Topic: Russian Invasion of Ukraine[In Progress] - page 114. (Read 73622 times)

Well, finally. You finally want to uphold Russian law by picking on people smoking in a Russian no-smoking zone.

People go there to visit. From Tripadvisor, "Things to Do in Murmansk" - https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=Murmansk&ia=web.

Murmansk is close to Polyarny, a legendary maritime base of Ruzzia, pretty much near the Artic, in the Karelia Peninsula (where most of the nukes of Ruzzia are deployed by the way). Murmansk region is home to some nuclear submarine forces of Ruzzia, also of spent nuclear fuel and both working and "out of order" equipment.

Today, someone smoke in the wrong place in Murmansk according to some yet unconfirmed news.

Don't you even know what war is about? War is about caring and protecting your country. Soldiers don't like fighting and dying. But at the base of it, they do it because they care, just like Putin cares by ordering them to fight to the death if necessary.

Zelensky does even worse with his soldiers and people. Ukraine doesn't have soldiers who are fighting and dying for Ukraine. Rather, they are fighting and dying so the US doesn't have to enter a war to steal Russia from the Russians. Can you even understand the difference?

As for destroyed equipment, Russia has captured so much Ukraine (US/Nato) equipment that the little Russia might lose in a particular battle is essentially as nothing. The problem for Russia is, the US and Nato have been sending old, out dated equipment to Ukraine. So, in the long run, it is essentially useless to Russia.

But look at what this means. The US and Nato are essentially destroying Ukraine in their wishful gamble that they might somehow possibly conquer Russia this way.

Wake up.



EDIT:

Ukraine IS free. But teasing and antagonizing Russia at the behest of the US is a STUPID way to use your freedom.

We have gone through that argument many times: A vote without free international observers, under recent military occupation, with testimonies of people being "persuaded" with little green men with guns is a joke. I do get that you may have a cynic vision of people's choice, my guess is that nobody ever asked you what would you like to do with your government and if they ever did you would probably pee your pants.

On the "Nazi" thing, again, it never made sense. The ZZs are at this point a Nazi army. Ukraine fought the real Nazis during WW II. Millions of Ukrainians were first "Holomodored" by Stalin, and then fought the real Nazis, the III Reich by the millions, even in Galicia and even those that in the first moments thought the Nazis would be preferable to Stalin (tough choice uh?).





Ukrainians deserve a chance to be free and choose their own destiny. That is real history, not made up referendums and name calling.

The thing that all five areas of the now-Russian-Federation areas have in common is that they _voted_ overwhelmingly to go with 'Putler' rather than the Bandarites when they finally got a chance to vote without the threat of summary execution at the hands of Azov hanging over their heads.  And that was before the Nulandist Ziocons and their clueless useful-idiot Nazi minions started rounding up kids for child-soldier duty.

I'm guessing that 'Putler' would probably agree to a re-vote if people question the 'free-and-fair' nature of the last elections, but I don't know the man so I couldn't say.  When he accepts the unconditional surrender from Ukraine we'll just have to see if one of the things he does is a re-vote.  Probably he wouldn't do it for the Galicia because he's afraid Russia would 'win' and nobody in their right mind would want anything to do with those cretins.  Best to shove them over to the Poles if possible.

Edit:

This thing is a flat-out ethnic genocide.  I'm way more sure of it now than when I called it back around the start of the SMO.

You take a religion based on the concept of a 'chosen' race.  Then you brainwash and terrorize them as children with largely made up crap in their yeshivas.  Then you have them study intently with a bunch of pervy old wierdos for another decade.  What do you get?  You get a bunch of real freaks who are frothing with rage over things that may or may not have happened hundreds of years ago, and who are a significant danger to everyone.  Most especially 'the Jews' who have to take the brunt of the push-back.

Sure sure... Putler is all about care and people, everyone knows that. If you want to know about military and other loses you should ask the Ruzzian Government about how many soldiers have died, etc... - spoiler alert - they will not tell you.

I think Ukraine has attacked a legitimate target, that is for sure, but also kicked the Ruzzian Chief Psychos in their Crimean little balls. The equipment destroyed is quite expensive and even difficult to replace, unless you take one of the ones defending Moscow to replace it (he he). It is a show of effectiveness and the ability to undertake a quite difficult covert ops right in the anus of Ruzzia.

That's why he HAS a universe, and you don't.

Does Ukraine simply want Crimea land? They don't seem to care about the people there.


Large-Scale Attack On Crimea: Ukraine Sends 73 Drones In 24-Hour Period

---

https://www.zerohedge.com/military/large-scale-attack-crimea-ukraine-sends-73-drones-24-hour-period
Russia's military initially said it downed a barrage of 42 drones near Crimea. A defense ministry (MoD) statement nine drones were "destroyed... over the territory of the Republic of Crimea," while 33 others "were suppressed by electronic warfare and crashed without reaching their targets." The figure was later in the day revised upward to 73 Ukrainian drones launched over the prior 24-hour period.

"Russian forces have downed 73 Ukrainian drones over the past 24 hours after a night of mass attacks centered on Crimea," the MoD stated. "Explosions hit a Russian base in Crimea on Friday, according to reports, following Kyiv's largest-ever drone attack on the peninsula."

There was no mention of casualties or damage due to the large-scale drone attack. Multiple drones were observed destroyed over water off Crimea's Cape Khersones, near the major naval port of Sevastopol.

"All forces and services are in a state of combat readiness," Sevastopol Governor Mikhail Razvozhayev announced on Telegram. This week Ukraine touted that its forces destroyed a S-400 defense system in Crimea, and further that special operatives conducted an amphibious landing Wednesday night, and safely returned from the mission.

Effectively, in your universe there is no space for the most likely explanation: Prigo starts taking too much public light and credit, Shoigu & company start getting nervous and to make it worse Prigo keeps criticising them publicly, even with some references to "the grandpa".

The military convince Putin to force Wagner's to sign normal army contracts, which effectively means the dissolution of Wagner. Prigo is not happy and makes a show of force (nothing like a coup). This does not fall well in the Kremlin. They agree going to Bieloruzzia, but Putin is not paying the wages nor probably the money that is due from the business in other countries.

Prigo flies to Moscow, there is no agreement and as he flees out, a couple of S-300 solve the problem.

But ... that is not possible. The guy has to be alive, this has to be a psi-op, the MI6 killed him... dude, get real. Everything is possible, but the simples explanation tends to be the explanation.

All Putin and Progozin did in June is to have a good laugh about what simpletons and chumps you guys are.

For added lulz, they labeled Prigozin a 'wanted insurrectionist' or whatever so that when anyone pitched a bitch about Russia's actions anywhere, Putin could just shrug and say it's a Wagner thing and "We feel your pain."

LOL what now? The ghost of Surovikin taking over the ghost of Wagner (Utkin)? Sounds a bit too surreal even for you.

What about "Putin killed him because of what he did in June"...is that even a possibility in your fantasy world?  Or did you rule that one out as soon as the rest of the world started making that guess.

There is some interesting news which got shadowed by death of Prigozhin. Today early morning Ukraine landed their troops on shore of Crimea near to Olenivka, clashed with local units, raised Ukrainian flag and returned back to boats. And offcourse, Russia is claiming that diversion group was destroyed:
https://edition.cnn.com/2023/08/24/europe/ukraine-crimea-operation-russia-intl/index.html
Russian Mi-8 helicopter landed in Ukrainian Poltava, more than 200km deep into Ukraine. Sounds incredible, right. Russian pilot decided to surrender and this Ukrainian operation took almost 6 months to complete. Helicopter transported parts of fighter jets and it will be used by Ukraine now. Other crew memebers didn't knew about pilot plans and point of flight destination, they tried to resist after they landed and were killed :

I wouldn't be surprised if Girkin will be next. He was allowed to crticize Russian army, generals and Shoigu, but he crossed red line when he started to criticise Putin. Then it didn't took long until he was sent to jail. And nobody will be surprised if he will die from heart attack in jail one day.

I wouldn't deny completely version that Prigozhin wasn't really on that plane and that now he can start new life with new identity somewhere in Africa. But I think most likely that he was really eliminated. After events in last June it looked that despite it he didn't felt any danger fro himself.

I should have mentioned Surovikian taking over Wagner when I thought of it yesterday so I could do a victory lap, but I've been tied up with other things.  My read is that Wager would trust him because he is sensitive about getting people killed for no good reason.

As for Prigozion and/or the real leader of Wagner who stays in the shadows, my first guess is that this was a Russian hoax or psych job and one or both are alive and well.  Retire to hang out with Ken Lay, Epstein, etc.

My second guess is that the Russians killed them in order to take over Wagner (which they would have been setting up for a while and would be the reason why Surovikian was put in charge of getting them outfitted.)

My third guess is some Western forces got him.  If so it would probably be the Brits since they are desperate enough to try it and way to weasely to admit it.  Probably not other capable parties.  The Israelies wisely put their bets on Russia from the first day of the SMO onward as best I can tell and are setting up to be friends with the bear when the dust settles.  Or bear trainers.

You keep on proving to us how little you understand. If you want any success, you really need to figure out what is going on. But if you DO understand, and are simply trying to agitate and make waves, you're even dumber than you seem... just like most Biden followers.


Wagner Decries 'Murder' Of Prigozhin Amid Reports Anti-Air Missile Struck Plane

---

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/prigozhins-dead-after-his-business-jet-10-people-board-has-crashed
"The murder/assassination of Prigozhin will have catastrophic consequences. The people who gave the order do not understand the mood in the army and morale at all. Let this be a lesson to all. You always have to go to the end," the Wagner channel statement reads.

The bodies of Prigozhin and his second-in-command Dmitry Utkin, have reportedly been identified, according to statements which have been quick to come out of Russian media. Russian news agency TASS has also made it official: "Evgeny Prigozhin and Dmitry Utkin were on board the crashed Embraer plane, the Federal Air Transport Agency reported."

He has vouched for two dictators if I may and both of them trying to hide under the umbrella of presidential regimes. One of them, Putler, has successfully achieved the transition for a more or less participative regime - take with salt -  to a fully personalised military dictatorship. The other one has tried really hard to move from a participative regime - with a weighty plutocratic influence - to a fully personalised populist regime. This later, Grumpy Trump, has failed in the first attempt.

I thought your were a big fan of Putin's "new world order". Why backpedal now? Own it, a deranged dictator doing deranged things, that's exactly what you've been shilling here for 200+ pages.

It would not surprise anyone tbh, anyone can defy and speak whatever about Putin, as long as they do it in private, better if is just to themselves, and better if it is only in their minds.

The fact that someone casually captured a video of the plane falling is similar to have a public execution. It is easier than having to manage to put some Polonium near the guy, which would have been the other way of signing this unmistakeably.

And more news about it. It wasn't Prigozhin that died (maybe).


Expert warns fake Prigozhin body double may be on board crashed jet

https://www.themirror.com/news/world-news/expert-warns-fake-prigozhin-body-69634
Anyone rejoicing that Wagner Boss Yevgeny Prigozhin may have died in a fiery plane crash should hold back on the fireworks as one expert has warned it could have been a body double aboard the plane.

The notorious mercenary boss, whose gang of blood thirsty soldiers has been blamed for warcrimes from Ukraine to Mali, is 'feared' dead in a plane crash along with 10 people on board.

This came after the 62-year-old billionaire led a coup against Vladimir Putin's Russian regime exactly two months ago and had been warned that his life was in danger. Putin has long reacted brutally to betrayal actual or merely perceived.

Putin is known for eliminating his opponents. Prigozhin was dumb to return to Russia after that failed coup, which of course wasn't a coup but a way to make Ukrainians celebrate. Prigozhin was "obviously" moved to Belarus to plan an attack on Poland and make NATO forces focus on that border instead of Ukraine...

They're now sending a governor there to assist in the investigation of the crash

-Hey, governor, what do we write in the report?
-Technical difficulties
-But there's a hole in the wing!
-Technical difficulties with the wing. You can add they hit a big bird, or something.

It's already confirmed about death of Prigozhin on official Russian media, no information about Utkin yet.

I think that after what happened on 23-24th June, many of us have thought how and when it will happen. He didn't accudentally fallen out of the window or didn't drink tea with poisons. Shooting down plane looks symbolic, considering that during mutiny, Wagner shot down few helicopters and airplane.
