I thought Russia ran out of missiles and ammunition a long time ago, no?
One would think they would know not to have electrical equipment powered up that can be located when on.
(Don’t Russians ever watch Law and Order or 48 Hours?...)
:)
I also would think it odd to sleep with explosives in my building.
I assumed barracks and ammo depots were segregated buildings...
They’ve run out 18 times, and Putin has died of 9 fatal illnesses.
At least whatever the number, it’s one that we won’t have to kill once Pedo Joe gets us involved.

>> One HIMAR (High Mobility Artillery Rocket System) reportedly costs roughly $2.4 million and the United States has so far donated 22 of the units to Ukraine since May 2022. <<
I’m trying to wrap my brain around the fact that so much U.S. military equipment costs hundreds of millions of dollars, and one HIMARS costs $2.4 million. It seems like 10,000 of those would do a pretty damned good job of defending America and Europe for a pittance. Or is 99% of the cost in the rockets themselves?
Our country is undergoing an administrative state coup and is falling apart but "conservative" clowns want to save other countries from themselves. We have been invaded by over 2 million illegal aliens in just the past 2 years hooking up with the 40 million illegal aliens that "conservatives" let in before. The Deep State is stripping away our rights and impoverishing us but "conservative" neocons want to fight in a Slavic civil war 5000 miles away over the vast Atlantic Ocean. Forever War is the lever that despots are using to enslave Americans and enrich themselves.
Give me a patriot any day over a squishy conservative. "Conservative" just means Deep State surrender-monkey.
That’s about 1 day’s worth of Ukrainian losses from the Bakhmut area.
What a steaming pile of horse droppings!
Ukraine's Serhiy Prytula Charity Foundation purchased a Finnish-produced ICEYE satellite for the country's armed forces. The charity made the purchase with the $17 million initially fundraised by Ukrainians to buy Bayraktar attack drones
On Aug. 18, Ukraineâs Serhiy Prytula Charity Foundation purchased a Finnish-produced ICEYE satellite for the countryâs armed forces.Â
The charity made the purchase with the $17 million initially fundraised by Ukrainians to buy Bayraktar attack drones. The Turkish manufacturer, Baykar, refused to take the money and instead offered three drones to Ukraine for free.
According to an agreement with ICEYE, Ukraine gets one of the companyâs 21 satellites and one-year access to imagery collected by other ICEYE spacecraft. Ukraine will remain the sole owner of the satellite for as long as it remains in orbit, and if the satellite fails, the company is obliged to provide Ukraine with a new one.
Brandon pulled out American advisors last February and tried to get the Ukrainian president to get on a US chopper out of Kyiv.
PaedoBiden is a loser
We donate nothing
US taxpayers pay for those weapons
Arms companies get rich
Ukraine gets debt to repay
Which is why they are wholly owned
>> Itâs not 1970, and the Soviet Empire is not reconstituting. <<
That’s what I confidently told myself as Russia was preparing for this war.
Also very troubling: Russia seems utterly unconcerned about its 3,000-mile-long border* with China. Awfully strange to be willing to leave themselves so defenseless, unless they know that China considers them too useful to invade.
It seems very plain to me now that Zhirinovksy won over Putin. In that case, this is a terrible tragedy of the ages for Russians. I don’t want to see Russia driven from Crimea, and I’m pretty certain that the Donbas can never be reintegrated into Ukraine. But if Russia gains an inch of the Donbas, it needs to be at such a cost as to completely, utterly demolish the Zhirinovsky wing of Russian power.
Side note: I did not mean Zhirinovsky had actually taken control of anything, only that his ideology won out. But I realized I hadn’t heard anything at all about him personally since this war started. Turns out he conveniently died shortly after the war started.
No. 2.35M$ is for “shipping and handling” by PedoJoe’s people.
* I know Mongolia sits between Russia and China for much of this 3,000-mile border. I consider Mongolia an insignificant problem for any Chinese invasion of RUssia.
Lol wife watches crime stories and she always says Rookie mistake donât these people watch cops..
From much of what I have seen the Russian military doesnât seem to have it act together so I could imagine that the troops have mattresses on top of rocket cratesâŚ.
Like always having hatches on vehicles open which leads to the dramatic 40mm grenade drooped into the open hatch or 40km traffic jams
Loose lips sink ships
>> Thatâs about 1 dayâs worth of Ukrainian losses from the Bakhmut area. <<
And yet, Russia keeps pouring resources into Bakhmut and getting next to nothing.
700 or 70 or 7?
Guess we’ll have to wait until tomorrow to find out the actual number.
“...Arms companies get rich...”
Yup! Just like big Pharmas! We pay several ways to big Pharma: the dollars, the jabs, and death.
This is the correct stance. The United States should follow a course of strict neutrality in this conflict between these two little dictators. Instead, we have a Putin Fanboi Faction here (which is insane) and at least one poster who I think is seriously romantically infatuated with Zelensky who daily rallies a faction that appears to be running for Mayor of Kiev
