A photo of a saint holding a Javelin, an anti-tank missile launcher, in her arms is going viral on social media. As Russia continues to wage war on Ukraine, the photo, being hailed as ‘St Javelin’, has become a symbol of Ukraine’s resistance. Snip Javelin is an anti-tank-guided munition that can be carried and launched by a single person. Designed by the US defence firms in the late 1980s, the Javelin weighs about 50 pounds. Javelin can be fired from the soldier and does not need any millie launcher. According to reports, Ukrainian defence is largely depending on the Javelin to counter the all-out attack of the Russian troops

Another week of this and the Politburo will stab the KGB dwarf with a poison umbrella
The western airforce could end this current situation in a couple of days

After all Russian fighters and SA systems had been destroyed - a highly problematic situation.
That would be the best outcome. And for his mini-me Lukashenko as well.
Thanks for posting the pic. I was in the “help” sandbox trying to figure that out.
It’s interesting that in the attack on Kharkiv last night the Russians relied on light humvee type vehicles.
I wonder if they know that slow moving tanks will get chewed up if they enter the cities.
Kinda like Tony and the boys did with Big P****, except not in a boat down below the waterline.
Maybe in his own office, and let the results spatter where it will.
Obviously a western air campaign would include everything required. Ironically, all the assets required, air to air fighters, wild weasel sam suppressors, tankers, awac and jstar are basically all there as support for A10’s and attack helicopters. Which ultimately are there for the grunts.. All of that COULD happen in a few hours. All of that capability is close by and loaded up...
I’d Jump out of retirement just to fly the Hog again to kill Russian’s.
Maybe he's there!
Everyone in the military knows tanks lose in urban warfare.
They could use a Claire Chennault and the AVG type set up. Certainly, Putin would declare that an act of US aggression even though he has a long track record of using his own mercs for (not so) plausible deniability.
That dude is STILL running around loose out in... the New Jersey pine barrens, IIRC.
The funny part is it was Chechens, not Czechoslovakians.
My wife and I were talking about something the other day and I made a Sopranos reference...
She said OK, we're gonna have to just go back and watch the whole thing again.
Putin will dub just about anything he doesn’t like an “act of US aggression”. He uses that like “that’s racist” like a lib.
Did you read all of his declaration of war closely? It is hard to read the translation but it is a rant of someone fed up with being the weak man in the world compared to what the Soviets once were. Never saw a little man with power that did not have a Napoleon complex. He has lost his marbles this time and acting out his frustration.
The Politburo better take him out if they know what is good for them. He has made himself popular with the people but I wonder how popular he can be when they are locked out of the world?
In a bunker in the Urals. It is a good place to die.
