Quite funny, but the US did not invade. The US informed Syria and its allies about their intention to carry out strikes against ISIL and related groups
that's wtf an invasion IS

jesus, how blind are you?!?

better yet, if that is "ok" then Russia in Ukraine is perfectly fine, why does it bother you any more than US actions in Syria?!?

you are a walking contradiction. It is extremely clear that the Syrian elections in 2021 were rigged. But you see no problem with that
wrong again

Syrian elections were rigged how? based on what proof?
Ukraine elections were legitimate how if opposition got arrested and denied the chance to even run?

the contradiction is you, either both elections were legitimate given the lack of any proof to the contrary, and hence both invasions were illegitimate

OR

neither election was legitimate and both invasions are justified

there is no universe where the one election was legit while the other was not
nor is there a universe where the one invasion was justified while the other is not

the is just objective fact, your thrashing against such basic truths is quite entertaining though, do continue

Yes , that's why I got curious about this column...its been moving from Russia to Minsk and down...I would be surprised if Russia has any forces to spare sitting on the border, but all this is above my knowledge

View attachment 1284700

These border guard brigades also serve as utility, and could possibly recover Russian armaments which aren’t moveable. I am sure that the Russians salvaged as much as possible, but those same brigades are being redeployed, so the Belarusians, and the Russian border guard brigade which is reported to be there, are on clean-up and maintenance duty. The redeployed brigades and regiments will be issued with 'new' armaments.

Or even just a grenade with the pin pulled and then placed under the body, as you move the body the lever pops and then bang, apparently an orc favourite trick according to some sources.
That is no secret, I also know that source. Hollywood

I'd suggest reading up on the Pacific Theatre and Vietnam.

A favourite tactic of the Japanese was to booby-trap bodies or other items (food, weapons, water containers, etc) that would draw the attention of US troops with grenades. Pull the pin, apply pressure, such as a dead body. Even better if it was US war dead as US troops would be inclined to move/remove them. It is why US troops quickly learned to leave dead bodies where they lay, even their own, and to not pick up anything until it had been cleared.

Any evidence of it happening in this war? Not just old war stories?
