)
    4
  362. The far more likely outcome of the provocations is that Poland will destabilize Belarus as they react to Lukashenko's incompetence.

  363. "Oddjob" meets Dr. Doom.

  364. This person caannot visit a very long list of countries because he is subject to arrest for war crimes if he does.

  365. This is the MANPATS vs. tank battle just like the one a year ago exactly that the Ukrainian army won.
    4
  366.  @sot11cat  A lot of Siberia belongs to China and you can fully expect that they want it back. What better time than when the Russian military is so depleted and weakened.

  370. p.s. Love that shot of the Canadian icebreaker HMCS Harry deWolf at 1:15.
    4
  371. They've switched to big wind-up keys
    4
  372.  @Slick-vo9hp  If you agree to the terms, you agree to the Russian army returning for more in five years.
    4
  373. Love the sequence of the now retired Canadian Navy Sea King from 0:52 to 1:19. and again from 1:34 to 1:48. They were in service for generations ... literally.
    4
  374.  @Yuri_Volkov  Wagner isn't Russian military. They are on the edge of being at war with the Russian military.
    4
  375. You know what mythical Norse creature lives under bridges? It's name starts with a "T".
    4
  376. Great. Litter Europe with 60 year old rust buckets. Classy.
    4
  377. Yeah and he's in command!
    4
  378. I wonder if that was near Konigsberg or off that small slice of Russia at the end of the Baltic? Russian airspace is a pretty small part of that sea.
    4
  379.  @capricorn839  They might have been looking for boots, gear and ammunition to take off the bodies. Maybe, they lost a case of vodka under the rubble.
    4
  380. Belarus needs to string up Lukashenko before he brings massive disaster to their country. The time is now.
    4
  381. Why on earth would Ukraine waste their precious resources on invading a Belarus that has not yet attacked them. Don't you think that opening up a front where none exists is a folly at this point in the conflict? The Ukrainian General Staff have proven that they are very, very good and nothing of the sort is going to happen. Hysteria.
    4
  382. Acting Interior Minister acting like a pin cushion, today?
    4
  383. Maybe, they select the ones that are sober that day and call them "elite".

  384. Merry Christmas, Ivan !
    4
  385. ... sleepin' wit da fishes ...
    4
  386. Medvedev ... All hat and no cattle.

  387. Ukraine will get help from all over the wealthy part of the World. Russia, on the other hand will be economically destroyed now that the World has seen how dangerous an intact Russia is to all of us.
    4
  388. The depleted Russian armed forces would never be able to pull it off. The professional army is all dead. A hundred or two hundred thousand conscripts without equipment will not do the job. Paper bear.
    4
  389. You keep quoting this mysterious WAPO article that no one but you has read, Ivan. The gig is up. Time for you to "mobilize" and do something worthwhile.
    4
  390. ...those high tech kindergarten seeking missiles.
    4
  391.  @Smithsj82  Yes. A rifle bolt sound would be an excellent motivator.
    4
  392. That makes no sense whatsoever. You use what works. Period.
    4
  393. Sure! Just step in front of one and "soak up" all the titanium balls.
    4
  394. ... and "X" number of Russian, etc.desertions ...
    4
  395.  @piashahmed7791  NATO doctrine is to #1) control the air space and NATO has ample resources right near by to do that quickly, unlike Russia who's air force appears to hve been too small and unprepared for their invassion.
    4
  396. I'm sure if the United States flew an aircraft into China proper, the Chinese would get very upset. Just how much of the Pacific Ocean do you consider to be "China's Coastline?
    4
  397. Ummm, no. The drones go 600 mph. The HYPE! HYPE! HYPE! Hypersonics go that fast but after they use up thier dozen or two inventory of them it's bye-bye Ivan.
    4
  398. The last invasion attempt from Belarus back in February turned out to be a failure. Ukraine has a much bigger, better trained and equipped military now and has had the time to prepare their defences along very difficult border geography. Do the Russians really expect a different outcome? Are they really that stupid?
    4
  399. When did Mother Russia have well disciplined soldiers. Not in this century, not in the last century...

  400. "Unguided missiles" They can't get the guidance electronics so they fall back on WWII style unguided rockets..

  412.  @threethrushes  Their Soviet era navy is more or less totally obsolete. Warships cost money ... lots and lots of it and Russia does not generate that sort of wealth so they are tobogganing downhill on their Soviet assets here as well as on the battlefield.
    3
  413. Do they pay you to post in Rubles or in real money? Have you been paid lately?
    3
  414. It's in the Baltic now which potentially could be mined by the idiot Russians as well.
    3
  415. NATO isn't engaged, yet. The Russian military have not attacked NATO yet bringing them into the war and that tells me they're afraid of NATO.
    3
  416. Those Wagnerites are all pushing up the sunflowers by now.
    3
  417. Oh, look. It's the Putin that can walk. Is that Putin #1, Putin #2 or Putin #3?
    3
  418. "Z" It's the new swastika.
    3
  419.  @ipinsos2000  Canada NEVER, EVER barks. Most of her allies do it with a bull horn and tell us all how bigly big they are but Canada is notably quiet and subtle about her military achievements. You have it exactly backwards.

  420.  @blacksteedofdeath5808  lol you must be an American.

  421. They're going to call the new organization the Gustav Mahlers.

  423.  @trexmidnite  Russia's mighty Hobo army
    3
  424.  @bramantyoprahoro7284  Very dangerous situation for the Russians with Ukranian drones flying over them after being unable to advance more than a couple of kilometers during the 10 months that they've tried.
    3
  425.  @markshort9098  It's like their tanks. On paper, Russia Claims to have 20,000 tanks but we're seeing 1960's ones on the battlefield so the actual number is a fraction of that. Nukes need ongoing extremely expensive maintenance. Russia is too poor to have the arsenal that they claim to have and they're so corrupt, maintenance money is "diverted".
    3
  426. ... ends Russia.
    3
  427. All generalizations are wrong.
    3
  428.  @ТушинСемён  This is unreadable jibberish.
    3
  429. It's a "target rich environment. I wonder how many submarines are following that big Russian dinosaur?
    3
  430. Why waste a perfectly good drone on a building that doesn't do anything, yet? Propaganda bullshit ...
    3
  431. "The liberation of the Crimea will happen when it is “warm”" ...and dry and the water runs out ...
    3
  432.  @davestambaugh7282  The Russians said that they would never invade Ukraine when the Ukrinians surrendered their nuclear weapons.
    3
  433. Russia is all hat and no cattle when it comes to attacking NATO countries.
    3
  434. Good stuff. Now mine it on the Russian side.
    3
  435. I saw the Moscow Circus years ago. Those motley looking bears did exactly what they were told to do. I suppose their claws and teeth had all been pulled out ...
    3
  436. Don't you wish that Russia had friends?
    3
  437. Can't wait for the Bradleys ...
    3
  438. This is identical to the Canadian contribution to date: 8 Leopard 2s and one Leopard "wrecker" recovery vehicle. If every NATO member sent just that number, there would be 240 tanks on their way.
    3
  439. I thought that was a Coca-Cola can.

    3
  443.  @machbaby  They actually don't. The majority of the coast line of the Black Sea is owned by NATO countries. By the way, we've watched Russian aircraft flying right up to our airspace in Canada for seventy years. I suppose you think that they own the Arctic Ocean, too?
    3
  444.  @larsrons7937  WODKA!!
    3
  445.  @jacksoncronin9540  That's why Putin has become nervous about Wagner. They are powerful enough to directly confront Putin's praetorian guard.

  456. Too bad there are no bear or wolves left in the Ukrainian forest.
    3
  457. Your posts are endlessly amusing.

  458. The Russians really believe that they are a great power, still. Somebody tell them that it's only a dream, now a quarter of the way through the 21st Century.

  462.  @dark_master_Makei  That's because the poplation hasn't figured out the truth, yet. Anyway, how much jail time do you face if you don't support Putin?
    3
  463.  @888Longball  The big problem with that is they try to subject others to their delusional universe by force.

  464. yeah, yeah, It was Ukraine that invaded itself.

  465. Life is cheap when you're a Russian soldier.

  466. Theatre. That missile could be launched from the North Pole with the exact same effect anywhere on Earth.
    3
  467. "Senior Russian officer warned: Conflict in Ukraine could turn into a large-scale war in Europe" With your wasted and debilitated army? I don't think so.

  469. Russian will eat themselves.
    3
  470. You see one of them pointing out the brawl on the training ground?
    3
  471. No, no! ALL of the drones were sucessfully shot down by glorious Russian air defenses! The fires were caused by falling debris nudgning the arm of a refinery worker (smoking inside the refinery) who dropped his cigarette.
    3
  472. The Russians shot down all the missiles and that was a cigarette.
    3
  473. The Killer Apes did nothing to help evacuate their occupied civilians South of the Dnipro because they all withdrew just before they blew the dam.
    3
  474. The important point is "Do the Russians think there are medical workers at the front?"
    3
  475. That might actually be caused by a stray cigarette. ... or maybe it's karma for phosphorus bombing Bakhmut yesterday.
    3
  476. Now a fourth ... India.

    3
  481. No kidding!
    3
  482.  @paulpanter1092  Won't that be a shock. China has made it very clear that they want their old empire back. they have also given little aid to a Russian army that gets weaker by the day.
    3
  483. Bigtime. Widespread. Endemic to the whole country.
    3
  484. NORAD : "North American Air Defence Command." ... anywhere on Earth? Hmmm.
    3
  485. They're probably better fed and dressed than when they were deployed with the Russian army. I wonder what the FSB is going to do to them after they were taken prisoner? Their great-grandfathers would have "disappeared" them.

  486. "Paramilitarization" a.k.a. "Warlords"

  488. I love the quality of Russian propaganda releases. He could have been anywhere when this was shot.
    3
  489. What does Washington and Paris have to do with Leopard and Challenger tanks?
    3
  490. "US wants to give Kyiv more long-range missiles" How about Minuteman II?
    3
  491. Spontaneous vodka explosions are a thing when there is so much o it lying about
    3
  492.  @Amradar123  True, I didn't mention that permanent 15° list to starboard she takes on when they flush the heads.
    3
  493. "After Suffering Heavy Losses ..." Of course, you know that, do you?
    3
  494.  @parrotsarnoso1099  China can't make them either. They get advanced chips from the US, Japan, Korea and ironically Taiwan (which tells you why they want to invade). China is a copy-cat, not an inventor.
    3
  495. Hyenas fighting over a piece of rotting carrion ...
    3
  496. Notice that they aren't paying their troops what is owed.

  502.  @operator9858  "patriot" You think that I'm an American, do you? Do they pay you to post? Do they pay you in Rubles or in real money?
    2
  503. ... and then there's the Russian trolls ...
    2
  504. Russia would only do it once and would immediately lose the ability to ever do it again.
    2
  505.  @JoeZorzin  The Taliban is pretty nasty. It is not unreasonable to attempt to remove them. However, most Afghsanis seem to want them or they would have stopped their rapid return.
    2
  506. The liberated cow looks happy, too. I'm surprised that the Russians didn't eat it.
    2
  507. Russia has an economy that is a tiny fraction of that of the NATO countries. There is no contest ... a NATO giant and a Russian pipsqueak.
    2
  508. It's a cockroach infestation. They need the "big boot".
    2
  509. There is no unsinkable anything, anywhere.
    2
  510. Stealth, you know. Can't see it.
    2
  511. Maybe, that's what happens when you empty out your prisons and send your murderers, thieves, paedophiles and psychopaths to the Front.
    2
  512. Yeah, Lukashenko doesn't want the same deal that Prigozhin made to be a pile of ashes in an urn.
    2
  513. Actually, it's most of the old Prussia if you check out the maps.
    2
  514. We're all forwarned, this time. The Germans realized the natural gas from Russia was leverage for blackmail and NATO is larger and more co-ordinated than ever. We're on to their game. (Trump is going to lose).
    2
  515. You reminded me of an old Soviet saying: "We'll pretend to work if you pretend to pay us."
    2
  516. That Russian commander better stay away from open windows.
    2
  517.  @786otto  I think that the Canadian tanks (we saw them flying there) are all in Poland where a Canadian army contingent is using them to train up Ukrainian fighters. Yesterday, for example Canada pledged to send Canadian C-7/C-8 rifles to Ukraine. Well, the videos from the very beginning often show these Canadian made weapons in the hands of Ukraine fighters. You are seeing nothing because nobody in Canada is publicizing them. The Americans are sure publicizing their tanks even though they're not likely to show up in Ukraine until Christmas 2024. The Americans are experts at blowing their horn.
    2
  518. Canada sent what they pledged to send quite a while ago and added a Leopard II Wrecker as well. It's not a lot but combined with similar sized contributions, it will make up a pretty sharp spear. Which "everyone" has let you down?
    2
  519. Russia has already lost. Russia will not emerge from this intact.
    2
  520. The life expectancy of a Russian male was already 16.4 years shorter than a male in my country. With the huge loss of life and out migration among young Russian males right now, the demographics of that already screwed up place will leave negative economic echos for a lot of this century, there.
    2
  521. They'll have to decide on what counteroffensive to pursue dependent on which high security documents someone like Kevin McCarthy, Jim Jordan, Ted Cruz or Marjorie Taylor Greene spill to help their friend Putin out.
    2
  522. Oh, no. Those poor men. Run Yuri, run!
    2
  523. They don't defend themselves as well and it's easier to get a kill.
    2
  524. It's true. If they start getting hurt, it will stiffen their resolve. Bombing campaigns always do that. You can scare them, though and maybe they'll start asking questions.
    2
  525.  @Swmpzor  That's not a country.
    2
  526. "Yes russia have not invented radar systems " They invented the HYPED! HYPED! HYPED! missiles and of course that radar that is really good at shooting down civilian airliners.
    2
  527. Cigarette
    2
  528. Anyone crewing one of those Russian tanks in which the ammunition cooks off so readily would be incinerated to ashes. There must be a few thousand old Soviet armoured vehicles littering the battlefield full of cremated Russian.
    2
  529. Vodka stains ... they needed a handy accelerant.
    2
  530. Maybe, enough to put Russian terrorists off so that they don't hit it with an RPG?
    2
  531.  @kbolt1000  It is a man portable recoilless rifle and it most certainly is not one time use. A CG can be used hundreds of times. You can see them reloading them twice in the video. They are quite powerful. They are known as "bunker busters" and are often operated by two men.
    2
  532. The problem will be preventing the Thunder Flash from setting fire to the tank and blowing it up. It seems to be an easy thing to do with those countless drone videos showing small grandees destroying Russian tanks. Maybe even stray cigarettes ...
    2
  533. Havnig the stone cold heart of an assasin is a major health issue, there.

  534. AMERIKANSKI!! Americanski/NATO Orbital Tornado Weapon. AMERIKANSKI!!

  535. He'll be "disappeared" lest he cashes that cheque.

  536. Maybe, those swan boats ....
    2
  537. It's still happening in the Palestinian territories as outsiders like Hamas try to gain control.
    2
  538.  @sammymcfone8281  Maybe time to add Novichok to that water supply there, eh?
    2
  539. That's how you build a top-notch army ... PRESS GANGS!
    2
  540. Russia using 50s-era soldiers as it's stock is completely depleted.
    2
  541. You end up with a really crappy army that loses.
    2
  542. Do they know how to use it?
    2
  543.  @thesupremekingdragonzarc7289  Oh, I see. It was so nonspecific.
    2
  544.  @thesupremekingdragonzarc7289  Into the vodka already, eh Zarc?
    2
  545. I'm surprised that their crews haven't all been drafted into trenches in Ukraine. Maybe, they spared the ethnic Russians and sent the others.
    2
  546. "Row, row, row your boat ..."
    2
  547. Stray cigarette thrown out by AMERIKA!!!
    2
  548. Merry Christmas, Ivan.
    2
  549. I guess that Moscow wasn't paying Wagner's invoices.
    2
  550. Life is cheap in Russia. That's why they're such an "awesome civilization".
    2
  551. Yeah, but they're fighting for the existence of their people against an enemy that has declared a genocidal ending for Ukraine. You'd fight to the last man/woman if you were in that situation.
    2
  552. The Russian trolls should observe that South Korea now has a bigger economy than Russia' despite Russian attempts to turn it into a giant prison camp like the North Korea the Russians helped to create.
    2
  553. Ding-dang Furriners ...
    2
  554. Oh, good! Keep them falling from the sky.
    2
  555.  @samura4798  We're doing just fine ... peace, prosperity and economic growth. Jealous?
    2
  556. Get out of there, fast!
    2
  557.  @LliamMoore  Okay. "GRUNT! GRUNT! GRUNT! SQUEEEEEEEL! Did I get yours right, "Lliam"?
    2
  558. Notice the wide white identifying stripes on those vehicles. That's something new. I guess that a smallish cross wasn't ptominent enough and maybe there have been too many friendly fire losses.
    2
  559. ... and you pretend to pay us for it.
    2
  560. Cigarette ....
    2
  561. Another "Russian" from some far flung Russian imperial possession way up north in Eurasia.
    2
  562. My father spent WWII patrolling over the Indian Ocean, doing 18 hour long zig-zags and box searches over the equator using nothing more than a sextant and really good mathematical skills. There were zero navigational aids in that part of the world at that time.They always made it back to their little specks in the big ocean. Technology is not necessary if you are competent.
    2
  563. AMERIKANSKI!! AMERIKANSKI!!
    2
  564. Is it drone season already?
    2
  565. I wonder if they completed them or have they been pressed into service with some of the electronics not functioning because they can't get the chips? Watch for Russian gunners to be sighting down the barrels.
    2
  566. It's a "hypersonic" tank.
    2
  567. The only strategic value of Bakhmut is symbolism. It would sure be a slap in Ivan's face if it were retaken, though despite it being pretty much useless real estate. I suppose it will be worth in to make the Russians look ridiculous. Breaking Russia's morale in the field is how Ukraine has to win this war.
    2
  568. British electronic circuitry? Lots of luck, Ivan.
    2
  569.  @operator9858  "The West" is a civilization of 2 billion people. It begins in Mycenaean Greece and continues on to this day. There have been many empires within it over the millennia. My country is one of the few that has never formed/conquered one. I'm sorry that your Russian empire was excluded from Western civilization. Every civilization has it's bloody, uncouth barbarians at the gate trying to destroy it and today's is the Russian Asiatic Empire.
    2
  570. If history teaches us anything, when Ukraine makes a publicized move like this, something else is going on instead. "Sleight of Hand" ...
    2
  571. You figure that NATO is a single entity that "just decides" these things in spite of their charter?
    2
  572. Where did they steal those bikes from?
    2
  573.  @bramantyoprahoro7284  They've been trained by the Canadians, British and Americans to be one of those since 2014.
    2
  574.  @LORRAINE54500  I totally agree and so did Putin when he personally signed off to that when the Soviet Union ended.
    2
  575.  @michaeljones825  Is that my opinion? By the way, I'm not an American so nice try. "The West" is not an entity like one of your oblasts. It is a civilization that encompases all of the Americas, all of South and Western Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Singapore South Korea, Taiwan... and it doesn't "say" anything.
    2
  576.  @vegas1a  ... exactly ... but worse.
    2
  577. Wager is in their "special barracks" hurriedly dug in the forest and hurriedly covered up with a bulldozer after they "took possession".
    2
  578. Concentration Camps are a big part of Eastern European culture. It gives them a warm, fuzzy feeling to see them full of frightened people.
    2
  579.  @Amradar123  So. it will be sunk near where it was built. There is poetry in that.
    2
  580. No "stray cigarettes"?
    2
  581.  @PaulusN-p3m  It won't keep the crews from cooking.
    2
  582. Careful, Macron. Napoleon's Grande Arrmee was brought down by a massive syphillis epidemic originating with Russian women.
    2
  583. Bakhmut is working like a lobster trap that's settled to the bottom, unretrievable by the fisherman. Lobsters die inside and the meat attracts more lobsters and that attracts more lobsters who die in the trap and that attracts more lobsters ...
    2
  584. The supply of pilots to man those geriatric choppers will be even more limited. The crews don't generally survive helicopter crashes and it would take some time to train replacements.
    2
  585.  @krt5524  If the Russians get into their vehicles, drive back into Russia and stay there, the war ends that day and no more Russian casualties go home.
    2
  586. The "Storm" unit .... Are you sure that isn't a mistranslated "Stunned" unit? It looks like a homeless shelter.
    2
  587. Wow. What are the Ukrainians going to do with 150,000 miserable Russian troops surrendering at once?
    2
  588. Another week ... another delusional Russian troll. You'll be in Warsaw next week, eh Ivan?
    2
  589. Belarus is much weaker than Russia, Ukraine, Poland, the Baltic countries, Finland. Lukashenko is all hat and no cattle.
    2
  590. Hey, Belarus. Pick a fight with the Poles and make our day.
    2
  591. Russian tanks? probably. They nblo up with the slightest provocation.
    2
  592.  @ДмитрийИванов-к2у  So, victory is at hand, eh? The mighty Russian army has moved a couple of kilometers in a couple of places in a whole year and a half (and Ukraninan forces moved a similar amount). There is no end to the glory and might of Russia! You are the Master Race!!
    2
  593. Why do they keep using the term "hostage" when they mean Prisoners of War? They have very different legal meanings in English and taking "hostages" is a war crime while taking "prisoners" is really an humanitarian act (as opposed to not taking prisoners).
    2
  594. By 2028? Oh, they're "fast tracking" delivery.
    2
  595. If only you knew him ...
    2
  596.  @chriscarlino5561  "Russia make more artillery per month than the US" That tells you what a sick place Russia is. The men firing the dodgy shells give a crap about them not fitting in the breech, getting stuck in the breech, exploding prematurely while being loaded in the breech.
    2
  597.  @Mangoshake2021  Nothing nowhere in the World is "safe" in Russian hands.
    2
  598. The cigarette lighter manufacturer Ronson used to have a slogan that they "Light first time, every time".
    2
  599. The response will erase Russia and a lot of her people. Kremlin propagandist can blah-blah-blah silly notions all day long as their audience isn't very discerning. Besides, NATO is a 32 country alliance and taking out the headquarters does not take out the 32 nations or their military. They'd be nuking a big conference center, not the brains of the alliance.
    2
  600. "Kremlin says" ... Honest Vlad sez ... He met Prigozhin in his office. Vladimir was seated at his long table and Prigozhin was in a funerary jar at the other end.
    2
  601. I like the picture of the sunken Moskva @ 0.06! Anyway, the Russians are mining off Odessa again to prevent Ukrainian grain from reaching Africa and feeding people there.
    2
  602. They won't get compensation because according to Russian law, they never left Russia and therefore it isn't a deployment to a war.
    2
  603. "US will deliver Abrams tanks to Ukraine by the end of this year" Well, like they said during WWI and WWII ... "Better late than never."
    2
  604. Those ships WILL NOT LIKE ICE and that will keep them from roaming very far from the Russian shore.
    2
  605. There is a real "old Soviet" vibe to this video. Evolution has passed them by.
    2
  606. I wonder how many of these "winners" will be pulled from the line and disappeared somewhere so that the Russian military doesn't have to pay their bounties?
    2
  607. Ahhh, those peace-loving genocidal Russians .... This guy is an official government mouthpiece.
    2
  608.  @mikeamory7418  ... and get a square meal and better treatment ...
    2
  609. Probably the best uniforms they've ever worn.
    2
  610. "Russia's Prigozhin claims full control of Bakhmut " What? NOT AGAIN! ... more propaganda for the drunks back at home.
    2
  611. They will hunt each other soon because Prigozhin has a big mouth.
    2
  612.  @pietbiertappertje4529  Your information is out of date ... allowed now.
    2
  613. "If West sends troops to Ukraine, Russia will launch a nuclear attack on Washington, Paris and London" No they won't. If Russia did that, Russia and the Russian people would not last the day. and Putin himself likely would not survive that hour.
    2
  614. Those should be able to reach the Russian fleet in Sevastopol and the Kersh Bridge.
    2
  615. I'm a 67 year old Canadian naval vet and I was laughing my ass off as the Russians abandoned their still-floating but ridiculous phallic display cruiser Moskva a year ago. They're just as bad as we imagined them to be fifty years ago.
    2
  616.  @claus-not-santa  They're a century ahead of Russia now that they've joined the EU.
    2
  617.  @claus-not-santa  One modern human being thanking another one. The Russian cave men don't get it.
    2
  618.  @timcarmichael  Yeah, the'yre Soviet hand-me-downs to a Russia that can no longer obtain things like that because they came from places like Ukraine.
    2
  619. ... a stolen toilet put in a stolen car. The Russians fancy themselves as being some sort of "civilization" ... inheritors of the Ancient Greeks. The reality s that they are literally the inheritors of Genghis Khan's looting Mongol hordes, not the classical civilization of the Mediterranean..
    2
  620. Do Prigozhins have wings?
    2
  621. Oh, the Russians like those missiles and they shoot EVERY ONE OF THEM down ... ... or not.
    2
  622. Putin's Hobo army ...
    2
  623. They're digging "barracks" for Wagner.
    2
  624.  @juanbarus2616  They blow up when you drop a single grenade on them. The warranty on a BMP must be full of holes.
    2
  625. They are the "Ladas" of combat vehicles
    2
  626. Honest Vlad? ... a LIAR?
    2
  627. Is that what happened? You're the first one to suggest it. What do you know that the rest of us don't?
    2
  628. Good! Concentrate your forces! That never goes well for the Russians.
    2
  629. Notice the calluses on their knuckles from walking.
    2
  630. With Finland now part of NATO, their Northern shores a bit more secure and the Russian army diminished, the Estonians may be feeling that the direct risk to them has gone down some .
    2
  631. If they showed the corpses, they wouldn't be able to post it for you on here.
    2
  632. That's a lot of new Ladas. Maybe, the Russians will switch to giving away North Korean cars because they can't keep up with the demand..
    2
  633.  @Privat2840  The Russians had good optics for a time after they disassembled the Zeiss factory in Jena and shipped it all into Russia post-war. You can't loot knowledge, though.
    2
  634. They shouldn't have bothered. The Jews already have those and they're orbiting in space.
    2
  635. I wonder how much money they get for each kidnapped Ukrainian child?
    2
  636.  @vrado441  Oh, hundreds of times more along with all of the HIMARS, Western tanks and squadrons of F-16s.
    2
  637. ... and rugs
    2
  638. It will be the mother of all battles.
    2
  639.  @operator9858  " yet the ruble is currently one of the most stable currencies on earth" AAAAHAHAHAHAHAAH! ... stable Third World currency.
    2
  640.  @operator9858  100 rubles will buy a cup of coffee in most countries. Cheaper than that.
    2
  641. Nor would a "victorious" country be threatening to use nukes every week.
    2
  642. Having to re-form/re-build brigades is definitely a sign of heavy losses. You take the straggler survivors and try to build new units out of them.
    2
  643. It's positively Trumpesque.
    2
  644. This was predicted a couple of years ago.
    2
  645. Wouldn't it be a shock if someone treated the Russias the way the Russians treat everyone else? You are victims ... always victims. Poor you. Russians are so weak and meek that everyone picks on them. Victims.
    2
  646. Belarus gets the nukes that don't work in case they turn them on Russia. It's all theatre to get the Europeans to second guess themselves.
    2
  647.  @dark_master_Makei  " It is enough for Russia to launch a rocket and in two minutes it would be there."  ... no one but this dim bulb ...
    2
  648.  @dark_master_Makei  WOW! We'd better all surrender now! Do you have ANY IDEA what you're up against if your troops head any further west? ... launch whatever cruise missles you have left at the West? You are so "zombied" by your propaganda, you can't grasp what reality looks like.
    2
  649.  @dark_master_Makei  ... and the idiot, moronic Russians still haven't figured out that there are THREE nuclear armed NATO members, each with their own independent nuclear forces (that work!) and the Russian people will be vapourized more of less. Russians are slow.
    2
  650. До свидания
    2
  651. We Canadians dabble in the North now and again. Part time reservists spend their weekends training at 30 below all winter.
    2
  652. Great. Now the Canadian Coast Guard and Armed Forces will be picking up frozen Chinese-sickles all over the Arctic as they find out how truly dangerous and bleak it really is up there.
    2
  653.  @parallelsuns1  Yeah but the B-52 was already a generation or two ahead of the Tupolevs when they were first built and the Americans are rich enough to constantly upgrade them. Three Russians are piss poor and you have to wonder if they still have avionics in them that use vacuum tubes.
    2
  654. Those will be awesome working together in a battle group with the new Leopards. Teach the Russians what mechanized warfare looks like in the 21st century.
    2
  655.  @wanderertotalwar883  He's made it his baby. After nine months of fighting, he still can't deliver on his boast. It's personal for Putin. We are not talking about a normal human being.
    2
  656. We used to have an old Cold War navy joke: "How do you get a Russian submarine to surface?" "just drop a bar of soap over the rail."
    2
  657. Flying a fighter plane is perhaps the hardest job in the world. The Internet experts seem to think that it's like Driver's Ed.
    2
  658. Motivation among the Russian soldiers must be pretty thin at this point in the conflict and it probable that we will see secondary lines of defence crumbling when they are challenged.
    2
  659. 'Temporary" is what they are.
    2
  660.  @homuchoghoma6789  You drive a Lada? Who's in a harness pulling you aound in it?
    2
  661.  @user-im5vi8rx9g  Ahhh, yes. The Russiaan Nazi salute.
    2
  662. Sleep is going to be hard to get in Belgorod from now on just like it is in Ukrainian cities.
    2
  663. Definitely vodka ....
    2
  664. 400,000 drunken hobos are waiting for you.
    2
  665. Huge HUGE!! I guess that the Russian army will be driving in victory to the Polish border tomorrow, then. What happens when that never happens, Ivan?
    2
  666. "Russia's next target in Europe: Norway’s Svalbard Archipelago" Suuuure it is. What a pointless place to invade and therefore invoke NATO Article 5.
    2
  667. Those little blocks can be dragged away with a Hummer or a jeep. They are quite small. Look at a WWII German one for comparison. The Russian contractor cheated on the concrete he used, I'll bet.
    2
  668. The Ukrainians held a referendum there last night and the results are in this morning showing that 99.7% of them want to join Ukraine.
    2
  669. Vlad the Impaler and Comrade Kim ... the Axis of Weevels.
    2
  670. Turn the sound off. This channel captions everything.
    2
  671. The Kilos are diesel boats too, not nuclear.
    2
  672. Mobilizing scrap metal ... they are SERIOUSLY desperate! Can you imagine these Marshal Zhukov specials up against Challengers or Leopard 2s? They will literally be picked off one by one in line like tin ducks at a shooting gallery. Don't the Russians give a fig about all the men who will die without a chance in them? I guess that life is so cheap in Russia that a Russian soldier has no value at all.
    2
  673. Actually, by 1918 these trenches were obsolete and already being breached by tanks.
    2
  674. Plugging up that road so that no one can go in either direction on it is a matter of one or two well timed Hymars strikes. Do any of you history buffs know about the Falaise Pocket? It became the killing zone of the German army in the West.
    2
  675. They'll fill it with radar operators and cooks from the Russian navy.
    2
  676.  @dudkadudkovich2634  "Do you have any idea what a military reserve is?" Yes. I was part of one for forty years after my Armed Forces service. "you think very categorically, like a child," I'm a 66 year old in a country where we're mentally more organized than the Russians ... or so our comparative economic activity would suggest (Our GDP per capita is more than 4x that of a Russian)'
    2
  677. That's where the stray cigarettes are stockpiled.
    2
  678. The moron behind come to a complete stop and waits ... for something-or-other . ... like another incoming round. It show how appalling poorly the Russian troops are trained. No wonder they're losing.
    2
  679. Russian air defense is SO AWESOME, they shot down each and every attacking drone. ... right over each target aircraft.
    2
  680. They are the cornerstone of the Russian economy.
    2
  681. Killer apes instinctively kill.
    2
  682. English is their 4th or 5th language.
    2
  683. That area is now thinly defended by the Russians are they pulled back their forces from the region just before they blew the dam. The Russians also drowned parts of their depth defences and that is now a weak spot ripe for liberation. It also controls the Northern access to Crimea and expect Russian bodies to be stacked high there pretty soon.
    2
  684.  @kathleenmann7311  They seem to know that the flood was coming.
    2
  685. Getting to poop smell out from the back seat 'll be a bigger chore.
    2
  686. Time will tell. The daily blow-by-blow won't tell much.
    2
  687.  @johnh8615  Have you ever heard of the old English Royal household position of "Groom of the Stool"?
    2
  688. The Free World might not. The United States might very well stop supporting you.
    2
  689. Remember the "contemptible little army" of 1914? They won, eventually.
    2
  690.  @gregoryhodge6352  ... and 30 other NATO allies.
    2
  691. Russia has a larger army now composed of under trained (and untrained) conscripts. The professional Russian army all died.
    2
  692. Tear gas might have been a good idea.
    2
  693.  @hksp  ... if only the Russian people knew what is really happening...
    2
  694. Doomed to all be Russsicles.
    2
  695. Trump is a Russian mole.
    2
  696. The one guy who couldn't leave town said: "NYET!" and then the Russians shot him.
    2
  697. That's pretty funny, really.
    2
  698. They haven't armored the sides of warships since WWII. Attack the machinery spaces back aft though by all means like they did to that Russian tanker last night. Anyway, no one is going to bother fixing a 50 year old ship like this, anyway.
    2
  699. Those HYPED!! HYPED!! HYPED!! hypersonics were going to conquer the World, three year ago.
    2
  700.  @easygamingwwiigamingchanne729  That is clearly so. The Moskovits don't seem to be very bright.

  701. Lizards sunning themselves on the rocks ...
    2
  702. Typically Russian though, isn't it?
    2
  703. The new Russian Naval Drone is powered by four Mobilized drunkards paddling like hell.
    2
  704.  @TheB1nary  "Hands up! How many of you Russian men that are left are ready and willing to go into combat?" "(Count the hands, Yuri)" "Ill say it again. HOW MANY OF YOU RUSSIAN MEN ..."
    2
  705.  @BingoPaletot  ... and that is when Western Europe was buying all their natural gas output.
    2
  706. I'm sure that the Russian occupiers in Crimea thought "The war is never going to reach us!" a year ago.
    2
  707. No, no. It's not possible! The Russians say they destroyed all the HIMARs launchers three or four times over last year followed by the telling us that they shoot down each and every HIMARS missile that is launched. The Russians tell no lies.
    2
  708.  @besnikillyrian8520  "T90 was at front since the begin but in small numbers" The numbers are getting smaller and smaller.
    2
  709. There's a Frigate tied up in Antwerp.
    2
  710. ... a Grunt of Killer Apes ...
    2
  711. Those HIMARS have warheads full of little tungsten shrapnel balls and they shred everything around them in a wide radius when they go off. It's just that we're not allowed to see that happen on YouTube.
    2
  712. "Yesterday I was a homeless drunken bum stumbling down the Prospekt and today I'm a Specialist."
    2
  713. The Russians never established air dominance over Ukraine and they don't dare put aircraft up in anything larger than ones or twos.
    2
  714. How many Russian soldiers were anihilated in a week during WWI? Russia eventually sued for peace (surrendered) in that conflict.
    2
  715. Vladivostok ... isn't that occupied Chinese territory? I wonder what the Chinese are going to do with those remains after they've reclaimed it? Maybe, a big bonfire?
    2
  716. It must be hard running when you have poop in your pants.
    2
  717. They use those for mid-air refueling. I hope that fuel isn't leaking out into the water an turning it into an environmental disaster.
    2
  718. How much do you bet that Ramzan can't fly?
    2
  719. Hitch Babushka up to the Lada with a harness and have her pull you around. "Giddy-up, Grandma!"
    2
  720. Those are big warheads cooking off.
    2
  721. They'd be tried and convicted of some heinous something-or-other in a Russian court in an afternoon.

  722. A ten year sentence beats the hell out of the eternal sentence of feeding the sunflowers every summer.
    2
  723. Wind + Waves + Vodka ... always a bad combination.

  724. I can't imagine why one would.
    2
  725.  @КостюковЮрий  I'm not an American. Nice try though, Ivan. By the way, do they pay you in Rubles for your posts or in real money? Been paid lately? You know that they can't afford to pay your army so you will be waiting a long, long time for your Kopeks.
    2
  726.  @КостюковЮрий  The Serbs made their own beds. Their neighbours cannot tolerate their genocidal tendencies (nor can the World tolerate Russia's any longer). My country (Canada ... a NATO member) was part of the UN Peacekeeping deployment to Bosnia. They fought an intense little battle against the Croat army at the Medak Pocket to protect 1000 Serb civilians from being murdered. You wouldn't know things like that. Russians are not allowed to know things like that by their government.
    2
  727. NATO doesn't car bomb anyone. You are clueless.

  728.  @jonthinks6238  They are barbarians.

  729. ... a lying Russian official? NO, NO NO! That cannot be!

  730. He has the newest Sputnik Brand flip phone and the Sim card is a punch card.

  731. It should have, should it? How do you know that? Sources, please.
    2
  732.  @adissabovic  You figure that Humpty Dumpty egg can be put back together? The World was shocked at the vindictive hatred all of the former Yugoslav ethnic groups had for each other. Tito must have been really good at what he did.
    2
  733.  @adissabovic  The last time our army (Canada) was in Yugoslavia, they fought a battle against the Croat army to prevent them from slaughtering a thousand unarmed Serb civilians.
    2
  734.  @adissabovic  Serbia included.
    2
  735.  @johnjames2470  You believe what's "seven miles"?
    2
  736. More conscripted aboriginal people from the hinterlands of the North. No doubt, they're badass after their two months of training.
    2
  737. No, no. Not Ukraine. Is stray cigarette. Keep moving. Keep moving. Nothing to see here, da?
    2
  738. Actually, you've just described the Russian Federation to the letter.
    2
  739. Canada is another land giant with similar riches that earns a living in the same way that the Russians do. The average Canadian controls 4 times the wealth of an average Russian. An average Canadian man lives 16 years longer than the average Russian male. Canada's economy is larger than Russia's despite having 1/4 of Russia's population. Russia is a poor, unhealthy place and there is no one else to blame for that situation but the Russian people themselves.
    2
  740. Notice the company of infantry accompanying each tank in the video? The Russian army has forgotten how to do that.
    2
  741. NATO doesn't have to "divvy up" anything from that part of the World. It's not that special.
    2
  742.  @parrotsarnoso1099  ... except their lining up half complete because the Russians can't get chips. Anyway, two a day is a joke. "Ladas" yeah, right. Russian industry is awesome. I guess they Nicaragua had better give them back fast.
    2
  743. Why aren't they "MOOING" as they walk towards the slaughter house?
    2
  744. Nitrogen fertilizers are used in agriculture and explosives.
    2
  745. He failed to invade Ukraine from Belarus.
    2
  746. Today's nuke warning from Russia ..... Notice how the Americans, British and French never threaten the Russians with nuclear attack? I guess if you're losing a war, you'll say crazy things.
    2
  747. Sure! Trump will even send military support to Russia lest that blackmail video about him gets released by Putin.
    2
  748.  @0rcsrnazis  No, the "fatherland" is traditionally Germany. "Mother Russia" is how the Russians see their Empire.

  753. I will. Never heard of them.

  756. How long does it take to teach mobilized conscripts how to goose step? Are there enough Regulars left to fill Red Square, anymore?
    1
  757.  @Rob-vv5yn  The Ujraninoians are far better at managing the information space. The best that the Russians can do is flood the internet with incompetent trolls

  758.  @Estilikon  ...and?

  764.  @operator9858  ... a vassal of what? If we're occupied by Russians, our daughters would have been raped by them, everything we own would be stolen and shipped back home and our grandparents would be murdered and pushed into shallow graves because they wouldn't tell you where the "Nazis" are. You DO NO T want to be a vassal of the Russians. That is why NATO exists and expands.

  770. Why do Russians have this death wish to want to cease to exist forever?
    1
  771.  @ZionistWorldOrder  Russia does not have the capacity to end civilization, as much as they apparently want to. Civilization, however, has the capacity to end Russia.

  779. Russia occupies about a half of what they did a year ago. Your media tells you great big lies and you are gullible enough to believe them. By the way, there are 30 (oh, sorry Finland just joined) ... 31 NATO countries and they are no more America's "gang" than you are China's gang. NATO hasn't engaged yet. Russia can change that by attacking a NATO country. Feel lucky, Punk?

  785. Oh, the HYPE-HYPE-HYPE of hypersonics. They don't hit ships at hypersonic speeds. Down at sea level, the atmosphere is so dense that they would melt into a ball of white hot goo. Their hypersonic phase occurs way up high in the stratosphere where they announce to the World "I'M HERE!" As they descend, they have to slow down out of necessity.and whatever reaches the ship doesn't have much more kinetic energy than a sub-sonic sea skimmer because they can't go very much faster, there. Lots of hype in hypersonics. The Russians bragged that they were going to conquer the World with them until Patriot batteries shot them down right left and center. It's hard to see the value of them, really except for their propaganda value. A single torpedo is not going to sink a carrier. A coordinated spread of say six x 2000 lbs exploding under the keel might very well sink it. You can do that now, you know. You don't just lob one off in the general direction as if you are on Das Boot. They can be guided, programmed, have AI technology and can be synchronized.
    1
  786.  @geoffroberts1126  It would be an extremely unusual event and I concur that Iran likely can't. I think that multiple heavy torpedo strikes under the keel might do it. I doubt that you could get enough missiles through with enough punch.

  791. The Russian people will string up Putin long before them. They don't like losers. The non-Russian regions that are bearing to brunt of this war with their blood and poverty will force the breakup of the Russian Federation. Cold war, not really. Yugoslavia 2.0? Scary but likely.

  800. With each successive mobilization, the Russian military scrapes deeper and deeper into the sludge barrel. Russia has not been able to properly equip the last mobilization and they won't have any new source of gear to do so coming in. Russia's industrial capacity is sickly even when they're not under sanction. A huge untrained alcoholic hobo horde is about to attempt to confront modern Europe next door.

  803. But they already buy them by the thousands from Iran. Why is Russian production going to somehow change the game?

  804. The denazified scoreboard? Russia is shooting their own troops? That doesn't surprise me.

  805. Maybe, the Russian media are showing videos of the smoking crater in Belgorod from yesterday with copy read about the glorious destruction of Ukraine's command in Bakhmut.
    1
  806. The policy of defeating Russia leads Russia to disaster. The Russians are entirely the authors of their own problems. They have been a genocidal menace to all their neighbours for more than a century and the break-up of Russia is now necessary for lasting peace throughout Eurasia.

  815. It's a real puzzle why the Russians don't disperse their ordinance more than they do. Are they really so arrogant that they think they'll never be hit? Laziness, perhaps? poor organization, more like.

  834. It's amazing how a determined Soviet people of 1945 has degraded into a morass of alcoholics feeling sorry for their victimhood. The end of the Soviet Union has led to a steep decay of Russian culture.

  835.  @daoli817  Your Russian "propaganda history" conveniently forgets the invasion of Ukraine in 2014. I know. You poor, poor Russians are always the victim (even when you're the aggressor). It must be tough to be poor, pathetic you ... always victimized. Your Donetsk "shelling :" bullshit is exactly the excuse that your predecessor Adolf Hitler used when he invaded Poland. Some Polish soldiers fired a few bullets but luckily for the Nazis, they just happened to have 60 divisions on hand, motors running and ready to roll into Poland. Your February invision was pretty much identical. I understand. You're always victims. Poor, poor Russia. We should be sending you aide.
    1
  836.  @daoli817  The only Nazis in this conflict are Russians. You would be truly embarrassed if you really knew what conditions and attitudes are like in the West. You'd realize how primitive your people are. That's why you are not allowed to know the truth.
    1
  837. The Russians should have glass bottom boats to view the last Russian fleet that the Japanese sent to the bottom. The ultra-modern, creative and high tech Japanese will likely make mince meat out of the incompetent Russians puffing about in their obsolete rust buckets. It's kind of pathetic, really.
    1
  838.  @benjamingrant6159  They will support each other but you are correct, they will operate together. I think that you are using the wrong tense about bringing over other tanks. That process has been going on for some time now. They aren't going to suddenly "show up" all at once, all in the same place. The Abrams is more than a year off. Not part of this battle, if any battle. Good P.R., though. The Americans can claim victory if one of them shows up.
    1
  839.  @benjamingrant6159  An d that makes the Bradley so super-duper top secret that all hell is going to break loose if the Russians get hold of one? Really?
    1
  840.  @JethroBodineWhooWee69  They had better not send anything, then. There is no way they can maintain that much control over a battlefield. That is likely why the Abrarms are not going to Ukraine until the fighting is over, though. The Bradleys are pretty old by now. HIMARS, btw, is obsolete and being phased out by US forces.

  852. The Russian threat to give nuclear weapons to Iran was probably enough to tip their support in favour of Ukraine (despite the huge Russian diaspora in Israel). The Sunni Arab countries will be none too happy about an Iranian Shiite bomb, either. The Russians create their enemy wherever they stumble in to.
    1
  853. Now there's a surprise. The Geneva Convention is meaningless to the Russians. The Russian Federation is not a signatory to the Convention.

  861. Stolen from somewhere in North America, put in a container minutes later and shipped to Russia. That's where the Russians get their good cars from. They can't make them and they can't afford to buy them and stealing is such a natural part of their culture.

    1
  864.  @TheRealBillBob  Well, You don't know what NATO is and cheap propaganda won't help you. NATO is a 32 country defensive alliance, not some thing that lurches around the landscape like Baba Yaga's hut making war. NATO is not yet engaged but if you want it to actually go to war with Russia, all you have to do is attack a NATO country. Simple. Then you can prove your theory about how mighty Russia is.

  868.  @Alien_isolationist  "The bear" has been fought to a standstill by a much smaller force from a much smaller country. The Russians are a World wide joke. Ukraine is holding their own and the world's "second army" that the Russians convinced themselves that they have turns out to be more like #6 or #7 in the World. That goes along nicely with mighty Russia's #13 economy.

  880.  @neilgale2292  "Not sure. Ukraine ? Nato ?" Why would either of those destroy Ukraine's precious infrastructure? The Russians, on the other hand couldn't give a shit. Killer apes.
    1
  881.  @piotrproszewski3977  That is exactly what they did when they shot down the Malaysian airliner after spending the previous week shooting down Ukrainians transport aircraft daily in the same region. The Russians are the most cowardly people on the planet.
    1
  882.  @neilgale2292  Precisely that.

  886. Those are just the bodies that someone bothered to pick up. They're piling up in tranches on the Front and the little itty-bits left over when armoured vehicles blow up will not fill up a body bag. These guys must be the drunks that froze to death in the rear.
    1
  887. That explains why the Russians have not advanced significantly in a year and a half. They've wasted tens of thousands of lives splattering themselves against the defenses of Bakhmut and Avdiivka for no good reason. The Russians are suckers for killing zones.

  888.  @raymondcyq  "That’s Ukraine" It is , is it? Ukraine was invaded by genocuidal mobnsters who raped, murdered stole from and rounded up and took children away from Ukraine.Ukraine is fighting and dying for their lives. Russians ae fighting and dying because of their promitive culture.

  902. The Russians have used their Black Sea warships as platforms to launch cruise missile attacks on Ukraine. They are slowly being depleted.
    1
  903. "Russia warns that arming Ukraine with F-16s may lead to nuclear war" Well, I guess that the Russians can withdraw from their invasion of another country and bring us all back from the nuclear abyss. They can show us what peace makers they are.

  904.  @moemoo11  Russians aren't rich enough to buy their own cars, that's for sure. For decades, gangs in Canada have been stealing high end cars here, driving them into containers and shipping them straight to Russia. See any nice BMWs, Mercedes, Lexus on your streets? Someone with money bought them, not some piss-poor thieving Russian.
    1
  905.  @moemoo11  The poorest and most pathetic of Russian peasants from the interior are mobilized into their army. The better off Russians from Moscow and St. Petersburg are left out of the mobilization for the most part so that rebellion doesn't start there.

  910. Kremlin instructed to mobilize 300,000 troops for new offensive ... just as soon as they can dry them all out. We'll call this one the "DTs" mobilization.
    1
  911. War with each other is a distinct possibility. A big part of Eurasia was stolen from China by Russia in the mid 19th century. It must be obvious to China that this is the optimum time to take it back when Russia is deeply engaged in a static war that is depleting her military more than at any other period in modern times.
    1
  912. Russia may be facing problems with training of middle-level military officers because they need middle-level military officers to train more middle-level military officers and they are mostly dead ... wasted in a pointless invasion of a country that will never allow them to succeeds.
    1
  913. "Western Media" ... so, the media of Japan, Canada, Singapore, Australia, US, Germany, South Korea, France, Sweden, UK, Norway, Holland, New Zealand, Denmark, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Finland, Iceland, Spain, Portugal, Israel, Poland all write the same thing? It's probably true then as the press is free in everyone of those countries to write whatever they choose, short of inciting violence.

  914. Sure. A village with zero strategic value finally fell after months of assaults. Russian military strategy: "Attack the hard points in the line because it's the macho thing to do".

  915. It sure tells you how utterly incompetent the Russian military is.

  916. Ukraine wasn't prepared for a war of any magnitude. The Russian invasion was pretty much out of the blue. They had a few weeks at best.

  928.  @OXY187  So, you think that NATO is a "thing" with a Commisar at it's head barking out orders and "deploying military"? It's an alliance of 32 countries, not an army. Some of those countries are deciding that if Russia is not defeated, they will be in trouble themselves from them. Hahaha
    1
  929. Do they pay you in rubles or in real money? Been paid lately? Russia can't afford to pay their soldiers so they won't be able to pay their Internet tolls, either. Better get out of Russia fast before you end up dying in a trench in Donbass.

  931. I can see a natural alliance there with Russia hooking up with Iran, the Shiite superpower in the Middle East that directly threatens the Sunnis in proxy conflicts all over the Middle East. The Russian threat to equip Iran with nuclear weapons must have set off serious alarm bells in Jeddah.

  936. One wouldn't expect a skimpy salient like that to be sustainable so the raiders probably drove home to Ukraine and were not "liquidated". They did however achieve a stunning victory and now tens of thousands of Russian troops will be diverted to her thinly defended borders away from the real battlefield for good. It is already stunning victory.

  984.  @lobsters12111  Actually, I'm a native English speaker myself. How about you? As far as your "NATO spec." goes ... when I served in our Armed Forces back in the 1970s, the NATO spec. for small arms ammunition was 7.62 mm. Our forces used it in a variant of the Belgian FN rifle as did all the other NATO members except one. The Americans, embroiled in the jungles of Southeast Asia at the time were using 5.56 mm ammunition ... not NATO spec.

This is an arbitrary claim by the US in contravention of current law and custom. It's also going to backfire on the US as they have no means of enforcing THEIR claim that they can come and go as they please. They are also inviting Russians, Chinese, North Koreans ... anyone to sail into the interior of North America to do what they please because the US has some long term goal (apparently) of annexing tie Canadian Arctic. Oh, by the way, neither the US nor UK are signatory to the International Criminal Court either so don't give me that crap about their "noble" enforcement of International law. They observe what meets their needs and no more.

  1048.  @НинаХаванова  The Ukranian counter-offensive failed because the Russian army had the time to dig in and build Frst Worrld War style fortifications along static lines. ( just like the Kaiser's Germans did) Your dictator Putin decided that he was happy to occupy what the Russian army had already managed to capture and simply wrote off his ambition to occupy all of Ukraine. The defenses are tough to breech but the Russian soldiers manning them are now third rate conscripts that are incapable of offensive action without dying like vermin by the tens of thousaands. You are mighty.

If a real hybrid war against the imagined coalition did occur, Russia wouldn't last long. Want to try it out, Russia?

KHERSON! and then they attacked (and routed the Russians) in the Northeast. Then as the Russians rushed to reinforce Donbass retreating from Kherson, the Ukrainians filled the void. I'd wait to see what is going to happen when the ground is dry and solid enough to move. It's been months since that was the case.

  1316. They're reduced to third rate (third mobilization wave) conscripts consisting of the less healthy, older, bums and alcoholic hobos from all of the Asian territories of the Russian Federation as far away from Moscow as possible. Whatever passed for a "professional army" there is dead, already leaving the dregs that didn't have the means or ambition to escape Russia.

  1320. ​ @dnik1260  What you blame in the USA is ten times the economic activity and a railroad network that carries more traffic in a year than third world Russia does in a decade.

  1323. The German army did not have smart munitions. Infantrymen with MANPATS now wipe out tank advances like the ones at Kursk. There are few artillery "barrages" being used by the Ukrainians. They have limited resources available and have to carefully target every round. Ukraine has zero bombers. Unless a bomber carries munitions that can accurately hit a target, they are a waste of time and resources.

  1328. During WWI, it made good strategic sense to withdraw allied troops from The Ypres Salient and turn Ypres over to the Germans. The Belgians would have none of that as almost their whole country was occupied except for that little corner. Ypres was kept free for the whole war although the Salient became one of the deadliest killing grounds in the planet's history. In the end, it really did matter.

  1339. They've destroyed four times the number of HIMARS launchers than have been delivered to Ukraine. The troubling part is that the Russian population cannot think critically, dare not think critically and it will be further evidence to them that they are on the cusp of glorious victory. Truth is, Storm Shadow has to be air launched from heavy fighters which are quite rare in Ukraine.

  1342. Piss-poor Russia isn't going to be rolling out a lot of anything. Besides, the central focus of many of the NATO navies over the last 3/4 of a century is locating Russian submarines for destruction if necessary. It is entirely possible that each and every Russian submarine (especially the noisy nuclear ones) are tracked from the moment they slip their jetties. [see: SOSUS]

  1347. They don't really grasp that there is war on because they've hardly been touched by it. If all your information comes from Russian TV, you'd think that victory is at hand and the Nazis have been defeated. Most soldiers don't come from Moscow so they wouldn't know about the death rate. A little reminder now and then that Putin is not quite so omnipotent is not a bad idea.
    1
  1348. Yes, they will. The Russian army will be defeated. Then, they will rebel and string up Putin leading to the dissolution of the Russian Federation and the Russian people will be freed from their oppressors. It's a win-win all around.
    1
  1349. Long defensive lines like this have a dismal history of success. The Russians would have been better off using the resources they've just wasted on a defensive line that will likely be driven around (like the Maginot line was) and training, feeding and equipping their soldiers to be fighters rather than canon fodder.
    1
  1350. There are 955 million citizens of NATO countries (Russia has 142 million) and if there were a protracted conflict, the call ups would be in the several millions. 3.5 are ready, more or less immediately. You just have to get them all there but they will if they have to. The Russian trolls have no idea what they are trying to summon up because this information has been kept from them.

    1
  1356.  @dudkadudkovich2634  Russia has been poor and underproductive since the days of the Tzars. Did you know that Soviet agriculture was so poor that Canada had to ship millions of tonnes of wheat and other grains to Russia in the 19560s and 70s? Pathetic losers. What a dump. The best thing that can happen n the World tight now is for Russia to split itself up so that they no longer have the power to steal from everyone else around them.

  1360.  @RandomGuy9  Rheinmetall has a plant in Canada. Why not there? The tooling should not be difficult.

  1361. Apparently, those 35mm rounds come from Switzerland and the Swiss are not allowing their gear to go to Ukraine so they have to be extremely cautions and judicious with the rounds that they fire because they can't easily get more ammunition.
    1
  1362. Moving nuclear weapons into a country that doesn't like Putin closer to the reach of Ukrainian special forces troops might be the God-send breakthrough that Ukraine need right now. That is assuming the nukes really work and they're not just duds taken from the warehouse shelf for propaganda reasons.

  1378.  @gorancorbolokovic1732  I don't buy that. Defenders always have the numeric advantage and besides, the assaulting Russians use 19th century human wave tactics because they have yet to master combined arms operations. Their doctrine is literally a century out of date so I would say that your claims are pure, unadulterated, 100% cow shit.

There is a whole host of delivery vehicles for nuclear weapons that are not vulnerable to fighter interceptors ... like those over-hyped hypersonics, fo one. There are lots of reasons to give Ukraine fighters but intercepting nuclear bombers is a really lame one. Give it up. The Russian Fleet should be called the Rusting Fleet.

  1411. The surface vessels will be VERY afraid of the ice and will likely stick to the Russian shores. The North American and Greenland Arctic will be inaccessible to all of them because of the ice Those subs are tracked from the moment they leave the barn in Murmansk by the networks of listening devices and overflights by NATO patrol aircraft, so they will have few if any secrets.

    1
  1421. They're going to withdraw from everywhere and concentrate all their forces in Bakhmut. That's because the Russian General Staff does exactly what Putin tells them to do, lest they go flying out of 12th story windows.

  1422.  @valturesnake5303  Not in your wildest dreams is Ukraine in Russia. Now, you may see parts of Russia being annexed by Ukraine. If you piss off NATO enough, you may see Konigsburg returned to the Europeans, as well. China wants Siberia back, too. Say goodbye to the Russian Federation.
    1
  1423. In order for there to be a "world war" Russia would have to assemble a vast, powerful coalition against the various Western alliances. Russia does not have many friends. They have no powerful ones and Russia itself is weak and spent. China wants Eastern Eurasia back and will likely invade Russia, themselves. Iran, Russia and North Korea ain't much of an alliance. Good luck, Vlad. You can't even beat Ukraine.

    1
  1427. Yeah ... the prosperous rich and progressive EU is being taught something by the primitive killer apes from Moscow? No they're not.Oh. Wait a minute! They did learn to not trust Russia as a trading partner anymore when the Russians tried to blackmail them all by cutting off the gas. Now it's not a problem. The gas is cut off. Europe gets it from somewhere else and the Russians don't have thee infrastructure to ship gas in any other direction so, "no sale", Wipe your bums with rubles for the next two decades.

  1428. You don't just "whip up" 30 new vessels this year. Unless they are already in the water and they've been working on them since late last year IN THE WATER they won't be ready for this year. It takes a couple of years to put together a Frigate. Besides, piss poor Russia can't afford to build 30 ships in a year (while their army is being decimated) and they can't get the tech to outfit them in a 21st century manner, anyway.

  1431.  @ДжалолМашарипов-я6ь  So, when did that work? The Ukrainians are blowing up Russian tanks with cages by dropping $20 grenades from $300 drones. Russian know-how ... brought the World the Lada (with Italian assistance!)
    1
  1432.  @TheB1nary  I don't know why you aren't seeing the videos, drone footage, satellite images of the ten Russian losses over the ls dozen days They are definitely not "repeat" images. I suppose that every mediated image is suspect and you could therefore honestly draw the conclusion that there is no Orwellian war going on at all if you extend it that far. Thanks for being resistant. Sometimes, black is black, not just a shade of grey.

  1433. Right. Russian "superweapons" Remember the HYPE! HYPE! HYPE! of hypersonics and how the "West" (all 1 1/2 Billion spread arond the globe) are going to be brought to their KNEES with hypersonic missiles and they'll all beg for MERCY from Mother Russia.

  1442. The Russian military has become so depleted and weakened that maybe the Kazakhs will win in the South as the Ukranians win in the West. Hey, China! Great time to take back Siberia!
    1
  1443. This is really interesting if the Russian army is so depleted that they can't even push back an incursion like this one. If that's true, a Ukrainian offensive will be like kicking in a rotten door.
    1
  1444. Do the Russians even have the tools for this sort of precision artillery sniping? They likely don't have the doctrine.
    1
  1445. What was presented as Russian "special Forces" turned out the be not so special, after all but just average troops. The only Russian soldiers with punch were mercenaries and they have dropped like flies during futile 1914 style offensives. The surviving conscript army is substandard.

  1470. 2022 ... the year of the invasion of the Russian Ape-Men.

  1473. You have to be careful about how you treat surrendering soldiers. You have to repatriate them under the Geneva Convention, even if conditions at home are hellish. This came up after WWII when German POWs in Canada and the United States wanted to stay there but the Geneva Convention said they had to go back to Germany. Many thousands returned ASAP to both countries but not before experiencing "broken Germany".

  1508. The entire Russian military machine is greatly debilitated after being beat up and slaughtered by the Ukrainian army. The "ten feet tall" Russian army is now 5 foot, two. The professional army is gone. The legacy Soviet gear is being used up rapidly. The Russian economy is going to be winding down significantly over the next couple of year as they can't afford this war. You are outlining a Russian fantasy, not a possible future.

  1522.  @DJ-bh1ju  I was a participant in the Cold War having served in a NATO military in the 1970s, child. NATO didn't "pressure" any opponent. NATO came together into to the current mutually protective alliance to stop the relentless AND FREQUENTLY STATED Soviet objective of conquering the World and spreading their revolution everywhere to the whole human race. I'd say that you are the one with a warped view, Junior.

  1524.  @TapiKoks  NATO cannot go and conquer land. It's not that sort of organization. Besides, why does NATO need more land? It's bigger in area than Russia, far more powerful, more populace, vastly richer and far more advanced in every measurable way. Russi is a sick and dying dinosaur and no one would want to take on caring for their miserable population after they collapse.

  1526. NATO doesn't "react" unless attacked. Almost a year into this war and the idiot Russian trolls still see NATO through Russian eyes as being a single entity with a great Commissar at it's head barking out orders. It is a defensive alliance of thirty nations ... many of whom previously lived under Russian repression. The Poles lost millions to the Russian occupation in 1939.

(btw, You know that three (3) of the NATO countries have their own independent nuclear forces that they keep up-to-date with the investment of major money each year as opposed to the rusty Russian crap that hasn't been maintained for decades because the money allocated to do so ended up in Swiss bank accounts?)

  1554. The Russians are the ones making the threats. The Russians are the ones that invaded Ukraine and started this war. The Russians threaten others who will not let them erase the Ukrainian people. The Russians believe they "own" Ukraine and the Ukrainian people and they can do what they want with them, even kill them all Stopping the Russians means you must be nuked.

  1558. "The West" is an entire advanced civilization that spans the globe. Russia is going to be at war with THAT forever? Russia is neither big enough nor rich enough to do anything like that and it leaves Russia and her people on "the outside looking in".

  1559. "Defender of the Homeland" ... yeah, right. Invading other countries on of the whim of a dictator is "defending the homeland". I suppose that it eventually becomes that when you lose.

  1560. Ahh, I see. The Russians have to move tactical nukes to Belarus in order to make "preemptive strikes" against unspecified Western targets. Why is that? No reliable nukes left in Russia? They've committed all the working ones to this bit of theatre.

  1572.  @JL-tm3rc  Okay. All that has to happen is for the Russian soldiers to get back into their vehicles and drive back home into Russia. The war ends in one day. Russia can go back to selling gas to the Europeans and generating hard currency income, again. If Russia prolongs the war by not withdrawing, the Europeans will have to maintain their boycott siege on Russian resources or risk having to face the Russian army at their own borders. Currently, Russia is selling petro products to China and India "at cost" just to keep their companies going.
