This is a Donbass Immersive Experience courtesy of General Armageddon. Hopefully it will bring these quixotic Euro-HoHols to a nice warm negotiating room.

In 2 or 3 days? How much effort do you think Russia would have to make to take out the whole thing if that were really their intention. Fake News never gets by basic logical questions; just like COVID

>>Actually it is raining Iranian drones, for some reason the Russians can’t even build their own drones.

The Russians are apparently providing upgraded guidance and Glonass navigation mods to the Iranian drones.

Maybe not, but apparently they have advanced “tactical-use” nukes.

Iranian drones

Sorry, they can't be Iranian drones. Biden has Iran under severe sanctions and everyone knows building military drones, especially ones this effective, would be impossible.

“Then Ukraine would have been able to wipe out a Russian plant for each Ukrainian one hit.”

Those ATACMs would cease to exist faster than the 2 Ukrainian jet fighters that hit Belgorod where a world record for the range of destruction of 217km was set.

Exactly-it’s all about energy- that’s why it’s target number one for the left. The various Green parties have severely undermined Europe’s stability and competitiveness. The war just stress-tested the EU which is in a death spiral in its carbon handcuffs.

With the $100,000,000,000 we’ve sent Zelensky, he should be able to purchase a bunch of black market Russian nukes. All through the 1990s this was part of the media fear mongering, that Russia had all these nukes for sale to the highest bidder, easy to acquire, just needed the cash!

Nope. It’s from our stockpile equipment, dated and short on old ammo.

Perfect set up..
Biden left our stuff in Afghanistan. 80 Bil. And, gutted the MIL, then vaxxed the troops, and ran the un-vaxxed off. Sweet. /s
Cheers.

“The money spent on the weapons and ammunition went to American families who work at places like...”

Sure some families profited some. But the vast majority goes to the military industrial complex’s leaders who profit off of death. Cheering the deaths of young innocent men whose families/wifes/children love them dearly whether Russian or Ukrainian is morbid.

Sure it is largely Putin’s fault (the US and Ukraine bare some responsibility through both’s insistence of joining NATO) but the people cheering this on the most love the sound of bombs killing people in the morning. It smells like cash.

“Those ATACMs would cease to exist faster”

Didn’t you say the same thing about the Himars?

Fortunately, reckless people worse than Biden (like you) aren’t in charge.

I don’t necessarily come to that conclusion as Russian military doctrine does not call for the use of these things. Iran actually has become a big supplier of these low cost specialized suicide drones and missile technology as well.

And them HIMARs are amounted to being inconsequential having NO bearing at all on this war/conflict or it’s outcome, just like the other ‘Wunderwaffe’ sent.......and this will likewise include those NASAMs, the next alleged ‘Wunderwaffe’ to be sent to Ukraine.

“Iran actually has become a big supplier of these low cost specialized suicide drones and missile technology as well.”

Indeed.

“Over the past 7 days, 22 countries have submitted requests for the purchase of Iranian drones.

This was announced by the senior adviser to the Supreme Commander of the Iranian Armed Forces.”

A lot of Russian mothers getting their sons home in a bucket might disagree with you.
