It was bad enough that FDR was a an idiot in foreign affairs. But now after another 80 years of experience with Soviet/Russian lies and duplicity we still have people thinking the same Pollyanna fluff.

Harry Hopkins was one of those Soviet Agents. The FDR and Truman Administrations were riddled with Soviet Agents. The group that became the NSA didn’t tell Truman about the VENONA decrypts because they weren’t sure Truman wasn’t one too.

Good to know NATO is on the ball gather baseline radiation data and keeping an eye on things. Would love to see flights of B2, F22, F35 swarming the skies of Ukraine while everyone “thinks about it.”

More and better video on Makiivka blast.

This vid is pretty hot shit. Like showing both drone recon and then also the drone right there close enough to almost see who dropped their Marlboro in the wrong place.


We are publishing a video of cotton that happened in a warehouse with BC yesterday in the temporarily occupied Makiivka.

katsaps placed a large warehouse with ammunition for anti-aircraft guns in the yard of an unfinished residential area. Yesterday, due to smoking in this warehouse and non-compliance with safety rules, this warehouse blew up. Quite by accident, our drone flew past 🌚

Special thanks to the local residents who highlighted the location of the warehouse and who are waiting for the return of Ukraine 🇺🇦

I’m surprised western leaders have been totally silent on Russia using WWI type of chemical weapons. Is there ANYTHING that Russia could do that would bestir the sleepy heads in the West? Are we that apathetic? Or are we skeerd of DA ESCALATION 😱😱😱 ?

Not even worth a strongly worded memo?!

This supports the idea that RuAF are much lower on shells and tubes than the pre-war inventories would suggest. Pulling back from the south side of Bakhmut!!!!

I once offered a suggestion that if someone is being a trollish shit poster, they can give an "ARE YOU SURE you want to post that?" Followed by a mandatory security check upload of a picture of yourself at that moment when you shit post.

I'm 1000 percent sure most are fatties who are naked or at a minimum wear thick glasses and are pimply incels.

But that's just me and a terrible idea as always.

I figure if someone wants to be an ass, why not make sure it's not a bot or Orckiah troll farm.

They want to double that again in 6 months.   Multiply that across other production plants making war materials here and in Europe.

It was very accurate whatever it was.  Range from the front lines is pretty short so I would guess an Excalibur round touched it off.

A demining charge is used by Russians to strike at Ukrainians in the Kreminna forest.
It seems part of the blow was absorbed by the water.

Keep this post in mind next time the Russians claim “tHeY’rE gEnOcIdInG tHe PeOpLe Of DoNeTsK”. They stored a shitton of rockets right next to a hospital, knowing that if it was targeted they could claim Ukraine was targeting a hospital.

I wonder, would amnesty condemn this?

Laser guided Russian artillery round, but it's 155mm.  Range is about 25km, and it needs someone to keep a laser on the intended target.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krasnopol_



KM-1M Krasnopol-M2, a further development based on Krasnopol-M, is a 155mm artillery projectile designed to engage armored targets. It uses a semi-active laser (SAL) guidance system in the terminal phase of its trajectory.

We do have a lot.  And the facility also upgrades the older variants to later versions for ourselves, and export customers.   I had mentioned thousands of pages ago we needed to set it up so Ukrainians could be trained on these and to have at least the older versions that we were putting into storage set up to give to them in the numbers they wanted.  This was because all of Europe was having trouble sending multiple variants of Leopards.  

I was thinking we would send them 300 M1A1's from the Marines and pour on the Leopards later.
