Our military should be fine since, apparently, you don’t need much to defeat fake and Potemkin Russia.

Several reporters have gone through Ukraine’s new drone factories and it is impressive how fast they’ve built their own arms industries. They’ve used these drones for many recent attacks against Russian invaders. Even more impressive, they are building these drones out of cardboard and plastic!

Good to see they are being put to good use. The more of Russia’s military gets smashed, the less the surrounding nations will have to live in panic about when the next genocidal conquest will occur from the latest murderous despot in the Kremlin.

Also didn’t believe in Jesus and thought he was a reincarnated soldier from the Punic wars. Everything he said wasn’t gospel. He was good in the attack, but as a person he was a weirdo.

Apparently Putin forgot that a large percentage of the Soviet arms industry was located in Ukraine. Ukraine turned away from militarization in 1994 when they agreed with the USA to relinquish their large nuclear armed intercontinental ballistic missile arsenal, and more than 300 billion dollars worth of conventional weapons.

Now they are back to designing and building weapons. Having them as a US and NATO ally will let the USA cut its spending on the defense of Europe in the future.

A great book on Patton which IMHO is the definitive biography of the man:

https://www.amazon.com/Patton-Genius-War-Carlo-DEste/dp/0060927623

Yes, he was quirky but history is replete with quirky men who bucked the orthodoxies of their times in order win battles and wars.

Crimea Wind Telegram channel is reporting the Commander of Russia’s Black Sea Fleet was killed in today’s strike in Crimea

Meanwhile the occupiers are still struggling to contain the fire at the Naval HQ in Sevastopol

Interesting the smoke turned darker too!

Admiral Victor Sokolov, Commander of the Black Sea fleet had a run in with a Storm Shadow. He did not survive.

“I don’t care about Russia. I just don’t want the US involved.”

That ship sailed in December 2021 when Putin/Ruzzia delivered a series of ultimatums to the US and NATO threatening war if NATO did not cancel the memberships of countries that used to be occupied and enslaved by Russia so Russia could reoccupy and enslave them again.

Russia poked a bear and the bear is poking back.

Pity that.

An entertaining series of videos from Suchomimus.

Watch them in sequence to see how certain facts developed.

“He was storm shadowed in his office while he was having a meeting!”

Share that with your boss the next time he wants to have a meeting instead of just sending an email!

The storm shadow double tap on the commander of the Black Sea fleet in Sevastopol today was a thing of beauty to watch. War criminal was deaded in his office during a meeting with his officers.

The smoke is dark, does that mean they didn’t yet pick a new Admiral to replace the one that got denazified?

Waiting for the white smoke. Maybe Putin will give the job to Scott Ritter or Doug Macgregor.
