Russian officials have said Ukraine launched missile strikes against three gas rigs in the Black Sea south of Odesa, in an apparent escalation of Kyiv’s attempts to weaken Russia’s maritime dominance.
Seven people were missing and three injured after the strikes, according to the head of occupied Crimea, Sergey Aksyonov, who said a “rescue operation with the participation of patrol ships and aviation” was under way.
The three offshore platforms, the Boyko towers, had previously been seized by Moscow from Ukraine in 2014. Kyiv believes they are used for military reconnaissance and to help assert control of a larger portion of the Black Sea.

I guess he wants Ukraine to send the rest of his fleet to the bottom of the Black Sea because of his unbalanced rage.
USA, UK and NATO spy planes have gone dark over the Black Sea tonight in preparation.
Putin is not a smart man.
Putin Stooges worst affected.
Retaliation for yesterday’s Orc destruction of the 3 remaining Ukraine refineries.
Good. The more this causes gasoline and diesel fuel prices to go up the better.
I hope the Arabs cut the delivery of oil to the USA also.
Russia is pumping more oil to Europe than it was before the war
Just as I abhor the Democrats blood dancing on every mass shooting, I abhor the constant cheers of the ignorant as the Usurpers move us closer and closer to nuclear destruction…
Say Texas goes to secession like they are saying and we let them (ok both unlikely..just hear me out). Then Texas starts doing huge business with China, importing Chinese arms, even having members of Xi’s family work there etc... Finally Texas announces it will join a military alliance with China which would include Chinese troops coming there and setting up the most advanced bases. Say this all happens in the next 20 years.
Think we would just sit by? (i mean if a senile idiot like Biden isn’t in charge)
And the Europeans, the UK and the US will fund Putin's Special Operation even harder...
This is what happens when Ursula van der Crazy's high-heeled dog gets off his leash.
OK. I’ll bite. So if Texas were to pull out of the Union because of the useless busybody double crossing coming from DC why would they buddy up with China just to get themselves Hong Konged? And remember Sam Houston didn’t much like Mexicans either. I expect if the Texans secede they would stay “seceded.”
Exactly, another example of brilliant Neocon war strategy.
This will move the Ukrainians further away from their phony objective of exporting grain by sea, through the waters they mined.
Me too.
This country needs to go through extreme hardship.
Lets see how these people like it when they cant afford anything and have to give up all their fake stuff.
Texas would be the first step. After that most of the middle country would split away and all that would be left would be the west coast and the north east and possibly Ill and MN.
“possibly Ill and MN.”
Fully 2/3 of Illinois would join Texas. Basically almost everything south of I-80.

I heard you out, and my response is: This is a ludicrously outlandish scenario that might make an interesting plot for a science-fiction novel, but has no place in serious political discourse.
Go back to your super-intelligent dinosaurs who are secretly controlling world politics!
Regards,
ukraine needs to start taking out Russian oil refineries IN RUSSIA.
Please concentrate on Texas. It’s becoming a mess
I’m saying Russia has close historical ties with Ukraine as we do with Texas. So them invading Ukraine is not necessarily a threat to NATO or the rest of the world.
As far as my comparing it is equal to intelligent dinosaurs controlling politics?? Wow…isnt that a Q thing? (you apparently know more about them than I do) You think I’m a Qanon member because I think we should be neutral in the Ukraine? You think staying neutral is equivalent to believing in super smart dinosaurs? LOL
Now that is a stretch of logic. I think you are probably a war-mongering neocon who is most at home with George Bush and invading a new country every year. Do me a favor when we go to war for Ukraine and send your boys and grandsons and leave mine out of it.
No fake regards I will keep it real.
PS apparently you missed this thread…

And almost everything west of 294.
