Russian Invasion of Ukraine Megathread

[Retink]

Even the Jews are losing, the petrodollar is in peril.

I'm just glad the adults are back in charge and we're respected on an international stage by the Saudis leaving us on read while having meetings with Chairman Xi.

If it spares us just one mean tweet, it was all worth it.

I think he hope TBTB will give him a hidden ace who'll be a bad surprise for Putin.

Well Captain Ukraine is not Truman when two nukes were ready to go and he gave Japan an ultimatum.

I expect his address to Congress to be much like what he said to Canadian Parliament in that he ask them to hypothetically imagine their families were being bombed. This, of course, doesn't work because the spawns and grand-spawns of the career members are safe from any harm, much like the Ukrainian oligarchs are far away from the warzone. I won't be surprised if he brings up Jan. 6th since that is the equivalent of Russia invading Ukraine to these swamp creatures.

"his decision to fire a Tochka-U missile towards Donetsk without authorization"
Lol, lmao even.

So the guy was fired. Sent him to head the Kyiv military administration. Gotta wonder how this shit plays out.

Thank goodness, mean tweets are white supremacy.

So much for the denial, why bother? Makes you look even worse

Why is nobody else talking about this?

Edit: The original source is TASS, a Russian state-owned news station.

So that does indeed seem to confirm that the Tochka-U belonged to Ukraine. That's unbelievably fucked, hope Putin draws & quarters these people responsible.

Also, Kiwis don't let Kiwis forget to archive but there is a long que.

Seems like this is the only article talking about this >inb4 because propaganda won't allow DA TRUTH.

Yup, fighting on your home ground can be highly motivating.

@A_Callow_Youth - you make good points. Russia prepared for a different sort of war than they are fighting now. Happens more often than most think. Still believe a great deal of the money intended for weapons, trucks, ammo, fuel, and supplies disappeared into various pockets. Bet we'd be surprised to see Russian war reserve stockpiles. Suggest those stockpiles may be meager at best.

Both Russia and Ukraine are very corrupt (so is every other country) but it seems a lot more of the money that was put into the Ukrainian military actually found its intended target.

Old news. These morons should never be taken seriously and I do not see why places like Fox news feel the need to even dunk on them.

At the very least the tire budget seems to have been better spent on the Ukrainian side.

Of course, no man was like Alexander

You're damn right about that.

[For peace, Darius] offered him all the territory west of the Euphrates, thirty thousand talents of silver, and the hand of one of his daughters. Alexander would become Darius' son-in‑law and occupy the place of a son, while sharing in the rule of the whole empire. Alexander brought together all his Friends into a council and laid before them the alternatives. He urged each to speak his own mind freely. None of the rest, however, dared to give an opinion in a matter of this importance, but Parmenion spoke up and said: "If I were Alexander, I should accept what was offered and make a treaty." Alexander cut in and said: "So should I, if I were Parmenion."

-Diodorus Siculus, Book XVII

What a Chad.

Remember when shitting on the CIA was a favorite past time of the left? Fuck me this is surreal.

Because this is the primary source maybe?

But they would be stupid to make such an easily proven lie.

Reddit coping for Zelensky:

Can't make this shit up.
Pictures won't upload, so I quote:

This is honestly the only article about this (there's two more that don't mention the bombing), and has an apparent direct quote from Zelensky... I understand that something like this can and is heavily censored in our media, so are there any Russian (or more reliable) sources? Otherwise they have a point tbh.

 

[naffatune]

Lezgo uploads be workin again!!

American mercenary who survived Russian airstrikes (on Yavorovsky training center, I believe) informs people to avoid volunteering in Ukraine, for various reasons (link).

Wife of an American volunteer states reasons similar to the guy above (link)

Burning in Nikopol after bombing (link)

Lots of M1A2 Abrams tanks get carried by a train in Mannheim (link)

First two videos are the most important. Really goes to show you the absolute, unadulterated state of the Ukrainian army atm

They just hate her because despite being of similar age she is still hot and can make dicks hard. Something Whoopi Goldberg has never done and Joy Behar has forgotten.

 

[Generic Retard]

Other sources half corroborate this

https://ukranews.com/en/news/841548-zelenskyy-appoints-jfo-commander-pavliuk-kyiv-regional-military-administration-head

but they don't mention reasons for the replacement.

If you google the name of that guy, you will find more than just something something clusterbomb.

We will see

That's very interesting, because nobody in Europe uses Abrams tanks. They're only used by Egypt, the Saudis, Australia, Kuwait and the US. European countries use either German Leopard 2s, modernized T-72 variants, or a combination of both. And those fat lads on the trains are 100% Abrams tanks.

Why does this feel like something big is about to kick off?

 

[Tom Nook's Gloryhole]

People have been saying they get Ukrainian citizenship for their service

So lets get this right:

1. Absolute faggots come over to Ukraine to join the Ukraininan resistance
2. They are put directly in the firing line and very few of them will actually end up alive by the time the war is over
3. They get Ukraininan citizenship
4. Which then becomes Russian citizenship once Russia completely annexes Ukraine.
5. Becoming a citizen of the country that you wanted to wipe off the face of the earth.

Absolute kino. I actually prefer this timeline to redditors getting turned into hamburger meat because of the existential horror it'll produce once they try to get home and find themselves detained for being a russian national.

Maybe the chickenhawks in DC got tired of waiting for Putin to do his false flag attack so they are going to make it for him

 

[RainwaterDrop]

Probably didn't have proper OpSec and was tracked by phone. Or crossed paths with a Russian spy. Or the Russians are lying and he just got hit by artillery/bombs/crossfire. Could be anything. Sightseers disappeared under mysterious circumstances all the time in the Syrian Civil War. This is no different.

That's the point, it could've been literally anything. Even the best soldiers die in battle, training matters but anything can do you in. Mariupol right now is a hot zone, it probably didn't help that his mere presence made headlines, but I don't really buy that they had a team set up precisely to kill this guy, reeks of propaganda. Probably got caught in an artillery strike, as you said, or something else, even a building collapse could have done it - problem is, a heavily shelled location is a sniper's paradise, damaged buildings make it much harder to spot a sniper. This guy had experience, so he probably picked a good spot for himself, unless there was an opsec fuckup, this doesn't make much sense lol!

Both Russia and Ukraine are very corrupt (so is every other country) but it seems a lot more of the money that was put into the Ukrainian military actually found its intended target.

Even oligarchs aren't fucking retarded to simply embezzle shit and ignore the elephants in the room, in Ukraine they had a very real fear of a Russian invasion (they spent the better part last decade fighting off Russian proxys, after all) and seeing how their army was a mess in 2014, to the point that the batallions outgunned them, there was a pressing issue of reforming the armed forces and actually building up a proper force, after all their money comes from Ukraine and it's useless if their businesses are simply smoldering ruins. Every single analysis I had read before shit hit the fan said the same thing, that war breaking out would be unlikely precisely because the ukranians built themselves into a formidable fighting force, making the russian effort sure to be costly, as it is right now!

It's pretty obvious the opposite didn't happen in Russia, if they are asking for chinese help with fucking foodstuffs for their soldiers for instance, you can tell they pocketed most of the money and set aside some pennies for the actual shit they needed!

Putin has been trying to bait NATO into being active in the conflict precisely because this justifies his narrative, having troops in Europe be in a good state of combat readyness is vital. They already have aircraft there by default, having tanks on standby in case of "accidental" spillovers is useful. Note, this doesn't mean something will happen, it means that they are preparing for the case where something happens!
