If you ever recall the title let me know. It sounds a little like Not This August meets The Man In The High Castle.

Didn’t Russia imprison an American marine for no reason just to have a hostage? Why, yes, yes, it did.

I’m no Ukraine fan, but Putin caused this with his stupid fantasy of remaking the USSR and your soldiers need to die until the people are mad enough you get a real leader.

We did and have let "Americans rot in prison"; it has always depended on how much interest the United States had in the individual, what crimes they are accused of, and how much we were willing to risk/pay to get them out.

How many Americans are being held in nations around the world, rotting in their cells - right now?

How many have we heard of and how many are just going to stay there in Myanmar, Turkey, Russia, China, Thailand, Iran and elsewhere?

How many will never be heard from again?

“””through the THIRD most corrupt nation on the planet in their conflict with the SECOND most corrupt nation on the planet isn’t helping the FIRST most corrupt nation on the planet?”””

With the lower ranking being better and the higher worse, the United States ranks 24th in corruption.
Russia ranks at 137 and Ukraine at 116.

The Neocons cannot get their propaganda straight.

(1) The Russians are weak and stupid.

(2) The Russians are a danger to all of Europe and could begin their conquest any day.

These days lots.

Dad, Marine, WWII, China, Korea, and Vietnam told me we didn’t used to let Americans rot in foreign jails.

Do I believe him with 22½ years in the USMC or you with 27 years?

Either way, I understand your career sacrifices and vastly appreciate your service.

“We” being NATO including Canada, the article seems to point to one of the 31+1 NATO nations as probably supplying the weapon.

“unknown long-range weapon supplied by Kyiv’s allies”

“we destroyed 26 helicopters in a day, and 12 planes”

I am a supporter of Ukraine in this conflict, but I find that hard to believe.

It would be huge news.

...but I find that hard to believe.

Me too.

I wonder if he is referring to ATACMs.

ATACMs destroyed 8 or 9 helicopters on the ground.

Ruzzia then deployed the remaining helicopters back to ruzzia, effectively destroying their ability to support their ground forces.
