Maybe, but now Ukraine's think tanks will stumble upon this while trawling the internet for brilliant tactical strategies and will be prepared for this.
Ukraine's entire war plan is to not look like a completely lost cause so the gibs don't disappear. To try my hand at being a retarded armchair general, Z man will throw every last body he can club on the head and stick in a van at preventing its loss. I assume it'll turn into another one of those battles where Russia flattens an area, captures it. Then withdraw when the next wave of brave heros charge in to retake it. Rinse and repeat. Nafo niggers will piss and shit themselves about how Ukraine recaptured 2 kilometers from the orcs. All while Russia slowly and methodically pushes the rest of the skeleton crewed line.
Asking a jew a jewish question and then being surprised they answer like a jew....
They already discussed moving capital to lvov
This is basically how war works: one side slow chipping away at the other, sometimes going the other way. At this point it’s definitively moving in one direction. Even though Russia will collapse any day now and Putler will be overthrown by deebly goncerned citizens who want nothing more than gay marriage, if Russia is definitively pushing west of the Dnieper river, then shit will get very real for this war.
I hope there's no serious notion in your mind that Ukie leadership or anyone directly involved in this get insights from this thread. You're probably joking but...
I wouldn't say easy. Chernigov is heavily defended and due to its location is much more easily kept resupplied than previous cities like Bakhmut and Avdiivka. That's not to disagree with @Fapcop that a push towards it could happen. And if nothing else if it were credibly threatened it becomes an instant magnet for soldiers and material that otherwise could go to reinforce the other fronts as they say. But it's not some sneaky quick "win" button. It also means more of a front right on Russia's borders which might not be wanted. Remember, this whole SMO as far as Russia has stated was originally to secure its borders and independence for the breakaway oblasts. Russia doesn't need land, it needs security. And there's little prospect of keeping Chernigov as part of any negotiated peace which I still believe Russia wants.
Yeah, I get that too. I watch Defence Politics Asia and he'll talk about major changes and Russians on the move and then you draw out and it looks like just a little fraying around the edges. But I think that feeling is in large part because we can't see the most valuable metrics for determining how the war is going - casualties and equipment. Ukie forces aren't evenly spread across Ukraine they move to the front, of course. Who knows how much damage is done to Ukraine's capability. Without knowing that sort of information you can't tell who is winning from territorial changes - there's such a thing as a Pyrrhic Victory and a change in territory on a map could come at a catastrophic cost. I know you get that, I'm just saying because I get the same reaction too and then I remind myself of this. We're starved of some of the most vital information in this war.
Chernigov isn't West of the Dneiper fwiw. There is a LOT of tough territory just to get to the Dneiper and that's not happening any time soon barring a catastrophic collapse in Ukranian morale or capability. I honestly don't think Russia wants to occupy West of the Dneiper with the exception that given Ukraine's refusal to negotiate leading to this war perpetuating so far, they may now see Odessa as a stretch goal. But it's not a war for land or for resources. Russia has both in abundance. What Russia needs is secure borders and readmittance into trade with the anglosphere. Occupying West of the Dnieper is probably even a hindrance to their security, not worth it.
No. The Taiwanese were all the cleverest and most Westernised ones, who managed to GTFO when the Communists were obviously going to win.
I hope he paid cash for those cartridges. I can just imagine Jewlensky sending the Ukestapo to hunt down every credit card purchaser in the last 12 months.
They also took with them the technology to make superior flip-flops and sunglasses.
Drafts don't work because nobody wants to get shot for a war they have no stake in.
Tens of thousands of young men have died fighting for a government that they know hates them.
If we can start extradition of the ukrainian whores and e-whores that kept pushing the war and shaming draft dodgers, I'd support supplying enough rifles to getting them equipped for the front line.
If they do this, it'll be genuinely interesting. Not in a "Thots and egirls BTFO" way but actually seeing what large scale use of women in direct combat roles looks like in peer level warfare. Its been decades since we've seen female-heavy units used in more open combat, as opposed to the modern Israeli data which is just counter insurgency operations with relatively well trained fighters. I have a feeling a lot of military intelligence groups will be watching that very closely, as the viability of female conscription has always been in doubt, and there's a lot of questions around how much extra training if any is required to overcome the different physical limits and psychological elements of the fairer sex.
