Didn’t the Russians run out of ammo about 80 days ago?

They have fought honorably and bravely against the savages but they are out gunned and out manned.

It’s about time for Z-man to flee to one of his mansions and negotiate peace via Zoom.

“If the Russians win this thing they might compel the Ukes to expose a lot of the Biden corruption.

As long as the Ukes are still fighting the Biden corruption can remain under wraps”.

Good point.

Ukraine was doomed before we ever got involved.

You need to set the date correctly on your time machine. The photo you posted shows an explosion from 2017.

Here is a 2019 article about another fire which includes the same picture, and its description:

"On the night of March 23, 2017, in the city of Balakleya in the Kharkiv region, there was a powerful explosion at a military base - this is the largest ammunition depot in Ukraine."

Here is the NATO munitions safety analysis of the 2017 event.

You should be more careful re-posting Russian propaganda. A lot of it is just fake.

Russians who began this are war criminals and murderers.

If they are, we are too.

Does this mean we are required now to delete the Ukrainian flag emojis?

Please put up your "I mask for monkeypox" signs instead.

When even the Wash Post is saying things don’t look good for Ukraine, you know the worm is about to turn. The other day retired US General Twitty who was second in command in Europe and is now a member of the Council of Foreign Relations said Ukraine must begin negotiations immediately, that they have absolutely no chance of winning. Even the elites are starting to break ranks and saying it’s all but over.

Some day some one here will get a clue - the ZSU is loosing the artillery war because they have no dedicated artillery drones.

All they have are commercial drones with, at best, a 18km range and loitering time measured in minutes. Operators have to be close to the front line to operate and are often discovered and killed. There is no way for the ZSU to get even close to any long range artillery, unless the Orcs get stupid an bring a battery close to the front.

The Orcs have a dedicated artillery drone the Orlon-10 with a range of 870 miles and loitering time of 16 hours. This drone belongs to the battalion artillery as does all information and no other part of the Battalion can take it away. While artillery batteries of the ZSU have to use ad-hock apps to make a commercial drone function on the battlefield, the Orcs are well practiced and have thousands of the drones in reserve. Each ZSU drone costs are born by the people, not the ZSU.

Ukraine must destroy the oil pipeline Russia is using to supply Europe as it is Putin’s money supply to support his war. The Soros, Obozo, Biden partnership destroyed the American Energy industry and gave Putin his money machine by signing the European Russian pipeline supply agreement. America literally gave Putin money to start and support a war,,,,,,,,,,,

Explain your reasoning.

Hells bells, son, you certainly can’t expect Zelensky to spend the Ukrainian foreign aid funds on drones for his soldiers when he desperately needs to beef up his overseas bank accounts.🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Someone tried just yesterday!

It would collapse the German economy, that’s why the idea of stopping the pipeline is usually dismissed
