Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By sq40: https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2022/09/28/politics/nord-stream-pipeline-leak-russian-navy-ships/index.html First on CNN: European security officials observed Russian Navy ships in vicinity of Nord Stream pipeline leaks. European security officials on Monday and Tuesday observed Russian Navy support ships in the vicinity of leaks in the Nord Stream pipelines likely caused by underwater explosions, according two Western intelligence officials and one other source familiar with the matter. It's unclear whether the ships had anything to do with those explosions, these sources and others said -- but it's one of the many factors that investigators will be looking into. Russian submarines were also observed not far from those areas last week, one of the intelligence officials said. |

This is a commercial synthetic aperture radar satellite.
https://euromaidanpress.com/2022/09/29/ukrainian-crowdfunded-satellite-helps-nab-russian-war-equipment-disguised-in-forests/?swcfpc=1 “For obvious reasons, I cannot reveal all the details, but just imagine: in the first two days of the satellite’s operation, more than 60 units of military equipment were discovered, which the enemy tried to disguise in forests and behind other obstacles,” Ukraine’s Minister of Defense Oleksiy Reznikov said. “It was discovered because the ICEYE satellites collect information using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) technology. So far, all our expectations have been completely fulfilled. Satellites with SAR technology become especially relevant in autumn and winter when the weather is bad, cloudy, or snowy. There is no difference for them is it day or night. Therefore, the enemy will not hide.“ The Minister shared data about the operation of the satellite a month after it was purchased with $16mn that Ukrainians donated in a few days to Serhiy Prutyla’s foundation in August. Initially, the money was planned to be spent on 3 Bayraktar drones but after the Turkish Baykar company provided them for free, Prytula decided to buy a satellite. He is head of the second largest Ukrainian voluntary foundation supporting the army. |

Going back to the pipelines...
I read German news websites, and particularly like Cicero as it's unbiased and just good journalism. They had an interesting article about why the Russians are the likely culprit: https://www.cicero.de/aussenpolitik/nord-stream-pipeline-sabotage-russland-explosion-erdgas . You guys can shove it through Google Translate if you want. Here are the salient points:

Conscripts by law cannot serve outside Russia’s borders except with a declared war. So Putin STILL doesn’t have to declare war but gets to use up a whole conscript class. A lot of kids are going to die. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Mal_means_bad: Not dying of typhus? I think i'd find a group of guys who looked like they wanted to GTFO and offer to lead them towards the enemy, and i'd bring the biggest piece of white cloth i could find, and a very long stick to wave it from. I'd keep the white flag hidden until i'm out of sight of those i left behind. I'd not want to be in their shoes no matter what, but my calculus says surrender is the most likely way to survive. Going back home means death, and fighting means death, so going forward is the only option that seems like there is a chance of survival. Heck, if i didn't have a family i wanted to go back to, i'd put my dog tags on someone elses body on the way to surrender and become Private Ryan. :) |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By CenterMass762: Isn't Russia second world? I thought they were second world-6 and anyone aligned with them is second world by that alignment. Maybe the meaning has changed. In its original usage, yes - Western NATO allies and friendly developed countries were the first world, USSR and Warsaw Pact and their friendly developed countries were the second world, and any unaligned countries, particularly those with low economic development, were considered third world. Over time, the fact that most of the undeveloped third world countries were relative shitholes lead to any country that's a shithole, or backslid into those standards of living, became associated with "third world" instead. |

https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2022/09/29/7369607/ Ukraine is already solving the problem of Iran-made drones, and the Ukrainian Air Force has learned how to jam them. Source: Minister of Defence of Ukraine Oleksii Reznikov, in an interview with [Ukrainian media outlet] Interfax-Ukraine Quote: "We are already solving it [the problem of Iranian drones - ed.]. Yes, it is unpleasant, but not even unique air defence systems can guarantee 100-percent coverage of the sky. I am happy with the way our Air Force works, shooting down so many of these Shaheds. Our [soldiers] have learned to silence them. We turned to our partners, in particular, those who are afraid to give us weapons but still have good expertise. I told them: ‘We will give you their [Iranian drones’] parts; examine them and give us the suppression systems. And a number of countries that did not want to give [us] weapons became interested in this proposal." Background: Since September, the mass use of Iran-made kamikaze drones by the Russian army began in the south of Ukraine. Yurii Ihnat, spokesman for Ukraine’s Air Force, said that the Ukrainian military shot down Iranian-manufactured drones launched by Russia. I think that means the Israelis. |
