Russian refinery in Rostov just promoted to colossal fireball! What air defense doink?
“If you’re back that means the end of Ukraine is very near. And this is good. Pray for Peace”
Agreed this is not our war. but the problem I have with the modern Democrat and much of America is that capitulation to a invading power or criminals is better than defending yourself and killing the enemy.
“In WW2, US industrial might about doubled.”
Two times zero is zero.
The equipment for the new Texas artillery ammunition factory arrived. Equipment from a Turkish company made in a Turkish factory and installed by Turkish workers. 🙃

Biden’s election requirements are a media victory in Ukraine.
Ukraine might not hold up until November.
Hodges is an Obama pass during the ideological purges and then promoted like a goid little leftist.
Ben Hodges. Has this guy ever been right on anything ever? I’d be embarrassed to quote him, unless it was to mock him.
I think those 300,000 are gping to be North of Kiev, and another 500,000 in reserves.
The US is giving Ukraine hope. Another missile escalation, and soon the Reaper drones will get jammed.
I have a hunch that Rv$$!@ isn’t about to give up on Ukraine unless hell freezes over and I think neither one will happen. At the same time, if it looks more and more likely that Trump will win taking both events in account it wouldn’t surprise me if liberal war mongers will decide to put Americans troops on the ground in Ukraine as liberals don’t want to lose any gains they have made as usual during a conflict they retain the current president in power.
There is little doubt in my mind that Rv$$!@ will take a dim view at this prospect and should they feel their back is against the wall it wouldn’t surprise me if all hell will break loose in form of some “Homebrew global warming”
I don’t think Rv$$!@ will come out on top, but neither will the US. If nothing else the so called “Globalists” will finally have achieved their dream of reducing the population, and then we start all over again. I hope I am wrong.
The little coward is afraid to face his countrymen and is afraid for his illegimate presidency.
The USA is pushing really hard to escalate - hoping for direct war - before the elections.
No one wins a war. The current situation is more dangerous than the Cuban crisis. I would say that nukes flying have a probability of 50% in the next months.
Russia has four times the population of Canada and about the same GDP.
Sustaining a war of this massive scale is just not in the books for them. So far they’ve been using up old Soviet-era equipment and at some point they’ll run out.
And then what will they have?
Ghost divisions armed with paper tanks, paper airplanes, and paper soldiers.
Russia is the last gasp of the Soviet Union and it is killing itself.
Trust me...you’re the last person I miss.....Ms Tokyo
“An invading power”
Here’s another way to look at it.
Europe under spheres of influence had 100 years of peace. Palestine under the Turks was at peace for hundreds of years. Woodrow Wilson’s vision of small weak states promoting ethnic and religious supremacy has bathed the planet in blood and continues to do so right now today.
If Mexico had done one tenth of what “Ukraine” had done since 2014 the Marines would be storming the heights of Chapultepec right now.
Not true.
"The sanction war has failed."
Not true.
"(Neither) The Wagner group nor the Russian population started a revolution"
Not true.
"Russia is cranking out... missiles at greater rates than West combined.
Not true.
The Russians are only using 10% of their military.
Not True.
Five untruths, in four lines of text.
Russian refinery in Rostov. Massive fire now.
(Wonder weapons at work)
Great! I was getting tired of paying to arm Ukraine!
I know that many Ukrainians fought in Hitlers army, but did others join the Russia army?? What does WWII history say???
“There is ZERO chance of Ukraine getting any territory back.”
They got back Kherson City, and all of Kyiv and Sumy and Chernihiv and Karkhiv Oblasts, and all of the Western Black Sea including Snake Island.
Resupply to Crimea is getting tenuous, now that all of it is under the ATACMS range fan, and the F-16s are coming. Russian Air Defenses in Crimea have proven to be useless against ATACMS.
