I see those and I wonder what scenario could have evolved. There hasn't been much talk and I had heard the Ukraine drone base was bombed, but perhaps there are still many flying around. Those are some good size craters! Also would be an excellent opportunity for any NATO country with the same type of drones to do some quiet direct assistance |

That may explain why he's reportedly holding as much of 70% of his forces in reserve. He has to hold a reserve in case Poland enters the conflict,with or without NATO. He must also still pacify a nation that doesn’t want them there. The Belarusian people don’t want Lukašenko let alone Putin so he must effectively occupy that nation as well. I believe he thought this would be over in 12 hours,the West would accept a new puppet in Kyiv even if it wasn’t recognized -actually all the better to be unrecognized- and that would be it. Every hour that goes on increase the minuscule odds of Putin losing “we had to save Russians from those Jew Nazis” at home. If the dam breaks and Russians become unafraid to take to the streets against him he needs enough men to keep control. He is at a delicate balance. |

People run out of gas during many exercises. It happens. Dis I say that putin apologist?, ffs it does show the incompetence of an untrained and under supplied army that runs out of food, gas and even having yo stop and ask the enemy for directions.. buy go ahead and try to boost the image of your heroes. Lol Dude, shit runs out of fuel all the time. We have the same issues. Welcome to the real world where logistics is hard. .do we stop and ask the enemy first directions? Beg for food? Get lost? Ask the enemy how we are doing in the war? All that has happened. So go ahead and try explain away the embarrassment of the Russian forces Just spitballing here, but... I wonder how much Sun Tzu ol' Pooty read, and how it factors into the campaign so far. The Soviets were avid practitioners of maskirovka. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By delemorte: Im just hear for the lulz. I dont personally believe anything I'm being told and only have of what i can see. I dont trust any one to give me the unadulterated truth. you could tell me Russia is whipping that ass or Ukraine has kicked the commies ass and id still be dubious. ETA. Remember the spin we were told about Lynch and crew and how they bravely fought off their captors with malfunctioning rifles loading one round at a time cause they were malfunctioning.. Turns out they just got lost and surrendered with out a fight. As i said. I dont believe a GD thing. Both sides are exaggerating. Russia isn't doing as well as they wanted but they are still progressing. Ukraine is doing better than expected but still losing. |

There were plenty of reports weeks ago that Russia had brought in a large amount of ammonia gas to stage an event. They may be getting ready to use it. I hope not but don’t know how NATO/EU could fail to respond after the “red lines” on chemical warfare in Syria,to say nothing of Europe. |
