It is strange to see Muslims wearing the Ribbon of St. George. I guess it is such a powerful symbol of the Russian state that Chechen Muslims are willing to ignore religious issues of that nature.

In areas where muslims and christians have lived togather for a long ass time, they would be generally less allergic to each other.

Compared to importing muzzies from foreign lands where the muzzie concentration count is over 90 percent and not used to living with christians.

Heh she wouldn't cut it as an MTA conductor. They had 169 known hits last year. That's just in their system. There are conductors with multiple kills.

If I had to live in NYC I would jump in front of a train too.

Why do they use this digital looking camo anyway? IFF against russians? I would think it would stand out more than regular camo.

That, and I feel like they are holsing the good shit back. Either because it is few, or they are really thinking Nato will go in.
Yeah, or see above, holding the good shit back for Poland if they decide to Kurwa into the east.

Well, the MSM in the US is playing up the "genocide" angle, in the hope of drumming up support for NATO going in, so it's a smart move.

Those are probably US military surplus, we don't use it anymore so they probably gave it to the Ukrainians.

It's better at fooling AI and radar systems than standard camo which is obviously more important than reducing visibility these days (though it managed that too). Here's an article.

1, Ukraine joining NATO and becoming a forward base for the US is an absolute line in the sand.
2. Kiev is the birthplace of Russia and the motherland will never be whole without it and
3. The US is an implacable enemy and we will show them our nutsack so they never dare to cross us. Putin DOES NOT WANT to be color revolutioned.

Important context that gets left out. Moscow claims that Navalny is backed by the CIA. The accusation that the Kremlin tried to poison Navalny, for example, came from a US-funded outlet, Bellingcat:

Navalny Poisoning: CIA, MI6, ‘Discredited’ State-Funded Bellingcat Play Key role in Accusing Russia

Western media coverage has overlooked the key role of the CIA, MI6, and the NATO member state-funded outlet Bellingcat in generating the allegation that Russia’s…

www.strategic-culture.org

I don't know if Navalny was poisoned or not; I do know the CIA immediately got involved in claiming he had been, the USA gives a whole lot more of a shit about this Literally Who than any other rando the Kremlin has strangled or suicided-via-bullet-to-the-back, and that Russia's insistence that they could not have poisoned him, because he definitely would not have survived if they had, is pretty fucking hilarious.

Oh yeah shitposting, that's going to stop the murder-rape. Seriously why is this guy clowning around while bombs are falling in cities all over his nation? Time to get real and approach this as a statesman rather than a comedian.

That's what I was thinking about just recently. As morale boosting as it is for Ukrainians that (supposedly) he's still in the country, livetweeting during a fucking war is the most moronic thing I've seen on the internet so far and I'm saying this on a site that documents terminally online people. Nevermind the constant fearmongering during said live tweets. He held a fucking press conference!

Plus the constant "we need X, Y and a no fly zone from NATO ASAP, russia big bad" and being rebuffed by NATO (and other world leaders) with pretty much "nah nigga".

To be fair, major companies in India are subcontractors to US companies. Not going to pl, but most tech companies have Indians do the grunt work because it’s cheaper. If the major tech companies start to bitch because they can’t renew their contracts, it could force the government’s hand.

Shut the fuck up
You have no idea what you're talking about monkey boy

 

[No Batty Boys in Jamaica]

So I've been intentionally keeping this at arms length because propaganda is gay, but for me it comes down to one question:

Does Russia have an actual casus belli against Ukraine?

My gut says 'no' or else they wouldn't have led with the retarded 'denazification' excuse. And if they don't have a just cause to invade, then this whole thing is just Putin being a bitch and the rest of the world is right to call him on it.

George W. Bush and Dick Cheney probably looking at Putin's de-Nazification excuse and thinking "damn, we really overthought the entry to the War on Terror. All we needed to do was say Saddam was a Nazi? 9/11 was some real Wile E. Coyote shit in retrospect".

Spoiler

JK if Bush tried to invade Iraq on Iraq-WMD alone an effective anti-war movement would've pigeonholed it. Instead, anyone who asked questions like "how do we pay for it?", "won't the price of oil go up like it did in '73?" and "is Saddam really a threat to the US?" was dismissed as a terrorist loving faggot.

No, those are BTR, from the turret it looks like BTR-70.

For those wondering about camouflage, somewhere in the middle of 2000's ukrainians decided on digital camouflage. And while it did work out pretty great for their air force:



It didn't really work out that great for their vehicles, because I guess either incompetency, corruption, lack of skill, or all of the above. Below are some of the less half assed variants.




And then you have this.

Digital camo is pretty fucking cool tbf, that early 2000's aesthetic is on point

If you go true digital camo it takes a fucking long time to apply. The article I linked earlier talking about the challenger had times of 4 days for traditional NATO cammo or 9 days to do a proper digital camo.
