Russian special military operation in Ukraine #24

Cyrus the great wrote:I understand that there is an economic dimension to this war and that mobilisation would only put unnecessary strains on the Russian economy... but why can't Russia deploy at least 300k troops?

Because Putin is afraid of generating resistance in society. Nor is it a military problem. Those who say that this would put the rest of the forces at risk are absurd. For example, if the bitch Prime Minister Finland were to invade the border she would be nuked with nuclear weapons. Nukes nullify any attack from behind. That is why Russia must focus on Ukraine.

Putin wants to professionalize a war, do it surgically, make it a television show for the Russians, but that is no longer possible. It had no effect.
This makes me doubt the average Russian. Are you a patriot? is idiotized by the West? what do women think? Are you aware of what is at stake in Russia?


About the Russian economy. The sanctions are already there. They can't do any more damage. And the west is going to be badly damaged in winter

Now, the longer you take to organize an offensive, use junk instead of your best weapons, when you make stupid military mistakes, the war drags on and that affects the economy.

Still stumped at how Russia's withdrawal from Kharkov (with minuscule casualties) has sent so many pro-russians into absolute panic and hysteria, would be funnier if it wasn't so tragic.

Every withdrawal is a defeat.
3000 km these animals have gained. Karhov is a big city. What guys like you do is disguise military incompetence and try to find alternatives. It's been 3 months since Russia has made any progress at all.

If I follow your criteria, the USA Americans also withdrew from Afghanistan with minimal casualties. They occupied the country for 20 years, stole the resources and then left.
They didn't run like rats trying to export that farce of liberal democracy and because of the lack of preparation of their recruits (stupid obese teenagers and brown immigrants fighting for citizenship)

Not in panic anymore since I think I understand what they are trying to do 1st,  before escalating the issue like mobilization. I am upset how no one here is praising the Russians for flooding the dam by dividing Ukraine army to massacre them easier while the other group has to take a 200km detour around to get to the same place.

You can't be more wrong.
It sends a strong signal that the conflict is much more serious.
That affects the whole economy.
You are considering that from a human resources perspective, while we talk about consumption&investments.
In uneasy times, both get a serious cut in each household, private business, and daily operations, in general.
I have slashed the investments in my own company. My friends made personnel reductions or reassignments.
And this happens in countries formally not involved in the conflict, we just react for inevitable troubles in the EU economy.
Now imagine the mobilization in Russia, an officially made one. The very first would be reservists fleeing, just what we saw in Ukr.

I'd argue that we already know that the war is more serious. This denial is stressing the citizenery out.


I mean if they mobilized just their professional army. Which wouldn't require a draft.

Pinochet was a patriot. Of course he deserves respect. Except for the communism of his country.

Holy shit you are dumb.

I know someone, directly face to face, who suffered under Pinochet.  A Chilean who was a socialist. He was a university student at the time. Ended up in prison when he told his goons that he was a proud socialist that applied for schooling in Leningrad.  He was thrown in jail then exiled.

Don't talk about events you neither understand. By sounds of it, you don't understand much

It must have been a red propagandist. Allende was useless who led Chile to poverty and hyperinflation, who gave shelter to the terrorists who planted bombs in my country. A bastard that I only recognize one thing: he had the honor of committing suicide.

I ask your student friend. If in the Soviet Union you made propaganda for the return to the Church and the Russian empire, what happened? Did they take you out for coffee?

What was wage growth, rate of property onwership and access to utilities in chile during pinochet? Latin american capitalists are the worst. You'd sell out your own country's entire wealth in order to suck the US member. This is the result of the dysfunctional iberian system of oligarchic land ownership, where nothing mattered, except noble privileges and exploiting the landless majority to max.

BTW you stand for something peron was against.

I began to doubt Russia the moment I saw how the Ukrainians use drones to the fullest, and the Russians found out late. How can it be that a country with the technology and scientific resources of Russian has to buy second-hand drones from the Iranians. That is not propaganda. It is real that drones are a problem and you did not know it before starting the operation.
Didn't you realize they were important in modern warfare? You couldn't create an electronic warfare program? that sabotages the drones.
It reminds me of how the first world war started with the cavalry facing the machine guns. This is unacceptable for a country like Russia.

Inspector General of the Bundeswehr, Eberhard Zorn, quoted by Focus, claimed that there are no signs of any Ukro "counteroffensive".

The actions they have made are good enough to fight and reclaim a village rather than push the Russian army away.

Oh my oh my, who would consider such zrada

By the way, the guy holds the highest position in the german armed forces, there is no higher rank.

He will be in retirement soon. Very soon.

Oh yes because the Russians don't have more than 1500 Orlan-10 which are being used extensively since the beginning of the conflict

There are a lot of ppl on the fence and they don't know what the truth is about this war. The initial retreats were being successfully explained away by the Russia supporting side. But then boom, all of a sudden Ukraine just takes a ton of territory.

Anyone who was on the fence about this war has been lost now. All they have to do is look at a map. Propaganda wise , it's just an impossible task now to win anyone over who's unsure.

You admire Pinochet and you are an Argentinian!? Do you have Nazi memorabilia on your wall? Do you read Mein Kampf before bedtime just to calm your nerves so you could go to sleep?

I have a funny story to tell
A friend of mine, is a Pole naturalized in Germany.
His family is there like since the 60s, when having a german shepherd dog was enough to get citizenship
He was on a tourist trip to Argentine, settled by a well-known German tour operator.
The story happened in the 90s
He took his wife for a trip to visit "a German settlers' domain"
They were getting there by the river.
At the very end of the trip, they faced something that looked like a big fortress made of brick, concrete and wood.
It looked like the Atlantic Wall, only smaller, including small windows for shooters in a thick walls surrounding  
As soon as they walked through the gate, a proudly waving nazi banner entertained their approach.
The very last thing he dared to say to his wife, as she was with him, was "shut the **** up and don't open your mouth!" as she was a Pole either, but hardly speak any German as she just arrived a month earlier
That was a bloody nazi fort in the middle of nowhere, where little kids were "sieg heiling" at any corner.
Like in the bloody movies.

I'm going to take it lightly so you can see that I'm not bad and that I participate in the forum out of sympathy for Russia and because I want it to win this war.
Regarding Nazism, it is true that in Argentina they were never seen badly. Peron brought many Germans, but it is true that they came because there is a large community that dates back to the 19th century. There were also anti-Nazi Germans in Argentina.
However, the Germans here lived a few kilometers from Jewish and Slavic villages (there are many Poles, Slovenians, Russians). There were never any problems or confrontations. That happens because they are Argentines. They are patriotic and grateful. They are not fifth column. That is the advantage of nationalism over communism. The Nazi flag was next to the Argentine flag.

And another thing, those Nazis were real, not Azov clowns who have no idea about the history of National Socialism.

Especially when even pro-Ukrainian Telegram channels were making statements like this:
"Our source reports that hospitals and hospitals in Kharkov, Poltava, Dnipropetrovsk regions are overcrowded from the wounded and there are not enough places.
It has now come to the point that untreated military men are being discharged / expelled from hospitals and hospitals.
This causes indignation among the military personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine."

Peron was not a communist, Allende was.
The Chilean economy did nothing but grow in 1980 and 1990. Stability, inflation, employment. If I think your health and private education policy is wrong. A balance between public and private. I am not a neoliberal, but you need private property and free enterprise. The socialists repress this to spread corruption and to give alms to parasitic and unproductive sectors.

Our source reports that Zelensky/Yermak are unhappy that the current GUR and SBU DRGs in Crimea cannot bring “good news” in any way. Over the past three weeks, groups of various DRGs have made about ten attempts to sabotage military installations on the "peninsula", but they all failed.
Every failure for DRGs is a risk of being exposed. We have to immediately leave the Russian Federation.
The bank really needs a result and another high-profile informational victory. Therefore, groups are in a hurry to realize something loud.

It is a common fact.
Our ex-chief of general staff gen. Gocul was very informative in the first stages of the war, as already retired with general's pension could give a shit about the agenda

It does not seem to be ODAB John.
More probably, it is FAB-250SzN (ФАБ-250ШH). It is a 250 kg general purpose parachute retarded aerial bomb.

Shahed-136 saying "salo Uhryni!"

And another H(hy hy hy)ARM didn't make it



Greta asks how dare you, you naughty Russkie you!

Looking at the sat pics, Moscow is getting bigger and bigger.

Attack at some pontoon bridge, looks like 4 dishwashers were thrown at this one.
