Seems like lots of fires in RuZZia.

Shoot at the explosion and then get punched. Someone edgy?

The first 24 posts, a record!
“Modi to Skip Annual Putin Summit Over Ukraine Nuke Threats”
“Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi won’t be holding an annual in-person summit with Vladimir Putin after the Russian president threatened to use nuclear weapons in the war in Ukraine, according to people with knowledge of the matter.”
You are welcome!
In videos of the large Mega Khimki shopping center fire, there are obviously big explosions happening. Should there be explosives or flammables stored in a shopping center? Seems unlikely.
I wonder if some Ukrainians are responsible for so many fires across RuZZia?
One observes that there are sometimes only about fifteen seconds between posts, suggesting preparation, and then cut-and-paste-and post and repeat. This rather than consolidating them into a few longer posts with many URLs as sources. Almost as if this was a "shop." Interesting, as I look in sometimes merely to observe the behavior itself. This follows the behavior of spammers.
Still, in spite of the pro-Zelensky types and their pro-Putin opponents, I'll stick with "not my circus and not my clowns."
Moreover, as this thing is nowhere near its conclusion, no one can predict the outcome. No one. It's probably not even half-time in the game, even though the cheerleaders have rushed on to the field.
I put the blame on Putin.
He started the damn war and can end it by withdrawing.
The videos show some large secondary explosions.
I guess that it is no big loss as all of the consumer electronics & washing machines don't work anyway...they are chipless.
I’ve stated from the beginning, this is a European issue.
[But the rest of the world is seeing]
The UkroNazis are not hiding their feelings anymore. By far the most popular "morale patch" is the SS Totenkopf. You can see 100s of these on Instagram, proudly posted. This is just a quick montage I jammed together on Paint.
“Lost In Lies: Keeping Track Of Russian Propaganda Claims”
“Thanks to years of exaggerating Russia’s superpower status, the Russian people have come to expect capabilities that the Russian Armed Forces can impossibly deliver on. As a direct consequence, the Russian MoD is stuck between a rock and a hard place, with a nation that expects it to swiftly deal with systems like the HIMARS, and an army that simply lacks the capabilities to locate, track and destroy said systems. To hide its own failures, the Russian MoD has to make up or at least significantly inflate Ukrainian losses to reassure its domestic audience. “
“20 HIMARS claimed to have been destroyed or captured by Russia’s Ministry of Defence as of October 1, 2022. Only 16 HIMARS have been delivered to Ukraine as of the making of these claims. There is no visual evidence that supports the loss of any HIMARS.”
“1000 claimed to have been destroyed by Russian State TV as of June 30th, 2022. [22] Baykar Tech, the producer of the TB2, has never made more than 450 TB2s. Visual evidence at that time supported the destruction of nine TB2s. A total of fourteen TB2s are currently visually confirmed to have been destroyed”

It is an interesting thing that "European" as a descriptor of location may be used for most of the "seminal" political writings of Marx (who wrote in the UK and is buried in Highgate), Hitler, Mussolini and Gentile, the Frankfurt School (which then migrated to the US), and when one additionally considers the or US Founding Fathers and seminal Declaration of Independence was "American," the notion of "a European issue" is a thought-provoking argument about a geographic influence on thinking.
Added to this is the notion of the current European Commission, unanswerable to the European electorate, is becoming all the more authoritarian, it becomes more a "European" event through them as well.
Certainly many wars make up the history of Europe, and when one considers "wars won post WWII," there are many, though there have been many cut-and-run, courtesy of a somewhat modern "American" thought process in which "winning" has not been evident as an outcome, while massive debt is.
Perhaps it is our time to return to that kind of thought which was able once to say, "When in the Course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent Respect to the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the Separation. We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness—That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."
Such sentiment was definitively not European when written....
Democrats call us Nazis all the time. Called Trump a Nazi also.
Who cares?
Ukrainians can wear any patch they want, as long as they kill the invaders.
Yeah when everyone is a nazi, no one is a nazi.
According to Dennis, Wagner troops may capture the eastern side Bakhmut, but are unlikely and do not have the resources to take the western half this winter.
However, the UA troops really need the full shipment of German Leopard 2 tanks to make that happen. There are supposed to be 200 brand new Orc tanks in the area.
The calico kitty was actually instrumental in locating the drone that was taken. Pat on the head as a reward and on to the next Russian birdie.
