I’m not saying his comments are pre-planned, but don’t mistake RT’s stance and the very loud, faux outrage of high profile Russian figures as anything other than the obvious attempt to court positive attention from pro-Russian westerners. We’ve literally watched Simonyan et al say just as horrific things on a weekly basis.

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.
Very much this. The only ceasefire will come after Crimea falls back into Ukrainian hands after almost 9 years.
Not often I say this, but those (30) Democrats can feck right off. Idiots.
Useful idiots?
"Yevgeniy Prigozhin, the Russian tycoon behind the mercenary group Wagner, personally told Putin that his military chiefs are mismanaging the war, U.S. officials said."
Two more arrested Saturday, charged with illegal photography. https://www.nrk.no/nordland/to-russere-pagrepet-i-nordland-1.16150870
Cops wanted them to be held in custody for 2 weeks, but the courts rejected that on Monday and said they'll have to be released. The picture is of a harbor, taken from a moving car, and the court argues it doesn't show anything you can't see on Google Maps. Further they say it's not visible that the harbor is military. The cops have appealed, so they're still being held.
Some people were also arrested for photographing the coast guard base in Sortland, I believe. The problem is that the coast guard base is right there in the harbour, with nothing at all protecting it from casual view. It's on Google Earth, you can find pictures of it on their official site, and there's a major bridge offering a perfect view of it.
The law is the law, but I think a lot of people have violated it in some of these areas. I might have taken a picture of a coast guard ship in Sortland myself for all I know, I can't remember.

Ukraine needs more modern air defense systems...
According to a statement from Ukraine government IRIS-T has a 90% success rate. That's much higher than what S-300 manages so far.

Shocking, modern missile works better than vacuum tube 70s rust bucket. Although for the times it was a really capable system and range wise it still kind of is. But everything Russian made suffers from significant reliability issues.
Smart move.
I expect they weren't paying any attention and assumed all the liberals were anti-war. It's a move that usually looks good to their constituents.
There are anti-war types on the left who this sort of thing may have been for. Oddly enough, there seems to be a degree of unanimity on the far left and far right about Ukraine.
Slovenian government responding to Russia.
Send in the 10th Mountain Div as relief pitching -- in their winter kit, who would know the diff?!

The letter calls for continued millitary assistance and an Ukrainian victory. Hardly anti war.
Yes, but you understand what I mean, right? Liberals tend to be anti-war, suggesting a cease fire will appeal to liberals in 19/20 cases. I suspect they didn't realize how it would land, or they wouldn't have said it, considering they immediately changed their minds.
Could have been for the other thread in general forum but anyway Tik Tok is not good for your health:
What do they have against the mustache part of the beard?

How stupid are they to reveal their position like that? Do they think partisans they dont know their public buildings and report them?
Some insane footage here.
Its a good point that often gets glossed over when assessing Russia's chances of actually winning the war. They can't win it on conventional terms because they no longer have the troops or logistics to do so. This is why we're seeing the drum beat about the possibility of a WMD or dirty bomb.
There's literally zero percent chance staff just released something like that months after the fact without consulting the candidate.
Absolutely. It’s stunning, blinding ignorance by Jayapal.
They should feel lucky that the ballot can't be changed now because they both deserve to be primaried and booted out of office in the next election cycle after such silly stunt.
Yet I still see a number of people losing their shit over the threat or still siding with Russia like the gullible fools they (99% hard "conservatives") are. Russia just can't afford to walk into that territory now matter how much drum beat they make because 1) we already mentioned how little tactical value there is in using anything nuclear and 2) any use of a dirty bomb would trigger unprecedented actions from other nations to punish Russia even harder.
Another perfect example of people/masses on both sides, thinking they are on the side of ''righteousness'' during a war or any conflict really.
