Well, they can keep away ukrainian territorial defense forces from supporting upcoming offensive, by pretending they are going to strike.


Also, this feels doubtful

The TDF has been positioned there for months, not supporting any offensives
They arent offensive worthy, so they're perfect for the spot they occupy

On the left is the President of Ukraine; on the right is his sponsor and the sponsor of Azov, who are a neo-Nazi organization, "Dnipro" and "Donbass" battalions and others.
Unfortunately for you, integrity requires self-awareness.
ok, forget integrity, start with some reading comprehension skills first
 
the war is going so well that Putin is begging for peace talks again. Also lel at "our troops withdrew", what a dumb piece of shit

e: it's from meeting in Tajiksitan, during which the Tadik president dissed Putin and demanded russia starts treating its asian allies with some respect. Tajikistan is a poor country of 9 million (that's less than Moscow), and half their GDP comes from remmitances of Tajiks working in Moscow, it's armed forces operate 30 tanks and two planes. Even shitholes like that do not fear russia anymore lel

Ukrsines territorial defense brigades are a dime a dozen. Keeping them busy won't help Russia. It's the regular army they need to worry about.
 
Doing good things for bad reasons is still morally superior to being Russia
Doing good things with bad intent is called hypocrisy and duplicity, two traits that don't make you better than your opponent, just skeevy and untrustworthy (traits you seem to have in abundance).

Folks, less pigfighting and more info/reasoned opinions, please. This thread is a good place to get information. Pigfighting is most unlikely to change anyone's mind, so why do it. Sadly, believe this war will go on for a very long time, wish it wouldn't. Action in Moscow is needed.
Stop pretending to take the high ground here; you recently sperged I was "very committed to Russia" when I made it crystal clear that I, as an American, am firmly opposed to the United States instigating, funding and directing the clusterfuck in Ukraine and that it's the height of irresponsibility and fecklessness of our government to provoke the only other nuclear superpower on this planet, especially at a time when the United States is experiencing inflation, recession and social unrest. Your moralfagging is hypocritical and pretentious.

Fuck it. I say keep provoking them so that they will continue to send unwilling, ill-equipped dipshit conscripts into the meat grinder of modern Western weaponary whilst they try to clean the rust of barely functional 1980s tanks because they are too scared to use their barely maintained 1960s nukes. The people back home will eventually get pissed off enough that government officials will end up swinging from lamp-posts.

Russia isn't shit. They have gas that the EU wants to buy. That's it. Other than that it's pretty much a 3rd world country full of drunken inbreds. The US huffed their own farts for so long pretending that they had a real enemy on a global stage that they managed to convince people that Vlad was an actual threat when it is pretty obvious that he is just some shitty tinpot dictator who has backed himself into a corner.
 
Which is still better than doing bad things. This is not complicated.
You are correct, saying having no moral grounding or scruples does not complicate calling you what you are: a hypocrite. Someone like Kurwachen is not a hypocrite because he doesn't pretend to be a better, more moral person than anyone else but you do, so that makes you the bigger asshole, if not the biggest No, scratch that, that's reserved for the one regurgitating Cold War era boomer talking points. That one knows better but does it anyway.
gibberish

"Hahaha, look at this guy not wanting to turn a country into a parking lot asking for a peaceful resolution."

Fucktard.
Ever heard Chris Rock's "black people vs niggas" bit? There's a part where he says it's not worth bragging that one "at least ain't in prison" because people by default aren't supposed to be in prison - not being a criminal is expected of any member of society.
Saying that Putin "at least isn't nuking Uktaine" is not deserving of praise. Under no circumstance should he be doing that.
You are correct, saying having no moral grounding or scruples does not complicate calling you what you are; a hypocrite.
Contrary to popular belief, calling other people hypocrites does not wash away the sin.
This hypocrite thinks the war has reached the sealclubbing phase and needs to end. The consistent among us want more lives thrown at the meatgrinder to salvage a lost cause. My "hypocrisy" does not weigh down my conscience. Can you say the same?
 
Heard a lot of praise today both for Surivikin and a Teplinsky working in the Kherson direction. Surovikin for finally ordering the construction of proper defensive structures and lines to withstand Ukrainian assaults for the foreseeable future both in the Lyman direction and the Kherson direction - an act that has already paid dividends, as Ukraine's offensives in the Kherson region bring little success at great cost and Teplinsky (active in Kherson) for the same thing, going as far as "personally" building trenches.

But who's Teplinsky? We haven't heard much of him, since there's scarce mention of him (though he's been pictured giving medals).

1665879163511.jpeg


Well there's a face for the name. Colonel-General Mikhail Yurievich Teplinsky, born in Donetsk, he's a veteran of the First Chechen War (probably second as well) and has been with the VDV for a long time. He was recently appointed Commander of the Airborne Troops (AKA Commander of the VDV) around June 18 of this year, replacing Andrey Serdyukov after he had the genius idea of taking a light assault force that had already miraculously captured Hostomel Airport and held it for days, and assaulting a heavily defended city several times. His presence near Kherson confirms heavy VDV presence around that area (not that we didn't know of this), but this man may be to thank for the Russian's recent success in repelling nearly all UAF offensives.

A lot of Russian sources praised him when they talked about the UAF's latest attack, which they claim caused up to 150 casualties in personnel (wounded & killed) and dozens of tanks, IFVs and technicals. Russian losses were much lower, despite the shower of Smerch rockets and other artillery pieces. For now these aren't "real attacks", but really just reconnaissance in force (probably shouldn't do this in a wide open field when you have a very clear artillery disadvantage, but I'm not on the ground so whatever).

Near Lyman, rumors that I don't believe say that the UAF has set the deadline of October 17th to assault Svatove, and has assembled at least 40,000 personnel for this effect. Much is being built in terms of fortifications and trenches on the Russian side, so I don't believe this would be attainable even if it was real unless the UAF was willing to take catastrophic casualties. Any further attacks by the UAF will be even more costly than they were before as Surovikin seems to understand that fortifications are still a requirement of warfare and not an option. But who knows, such an attack may never materialize - sources have claimed the UAF was building up forces near Zaporizhie for ages but no real attacks have materialized, just more recon and small river crossing attempts.

I am ending this post by wishing good luck to the Mobilizer of Moscow, Igor Strelkov. I am however saddened to say that he has gotten rid of his funny mustache and replaced it with a soy goatee. Very disappointed. Most likely he'll be in some PR role where he will never fire his rifle, but in case he goes back to doing glow-ops and massacring civilians like the good old days in Chechnya or goes as an officer, I'll praise him for at least putting his money where his mouth is, like him or not, he's been there for the separatist movement from the start.

Honestly I agree with everything you say. A series of of catastrophic failures is immensely bad for politically appointed generals and very good for the actual warriors. This is a simple rule of nature and no country is immune to it. Peace time armies breed military incompetents who are politically useful. Wartime armies breed warriors who while politically inconvenient during peace become politically indispensable during war. If the peace time politician generals are not killed themselves they fuck up so bad they get replaced in short order.

I imagine the Russian Army is going through a similar evolution right now. Anyone who says the Russo-Ukrainian War has not been an unmitigated catastrophe for the Russian Army at this point is either liar or so high on copium their opinion should be disregarded like you disregard the rantings of a tweaking vagrant.

It may be too late for the Russian Army. Ukraine is massive and they are stretched thin. By all accounts the next major Ukrainian push will not be Svatove or Kherson. It's going to be Melitapol, and that combat zone is as far from Russian resupply as you can conceivably get. It's also been a largely quiet section of the front since the opening days of the Russian blitz when they took it unopposed.

I have doubts about how ready the Russian Army is to defend a push for Melitipol, considering how hard they are pressed at Kherson and Svatove.

Bruh.
 
Literally dead for nothing. From the telegram of some RT journo chick.
European leaders don't give a fuck about European lives that's for sure. And that's universal from UK to Russia, and I'm fairly certain we would be sent into the meatgrinder the exact same way in East and Central EU.
Oh yeah, in modern war, almost nobody dies heroically. Getting blasted by artillery, sniped in the noggin, hit with some drone, most of these deaths are just random, dumb, and the perpetrator unseen and impossible to defend against. Besides some infantry closer range battles, you'll die like an idiot, and if you're unlucky, when they find your body, they'll piss on it and desecrate it like animals.
