Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By BerettaGuy: Harvest of Despair (Holodomor) The 1933 Ukrainian Famine Documentary (7 - 12 million Ukrainians starved to death in the largest genocide by famine in world history) - This is on BitChute, YouTube has it but it is only viewable with age verification. I don't get the members here who don't understand genocide. The Holodomor was not the only mass genocide to erase Ukrainian history, ethnicity, language, and culture by Muscovy/"Russia", there were many more going back several hundreds of years. They need to also study "Russification". Stalin specifically targeted people that were self sufficient and stole their food, giving it to the far more controllable and allied citizens of Russian cities. He made scrounging for dropped grain in their own fields a crime punishable by death. Then he just let winter do it's thing. History does not remember the Holodomor anywhere near as well as it should. |

Usually private money is used to pay for the the removal of hazardous materials and the cost of the sinking. The beneficiaries are sports fisherman, predator and game fish and scuba/free divers and the local industries that support those activities. See my sigline |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By BerettaGuy: Russian Army Will Be 'Annihilated' if Putin Nukes Ukraine: Borrell https://www.kyivpost.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/000_9mu3e7.jpg High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrel. By Alisa Orlova for Kyiv Post Published Oct. 13 at 4:57 pm EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell warned Moscow on Thursday, Oct.13, that its forces would be "annihilated" by the West's military response if President Vladimir Putin uses nuclear weapons against Ukraine. "Putin is saying he is not bluffing. Well, he cannot afford bluffing, and it has to be clear that the people supporting Ukraine and the European Union and the Member States, and the United States and NATO are not bluffing neither," Borrell said at the opening of a Diplomatic Academy in Brussels. "Any nuclear attack against Ukraine will create an answer, not a nuclear answer but such a powerful answer from the military side that the Russian Army will be annihilated." Fears that Moscow could use a tactical nuclear weapon in Ukraine have grown after Putin issued veiled threats as he staged the annexation of four occupied regions in the face of loses on the battlefield. NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg has warned Russia it faces "severe consequences" if it launches a nuclear attack on its pro-Western neighbor. "There would be a sharp response almost certainly drawing a physical response from many allies, and potentially from NATO itself," a senior NATO official said Wednesday. But the alliance has stopped short of threatening to use its nuclear arsenal to respond as non-member Ukraine is not covered by its self-defence clause. Gen. Petreus said the same thing last week. In my mind Putin wouldn't use nukes until that's already happened. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By PM4E: Are wooden props commonplace in drone technology is this an Iranian innovation? I would think a wooden prop would be more low tech but easier to turn them out. A single operator could feed several of the wooden duplication lathes (19th century tech) and turn out a lot of them. Just a guess, I am no expert, but I have seen wooden duplication lathes operate (at Silver Dollar City) and they are pretty slick. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By HIPPO: HIRM-2 was, allegedly, like 6 months from IOC back in Feb ‘22. 500 kg warhead. ATACMs is like half that in terms of warhead size. I’m still leaning on the SVBIED method given the size of the damage. One day the truth will come out. Looks like Chuck is all-in on the missile theory.
It would need a much bigger warhead to do what it did to that bridge. I think 2000Kg from the look of that explosion. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Circuits: The west does not have to use nukes to annihilate Russian forces. That's kind of the differentiator between the east and the west. That is true. But the assholes in the Kremlin dont care about "Russian forces", but they do care about their own asses. They should be made to fear getting nuked in their 5-Star bunkers where they are now laughing, eating caviar and giving zero fucks about their troops. Trump, like he told the taliban, would let them know that THEY are the #1 target of ANY retaliation. |

Russian Army Will Be 'Annihilated' If Putin Nukes Ukraine: Borrell Russian Army Will Be 'Annihilated' If Putin Nukes Ukraine: Borrell By AFP - Agence France PresseOctober 13, 2022 ADDS Stoltenberg comments EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell warned Moscow on Thursday its forces would be "annihilated" by the West's military response if President Vladimir Putin uses nuclear weapons against Ukraine. "Putin is saying he is not bluffing. Well, he cannot afford bluffing, and it has to be clear that the people supporting Ukraine and the European Union and the Member States, and the United States and NATO are not bluffing neither," Borrell said at the opening of a Diplomatic Academy in Belgium. "Any nuclear attack against Ukraine will create an answer, not a nuclear answer but such a powerful answer from the military side that the Russian Army will be annihilated." Fears that Moscow could use a tactical nuclear weapon in Ukraine have grown after Putin issued veiled threats as he staged the annexation of four occupied regions in the face of losses on the battlefield. NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg has warned Russia of "severe consequences" if it launches a nuclear attack on its pro-Western neighbour. "We will not go into exactly how we will respond but of course, this will fundamentally changed the nature of the conflict," Stoltenberg said. "Even any use of smaller nuclear weapons will be a very serious thing." A senior NATO official on Wednesday said that use of a nuclear weapon by Russia in Ukraine would result in "almost certainly drawing a physical response from many allies, and potentially from NATO itself". The alliance has stopped short of threatening to use its nuclear arsenal to respond as non-member Ukraine is not covered by its mutual self-defence clause. The US and NATO has so far steered clear of intervening militarily in the Ukraine conflict for fear of sparking a catastrophic nuclear conflict with Moscow. "The fundamental purpose of NATO's nuclear deterrent is to preserve peace and deter aggression and prevent coercion against NATO allies," Stoltenberg said. "Circumstances in which NATO might have to use nuclear weapons are extremely remote." |

There is a movie about exactly that. "Mr. Jones" Very strangely, it was up on Netflix for about a week (where I saw it) but now it's been taken down. It seems...strange it suddenly disappeared after being in the top 10 and is "Not available in your country." Ugh, weird to say the least. Anyhow, it's a pretty haunting movie in the same vain as Schindler's List, but it is worth a watch. Some of the scenes are just downright horrifying, but I think they did their best to depict the real suffering of starvation and how bad Stalin was. |
