We got two Ukraine-related docs
Politico ^ | October 14, 2022 | ALEXANDER WARD and PAUL MCLEARY

Posted on 10/15/2022 4:31:18 AM PDT by Timber Rattler

POLITICO’s National Security Daily has procured two telling documents on the Ukraine war: a list of Ukraine’s latest weapons requests circulating in Washington, D.C., and a slide deck used at today’s extraordinary meeting of 30 nations to curb Russia’s military rearmament.

First off, the “priority items” list, obtained Thursday night. Eight months into the war, Ukraine is asking for:

— 300 Main battle tanks
— 1,000 BMP armored personnel carriers
— 30 Multiple Launch Rocket System
— 250 155mm artillery systems
— 500 anti-tank guided missiles
— 1,000 man-portable air-defense systems
— 72 short-range air defense systems
— 20 AN/TPQ-36, AN/TPQ-37 Firefinder radar
— 40 AN/TPQ-48, AN/TPQ-49 light counterfire radar

Ukrainian officials apparently circulated this list among their American counterparts very recently. That said, there are tons of lists flying around town, though we’re reliably told this one is the most current. Neither the National Security Council, State Department nor Pentagon chose to comment.

Meanwhile, U.S. Treasury, Commerce and intelligence officials are discussing with allies how to deprive Russia’s military of crucial weapons and components. NatSec Daily couldn’t link to or publish the slides from the meeting, but can supply details about what they said.

The slide deck, titled “Sanctions and Export Control Eroding Moscow’s War Effort,” notes that Russia has lost “over 6,000 pieces of equipment” since the start of the war. Furthermore, Russia’s forces are “expending munitions at an unsustainable rate,” the deck says, though it doesn’t detail how the U.S. knows that.

Politico is left-wing propaganda.

Meanwhile everyday Americans can’t afford to put gas in their cars to go to the grocery store and pay those inflated prices.That’s if they don’t get shot by some gang drive by shooting or have their car stolen.

Ever noticed how the sources often utilized by the peddlers are the very same sources that if they were not articles about ‘gospel truth’ concerning Ukraine would otherwise be shredded and torn apart by many within FR, but because they are about Ukraine, are just left to stand alone as if they were the gospel truth?

Well Comrade Travis, welcome to my latest post and thread! I do hope that you are feeling better after your wild hysterical panic attack the other night. Surely it was treatable with some Prozac.

In the meantime, sit back, grab some coffee, and enjoy this weekend's coming war news!

Awww...your feelings are still hurt that the forum owner disagreed with you? I’m so very sorry to hear that.

Hey CrankedKazanMarmenPrestonTruckmellowPGR88RinoCathiVikingMariner, sorry about the Kerch Bridge pothole issue.

I know you were contemplating speaking with your ольгинские тролли psyop boss, so you could get some time off to jump the nearest “Draft Bus”, or jump into the back of an OMAN vehicle to get to the nearest draft hut, and to Crimea’s warmer climate as it’s so cold where you are, and so you could “bag & tag” some Ukie’s.

Bummer I know.

Hey cranked, it will be okay.

Already, the large low pressure system which was dumping so much cold rain is past you now, so it should dry out a bit before getting slammed with rain again soon.

And don’t worry, I am confident the Russian hunting season in Ukraine will continue for several more months. So you will have other opportunities to jump on that draft bus, and show those young Russians how to be brave.

Hey cranked, yet AGAIN, about that threat that you had unleashed the “dogs” on me, and then sending me the beautiful music lyrics lettimg me know the end of my days was imminent, I was wondering if you might be a good Putinist psyop Freeper and give me any “heads up” on when I can expect a visit from “the Cleaners”, or “Mercader”, or when “boyz town” svr mafia from Chicago or San Francisco might visit me?

I know we have had them in the US in significant numbers since at least the early 1980’s, and “assisting” certain US leftist politicians with pesky government and civilian investigative types, so logistics shouldn’t be too hard for these guys. Also wondering if you could maybe narrow down the methods they may use.

Again, I am sure they have been busy, but it would be nice to have at least a day or two notice, if you wouldn’t be too much trouble.

Also again, was wondering how you keep such difficult 24/7 shift hours? I have a hard time staying awake for more than 3 days at a time.

I am guessing your ольгинские тролли psyop suite boss must be providing some kind of concentrated caffeine infused 90 + proof vodka, but wasn’t sure. Can you share your
ольгинские тролли psyop teams secret?

Well now, you do seem like such a needy and self-absorbed child, in your compulsive desire to keep appealing to authority figures, even after they decided you were wrong. Please do keep on annoying admin and the forum owner with your mewing.

It is a consorted effort to censor and/or intimidate us into silence.

Might work with others; not happening with me.

Seriously, you have got to be kidding me!

I have known a bunch of Navy Seals, and never in my life met one going into fetal position over something so “micro” in nature...

Not sure whether to laugh at the “frogman”, or notify the Seals.

Unbelievable!

Nothing like I have ever encountered.

And this so-called war is merely the latest money laundering scam.
