Long read here, but a lot of information. Lots of background info, written June 28, 2022, so not quite up to date. Author doesn't seem to be a fan of the US war machine.

Western Media says its directed at conservatives. Not so sure about that For a 70 year old guy seemed pretty sharp taking questions without a teleprompter for 4 hours. Didnt look sick either.

Yeukers advancing from the west. Rooskies have to hold the west bank or lose land line of support . . . . encirclement. It was in everyday on the WSJ and now nothing.

Took a look at Google map. I didnt realize Kherson is so close to the choke point for the Crimea. Wow. The Ukers have pushed back pretty far agin the Rooskies.

this is the Al Jazeera tracker map that they've been using. there is very little left of the donbass region that russia doesn't control.

looks like kharkiv never did fully topple but I believe it was more like Kyiv, where Russia initially went there just for pressure and chaos to push the line further west, making it easier for them to consolidate in the east which was their initiall stated goal: to support and defend the seperatist regions.

and maybe in another 5-10 years all the way to kyiv will count as seperatist regions :lmao:

but yeah, looking at that picture makes me agree with you that the Kherson Koncern will be an interesting winter

I don't know why this bothers me so much, I'm fine with trying to pronounce shit as it originally is (fucking brits anglicizing everything with their own spelling and pronunciation, ****s) and to fit that pronunciation into our alphabet
it ain't like we call russia by their romanized 'rossiya'
or afford the same unpronounceable spelling to anywhere else...

virtue signalling shoehorned into anywhere it fits

they registered the city domain name with that spelling in 2011.

0-UANIC 20110304124043

so it was them that changed the spelling.

nobody's business but the turks.
 
Avalon Hill board War Game "Stalingrad" circa 1969 and on there it's Kiev and the Dnieper River. Fuck everyone else. Like in game Risk where all Americans learned about their geography. How else would one know where Irkutsk or even the Ukraine is ? :laughing:

dunno, just copy the speeling from Al Jazeera maps, AJ uses lots of weird spelling on things.
 
The UKR .mil has captured a battalion worth of functional T-62M's.

That singular statement means a lot of things that do not speak positively to depth of equipment reserves or capability of RUS reserve forces.

Wut?

Which statement, yours, or someone else's you can't figure out how to quote?

It’s nice to see them waking up and casting off the shackles of modern day imperialism. Europe under the EU isn’t much different than the old French, German, or Austro Hungarian empires of old, just with slightly more autonomy on the surface, and economic methods being used for control rather than military.

Man, the Czechs sure as fuck remember 1968, not that long ago, so this is HUGE.

My paraphrasing of both an article and open source intelligence in a single sentence, but you knew that. Did you have anything of any value to add?

It’s like they already learned their hard lesson about socialism, and have no desire to give it one more try it again:lmao:

Why they’d ever want to side with the powers that handed them to to Soviets to begin with is beyond me

I did a stint (for 3 years) with a bunch of NATO countries on exercises, and the Czechs sure as fuck were their own people. Unlike most Euro pussies and blowhards.

They wouldn't talk (unless needed) to the Americans, British, Poles, or Germans, and some others.
