so ... I should watch this video ...?
ok
I’ll bite ...
back in a few ...
IMO neither blew it up
Dam was hit by shelling off and on weakening it and the very wet spring raised level behind it
There’s satellite photos taken may 28th and June 5 with the More recent one showing new damage
Thanks for posting this. I’m glad Tucker is coming back, and I hope he spawns thousands of copycats.
2.2 million views in less than an hour.
The networks have got to be nervous.
Only 1.4 m views in 42 minutes. Tucker is slacking. /s 😂 🤣 😂 How many people are watching Bret Baer? I bet Tucker has more views this evening than all primetime viewers for FNC, MSNBC and CNN.
So...since the dam was under Soviet control and it’s clear that the dam was properly demolished from the inside are you proposing that a highly skilled team of Ukrainian commandos penetrated lax Soviet security and then had a few hours to set their charges?
Are you SURE you want to give this one to Ukraine? Because if you do then your Soviet friends look awfully incompetent.
ok ... update
the part with linda glam cracked me
Tucker is spanking him....
back to the video .....
Oops, make that 2.3m views
It only makes sense that the Ukes blew it up. One reason Russia started this war in the first place is to secure a land-based link to Crimea (the Mariupol line) and they’re going to end up with it. Ukraine is the only player with a motive to prevent it from happening.
Any you are a civil engineer. 😂 just a Linda Graham lacky.
Shelled by Ukraine using US HIMARS last November.
Diversity of opinion is our strength.
Thank you for posting this.
Go, Tucker!
My status has no bearing on the fact that the Kakhovka Dam was what’s called a ‘barrage dam’ consisting of a solid concrete gravity dam topped by a series of sluice gates. This was a popular style of construction for dams of less than 150 ft from the 1920’s into the 1960’s.
The Nimbus Dam near Sacramento is similar to the Kakhovka Dam. Feel free to check it out.
Destroying the gates would not have undermined the concrete portion of the dam because it’s simply too sturdy. It can be demolished but that’s quite involved.
The Kakhovka Dam was purposefully demolished, the Russians had threatened to demolish last October, and earlier today they were taking credit for having done so and then changed their tune.
In any case the only way a stout concrete dam of this type would be destroyed is with a lot of careful preparation. A mere attack by artillery would not have done this and so far no one has said anything about artillery.
So it had to be done by someone on the ground with access to the dam. That would be Russia...unless they wish to argue that they were unable to secure this key strategic infrastructure and the Ukrainians were able to sneak in and place a few tons of charges in the dam.
Just myself but I’d say the Russians destroyed it just like they had threatened to do last year. And it was a strategically sound decision if they’re buying time to prepare the defense of Crimea.
up date ...
the video is not as long as it may seem by my time stamps , I’v been watching reruns of the circle show ...

.. linda glame got slamed...
Great to hear you, Brother Tucker. Love you!

There have been occasional brief shelling bombardments of, and around, that building, since then.
Lately, the Russians blocked up the flow control ports, and that caused the reservoir water level to climb to its all-time record height.
For now, my guess is, that the force of the water plus damages of the southern area of the dam, led to the dam failing - first, at the south end of a section that is just to the north of the power generation building.
Water level:

“Tucker is delivering...”
Dang and then some! He seems to be unleashed.
The current fascists at FOX hopefully will regret their decision and we will gain from it.
Thank you FOX!!!
