Do we need to make a separate war profiteering thread?

Ya mean.. like Shrub/Obammy/Bidensky???

Completely agree, but it will go over most people's heads, unfortunately, especially those who need to hear it the most.

Two guesses, he either was told to go attack some target and made a “business decision”, or more likely the Russians are just lobbing everything they can into cities from safe distances.  This would mirror the observed tactics by their aircraft.

Well... Live Action Role Play

Certainly no shortage of "live action" it's a real war after all,  but elements of the unit are certainly "role playing" the nazzzi angle.  

And let's not forget we're on a board that has at times dogpiled members for merely showing off grandpa's war trophies he took off of dead nazzis (German ones).  

IDGAF personally about the units issues,  I KNOW the world is a complicated place.  I just like to point out the hypocrisy of my political enemies.  

The problem is the 2 sides define the event completely differently. Trump failed to do a good job expressing in specific terms what he wanted and left it open to interpretation from both sides.  He has a habit of continuing to do that after it has bitten him in the ass.

@outofbattery called it.

Ukraine is looking for a "third way"

   The fondness many Germans have for Russia is only surpassed  by the far left Finns in terms of people who should know better behaving abysmally.

Dispatches From the Ukrainian Front, the reality of war in Ukraine: An interview with a Ukrainian cyborg

These people exist. Some people in DC would love a limited engagement conventional war that would let them ram through all the domestic policy they want while Americans are buying magnetic ribbons for their cars.

Police states get to do police state things. I have no idea what’s going on in Belarus and don’t care to speculate based upon only,so far,rumors.

 Meanwhile it looks like Putin is going to start making examples

Problem is, convertibility into foreign  currency has been suspended. Meaning one can't buy USD or Euro or anything over there. This is just like in the year 1980.
Soon they will make hoarding foreign currency illegal.

SWIFT has been disconnected, the embargo on parts is real, give it  6 months and the economy will collapse.

its the start of BinLaden 2.0

Kind of the hail Mary approach?  It did seem very odd.  Curious if any of the military helo guys here have ever heard of the tactic being practiced or is really just as desperate as it appears?

Watch the video in my post.  The C14 leader says it in his own words.

Also read any white paper from any western  think-thank discussing the topic for the past several decades.  They may use fancy language but it’s what they’re saying.

Same message from people like Zbigniew Brzezinski or other contemporary high level architects of geopolitical policy and strategy.

There’s also an interview of Soros from 1995 which has been posted here a bazillion times ..may want to give that a read.

Start with the video in my post.

Kill off the Russian ethnicity that much faster. WIN!

RUSSIAN MODEL WHO TRASHED PUTIN ON SOCIAL MEDIA FOUND DEAD IN SUITCASE -NYP

Man these people are crazy, 3 weeks later and still out and about in the middle of a warzone!

Those were Chechens. You can tell by their accents and the Allah Akbar being said several times throughout.

Like Geoffrey in GOT

That was my only complaint as well.

I think the thing some observers are missing is that those people aren't losing their mind; they've always been idiots susceptible to suggestion.  Every faction has them.   They're the mirror image of the Trader Joe's stocker in skinny jeans ranting about whatever the left is butthurt about.   The left in the US really stepped up their propaganda game in the last couple of years and now is putting *a lot* of effort encouraging that group - taking things like regular Russian shilling and amplifying the aspects of if that they find convenient for their opponents to take up.


Speaking of which, a couple pages back:



... and yet you have a million mouth breathers, including a bunch in GD, running around talking about how there "hasn't been any video of actual fighting" and publicly speculating that the war is fake.    

Why yes, yes indeed it is.

It could merely be the opening play in that "game"

A less inflammatory tweet would likely be poor bait...

President’s Office: Ukraine wants to end war by forming coalition able to stop Russia in future

17.03.2022 16:37
Ukraine intends to end the war with the Russian Federation by forming a new international security coalition.

“What matters to us is not status, but allies who are really ready to fight alongside us. The invasion of Ukraine has shown that the whole architecture of European security must be reconsidered. We know that Putin can only be stopped by force. NATO does not have that force. In our opinion, this is an organization whose main activity is to organize summits where the generals show that they are cool… So we want to end this war with a new coalition, so powerful that it will be able to stop Russia if it wants to attack someone again," Mykhailo Podolyak, Adviser to the Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, said in an interview with the Wiadomości Polish newspaper, Ukrinform reports.

He explained that the basis of the coalition would be fundamentally different from the Budapest Memorandum but would provide a specific condition in line with all the rules of international law. According to the Adviser to the Head of the President’s Office, the document will describe the mechanisms that should be implemented if an attack on Ukraine occurs again. "We want to make sure that we will not be left alone on the battlefield again. The guarantor states will make certain commitments. In the future, this document can be developed and underpin a completely new alliance to ensure security all over Europe," Podolyak added.

He declined to name the states that expressed readiness to join the coalition as talks continue. At the same time, the representative of the President’s Office assured that President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky would present the whole concept when they ended.

In addition, Podolyak noted that the formation of the coalition was one of the key topics of the meeting of the President of Ukraine with Prime Minister of Poland Mateusz Morawiecki, Prime Minister of the Czech Republic Petr Fiala, and Prime Minister of Slovenia Janez Janša in Kyiv on March 15.

Podolyak stressed that Poland's accession to the new union was very important for Ukraine. "Poland is one of Ukraine's best friends today. We are infinitely grateful for the help provided and we believe that Poland and Ukraine should participate together in all negotiations on security in Europe," he said.

On February 24, Russian president Vladimir Putin announced the beginning of the invasion of Ukraine. Russian troops destroy key infrastructure, massively shell residential areas of Ukrainian cities and villages using artillery, multiple launch rocket systems, and ballistic missiles.

Up until the invasion, all the news could do is whine about how there were nazi's in ukraine...

Video is pro Russian propaganda. Sorry m8. Stopped when he called the 2014 overthrow of Yanukovitch “democratically elected”.  No proof in that video at all that Azov is just an expendable group being used to undermine Ukraine.
