Armenia still catching hands over not demilitarising or vacating areas it occupies, despite signing agreements to do so and missing all deadlines. Maybe they can burn down a few more villages/forests or mine a few more roads or houses before they get pushed out again. Learnt well from their Russian masters.

Who knew that continual mining or sabotaging of your neighbor's land would lead to consequences? Russia will be hesitant to step in because Turkey is already involved and Azerbaijan is also heavily armed as a result of long cooperation with NATO. The Azeri military already pasted massive amounts of old Russian equipment during the NK conflict. Sending more Soviet relics won't help.

Who do you think is prolonging this war?



One country
I saw that Greece was getting worried that Turkey was getting some plans together. I'll see if I can find it. There was also this:

Fuck all gonna happen between Greece and Turkey, these are diplomatic disputes. Not relevant to this thread, why not make new ones to discuss them in the correct context?

So, has the success of the past weekend convinced NATO to throw in even more on Ukraine's side? UA can legit set Crimea as the final goal, if their forces stay supplied.
 
FunkMiller FunkMiller I'm good! I'm on holidays in fact.

I also don't want to post as the situation is ongoing fast, better wait a week or two and see where the lines will be drawn then when the momentum on both sides subsides.

I did say Ukraine and western world have a chance to do everything to get a quick win and it is working out so far, right?

You also said this, which should be framed on your profile after the last week events:
So much nonsense in this thread from same posters who only quote Ukrainian propaganda sites. Is this thread even valuable?

Here are a few truthbombs to chew on.

1. Ukraine can't take back shit. Right now they are getting kicked out of their most fortified positions in Donbass and losing 500-1000 men per day. They cannot hold territory or frontline. And people here are talking as if Ukraine has already won everything back and ask about invading Russia as a serious question. In what universe are you living in?

Here is a serious question: when do you think Zalyzhnyy upends Zelensky, which parts of Ukraine will Russia annex in addition to what they have ( Dnipro, Kharkiv, Odessa?) and which parts will be sold to Poland?

2. Kherson bridge is standing and has a backup built right next to it. Russia moved thousands of troops there for defense and potential strike at Mykolaiv if Ukraine does another stupid artillery rotation.

This offensive has been spoken about for months - you think Russia wasn't preparing? It's be the stupidest plan ever. I'd rather believe Ukrainians find another region to strike, preferably the one that doesn't include shelling a nuclear power plant.

3. The only success Ukraine is having is spinning losses into media wins by manipulating the info space. Case-in-point: Russia bombing it's own cities (and mining Donetsk???) or Zaporizhya power plant (?). What doesn't stand to scrutiny to anyone with half a brain is actually taken seriously by many people.

My advice, get some perspective and stop eating one-sided nonsense from Kyiv independent and ISW. Take no facts from Russia or Ukrainian command declarations either, although they probably say truth about strike areas and take ownership of major successes. Otherwise this thread is just political propaganda spewing nonsense.

Last time I was here people told me that it's over and Russia will lose at Severodonetsk. I'm sure same goalpost moving armchair generals will come out of woodworks now to say it's over at Kherson. And when Russia takes Sloviansk they will keep saying the same.

Wouldn't call that brainwashing, but trying to sort out everything and be supportive. That's a bleak call, and dude is clearly dying or about to die. She wants him to get off the line and go to medical support, but they are slapping him to pain meds and pushing him back out there - it's barbaric.

Don't get me wrong, it's clear he's there for the wrong reasons - not one of those randos pulled off the street we've seen - but the human aspect of this war is really coming into focus now.

Russia needs to get the fuck out now - or this is one of the 1000 calls like this.

I can't help feeling sorry for that soldier even if he is an Orc. Sent do die for no reason by a mad man. Humans are so sad and stupid...

Same boat here. At start of this war I was feeling sad for the fodder being (as I know Russians and people who have served in RA) sent there but now I have no sympathy. They see and know what they are doing there. Leave the Ukraine and if be shoot your own officers. Mutiny or surrender. If not then be killed.

War is hell. I’d wager it’s a bad move to start one. I feel bad for this guy and his family, assuming he’s not one of those that committed atrocities.

Now wait up fella's, he did say he'd check back in a month, he's got around 24 hours...
Those Polish mercs may be buying that town they've taken and planning on buying more
Ukraine may fold completely and lose the 6000 square KM of land they've just retaken
Zelensky may be fired and replaced by someone else
Were just not seeing the truthbombs yet

It could happen! I'm defrosting my crow right now just in case

Do you think for one second he isn't at least aware of the way Russian soldiers have been treating the Ukrainian civilians in the towns they occupy? Hell, it seems to be standard operating procedure for all of them by the witness accounts we've been receiving. Fresh news already out of Kharkiv oblast about execution pits being discovered in the liberated towns.

If he was fighting inside ruzzia, sure. But I mean, it's been six months fighting for nothing but money in a foreign country making life and death hell for others . It should be plenty of time to figure out what's going on.. He also still calls Ukrainians Khokhols. So I find it kinda hard to feel sorry for the guy.
