No shit retard, that's why you fix it first.
Yeah but that will take a while and they need to assess and bring in supplies, at minimum a days worth of work if not more and while doing all that they need to pull forces to protect while they stabilize the bridge. A team of what 10 people and a truck came in and blew this shit up within an hours worth of time.
 
Alarms and spazzing going on in LVEEEV

I'm bored, and you are falling for it. It still isn't a war ending fuck over. Look at what Russia is doing to cities. This is a nothing burger.
Russia won't be able to fix it because the USA has put sanctions on them. What are they gonna do, make their own steel? Drill their own oil?

To play devil's advocate, most wars don't get a Midway to instantly turn the tide, it's the cumulative effect of a thousand nothingburgers adding up to undermine the attacker's ability to fight effectively.
 
Since the war is going so slowly, let me introduce you to one of the silliest things the Russians are claiming to try to field. Meet SOTNIK. a combat suit Russia claims can stop a .50 BMG, how it's going to stop one without turning the wearers insides into liquid mush the world will never know.
Very late but allow me to sperg about Sotnik (Centurion) a bit. Sotnik is intended by the Russians to be the eventual replacement to their Ratnik (Warrior) equipment program and is intended to be a more better, more modern Ratnik, it has even been referred to as Ratnik-3 in the past. The example suit is literally a prop not at all dissimilar to the American Land Warrior, Future Soldier, OICW and TALOS programs (TALOS was when the Army literally tried to make an Iron Man suit) that is total bullshit. As for Armor that can stop .50 BMG it already exists and has for a long time, mainly for Pilots but Russians have a plate that can stop 12.7x108 57-BZ-542 API (armor-piercing incendiary) bullets from an OSV-96 sniper rifle at a velocity of 830±20 m/s (2723±65 ft/s) when the plate is 50 meters away with less than 16mm of backface deformation.


Also the Ukrainians are now claiming that the Russians who are starving, have no ammo, are shooting themselves with ammo they do not have and are experiencing mass mutinies and desertions in addition to being wiped out hourly by the battalion somehow have the manpower to and are deporting People in Mariupol to Siberia.
 
Max Blumenthal is a disgusting Jewish communist you just straight-up make s*** up
The gray zone is the left-wing equivalent of the blaze with lower standards of journalistic integrity
To be fair, I warned you. Lol. He does have beady eyes and to top it off is a fucking ginger. Broken clocks and all that, though.
Pushing hungry and thirsty civilians into the TDF? Yeah they are doing a good job at killing grandma while making son and grandson pissed off and ready to enlist.

If you girls think Ukraine is going to "win" this war..... Good luck with that hypothesis Reddit. wow:eli2:
 
I was wondering, is Putin keeping Zelensky alive because he has the same view of him as the Allies had of Hitler.

That Hitler was incompetent and assassinating him, would lead to a more competent Nazi running the show like Speer.
I tend to see Zelensky primarily as the main diplomat for Ukraine, not a person indispensable to their military strategy. Also, I think his diplomatic forte is mainly in selling Ukraine to the West, rather than being good at negotiating deals with hostile powers. It's an important skill for Ukraine's strategic diplomacy, but if he were killed he's replaceable.

Speer's book was pretty interesting. If the 3rd Reich had continued he was going to be in charge of designing the new capital. It was going to be filled with colossal, intimidating buildings. Well, you can get an idea based on some of the other stuff he designed.
 
Yeah no structural damaged happened the warped thin pieces of rail can hold out, totally only a 2 hour fix. LMAO.
Slight PL, I have some experience repairing culverts and drainage like this. This is LITERALLY, a 24 hour fix. Throw a culvert pipe under it, 4-5 truckloads of stone, run a tamper through it, keep speeds under 10mph until a 2nd tamping is done after a few weeks.

Assuming of course, the Russians have a competent equivalent of combat engineers.
 
I'll be honest, Belarus invading western Ukraine more or less alone might actually signal a good thing for Ukraine overall if it stalls extremely fast. As it signals that Putin is at the very least hesitant to commit more troops to Ukraine because he can't open up another front as his lines are stretched thin enough as is. Belarus will serve as a distraction, but if Russia doesn't send more manpower and equipment Ukraine has the upper hand in winning a war of attrition.
 
It gets twitter slow-in-the-minds to share it. Hell, I think this is the third time I've seen it posted in these threads.
I mean the first meme I saw out of this war was from one of those Avengers movies (which honestly looked quite terrible, but was probably better in context in the actual movie) with little notes next to all the Avengers saying which character was which political figure (or which tactics in some cases). It honestly made me feel some existential despair.

Its the Azov nazi dudes. Likely just blew up a railway to keep anymore civ's from evacuating mariupol. Need more dead woman and children for twitter propaganda and meat shields. :story:

Considering Zelensky was a plant put into power by western intelligence in the first place....yeah they could replace him. But at this point the west is invested. That fag is either in a deep bunker in Kiev, or sitting in a nice cabin in Poland, balls deep in your daddy.
If I give you a 5 minute to complete task and I come back 3 hours later and you just finished and blew up the room doing so did you "Win"?
I want whatever you are smoking, I tried to turn off my normal human brain and engage my inner Kamala Harris...and it still didn't make any sense.
Gay slap fights like this is why laz left see what did.

This is why I am here.

If Russia is really so strapped for military formations that can immediately attack Ukraine, it will be only because the other 600.000 regular soldiers in Russia cannot be deployed fast enough from the other parts of Russia. While the Belarusian army is terrible based on everything we know about it, it's also already close to Western Ukraine with its supply infrastructure close enough. There's also the possibilities that Lukashenko decided on carrying out independent actions on his own (the most likely case imo; this is the exact thing he would do) or that Belarus' intervention isn't simply an attempt to draw Ukrainians to the west while Russia continues in the south.

That is to say, if Belarus even acts independently in the first place. I hope they won't, as a lot of Belarusians will die if it does, and between them, Hohols, and Russians, I'd take them any day. Hopefully it would hasten the end of Lukashenko's little fiefdom though.

I'm not disagreeing with you, but the cynic in me says putin might want them because any casualties they suffer won't lead to any domestic blowback for him.
 
I doubt that tbh. Killing him could also create a martyr and he knows that. Plus outright whacking a head of state is pretty risky business, and would definitely further alienate them, even among those still sticking with them. If you do it, it's best to do it like we did with Saddam and have the locals do it for you after a trial.
Zelensky knows where the bodies are buried and who Hunter Biden invites to smoke crack and fuck child hookers. He will be assassinated once his usefulness is finished, and the Russians will be blamed to further inflame the situation. If he commits suicide, then also assume Langley's finest glownegros are involved.
