Shocking footage has emerged of the moment a Russian soldier attempted to destroy a Ukrainian missile launcher from close range with dramatic and potentially lethal consequences.
The clip, shared on a pro-Russian channel on social media and messaging app Telegram, shows one of Putin's fighters taking aim at an abandoned Ukrainian S-300 missile launcher sitting mere yards away.
After taking a few moments to compose himself, the soldier squeezes the trigger of his PKM machine gun, presumably expecting to damage the hardware or perhaps set off a minor explosion to render it inoperable.
A split second later the missile launcher erupts into an enormous explosion, sending gouts of flame blasting toward the lone gunman and his comrade holding the camera.

“There is no economic oil in Ukraine” (paraphrase)
Maybe at $40/oil.
Ukraine has Europe’s third-largest shale oil and gas reserves at 1.2 trillion cubic meters (tcm) just with gas.
Historically, it was the gas depot of the Soviet Union. Corrupt companies like Biden’s screwed it up. But it’s there for the taking.

You’ve got bad information - there is a large NG deposit in the west of Ukraine which is what you are confusing with crude oil.
The info that there is lots of oil in the Donbas comes from some early Russian propaganda, not from actual fact.

You are the one limiting the discussion to “oil”.
Oil and gas is what I’ve been saying.
Yes they have more gas. Which is what powers Europe. But they have plenty of economic oil at $100/bbl.

Gas yes, oil no and of very low quality.
Pootie wants to restore the old Kievan Rus’ empire, not get oil or gas.

You mean you don’t like it when someone dehumanizes the Russians the same as you Putin suckers do to the Ukrainians?
Bite me, hypocrite.

I certainly don’t recall dehumanizing Ukrainians like you and your fellow travelers have with the Russians, calling them ‘orcs’ and whatnot. (Not there aren’t Freepers who have engaged in such behavior towards the Ukrainians, and I’ve seen plenty of it from both sides.)
I’ve been fairly consistent in my opinion that this is not America’s fight, that the pro-Ukraine propaganda posted during the initial weeks of the war was particularly distasteful in its seemingly mindless uniformity, and that neither side is all that deserving of our aid. However, that doesn’t mean I have to see the Ukrainians and the Russians as ‘other’.
So you can keep your empty charge of hypocrisy for someone who cares for your moral condemnation.
