Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By ad_nauseam: This. Only thing is, I am not sure they lost their "best". Russians have a habit of sending penal battalions into battle to clear the way for more experienced, organized units. Penal battalions were formed from ZEKs, or prisoners. If your battalion gets encircled, you become a traitor, "Enemy of the People" and go to Gulag and then to a penal battalion to "redeem" yourself. I wonder if Putin plays stupid for now, lets them think they are winning, let's this continue for a bit longer, exhausts UA and then throws more divisions into the meat grinder, this time real, not BS conscripts. That's how they won in Stalingrad. Threw fresh reserves into the battle. Thing is, not sure he has that resource. Or can command anyone to go. Who in his right mind would climb into a box on wheels only to end up under fire. The sent VDV. We already know this theory is wrong. Besides at some point 87-pandimensional hyperchess becomes indistinguishable from Actually Incompetent. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By trapsh00ter99: Won't those missile sites just be empty silos, as we would have launched everything once we detected a thousand incoming? Military bases yes of course, but missile sites seem like a wasted target. The minute man missle system was designed as a retaliatory weapon. The Ruskies would attempt to take those out, and its possible under certain scenarios thay could saving thier military and thier cities from certain destruction. This was assumed to be the biggest risk we faced and was the reason behind project safeguard. Even then the odds of successfully defending the missile fields were terrible. The project was scrapped because it simply wasn't possible to stop a massive attack. It would all depend on what the Russian though they could pull off before we figure out what the fuck is going on. |

If the winds blow a little more south east than that maps show, I am toast.

Besides this vote and her tweet today on how we shouldn’t be supplying Ukraine, MTG also released a video stating Ukraine has no chance of winning and the US and Europe are giving them false hope by supplying them. As good Christians we should encourage them to surrender to save lives. Much like Tucker Fucking Carlson, the useful idiots keep making excuses for statements that are crystal clear when simply taken at face value. Post the video Find it yourself. Or don't, I don't give a shit. MTG is a giant fucking tard and anyone who carries water for her is beyond helping, convincing, or even communicating with really. She is embarrassingly stupid to a level that is only exceeded by those dumb enough to believe her or defend her. I learned in one of the latest Tucker Carlson threads that even piles of video evidence showing them saying exactly what was claimed isn't enough so I won't bother with the Putin fellating moron MTG either. |

None of that is true. You sure? This is the source: https://www.rand.org/content/dam/rand/pubs/research_reports/RR2200/RR2237/RAND_RR2237.pdf ETA: Published in 2018 at the direction of the Trump DoD - "This research was sponsored by the Office of the Secretary of Defense’s Rapid Reaction Technology Office and conducted within the International Security and Defense Policy Center of the RAND National Defense Research Institute, a federally funded research and development center sponsored by the Office of the Secretary of Defense, the Joint Staff, the Unified Combatant Commands, the Navy, the Marine Corps, the defense agencies, and the defense Intelligence Community." Absolutely certain. That chart is complete nonsense. And, it comes from the leftist group "PropOrNot Team", not the Rand Corp. In case you are unfamiliar with the way ZeroHedge works (which clearly Rand wasn't), they have both original content which they have under the byline pseudonym "Tyler Durden" and they also have guest articles from a variety of contributors (including those on the right). Enough thread slide. Believe what you wish. So, in other words, you like Zero Hedge and, because of your personal investment in it, don't want to accept that it's not what you thought it was. And it's not a thread slide. Once again, we're discussing Russian propaganda, which they view as one prong of their military doctrine, and it's outlets. It's fully on topic.  Attached File |

I find it fascinating that a trained sniper is carrying a long barreled bolt action rifle with a suppressor and a high magnification scope as a “purely defensive” weapon. The trick is you have to yell 'theyre coming right for us!' prior to sniping to make it defensive:  How To Get Around Hunting Laws - SOUTH PARK |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By wwglen: That make is based on the prevailing winds and not actual winds. Sort of like the difference between climate and weather. Now Seymour Johnson AFB isn't too far from me and if the prevailing winds work, I will be safe based on that map. If the winds blow a little more south east than that maps show, I am toast. That's not even counting the Global Transpark airport located fairly close to me with one of the longest runways east of the Mississippi river. Main traffic is military planes of all types practicing their approaches.

Also curious as to how they'd get them to the black sea given Montreaux convention in play... |

They may be a leftist trash network, but they're covering this well. It's the one thing that the left and right can agree on in the last decade or more. Tucker has become a Fucking arrogant jackass, and his guests Fucking suck. CNN is covering this war properly. Fox just wants to bitch about politics and hunters laptop, and I'm not Fucking sorry.

A very insightful and cogent analysis of what's happening and why. Long read, yes. Too much for the meme lords here, maybe.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By trapsh00ter99: Won't those missile sites just be empty silos, as we would have launched everything once we detected a thousand incoming? Military bases yes of course, but missile sites seem like a wasted target. Not on a first strike, no. You try to get as much of the enemy nukes as you can to start off because that is the only chance you'll get to reduce some of the hurt that you just asked for. |
