Just as soon as you turn off RT.

[kiryandil]

I don’t have TeeVee, neoconned.

[kiryandil]

They're getting really, really angry.

Wait'll the Krynky salient goes belly-up.

“Your dishonesty in our exchange is pure troll stuff.”

Didn’t expect a response.

[BobL]

Yea, losing is painful for some. For me, seeing the Neocons in DC getting SPANKED is about as happy as I get, as it forces them to move a bit further away from starting World War 3.

[2CAVTrooper]

What? Too lazy to go read or watch something other than Krasnaya Zvezda and RT?

The information is readily available... Not that it really matters because you’ll just ignore anything that threatens your feeble view of reality.

[2CAVTrooper]

You must get all your info from Krasnaya Zvezda then Neo-Soviet.

[BobL]

Didn’t think you had a link...you guys NEVER do.

Ukraine's losses:

$60bn of US funding for Ukraine

€50bn of EU funding for Ukraine

Hi pot, how’s kettle?

[ansel12]

All this nasty work from you because I pointed out to you that the yachts had not even been sold, or bought by anyone, something this thread was repeating in the article.

I don’t know why you are still trying to push this fake story since you have seen it debunked for almost a month.

[kiryandil]

zElensky got $200 million that we could have used to open a cobalt mine in Idaho by subsidizing the price of cobalt for many months.

Our neoconneds were more interested in Russia and Ukrainian blood, instead of America's security interests.

Shame on them!

[BobL]

“Hi pot, how’s kettle?”

Still waiting...

[BobL]

“I don’t know why you are still trying to push this fake story...”

Fake to those who trust the WESTERN MEDIA.

By the way, how’s that ‘Greatest Offensive Operation Ever’ going?

[BobL]

It’s funny to see all these people now claim that Ukraine is as pure as the wind-driven snow and would never, ever, be corrupt.

[BobL]

Anyway, I’m through with that bunch for now. They can deal with their butt-hurt over Ukraine on their own time, but I have some REAL WORK to do...

[2CAVTrooper]

And how much of that $60 billion in “losses” were Javelin missiles that successfully destroyed your precious tanks? How much of it were Patriot missiles that successfully intercepted your “invincible” Kinzhal missiles? How much of it were GMLRS rockets fired by the HIMARS that destroyed your irreplaceable GPS jammers?

[kiryandil]

"And then the Great Ukrainian Counteroffensive will rise over Crimea..."

If you had read the thread you would have seen post 90, a more detailed version of what I posted when the fake was first planted here, which is linked to in post 75.

It was a silly claim from the beginning.

SuperYacht News has debunked the claim, the brokers say both yachts are still for sale and the MYBA-The Worldwide Yachting Association says the forms displayed haven’t been used in more than a decade, that they have strange areas redacted and appear to have forged areas, including the initials, and no one knows who that guy is that gave you people the fake story in the first place, his youtube video had 13 followers at the beginning.
