Interesting but not accurate... in reality the west has its hands on Putins jacket lapelle and is in no position to strangle Putin or Russia.... at the very worst the west could damage his jacket.... and the west is really not that big... it is more a case of the Wizard of Oz with some puny whimp pretending to be the all powerful Wizard, but it is all show... take away the US dollar and they are mediocre because their promises are empty and they never let their partners benefit... all the money and resources are funneled into the west.
I'd cordon it off, make sure its covered by air defences, and send some robots in to start unloading things. Haul things out day in day out, and supply them straight to the front
Don't let any good ammo go to waste
Very much agree, but use it all now... don't keep it for storage... take as many precautions as possible and just send it to the front and use it and monitor its use to make sure it is not booby trapped to explode in use.
I've read on Russian military forums calls to develop similar cheapo PGMs.
The irony is that Russian PGMs are already cheapo and also effective.
It is why I laugh at western talk of swarms of drones.... the west can't afford to make them cheap enough to be able to build a real swarm of drones... China and Russia and India could probably do it though... because they know how to make things affordable.
DATA: A cumulative total of U.S. military aid to Ukraine since Russia's Feb. 24 invasion.
February 25: $350 million
March 12: $550 million
March 16: $1.35 billion
April 1: $1.65 billion
April 5: $1.75 billion
April 13: $2.55 billion
April 21: $3.35 billion
The irony is that this is supposed to be bleeding Russia dry, when in fact the US MIC is going to make a fortune because all this money and equipment means money added to defence budgets and needs to be replaced by new stock... new stock that is generally two to three times more expensive than the stuff being replaced...
Don't agree on the overall dismissing of PCR,
PCR thinks the west will continue as it is... that article was written by a Russian who thinks the west is about to collapse... I tend to think the US is about to experience what the French and British empires have already had to endure.... their power and influence is about to diminish... in the case of Britain and France it was because the US took over, in the case of the US it will be a general rejection of the US dollar because they are using it as a weapon, which is destroying its power.
The west wont collapse but it wont be what it is now... the US wont be in charge... the EU might break up into regions with German dominated countries and French leaning countries and perhaps other groups as well, but no more blindly following Americas interests... ironically like the UK still does.
There are tons of corpses at each Ukr position. Russian tactic is based on overwhelming firepower, at any sign of resistance, they just call the cavalry.
The only reason why that is not falling apart is total censorship and nazi barrier troops.
And anyone not believing that.... we already had the eye witness accounts of western special forces who went in and got a taste and then ran away... if western special forces can't cope, how would conscripts do?
But then Ukrainian conscripts have never had artillery and air power on call like they were used to and their enemies never had artillery and airpower on call for themselves either.
If Kadyrov was the Russian president, none of this would have happened because the CIA and MI6 would have run their psychological profiles on him and realized (unlike Putin) that he is far too dangerous to play games of brinkmanship.
The huge irony is that the CIA and MI6 are dumb as **** and their profiles that told them they could play with Putin has led to the US getting hammered in the Middle East politically... even Saudi Arabia is talking about not using US dollars for oil... they got kicked out of Afghanistan and are not popular in Iraq or Syria, even Turkey does not like them very much. Putin got Crimea back for Russia and is in the process of killing lots of nazis, but like most nazis they are taking lots of innocents with them...
Various Russian thinkers over the years have actually proposed that the only way Russia wins its existential battle versus the "West" is for Russia to become the economic, intellectual, and technological capital of the Muslim world.
Russia wins the battle by showing the rest of the world that the way of the west is a dead end... the west will never let any part of the third world join it as an equal so the rest of the world has no future with the west. With Russia and China however, they won't hold the rest of the world down and are not afraid of trading with countries that are growing and developing too... it is the west that contains and isolates rivals and threats.
Claiming Russia needs to lead the Muslim world is just the west thinking Orthodox Christians are weak or don't exist or are another threat... religion really does not come in to it. But Russia has proved it can talk to its enemies and get results... unlike the west it appreciates peace and uses war only as a very last resort.
Imagine that world with Russia aligned with the fastest growing demographic in the world (and in the EU) and you have a nightmare scenario for the men behind the curtain.
Russia is not opposed to any religion... except the made up ones like Scientology...
FAB-5000 Laughing Laughing Laughing
We need this:
FAB-9000
The Tu-22M3 should be able to carry three FAB-5000s, one on each wing pylon and one each in the internal weapon bay, but the FAB-9000 was traditionally carried internally by the Tu-16, which has an enormous internal weapons bay designed to carry the huge early nuclear bombs.
Tu-16s were used in Afghanistan for the purposes of dropping FAB-9000s which had to be modified to add fuses to make them explode more uniformly... I seem to remember about 7 or 8 fuses to detonate the bomb properly.
In a place like Ukraine where there is less rock and more topsoil such a bomb turns the dirt into liquid so underground tunnels liquify and fill in and then solidify... not a nice way to go really.
I would love to see Kadyrov as President of Russia. And because he's muslim it would show how tolerant Russians are and multicultural. It would make the heads in the West explode lol. It would probably open up even more business with the muslim world as well, which would be good for Russia.
That is quite sad. First of all why do you think electing a muslim to president just because they are muslim is every going to be a good thing? Second who gives a **** about what the west thinks... electing anyone except Putin in the last twenty years would have pleased the west... does that make it worth doing?
The west wants a weak Russia and they don't care about human rights or democracy or freedom of religion, they just want Russia to be weaker and less competitive, so electing a cat to Russian president would please them, but what would that do for Russia? They don't care... but Russia would be weaker so they will be happy.
Russia needs to realise the west is their enemy... if they werent sure them currently sending weapons to nazis in the Ukraine to kill Russian soldiers and murder ukrainian civilians is sending that message too... but thankfully the west only represents a tiny percentage of the world today so Russia can actually ignore that portion of the world that wants to brutally murder them and focus on creating relations with the rest of the world, which is also eager to grow and develop but has been prevented from doing so because the west controls most international organisations and structures.
Russia and China and India and the rest of the world need to create alternative structures to operate for the rest of the world to promote growth and development that can't be misused as a weapon by the west.
The west in it current form is evil.
Russia can do business with the Muslim world without converting religion... or should the next Russian president be Chinese?
