Tanks which fire thermobaric rockets have also been spotted moving towards the Ukrainian border. Russia gearing up to commit war crimes

We can reasonably predict that Russian state sources, Ukrainian state sources and American state sources are all lying in all their public statements. At least US intel has been relatively vague, its not backing up the grandiose claims of the Ukrainians who have shoved 3500 Russian POWs into rockets and launched them into the phantom zone.

Russian TOS systems were already spotted yesterday (near Kharkiv) and probably entered on day one.

The longer this drags out the harder they will start hitting.

They suggested that Ukraine should put down their weapons which would have ended this unequal fight with minimal bloodshed but the West (Zelensky is a Western puppet) seems determent to arm even inexperienced civilians so they can give their lives for nothing.

This is British intelligence. Vague and likely to be accurate

to be fair, it looks like the ukranian regulars have finally put something looking like a defense together

They give their lives for a free Ukraine.
If they wouldn't care about their nation, they would have given up fighting 2 days ago.

The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his. ~ George Patton.

Of course Putin doesn't care, he's a megalomaniac.

We can afford the pain of our sanctions, as to how long Russia can, that depends on whether we actually hit them where it hurts: SWIFT and gas/oil.

Europe is far too reliant to hurt them on gas and oil. Locking them out of SWIFT would result in higher prices of gas and oil too, but it would be much more manageable than cutting off their main supplier entirely

Sanctions are long term. We have to diversify energy supplies away from Russia before taking that step, it'll take 10+ years but it'll definitely happen now

Apparently I overestimated Russian armor quite a bit. They're getting smoked.

It is sad that that the justification for all this from putin to his own people are that ukraine is full of gay nazis.




The whole thing is on social media, no need for news. People can just see what is happening. Plenty of Ukrainians in social media just showing the russian conscripts coming to Ukraine to murder people.

Russians not so much, since memes are illegal there and you will go prison for posting many memes in russia. Weird world to advocate for my guy.

Russian military conscripts aren't the most motivated either. Did you know they use sexual violence and rape as discipline in the russian army? The gay nazi stuff is projection.

I would think you of all posters in this forum would have an accurate assessment of Russian armor.
