Mediazona and BBC News Russian, together with a group of volunteers, have confirmed the deaths of 14,093 Russian servicemen killed in the Ukraine war before February 12. They arrived at this total using only public records and other open sources.

Compare that to more than 150,000 dead on the Ukrainian side.

“Thanks. Most likely I will watch it this weekend. I just read the Wikipedia on it.”

Cool. The scene that I remember was when the ‘Emperor’ realized that his guards no longer had guns. He still hadn’t figure out that he was only there to keep his (Chinese) people calm, and that Japan was running things.

[Back in the day I just walked over to the German BND compound, no one was around so I just walked in and played with their tiny Radio Shack pocket tape recorders and left a note on a note pad “Merry Christmas from Det 4”. If they had seen the inside of our compound their heads would have exploded.]


Was this some kind of shared facility, i.e. you were in the same building, that you could waltz in and check out their gear?

Putin has not been the worst leader of Russia in the last 100 years.

Toppling Putin may not lead to a better world.

Be careful what you wish for.

So says the guy that consistently repeats Biden regime propaganda about this war. Neocons like Dennisaw and the Biden regime are one on this war.

And, when this is all over and Russia keeps all of the territory is has annexed, you're going to need a new ID here. Those of us that have been calling out your lies aren't going to forget them. I intend on rubbing your nose between a pair Biden's adult diapers when this is all over.

All of you bickering about these two worthless countries make me sick. All of you go away. We have no interests in any of this.

So how does a man in Germany know where American supplied Himars system are located... they shoot and they scoot, as do all artillery systems that want to stay alive.

Russia may be able to figure out how American military equipment sends its own location data... simply because someone is now telling the world that locational data exists. Duh.

For that matter, one may now assume that many or all ground equipment systems send their locational data.

So implies the BND.

Additional background about this case and other cases in Europe:

The pace of arrests and exposures has been driven in part by increased cooperation among European services, officials said, as well as a post-Ukraine shift in mind-set in countries, including Germany, long criticized by some of their European neighbors as too complacent about the threat from Moscow.
“February of 2023 is not the same as February of 2021 or 2019,” said a senior Western intelligence official. After’s Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, “there just isn’t as much tolerance or as much space” in Europe.

Senior officials described whack-a-mole-like efforts to keep Russian services from restocking European embassies with spies. In a speech last year, Ken McCallum, director of Britain’s MI5 domestic service, said the British government had “refused on national security grounds over 100 Russian diplomatic visa applications” since 2018, when Britain expelled 23 suspected Russian spies in retaliation for the poisoning of a defector in Salisbury, England.

As a result of such pressure, Western officials said they have also seen signs that Russia’s intelligence services are making decisions they would have avoided in the past — making operatives more vulnerable to detection. “Our work has revealed Russian agencies raising their risk tolerances,” said the senior FBI counterintelligence official, though he declined to provide specifics. In some cases, he said, “their actions to me show desperation.”

This is what the favorite pedophile of these peaceniks says.

Doesn't stop him from attending "peace" conferences with Code Pink.
