Russia is running trains full of ammo to feed their MLRS and howitzers.

Anyone want to drive a train, or truck, to deliver ammo to the Uke’s, who happen to be surronded??

Some of the pictures I’ve seen lately of Russian armor shows that they are mounting sheets of metal several feet above the turrets. Does that protect them from the Javelins?

Once China becomes “west Taiwan” perhaps they will give it back to Britain, or allow it to be a free trade zone with the new ROC. And the US would have a naval base there.

The GoogTube channel, TFI Global, has done excellent reporting and analysis of the Ukraine/Russia war.

S&S is not a reliable news source.

Per their FAQ:

WHAT IS STARS AND STRIPES?

Stars and Stripes provides independent news and information to the U.S. military community, including active-duty servicemembers, DoD civilians, veterans, contractors, and their families. Stars and Stripes retains its editorial independence and is congressionally mandated to be governed by First Amendment principles, but it is part of the Pentagon’s Defense Media Activity. The Pentagon funding that makes up roughly half of Stars and Stripes’ annual budget is primarily used to print and distribute the newspaper to troops scattered across the globe, including in warzones such as Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria. The remainder of the news organization's funding comes from advertising and subscriptions.

Interesting, for you to allege that a news source publicly funded by the Pentagon is publishing Russian propaganda.

There is nothing saying that S&S does NOT push propaganda Orc or CCP. Since both agencies have worldwide campaigns many ‘news’ outlets are going to publish all or some of it.

S&S may be great for posting service news but not much else. Trust it at your own risk.

Good grief, give it up. Your Bullsheet panties are exposed and loaded.

That comment at #106 made me laugh. Such desperation to twist something to fit your narrative.

Anatoly Golitsyn has written that the Soviet Union’s demise was controlled, and there are plans to bring it back.

Why exactly would the political assessment of a KGB operative that defected in 1961 have any special weight regarding political events that occurred over three decades after the fact?

Russia is going to be evicted from Crimea. Count on it, Comrade Chekist.
