I’m surprised we haven’t lost aircraft. The targeting and command and control for all the equipment we’ve sent is being ran by our guys. I doubt any of those F35s and AWACS are being flown by the Ukes.
Independent Ukraine
The population of Ukraine voted overwhelmingly for independence in the referendum of December 1, 1991.
(About 84 percent of eligible voters turned out for the referendum, and about 90 percent of them endorsed independence.)
[When Ukrainians voted for independence from the Soviet Union in 1991, all of its 24 “oblasts,” or regions – including Donetsk, Luhansk and Crimea – supported Ukraine independence.
The minority of ethnic Russians were included as Ukrainian citizens in an independent state voted for independence. The ethnic Russians and Russian speakers in Ukraine’s east did not automatically support the separatists or want to be part of Russia.
The exact point is the minority ethically Russian or Russian speakers other ethnic minorities in Crimea & Donbass region were living peacefully For most of the first two decades after Ukraine independence.
In other words, being an ethnic Russian or a Russian speaker does not indicate that one sees its self as part of the Russian World. There has been an increase in sentiment of a strong, unified Ukrainian identity since 1991. Most Ukrainians see their future as a sovereign country that is part of Europe. Of course, this directly contradicts Putin’s goals. Putin attempts to invoke the concept of the “Russian World” or “Russkiy Mir.”
iNSTEAD, PUTIN has created a “Transnistrian” policy pattern of frozen conflicts in Moldova (Transnistria region), Georgia (Abkhazia and South Ossetia), and now in Ukraine annexed Crimean peninsula and the Donbas.
Putin uses this geopolitical tactical pattern of created separatist conflicts to create corruption and criminality as ‘Trojan horses’ to block progress in reform-minded periphery countries. These CONFLICTS created by Russia is part of Putin’s imperialistic plan to regain Russia’s LOST EMPIRE.
Of course, Putin wants to fully separate occupied parts of Luhansk and Donetsk oblasts from Ukraine and recognize its Donbas puppet republics just like Georgia’s Abkhazia and South Ossetia.
If Russia withdraws its troops from any occupied territory, these territories would DISAPPEAR for a later Russian “geopolitical project”.
“Nobody in DC started conflict. Russia started this war by invading Ukraine. Stop apologizing for the warmonger in the Kremlin”
Thanks for your comment! TOTALLY AGREE!
INFORMATION:
EXTERNAL POWER HAS BEEN RESTORED TO UKRAINE’S ZAPORIZHZHIA NUCLEAR POWER PLANT (ZNPP) two days after it lost all access to off-site electricity due to Russia’s shelling.
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said this in a statement, Ukrinform reports.
It is noted that on Friday, at around 22:00, the 750 kV power supply to all six units of the ZNPP had been re-established, and the eight operating emergency diesel generators turned off and put into standby mode.
The 750 kV line is therefore now once again providing the electricity the ZNPP’s six reactors need for cooling and other essential nuclear safety and security functions.

According to the IAEA, there is no change in the operational status of all units. Units 5 and 6 are in semi-hot shutdown providing steam to the site and arrangements are being made to further heat-up both units to a hot shutdown state. The other four units remain in cold shutdown.
“The repeated power outages all too clearly demonstrate the extremely serious nuclear safety and security situation this major nuclear power plant is facing. So far, the brave staff of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant have always managed to maintain the safe operation of the six units. But it can’t go on like this. I have repeatedly called for the urgent establishment of a nuclear safety and security protection zone around the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant to prevent a nuclear accident. We can’t afford to lose any more time. We must act before it is too late,” IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi said.
As reported by Ukrinform, on November 2, Zaporizhzhia NPP was completely de-energized due to enemy shelling.
Agree with your post except Uyhgurs are Muslim. Muslims are a problem everywhere they exist and bring all their persecution on themselves. Don’t be suckered into the Uyhgurs propaganda. There are plenty of things to trash China for. Uyghurs are not one of them. China knows how to deal with their Muslim problem, most do not.

Yes, because putting people of a different religion in concentration camps worked out so well the last time.
Independent Ukraine when in 2004 the neocon Bush administration sponsored and coordinated the crooked election of the Orange Revolution. Independent Ukraine when in 2014 the Obama gang arrived. Independent Ukraine when the corrupt oligarchs running DC and Kiev impeached Trump for turning over the rock they were conducting their nation corrupting business under? Independent Ukraine, got any more knee slappers?
Equate Muslims with Jews?
NO. Stop with the Russian propaganda talking points.
Independent Ukraine!!!
The population of Ukraine voted overwhelmingly for independence in the referendum of December 1, 1991.
In 1991, all of its 24 “oblasts,” or regions – including Donetsk, Luhansk and Crimea – SUPPORTED UKRAINE INDEPENDENCE.

The EXACT POINT is the minority ethically Russian or Russian speakers other ethnic minorities in Crimea & Donbass region were living peacefully for the first TWO DECADES after Ukraine independence.
(About 84 percent of eligible voters turned out for the referendum, and about 90 percent of them endorsed independence.)
What are you talking about? This isn’t about all of Ukraine. This is about the areas the Russians occupied and claimed. No, Putin has NO interest in the rest of Ukraine. That has been the Russian position of peace negotiations since this began. Independent Ukraine, Hah! If you’d ever get your head out of your media masters’ feeding trough perhaps you’d see how ridiculous that statement of yours is. Don’t you ever get tired of carrying water for your big guy’s corrupt stratagems? Geesh, it’s so easy for the illegitimate gang in DC and their media stooges to take you Bushite neocons along for their globalist ride.
Russia started the war in 2014 and the US is just giving back what Russia gave us in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Cuba, and etc.
Not only were you Bushite neocons spreading your death and destruction across the Middle East in 2004 you were also rigging and corrupting the Ukraine 2004 election while pushing the incredibly destabilizing Orange Revolution. 2014, are you serious? That’s the year your other hero, Obama, and his gang arrived in Kiev. Did you watch the corrupt Uke stooges and goons on parade during the impeachment hearings? You know when your fellow travelers, the Vindmans, Biden, NSC and State Department had Trump impeached for turning over the rock they were corrupting each other under? When do we attack Japan, Germany, Spain, England for a little pay back? What an imbecilic idea.
Putin started this unprovoked war against a country that NEVER attacked Russia.
Putin did this for his own purposes and not for Russia
What the hell does that have to do with me or my grandchildren? Why do we pick this $100+Billion a year proxy war to go nuclear brinksmanship saber rattling in? There are easily another hundred vastly less dangerous globalist/neocon quagmires we could go involve ourselves in rather than this one. Would that satisfy your bloodlust? And none of those countries attacked us or any of our allies either.
“Putin has NO interest in the rest of Ukraine”
That’s why he attacked Kyiv and tried to conquer it?
That’s why he tried to grab Odessa?
You do realise that Putin’s propaganda media has fed you false information.
The same thing 1938 Munich had to do with you , your parents and grandparents.
By stopping Putin now, we prevent a wider war
Again, it has nothing to do with the US. It is ZERO threat to us or our allies. So, just being responsible for say another million innocent deaths in say your favorite neocon playground, the Middle East, wouldn’t satisfy your bloodlust. This time if 250 million Americans die in your big guy addled pi$$ing contest with Putin your bloodlust still won’t be satisfied because you’ll be dead too. Unless you can come up with a legitimate threat from Russia to America go strut your bloodlust for someone else.
New tanks?
LMAO.
Try refurbished scrapping bottom of the barrel....idiot Denys Davydov!
‘US Sending Moth-balled Gear to Ukraine as Russian Reinforcements Continue to Gather’
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2r-zUVqDjI
you and your grandchildren should care as it is a threat to the US and its allies.
prosperity in the U.S. is directly connected to peace in Europe. The trans-Atlantic economy is the largest in the world. It’s about $1.5 trillion in annual trade.
If Russia succeeded even partially grabbing territory by military means in Ukraine, that will send a clear message to everyone who wants to rewrite rules on which the world is based, that this is possible, opening us up to a 19th century world.
The Ukrainians have repeatedly said that Ukraine is fighting this war for eight years. And they have never requested American boots on the ground.
The Ukrainians are the ones fighting this war.
They said and keep saying : “We don’t need your boots on the ground, but help us to fight this war diplomatically, militarily. And we will defend the current world order led by the United States and other democratic countries in this part of the world.”
Putin wants to set up a New World Order in which your grandchildren will be poorer and besieged.
Pray for Russia to be converted from KGB led to Christianity.
Putin is killing Eastern Orthodox Slavs in Ukraine.
