While the UK complies, the US claims they are necessary as Ukraine's weapon stocks are diminishing.
Then why are your Russian suck buddies using them?

| From sub commander to deputy head of mobilization. Sounds like maybe someone was doing him a favor. |

Peace on whose terms and under what conditions? You're a real chicken shit if you think it's OK for Russia to just up and invade one of its neighbors. Peace could be had right now if Russia would just pack their shit and head back *INTO MOTHERFUCKING RUSSIA*!!! And of course people who build weapons are going to make money. That's a given, but don't try to drum some goofy conspiracy shit like we want the war to go on and on and on just for the purposes of enriching Raytheon, et al.

If you think this is the reality of the present situation---then you are the dumbest, finger-licking shit-monkey in the world. Yeah-right, Putin was just taking a shit one morning, then snapped his fingers as a light-bulb went off in his head... he then picked up the red phone and ordered his troops into Ukraine on a whim. LOL!!!! |

Maximum brilliance!
Right now--Russia has switched to MAXIMUM production of the Kinzhal missles... and several likely have Zelensky's name stenciled on them. Brilliant! |

On the battlefield, Ukraine is losing badly and is in danger of having its offensive military capacity annihilated. The famous Ukrainian spring counteroffensive has met with disaster and been reduced to a series of impotent pinprick attacks.
The original Ukrainian plan was to punch through Russian defenses with an “iron fist” armored attack, retake the city of Melitopol, and from there reach the Sea of Azov. This would cut Russia’s land bridge (from Rostov-on-Don to Crimea) and divide Russian forces into two groups that could not reinforce each other.
This would open the way for Ukraine to take more territory and possibly retake Crimea itself. The Ukrainian counteroffensive began on June 4. The iron fist quickly turned into a piñata. From the outset, Ukrainian armor was badly mauled in Russian minefields. Additional damage was done by Russian artillery, missiles and aviation. Over a month into the offensive. Ukrainians are still fighting in a gray zone short of the first of three Russian fortified lines. If the offensive went according to plan, the Ukrainians would have broken through these forward positions in the first couple of days. But here they are.
They claim to have taken a few villages, but some are no more than a single farmhouse. None are of strategic importance. The Russians are repelling the Ukrainians, in most cases inflicting high casualties and loss of Ukrainian armored vehicles and tanks. It’s a war of attrition that Ukraine will certainly lose. Western Duds What about all those advanced weapons the U.S. and its NATO allies have been sending to Ukraine?
Well, they don’t work as expected, they’re easily destroyed by the Russians, the training periods take too long to be of any short-term use, or that they haven’t yet been manufactured or delivered. Look at the fancy Patriot air defense systems we sent Ukraine. The Patriot systems cost $1 billion each, but at least two have been destroyed by Russian hypersonic missiles.
And after some initial successes, the HIMARS precision artillery systems we gave Ukraine have proven ineffective because the Russians have successfully jammed the GPS transmissions, so the missiles go off-course. Eventually they’re destroyed by Russian artillery.
In some cases, reportedly, the Russians have actually been able to redirect the projectile back in the direction of where it was launched. Talk about a boomerang! The bottom line is that while the U.S. military was knocking down mud huts in the Middle East and Afghanistan, Russia was developing high-tech weapons to counter the best weaponry that NATO has on hand. NATO tanks and other armored vehicles have certainly not made much impact. |
