What is your opinion on possible jail time for males, who left Ukraine after the start of the conflict?
Would you return or try to settle in Europe?
1. I left legally.
2. I left before the 24th.
3. Arakhamia of the Servant of the People said that they're not voting for the jail time return law and they will "seek other ways to punish government officials who abrogated their duty during the war".
4. I have been planning to settle in Europe at some point anyway, so the war just accelerated my plans.
 
Bloomberg is concerned the new democratic alliance may not outlast Ukraine war because Hungary, Israel, India, China, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and South Africa are not playing along and France almost elected Marie Le Pen.

There is a lovely bit tucked in the middle of the article:

We need once more to acknowledge the towering truth of the old saw that the price of peace is perpetual vigilance, together with a willingness to fight, kill and if necessary die — or at least commit others to do so — to defend our vital interests.

"We may have food and gas shortages now (much of which was inflicted by our own judeo-communist policies), but surely importing millions more antithetical military combatants will somehow fix our resource problems. Your homeland becoming a rape capitol like Sweden in just 5 years is simply part and parcel with our nebulous progressive© plan." OY fuckin' vey, the curtain may be closed, but the semite's nose is still peaking out from it, quite blatantly.

Exclusive video of the last remaining Azogite in Azovstal as he prepares to surrender (in 2025).
I didn't know Tarkovsky created a sequel to S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
 
I won't. Your reaction to my downdoots only makes the neuron connection stronger and I will keep pressing these stickers because I enjoy the reaction I'm getting off you guys.
I am glad that you found a way to cope with the terrible knowledge that the country you simp so hard for on an internet retard mocking forum (that you abandoned) will jail you if you ever come back.

>totes not mad

Yes, despite my conflicting feelings towards the Ukrainian State, I will support it with my taxes (as I still work) and would still root for its survival and prosperity.
 
Mad Max.

How do you like this "custom armor" of KAMAZ

Handicraft armor of vehicles of logistics support units of CJSC in the zone of special military operation

Damn. Does those even work? I suppose it'd block small arms, but I think even a .50 cal would puncture it good.
As route-clearance, but that's about it.

When the National Guard showed up in Iraq with deuces & 5-ton trucks covered in hillbilly armor, they got tasked doing route-clearance between Balad & BIAP. Except for the newest vehicles, most were too slow to keep up with even the shittiest TCN convoys, but that along with the extra altitude of their gunners helped with spotting IEDs & ambushes to some extent. A fucking lot of them still showed up in our can-point, stacked 2-3 high, that'd been zapped by IEDs and RPGs; but eventually they got replaced with standard MRAPs and engineer vehicles, and it took a year before I stopped seeing them used.

From what I understand, Ukrainian ambushes on Russian convoys use either rockets or mines, but not so much with command-detonated things like claymores & IEDs. So the Russians using those trucks as route-clearance isn't surprising, especially given their attrition rate of other armored trucks & vulnerability of their supply lines & routes of advance/retreat. Those poor bastards are getting hosed if they're only now just starting to run route-clearance, same as what happened to us.
