—” Crimean Tatar who was protesting who got dragged away and was found later with a knife through his eye socket and into his brain, with other signs of torture.”

They are simply continuing the work of Putin’s idol from 1944, to cleanse the peninsula’s remaining Tatar population.

Served in the Red army? So what get in the boxcar...

This is the way. Get in behind the lines, blow stuff up where Russians are fat and happy and comfortable. Bring the war closer to their homes. Then we’ll see if they have the stomach to keep up their “special military operation” for years and years to come.

Kazan is the name of a city in RuZZia.

Is that where you live?

Dirty RuZZian.

Another Victory for Brave Ukraine against the evil sub human Russian monsters! They have Lost! The war is over now. Russian troops will revolt, shoot their officers, and join the Freedom Movement to Liberate the World from Soviet Communism. All Ukraine needs is another five Hundred Billion US dollars to stop evil, vile Putin from his plan to depopulate Hero Ukraine. If the money (less 10% for the big Guy) comes it can be over in two weeks! Everyday a new Victory for Freedom and Democracy! Just Read the Daily Mail!

SpecOps raid seems likely.

It seems to me that there were guys on the ground planting charges (maybe also firing some short range weapons).

No one seems to report any missiles being seen, or detected by air defense or satellite (which does necessarily not rule out missiles - maybe a complex attack combining modes).

There are however multiple reports of multiple explosions (like a dozen or more) in rapid succession. One explanation is charges set to go off at the same time (3:30 PM local time).

Maybe they drove down the flight line, quickly sticking demolition charges onto the aircraft, while they later, or another team, planted charges at the munitions storage area, and maybe fuel storage.

If it was me, I would be writing up those operators for some big awards. They can talk trash about this raid until their dying day. Well earned. Bravo!

The video clips that I saw indicate that big fires were burning before the two big mushroom cloud explosions took place, also indicating more than just two explosions.

I note that among the few items listed on the new billion dollar aid package, was C-4 explosives - ideal for such man portable demolition charges. Maybe we will be seeing a lot more of such explosions in the Russian rear.

Insert blasting cap (carefully), and use the old twist detonator at the other end of the wire if you like

Cut to fit, to make innocuous looking things explosive - its why they call it plastic explosive.

Duct tape it anywhere in a flash!. Add your favorite electronic detonator for time delay, or on command detonation from a distance, with no wires.

Perhaps this will be a characteristic of the next phase of the war.

Partisan resistance rise up!

Wolverines!

have you noticed that the Poles are quietly, with the conivance of the Zelensky regime, positioning themselves to reacquire Galicia
———-
Non western sources have mentioned a Polish 20,000 man Polish “Peacekeeping” force that has been assembled, for post war deployment to the old Polish territory in Ukieland. Of course, all the war cheerleaders sneered at my bit of reality, let the carving up of Ukraine begin….

In the approved Operations Plan, Polish Peacekeepers are to be along the Russian border in Luhansk and Donetsk. Germans and Italians will be out West.

Even if that wild claim were true, it doesn’t threaten America, Ukraine doesn’t threaten America, NATO ally and home of the United States V Corps Headquarters and American troops, Poland, doesn’t threaten America. Russia threatens America.

Poland owning all of Ukraine doesn’t threaten America, Ukraine owning all of Ukraine doesn’t threaten America, Russia and its attempts to rebuild as much as they can of their Evil Empire, threatens America.

How? When? Where? Russia Derangement Syndrome has fully infected the US as has Trump Derangement Syndrome. No difference between the two, in fact, Russia Derangement Syndrome concocted by the Demoncrats falsely ignited the the Trump Derangement Syndrome.

I take it you also bought into senile Joe’s Covid vax hoax? ( Covid Derangement Syndrome).

Nor will they give up the Ethnic Russian areas, Eastern Provinces and Odessa when/if they decide to take it…..and there is nothing the West can do about it.

Vegetable head Joe has insured that, and Vlad keeps saying checkmate, again and again.

Ukraine no longer claiming missile attack

US claims same

Sabotage or careless ammo storage practices or some combo

Populations that vote against US agendas…seldom have “ legitimate” elections, do they?

You think 125% voter turnout is on the up and up? Russkies were even bussing in trucks, in the wide open, with ballots. They aren't exactly the most sophisticated bunch, but they're sophisticated enough for idiots like you to presume an Illuminati conspiracy behind it.

This reminds me of CCP bots on the internet saying "there is nothing the US can do to take Taiwan away from China!" But looks like we can do plenty. The Russkies have already depopulated Donetsk by forcing every grown man up to the age of 60 to join the military, arming them with shitty WW2 weapons. They are dying by the thousands right now.

Russian deragenemnt-- which is also now becoming Russian/Chinese derangement-- is a good derangement to have. Conservative researches like Jeff Nyquist, Cliff Kinkaid, and many others have been writing/reporting on Russia and China for a long time.

Then you assholes come along and instead of doing any research, you just take Russian/Chinese propaganda at face value because it's the opposite position of what the Democrats seem to be doing.

Pure tribalist BS and retardation on display.
