    I'm sorry none of this stuff was ever a good idea. And even if Russia caps the head Nazis and leaves - what then. You'll have a bunch of new ones.

    Russia has to keep its objectives realistic. Regime change and nation-building aren't realistic. Neither is anything that leads to any kind of campaign longer than a week.

    Yeah you are just proving him true.

    The road out of the plantation took Russia here, or did you expect the West would just ask you kindly whether you wanted to be enslaved and finished off? If you want to get out of the lethal trap the West has set for you, you will need to fight, confront challenges and do things you would prefer not doing ffs...

    Its gonna be good man, praise guys doing work



    Keep Working guys

    The wise words the guys from the Duran said. Things will be tough economically in Russia for short period of time, but the west all threw their cards on the table and this is it, Russia will have all the time to adjust and build itself up. Even if China and India cower out (which they wont), Russia is so big and so full of resources and talent, they will strive like they did before. They are effectively free now. No more western burden.

    What's funny, this is exactly why the federal reserve and the central banks in Europe kept telling their incompetent leaders not to push these sanctions. Because the leaders in their hysterics and incompetence, just effectively killed the unipolar world idea they wanted. Now we will see Chinas and Indias growth to dominance.

    Poles and Ukrainians playing a dangerous game. Especially if they operate the Migs directly out of Poland.

    Imagine if a Russian jet is chasing a Ukrainian MiG back to Poland and they get shot down around Polish air space.

    Great idea, no doubt, but opens up a lot of concern for possible cross-border incidents with Poland.

    What happens if a RU jet engages a Ukrainian airframe even if it lies in NATO airspace? Lots of questions.

    It's fine, we can disagree. I agree to an extent - they need to be more proactive at closing the border. Now it is partially closed between east and west Ukraine but of course not to Europe. Issue is, the main drive is to force out or defeat the majority of forces which are in Donbass region. We are talking roughly about 70K soldiers here. So between Russia and the DNR and LNR forces, they created a cauldron to surround the Ukrainian forces, and are now slowly squeezing them. Now they are completely blocked off in Mariupol. Kherson as well. Once these forces are defeated, the bulk of what is left (very little) of Ukraines forces then can be concentrated on, and that's out west. At that point, Russian forces along with rebels would have now met up, lands taken in between and both can march forward. Kiev is surrounded to put ultimate pressure on the government and the Russians won't move in, at least not yet. Not till the other two cities are fully captured.

    The block off of border will move westward.

    Ukraine in the end will be two states - west which is Lviv, can go to Europe. East will be Novorussia.

    This is my assumption based on what we are seeing.

    Sorry about that, it seems plenty of people has relatives on both sides. The humanitarian corridor is open in Kiev, can she go westwards or to Russia, is that true?

    How do you know what capabilities are and objectives of new campaign? Im really curious. Seems you know something Russian side doesn't.

    I don't know. And neither do you

    Precisely, that's why whatever you say is just speculating then we can agree. As for Russian objective for this campaign we do not know really but assuming Russian leadership is stupid not knowing how to plan something planned for years now? Or waging outcomes. They choose just the best option form all they had.



    And I'm sorry to hear your relatives are in Kiev. I had auntie in Belgrade in 99. All the best for relatives.

    kvs wrote:So NATzO is preparing an insurgency campaign from the west.   There is a steady stream of NATzO transport aircraft delivering
    weapons to the border of Ukraine.   They pulled exactly the same shtick after 1945.    NATzO thinks it can organize an Afghanistan
    for Russia.  

    I think the Russian government knew exactly the consequences of this operation.   It would sever links to the west and the decision
    to act was not taken lightly.   Various NATzO blowhard "analysts" try to project all sorts of madness onto Putin.   The usual 1984
    hate fest focused on the demonized leader of the "other".   NATzO was not going to stop trying to destroy Russia.   The regime
    change efforts would be ongoing and NATzO would install its offensive missile assets in Ukraine, Belarus and Kazakhstan.   The
    pattern is crystal clear.

    This operation is a battle against NATzO which may expand.   NATzO is run by child rapist degenerate freaks who are not quite
    attached to reality.   They think that they make reality.  

    100% in agreement, and think its remarkable that so many posters don't seem to understand that the anti-Russian hysteria of the Western ruling classes is not a new thing, but its just the mask finally being taken off and the hate-filled Russophobe racist attitudes no longer being concealed.

    US/EU/NATO have always intended to destroy Russia, but they planned to do it over decades by subjecting Russia to a multi-pronged war of attrition using (a) a soft-power culture war, finance, economics, propaganda, and (b) sapping Russia by the promotion of conflicts around her periphery to cause chaos and strip her of friends and allies.

    Does anyone really think that the Ukraine colonization project and the recent (failed) color revolution attempts in Belarus and Kazahkstan are somehow unrelated? Or the long line of false flag political attacks like MH17, Skripals, Navalny, Syrian "CW attacks", state-sponsored doping allegations, Putins mythical billions, etc etc?

    Western elites are in full hysterical retard mode cuz Russia has finally broken cover and is acting to block the Empire.  They fear the consequences of what will happen if Russia can block EUNATO expansion, especially if, as it will, include the breaking of the Western monopoly control of international finance.  Russia breaking free of the Wests stranglehold over her finances and economic growth will be death knell of their dirty little extortion game, and they greatly fear the yawning black bottomless pit of economic collapse that awaits them when their house of cards (USD) finally collapses.

    Ignore the shrieking of the hate-spew merchants.  Ignore the dumbassery of the brain-dead mouth-breathing consumer herd that are plugged into Twatter, FB et al  and the other organs of the Western lie-machine.  That shit doesn't translate to victories on the ground.

    As Kenny Rogers said it so perfectly - "There'll be time enough for counting (bodies) when the deal is done".   Twisted Evil

    That doesn't solve the problem does it?
    NATO would be approximately 450km further west.

    Containment is critical and you can't say you have contained the problem by eliminating 50% of the issues.

    Multiple strikes, interesting shape of the explosion in the one in the video, anyone any idea why?


    Aldin 🇧🇦@aldin_ww·5h

    Major airsrikes have hit Kyiv suburb of Brovary.

    Brivary is a place where some important units of Ukraine Armed Forces are located.
    - Main Intelligence Directorate of MoD
    - Center for electronic Intelligence
    - S300 SAM site
    - 72nd Center for Information and Psychological Operations

    From what I can tell looking at this footage, it's most likely a strike on 72nd Center for Information and Psychological Operations. It's night and its hard to see..

    Looking through lost armour website picture of a destroyed Tunguska, first I have heard being deployed in Ukraine. Would be nice for this system to finally get a combat kill.

    The 81 refers to S-300, Buk and Osa systems. Ukraine did not have many S-300s.

    Aldin 🇧🇦@aldin_ww·5h

    Major airsrikes have hit Kyiv suburb of Brovary.

    Brivary is a place where some important units of Ukraine Armed Forces are located.
    - Main Intelligence Directorate of MoD
    - Center for electronic Intelligence
    - S300 SAM site
    - 72nd Center for Information and Psychological Operations

    From what I can tell looking at this footage, it's most likely a strike on 72nd Center for Information and Psychological Operations. It's night and its hard to see..

    The plume is from an earlier detonation. It just gets lit up by the one shown in the video.

    I am finding the gradual pace of the missile attacks a bit surprising. All of these targets could have been hit on day 1.

    The wise words the guys from the Duran said.  Things will be tough economically in Russia for short period of time, but the west all threw their cards on the table and this is it, Russia will have all the time to adjust and build itself up. Even if China and India cower out (which they wont), Russia is so big and so full of resources and talent, they will strive like they did before.  They are effectively free now. No more western burden.

    What's funny, this is exactly why the federal reserve and the central banks in Europe kept telling their incompetent leaders not to push these sanctions. Because the leaders in their hysterics and incompetence, just effectively killed the unipolar world idea they wanted.  Now we will see Chinas and Indias growth to dominance.

    Bingo, and this is the big earth-shattering event that the Western plebs (and some of our dumber "elites") are missing as they continue to spray spittle on their laptops as they angrily punch keys and repeat the nonsense of Banderite clowns.

    China is in Russias corner. Russia is the key to their security and strategic defense-in-depth. They will never abandon the Russian bear to be dragged down by the Western jackals as they know that the next target will be the Dragon, and the Chinese have long memories of what happened to the last Imperial dynasty and the century of humiliation that followed.

    Monday will be interesting as the west has openly declared that they intend to massively attack the ruble with the expectation that its value will collapse. I fully expect that the Chinese will be waiting in the wings to take advantage of the buyers market to stock up on oodles of cheap rubles that they can then use on their trade with Russia. The ruble will fall because markets behave like teenage girls, but it will rebound quickly, and won't be anything like the cataclysm that so many Russophobe lunatics in the West are salivating over.

    Russian special military operation in Ukraine #3 - Page 8 Screen19

    Situation is dire for Ukropia

    Zaporizhia has got massive grouping to the east

    The Ukropians near izium gave up position, they are getting shelled at kramatorsk,  LNR pushes from severodonetsk to slavyansk

    The grouping near kiev is has arrived to the east, kiev is nearly blocked, and the west also

    Only the southern approaches are still clear

    In all, they have nearly reached the Dnieper near Kiev, the whole flank has folded in north

    Those southern units, I have no idea what they will do near kramatorsk, theyre basically effed if they dont surrender, it's a lot of funerals

    Either way the Dnieper river is like a natural sealer for the cauldron

    This show is almost over guys
