Current Affairs Ukraine

[Walken]

let's get you to bed, grandad

Stop cancelling invasions! Its a violation of their freedom of speech!

 

[Spadge Vernacular]

I am so angry at the outrage and horror that I am feeling like Lister in the Polymorph ep!

 

[Yarrgh]

That does seem odd.

 

[Charro]

Talking utter tripe, your either conned or conning!

Ben Wallace literally on record yesterday saying UK will follow EU stance on refugees, yet twice this government has been shamed and has tried to hobble something together, which is least as possible it can get away with. And still nothing like EU stance. Also of course as we type our Government is trying undermine and do away with refugee status altogether by introducing Nationality and Borders bill...
And as for Putin's regime monies we are a joke like women reminded Boris and told world about the Putin's Russian regime mansions in London...

We’re on the same side but you’re too bitter and entrenched to have any sort of nuanced discussion.

I’m not talking utter tripe at all. Look at other countries like Germany and Italy for example, as I said, we could still do a lot more and I hope we do with taking in refugees.

Don’t call anyone an apologist for greed just because they see things slightly differently.

I'm a little surprised it's taken Putin as long as it has to start going after communications.

I'm even more surprised that Russian military commanders have been huge idiots about securing communications and logistics. These are mistakes the Soviets would not have made.

 

[Kev The Rat]

That does seem odd.

Makes no sense as I’ve read they have high quality comms equipment.

there’s so much propaganda out there no idea what to believe.

File under elite Chechen units and Non-existant Polish migs?

 

[dublinbluenose]

Has the west stopped importing oil and gas from Russia yet?

Canada has

That does seem odd.

yea, I've no idea who these guys are but it does tie in with the chaotic approach to the early stages of the invasion. And, unfortunately, if ground troops are being so badly mismanaged, it just spells more devastating air and long range attacks.

They probably wanted to blitz them end expected that Ukrainian military gonna crumble fast like in Crimea 2014.
But that didn't happened, and now they changing tactics, massive artillery strikes, precision strikes, basically softening enemy before moving in.

Its old Soviet/Russian doctrine, artillery, artillery, artillery.... look what they done in Berlin 1945 or Grozny 20 something years ago

If Russia does a Grozny on Kiev the death toll will be beyond huge. Terrifying times.

Yeah I think it was either a blitz or the slower approach we are seeing now.

Ukrainians don’t seem to be taking advantage of the dodgy comms?

Maybe the Russians knew they couldn’t exploit the lack of comms, but still no real excuse for the casual approach

[Mrk]

lol at us all being petrified of Russia's military strength only to learn they source their communication equipment from Fisher Price

Absolute scruffs. UTFU!
