You folks are making it worse.

When you see articles like this, just ignore them. They are not true. They are not even approximately true.

This sort of thing is going to put Biden in an impossible situation if Ukraine is completely conquered. He will almost have to launch ICBMs because his own party will rage at him for not doing enough. The pressure will rise to do a nuclear strike on the Kremlin because the Russians are “liars and are bluffing”. It is HUGELY unwise to allow this Russia-Is-Being-Crushed to go on. When they wind up with total victory, how can Biden avoid firing the total nuclear inventory? How could he, in the wake of Afghanistan?

So just stop this insanity. Ignore these stories. This crap can get the world ended.

I think Putin and Zelensky should order their forces to stand down and let their supporters here on FR simply fight it out by posting till one side is exhausted and gives up.

“we had only three shovels for the battalion”

Not a good sign.

“While Russian officers are busy running away, state propagandist keep upping their rhetoric to compensate.”

Unfortunately for the hopeful comrades around here, propaganda is no substitute for a competent strategy.

Heh.

“What is the point of a world without Russia in it?” always reminds me of the final five minutes of Jas Hook (played by Dustin Hoffman) saying “What would the world be like without Captain Hook?” - before putting the wig back on after Peter Pan returned it to him.

Of course, this immediately precedes his last double-cross and Hook getting eaten by the crocodile.

Putin? See that Hook? That’s you, that is.

Articles based entirely on Russian sources?

Ukraine's deteriorating air defenses are a much larger problem than the Western media is admitting.

- Ukraine boasts of receiving NASAM systems from the US;
- NASAMS have inferior spects compared to Ukraine’s dwindling supply of S-300s;
- Western analysts admit that if the West cannot resupply/replace Ukrainian air defense systems, Russia will be able to establish air superiority over the country;
- Western analysts also admit that the West is incapable of resupplying or replacing Ukraine’s air defense systems.

LOL, these comments are just getting dumber and dumber

Developed by Raytheon and Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace, NASAMS consist of the Sentinel radar, an Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missile, and a Fire Distribution Center.

Raytheon describes the Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missile as "the world's most sophisticated, combat-proven air dominance weapon." It has existed for over three decades and has been continually updated with new designs and capabilities.

The missile has reportedly been shot over 4,900 times as part of testing.

What is also great about NASAMS is that it is able to launch also first generation AMRAAMs and a5 lower fire rate even Vietnam era Sidewinders. Nothing much else to do with these old missiles and these are more than enough against Iranian drones.

Rooskie Mobik -— The world’s most hazardous job. Beggars in India live longer. So do those divers for sharks that go into the ocean in steel cages. So do bungee jumpers in improper fitting harnesses.
