How come every time there is a shooting, they want to take away the guns from the people who didn't do it?

I'm hoping that the "munitions for aerial vehicles" in the most recent aid package are the DPICM bomblets the Ukrainians asked for a while back. Dropping those from drones onto Russian armor would be a nice capability for them to have.

Very possibly part of the "Franken SAM" project. Posted here back in January. https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/sea-sparrow-rim-7-surface-to-air-missiles-are-headed-to-ukraine I got a theory that will make you cross-eyed. In the BUK TELAR destruction Twitter post a few pages back, Ukrainian War Tracker alleges UA is using the TELARs as stand alone systems because of the lack of battery radars and the TELs are sitting idle. What if, and this is a big what if let me tell you, they've figured out a way to jury-rig the Sparrows onto the TELs and integrate those TELs with the Skyguard system(s) that Italy is sending/has sent. Skyguard already works with RIM-7/AIM-7. Poland already did the Sea Sparrow/Buk integration groundwork. How different is RIM from AIM? |

Ukraine has superiority in fires, IAD, tanks, IFVs, eventually Jets. It's all over but for when Russia finally realizes it. Yep. None of the math works in Russia’s favor. Their one last advantage was more manpower but the last mobilization has fallen far short. Putin is working hard to avoid talk of a general mobilization because he knows it will not work. The urbanites are NOT going to line up as meat sacks to defend the border provinces, let alone defend “Russian claimed” territories in Ukraine. Now it is just pride and Putin’s self-preservation the keeps this war going on. |

Crazy! No one can complain about aid to Ukraine when we are sending billions to China and Russia! WTAF??!!
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/us-govt-sent-1-3-billion-china-russia-gender-equality-cat-experiments-wuhan-lab-research Excerpt: The analysis revealed that millions of taxpayer dollars have been given to, among others, a Chinese software developer for military tech support, a Russian health insurance provider that has since been sanctioned and Chinese agriculture companies. And it showed the federal government gave $2 million, more than previously reported, to the Chinese state-run Wuhan lab studying bat coronaviruses. "Washington’s continued spending is so out of hand, it is losing track of Americans’ hard-earned taxpayer dollars, but I am creating accountability for every penny," Ernst said in a statement after releasing the report. "It is gravely concerning that no one in Washington can actually account for millions sent to Russia and China for pointless projects," the Iowa Republican continued. |

Why not a 12 ga. auto shooting flechet darts? The drones can't be very tough. Darts made of DU should have almost a 200 yard range if you start them off around 1400 fps. Sure would seem easier than getting a hit of a AR or AK.

Way too trusting of Milley. I've hated him for years. Wanat, the 7.62 battle rifle and NGSW debacles, his actions towards China during the end of the Trump presidency (I hate Trump, but what Milley did was borderline treasonous), and his overall demeanor rub me the wrong way. |

Exactly this. And he seems way too much of a publicity whore. A general calling Chinese leader behind and counter to ANY president should have been lined up for a firing squad. The military does NOT over-rule the civilian Commander. Ever. |

How is it rocket science or even news to recognize the threat you have lived under for 75 years? Yes 2022 was the year. What you feared has happened. You fell asleep while others were manning the ramparts. Don’t stumble around groggy trying to lead people when you barely can keep your eyes open. Shut up and follow those in front.

View Quote Macron's rhetoric has been awful thus far. He's argued in favor of giving Putin off ramps after Putin was given multiple of them and only chose to escalate, he's said that aid to Ukraine needs to be "reevaluated" if the counter offensive doesn't succeed, and various other idiocies. I really do hate that guy, although I don't think he's comprised like many in German government are. Instead, I think he's just French... |

We publish a request from the editors of the ECU 11 channel and the answer:
Hello, Evgeny Viktorovich. Hello, colleagues from the press service. I have three questions: 1) Where is the point of the escalation of the conflict allowed by the West? 2) How do you think the conflict will end? 3) How then to shake hands at summits and establish trade and relations with those who send weapons against and impose sanctions against the inhabitants of Russia? We publish a comment by Evgeny Prigozhin: "1. I believe that the point of the escalation of the conflict allowed by the West will soon be approaching, and this will be a serious full-scale conflict in which we will have to defend ourselves, if we analyze how things are going now. 2. The conflict, I am sure, will not end with the capture of Kyiv, again, analyzing the situation in which the current state of affairs is. 3. We won't have to shake hands at summits for a long, long time, because, as I've said many times, we need to understand that in terms of communicating with everyone else, we will be like North Korea. In terms of living standards, of course, we will be an order of magnitude higher, because we have everything we need on the territory.” https://t.me/Prigozhin_hat/3536 |
