The Russia - Ukraine Conflict

[Professor Emeritus]

That dude Rhakim got all in his feelings & negged me after being called out for posting garbage , go back to hl where they think you are saying something worthwhile dude . You said you were tired please take that break before you have a mental breakdown !

If someone does nothing but insult me without even being able to mount an argument, then they get negged. After I post a carefully formed series of facts, what's the point of yelling, "You're stupid, idiot!" if you can't even counter my facts?

And begging me to leave just makes you look submissive, at least try to mount an actual response without so transparently showing my presence intimidates you.

Where did he manufacture "1:7" disadvantage from? Ukraine only has 215,000 military personal total and I'm sure not all of them are currently engaged with Russian forces.

His numbers seem kind of bullshyt. By comparison, USA sent 180,000 troops in its initial invasion of Iraq, while Iraq had 540,000 active forces and 650,000 reserves. So the "3:1" ratio is either clearly not meant to be applied to a nation's entire military count, or it is bullshyt in the modern context.



Edit - yo I just looked this guy up and he literally writes for Russia Today.

He was the marine equivalent of an Army S-2 officer… I feel like there’s a requirement to write a tell all book in the department of the navy contracts.

Seems to be a regular from him, with the distance. Might be COVID related

It's because he's 5'4" and so sensitive about his height that he refuses to be photographed in any way that makes him look like a hobbit.

When standing he wears lifts in his shoes and tries to position himself to look taller.

Left a little short: Putin left red-faced as Kremlin photo gaffe exposes his small height

Drone?

There are rumors that there are still some of the large Turkish drones left, after one of the storage bases were bombed a couple of days ago.

Also saw a clip translated from a russian…


Message 1:
"Lads, hello all. I am here with Rusik, Carev, Max Belov and youngsters. What can I say. Everything going is fking crazy, lads. 3 squads BTGRs were sent to Ukraine. 1st BTGR was completely fked. 2nd BTGR is holding up but no idea what state they are in. 3 BTGR: Zampolit(low ranking commander) left with 4-5 Motalygas and a few Urals(vehicles). No idea what state they are in. 
"
Message 2:
"Then, yesterday night 60 guys on Urals and Kamazes arrived from BTGR 1. They are saying only them left from the whole BTGR. Combat(some sort of commander) of the first battalion of infantry has been captured. In our brigade there are lots of 200s(dead). The Vahta(transport) that we used to get from Kursk to Belgorod says he was ferrying 200s the whole day yesterday. The driver is fking shocked. He is our fellow Dagestani. What else can I say."
Message 3:
"Commander of 25th brigade Arkhipov - 200th. The 3rd rota was destroyed in the very first minutes. 25th brigade has been devastated, reduced to zero, nothing left of them. The 95th brigade is said to have been destroyed as well. Taman division too. From all of the tank battalions that we have the battalion of Petrov did the best, with combat(commander) Petrov. He was shielding infantry with tank. He destroyed at least 6 enemy vehicles. 
"
Message 4:
"Summing it all up, lads. The preparedness of these soldiers is terrible. They don't have proper helmets, vests, the uniform is terrible, they are dressed like homeless. The conditions are terrible. I can understand the war condition - ok, but the uniform is just nowhere. And these guys are sent to fight people who were preparing for 8 years to fight us. Ukraine was preparing Azov fighers for 8 years to fight us. And all these Private Milittary with international fighers from black to indian. The guys are saying they saw this all. They are being shot at from all sides and they don't know from where."
Message 5:
"The battalion of SOBR and Rosgvardia, basically burned to the ground. Medical Vehicle(Ural) were 6 were sleeping got hit - they all burned alive. Out of 40 SOBR soldiers 6 lived, the rest got burned down. RosGvardia got hit with RPGS from all sides, no one left alive. Other RosGvardia battalions who were on their way in turned back and said they won't be fighting. It is fking hell. What we have left is just laughable. It is Ural and Kamaz. And 4 tanks but they can't shoot. It is fking hell lads. It is a massive failure. "

The Kharkiv incursion seems to have been repelled.

Mariupol is encircled by now.

What about Kyv?

That dude Rhakim got all in his feelings & negged me after being called out for posting garbage , go back to hl where they think you are saying something worthwhile dude . You said you were tired please take that break before you have a mental breakdown !

These HL posters should go back there, especially Nap's spamming ass.

Ukraine has literally never sent forces to Africa under its own control. Its soldiers have only gone to Africa under UN control, under UN peacekeeping missions that were approved by the rest of Africa just as much as they were approved by European nations. I haven't heard any stories of the Ukrainian forces "murdering Africans" there, but perhaps you have some citations?

I looked up the three conflicts you mentioned. Ukraine isn't even listed as a top-10 contributor to peacekeeping forces in Congo, but South Africa, Morocco, Tanzania, and Malawi all are, and Senegal was the #1 contributor of police forces. Their involvement in Somalia and Sierra Leone appear similarly miniscule, just a couple hundred troops so they could say they fulfilled their UN obligations, always fighting alongside many more African troops.

At this point you're just throwing shyt against the wall to deflect for your right-wing masters. It's frankly embarrassing.

No. You shilling these cacs is embarrassing. But you gotta play the party line.

Let's talk about how every one of the 200 plus human rights cases brought up against the Ukraine in human rights courts has resulted in them being found guilty..

Lests talk about the hundred thousand Ukrainians who joined the SS during WW2 to murder civilians in the Ukraine. Lining then up in death pits.

But ok,

Let's act like I'm embarrassing myself by saying let them fight.

An American Economics Professor take on the sanctions impact on Russia...

Sanctions also decrease the amount of oil Russia is selling. Also in the long term, the EU is now committed to getting themselves off Russian oil which is not good for them.

 

[Vandelay]

So while were talking about what's specifically happening in this conflict. what do we think could deescalate and ultimately end this conflict?

Is it the removal of the existing Ukrainian government?
Is it a stalemate?
Ukraine ceding Donetsk and Luhansk formally to Russia?
Is it Putin getting clapped by his inner circle?

 

[50CentStan]

The propaganda being spread about this is so ridiculous. If you believe more Russian troops died in 5 days in Ukraine then Afghanistan over 10 years you're an idiot

 

[Professor Emeritus]

No. You shilling these cacs is embarrassing. But you gotta play the party line.

Are you referring to this?

"As of 17 January 2013 Ukraine lost all of its 211 cases at the European Court of Human Rights.[15]"

In 2013 Ukraine had a Russian puppet government in charge. You're literally rooting for them to go BACK to the government that lost those human rights cases.

I've never seen someone so consistently embarrass himself.

Israel will buy it for pennies on the dollar just like they were buying it from isis

Didn't realize he wrote for Russia today. But with so much ridiculous propaganda from Ukraine maybe it's good I posted the other side.

I'm rooting for picking a side because cacs gonna cac
