You will laugh.... (or perhaps not...)

The "defenders of the rules-based world order, freedom and democracy" have turned into a bunch of clowns. Sit back and enjoy the comedy I say.

s-u-r-e

only one army in Ukraine has:
- faced literally all weaponry NATO could throw at it short of nukes
- captured 20% of the other's territory
- destroyed 50% of the other's electricity generation capacity in 3 days

Ukraine sure is stronk! :ROFL:

Good God you are naive.

"All" weaponry that NATO could throw?

For one ATACMs have not been used.
Cruise missiles have not been used.
Smart bomb's such as laser guided and JDAM's have not been used.
Submarines, cruisers, destroyers and aircraft carriers have not been used.
No NATO tanks have been used, such as the M-1, Challenger 2 or Leopard 2.
No NATO figher aircraft, such as the F-22 or F-35.
No NATO attack helicopters, such as the Apache have been used.
No attack aircraft,such as A-10'shave been used, or F-15E Strike Eagle.
No NATO SEAD Aircraft have been used.
No NATO bombers, such as the B-52, B-1 or stealth bomber B-2, have been used.
None of the more capable UCAV drones have been used.

I could go on.

Would you say deliberately cutting off a civilian population's water supply is a war crime?
Russia took Crimea in 2014?
Russia does not have the capabilities to install desalination plants? They had no plan to provide water?
Or did Russia always feel they could rely on a land bridge at some point, thus making the need for a desalination plant redundant?

Evidently they don't. Which was one of the very objective reasons for the 2022 invasion. Crimea is a major problem for Ukraine because of their shortsighted actions regarding that canal.

If you put yourself in the shoes of a Crimean farmer just minding their own business, then suddenly Kyiv cuts the water supply, the Ukrainian central government is going to be in your $hitbook, regardless of what the Russians have done. Then the evil Russians come along in 2022 and open up the canal allowing your farm to work again.

I actually feel sorry for the Russian conscripts. They are send to be slaughtered in Ukraine because of Putin’s stupid ambitions and there are absolutely no benefits for them or their families.
That's definitely part of the horror of this conflict. And when you consider it is all facilitated through the propaganda cocoon they, their parents, everybody in Russia is wrapped up in... That is not how a human being should live and die. More reminiscent of how factory chickens are reared and slaughtered. A machine. Dystopian.

First time I have seen a BUK decoy:



How do we know it is not a real BUK? Well a real BUK would have secondary explosions and bigger fire. I have linked a video to show the difference.

This how an actual UA BUK looks when it explodes for comparison:


There were already photos showing the Ukrainians have made decoy HIMARS, so not surprising.
