Russian forces pounded targets across Ukraine, taking aim at supply lines for foreign weapons in the west and intensifying an offensive in the east, as the European Union moved Wednesday to further punish Moscow for the war with a proposed ban on oil imports.
The Russian military said Wednesday it used sea- and air-launched precision guided missiles to destroy electric power facilities at five railway stations across Ukraine, while artillery and aircraft also struck troop strongholds and fuel and ammunition depots.
The defense minister repeated that Russian forces have blocked off a steel mill in Mariupol from which scores of civilians were evacuated over the weekend. Another official denied they were storming the plant, as its defenders said a day earlier.

Gotta send more weapons to Ukraine. Jeez, here’s an idea. Why not give Russia weapons too? That will keep the US Military Industrial Complex going full tilt.
The fact remains that Russia illegally invaded Ukraine. If they go home all of this stops.
Period.

Time to send those Polish SU29 jets, if Russia
doesn’t like it they can pound sand.
I could care less. Period. I have zero interest in Ukraine. The US has zero national interest in Ukraine. When we have a moron who is CinC and woke generals, I have zero interest in doing anything militarily. Our country is going woke and broke. We spend dollars that we do not have on things of zero national interest thus raising inflation even more. That makes zero sense.
You mean you COULDN’T care less.
yeah ... mind moving faster than the fingers.
And it is our business why?
I actually worked with a guy that I agreed with him when he said could.
I said that he was so negative and whining the his lack of care was infinite.
It was quite the loud, long rant trashing him.
I got a talking to for it…totally worth it.
You could care less? Do you mean that you couldn’t care less?
The only interest I have in this little dust up is academic. I despise bullies. And I love seeing them get their faces smashed in. Russia is the aggressor here and I’m thoroughly enjoying watching them get kicked right in their collective crotch.
The entire world owes Russia a big old heaping helping of payback for what they spent the last 100 years doing to Eastern Europe and Africa. They loosed an incredible evil on the world. Nothing that happens to them is bad enough to suit me.

“And it is our business why.”
Because this isn’t 1939. If Russia succeeds what do you think China will do with regards to Taiwan?

My mind was moving faster than my finders. But I could test the limit of how much I really care. I'm not sure if I hit rock bottom.
I agree. The only interest I have is that I live within the shadow of CENTCOM and would be gone in a first strike. The stupid woketards in the West are fueling this war that may end badly for everyone.

You’ll need to toss most European countries into the pile to note all the countries that exploited Africa.
If I owned wheat or corn farmland in the U.S. I'd count all this as good for business. LOL
I think you have your bullies mixed up.
The Europeans pretty much gave up their African empires 80 years ago. Russia tried to expand theirs. Ask the Angolans about it.

I read an excerpt from a NY Slimes article that wondered why the Ruskies weren’t following our playbook of destroying the civilian infrastructure, particularly how easy it would be to shutdown civilized life in places like Kiev.
Perhaps they should try to answer that question and wonder what is next after turning Ukraine into an arms bizarre.
Its the people that need to be the priority and the West has gone full lunatic fringe and i am in no way justifying the attack on a sovereign nation
How dare them!
