Don't hold your breath, the invasion isn't happening, sorry, guys. What kind of retard would invade a country where everyone is armed? LOL. Does Putin want to bog himself down in Ukraine like a retard? Huge waste of lives and resources - and what's the end result? It's all a game, and Xiden is looking like a retard, markets are fucked, & Putin is laughing his ass off.

Keeping tabs on me aren't you Ivan? Contract didn't mean shit to me money wise - it would have made Ukraine stronger, since I'm of Ukrainian descent and my lifelong goal was to see every piece of shit Russian communist out of Ukraine - either by car or by hearse.

Vehicles at the Novoozerne camp in NW Crimea have started disappearing, and sat imagery shows ships in and out of the dock there, suggesting embark operations.



In Novorossiysk, a column of naval infantry was seen heading to the port yesterday. Good osint work says they're probably from the Caspian Flotilla's 177th Naval Infantry Brigade.

The rest of the ships conducted live fires exercises this week including shore bombardments. A dozen or so were caught by satellite chilling of the NW coast of Crimea.

Neat. Thank you. I thought I remembered something about the vehicles, hadn't seen about the naval infantry.

The live fire shelling was war games ending today or tomorrow I thought. It'll be interesting to see what happens after today. I don't think they'll go home immediately, similar to all the troops in Belarus.

Biden's team needed something to divert attention from his failures (Covid, inflation, gas prices, illegal aliens, LGBTQ...).  His team seems to be succeeding with this Ukraine situation.

It's that foil closure on the cheap stuff. Once you open it, you pretty much have to drink the whole thing. There's no really convenient way to reseal it.

I just watched a German DW news interview with a historian from the left-wing Atlantic magazine who attended the multi-nation conference last night that Zelensky spoke at. Her politics don't really matter regarding her observation as to what all countries are in agreement of, and basically it's this:

1) all countries recognize that Ukraine is and wants to remain an independent western European country

2) all countries want to support and will support Ukraine in this struggle with Russia

3) no European nations will fight on Ukraine's side and Ukraine is on their own to fight Russia

4) all European countries will be rooting for the Ukrainan insurgents when the long internal fight to repel Russian occupation occurs.

Music to Putin's ears.

Exactly. And having the bodies of teenagers, "children," as they'll be called, not incorrectly, will be useful.

BTW, the new poll is a sadness of fail because the real answer is nobody has any fucking idea for sure except Putin, but regardless of his plans, in terms of shit like war and aggressive invasion and all that mess, you kind of are stuck. It very well could be a giant dog and pony show. Not at all unheard of. But it's really there and all real and stuff, so you sort of have to assume that there's at least a slight possibility that it might get used for real.

I mean, it's perfectly capable of doing that, since it's like, there and handy. You know what I mean, cuz?
