@Theodoric

нет камрад. Я очень хорошо.

I was there about 3-4 weeks ago. It felt very surreal heading there before the war really popped off. I had this feeling something was different this time. I didn't even spend the night. Took a train early in the morning and left that evening.

I got to visit a few friends while I was there. Last I heard, there were no Ukrainian soldiers there and they were occupied. Everyone has gone dark with the loss of cell service recently. Seeing that photo of the ships coming into the port is sickening.

Just as good as a kill, that aircraft won’t be air worthy for a while. Then again it is Russia, slap some duct tape over the holes and go on another bombing run of civilians trying to escape.


That plane is done.

No amount of duct tape could get it airworthy.

I don't know for a fact, but what I guessed from various pictures and video clips is that fighting units (soldiers) have yellow tape and civilian police, guard units have blue. But I'd be interested in finding out what its significance actually is.

You're missing the joke. With every other major power/neighbor/frenemy in an alliance they would go running to the US for influence. No one has any confusion concerning their history of supporting jihadis.

No worries. I didn't realize there was a  list of targets associated with the map, I though everyone was guessing based on the location of the dots.

They are actually guessing, btw. On the targetting map. They are pretty educated and likely guesses, but they are actually just guesses even so. They don't have, like, current and updated target lists from the Cardinal Of The Kremlin. As I said earlier aq few dozen pages ago, SLBMS don't even have assigned targets until it's go time generally, because targeting an SLBM involves telling it where it is first before where it's going, and you can't do that until you are somewhere in particular after getting a launch release order. They look at maps of shit in the Conus and say something, "Oh yeah, that's a hell of vital target. If we were them we'd probably use 4-5 devices with a total yield of about X, around this general area, probably." and then it's on the target map forever and never goes away. Not much consideration is given to do they actually have that many devices they can actually deliver accurately to that many targets in a first strike? or any of that sort of thing. They operate in a paradigm where every likely target can be hit hard and it sort of makes sense, because it's certainly possible. They don't have enough devices to hit all of the possible targets, but they are still possible, so it could happen.

There is no gold in Ft Knox, they used it all to pay for the Apollo program and when it failed they had to go to deficit spending to cover the costs of Stanley Kubrick's work on faking the videos and images. That is why we dropped the gold standard int he 70's.  By then, the Jews in Hollywood were the only ones with the gold.  True story!

Japan would win in a conventional war, Russia knows this. The Kuril islands are important for Japan in flanking Russian and Chinese submarines, and Japan really wants them back. it's also one of the most productive fishing grounds in the world. The problem for the west is Japan would pay for them to be returned, and they would pay a lot.
