In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
the sooner they check hunter bidens laptop for details on the sabotage the safer we will all be
And Germany will pay for it.
We had our Russia related wall phase already
No problem, a new tax with a very German name e.g. Friedensbeitrag or Kriegsverhinderungszuschlag.
So effectively the opposite of the Friedensdividende?
Positive rumors continue to roll in from the Lyman area and a developing encirclement:
The real target is Svatove though with forces coming from north (Kupyansk) direction to close the gap, they’ll just bypass Lyman by completely encircling it as they did to many towns during Izium counteroffensive. The whole flank then may fold there really quickly from Luhansk side as there no real fortifications all the way to pre-2022 invasion line.
Surely that would leave them open to being flanked by however many Russians are still in Lyman?

Bragging about their war crimes…
I wouldn't think so, Ukraine is aware of the Russian troops there and actively works on encircling them. You can’t flank troops creating a cauldron around you, you can just try to break out of it.
About closing the sky:
This delivery (the first IRIS-T SLM ever, this isn't existing stock) was earlier expected for December, so there was a nice speed up in production. Ukrainian MoD also reported that their troops finished training on it, so it can be expected that this can be immediately put into action.

This is good stuff hopefully they can get an adequate number of these.
So far seven systems have been ordered, but it looks like only about pne per month can be delivered. That's not the biggest numbers, but as each system can cover an area about 40km across each can protect one big city or something like that.
More powerful air defense assets are needed, that’s an area where other states should step up as well.
Former US General Petraeus discusses logistics of maintaining an M-1 tank, and thus the hesitancy to give them to Ukraine, among other things.
18 HIMARS, I think Ukraine got like 16 right now so it would more than double it.
How many billions has the US already put in as aid? I am certain orange cnuty will start spewing about it soon if not already.
This is why the Ukrainians and Americans were hoping that the Germans would transfer their surplus tanks. M1s use a turbine engine rather than a normal engine. The Leopard uses a normal diesel engine.
Yes and no - Ukraine not only got HIMARS but also already several M270, which is it's big brother (same missiles, but 12 instead of 6 per salvo, and a tracked instead of a wheeled vehicle). So it doesn't double the capacity to fire GLMRS missiles

Isn’t this now just a proxy war to feed the war machine?
The "arguments" would be that its the tax payer footing the bill for something that doesn't even end up in the US army.
16 HIMARS have been donated by the US so far but UK, Germany and Norway have also delivered 9 M270 launchers in total.
NSFL Early war Hostomel, war crimes. I wonder what paxi thinks.
Scary to think this is before things turned south for the Russians. Their attrocities would have only got worse as the war went further against them.

This cnut Putin is actively trying to kill as many humans as he can before he dies. And all that for nothing. What a fecking moron.

Nord Stream gas leaks may be biggest ever, with warning of ‘large climate risk’
‘Colossal amount’ of leaked methane, twice initial estimates, is equivalent to third of Denmark’s annual CO2 emissions or 1.3m cars

Why the feck do they keep pumping gas in it...
I think there was just a load of gas in the pipes:
Nord Stream 2, which was intended to increase the flow of gas from Russia to Germany, reportedly contained 300m cubic metres of gas when Berlin halted the certification process shortly before Russia invaded Ukraine.
That volume alone would translate to 200,000 tonnes of methane, Cooper said. If it all escaped, it would exceed the 100,000 tonnes of methane vented by the Aliso Canyon blowout, the biggest gas leak in US history, which happened in California in 2015. Aliso had the warming equivalent of half a million cars.
What a puto. It's almost as if he embodies everything of the worst of boomers out there.
Lukashenko enjoying his most beloved hobby: Trolling Putin
If you read between the lines he is essentially saying: "Look Wladimir, I had some trouble, a few thousand people left, but they all realized they were wrong and came back. And now up to 50,000 of your people came into my country and I have to decide what to do with them, because everyone likes me and everyone hates you"

I don't know how many of you follow the channel of Niki Proshin. I have watched a few of his videos because he shows what is happening in St Petersburg. It seems he left Russia today.
Another blogger, Natasha, also left a few days ago.
The third Russian blogger I follow, "1420", is still in Russia.
