Russian invasion of Ukraine

Too much disinformation now online, I am now checking rueters fact check before posting anything, several ppsts and pictures on both sides found to be old or other conflicts.

A war played out with a social media commentary much like Syria, where no one knows whats real or fake.
 
How long do you reckon Ukraine can realistically hold out ?

Chechens special forces being deployed to fight Unkrains elite guard the azov brigade.

That is one battle that will be a decisive one the chechens are said to be ruthless, and the Azov has platoons of neo nazis thugs.

Seen video of a captured russian soldier, must have been only 20ish crying when questioned as they offered to let him phone home, he had no clue why he was there and what the point was.

Even if russia win a war of attrition will carry on and I wonder if these young men in the russian army have the desire to be bogged down for years.
 
I can only go off my own knowledge from my service knowledge albeit decades ago. Friendly NATO military aircraft used to squawk 3 modes of IFF(identification friend or foe)when interrogated by our radar. Civilian planes only had mode 3.

Some great news regarding the Chechens you describe.
The Ukrainians have obliterated this special forces column of 56 tanks outside Kiev,
and killed their top general. Apparently the lot were blown to smithereens, and Putin is
ranting and raving about the lack of progress.
They could well be bogged down for years, but the worry now is that Putin will start
using the nasty stuff.
 
Putin is laughing at all of us. We've voted in weak willed clowns to govern us and, coupled with everyone turning into wet fanny wipes over covid, we've created a perfect storm where Russia can do what the fuck they want without fear of consequence or retribution.

This is what happens when you fixate on wokism, inclusivity, diversity and social justice. Light your candles, unfurl your banners, march down the street, tearfully applaud Footballers.










Putin doesn't give a fuck.
And this even got a LIKE !!
 
My missus thinks they should've just surrendered at the beginning, at least they'd still be alive with somewhere to live etc. This way many, many dead, and the City/Towns wrecked, mass evacuations of women who now don't know if their husbands are even alive. At the end of the day, they cant win.
What Mrs Walker forgets/doesn't know is the Ukrainian people have been under Russian control before. They clearly don't want that again. There are times when you have to stand up for what you believe, even if it means you might die. If my son(s) went off to fight I would be so worried but also so proud.

I'd take every bit of news with a pinch of salt mate. Loads of propaganda from both sides as per usual even if I'd like it to be the truth

Probably still wouldn’t buy a round

Yeah bloody inclusivity and social justice. I knew it’d end in the invasion of an innocent country and the outbreak of WW3.

I mean who didn’t see that coming?

Bell end.
 
They haven’t mate. They have said “selected Russian banks” which means many will be able to carry on, presumably those that are most important to trading with Germany will carry on. I understand why we can’t cause WW3 over the invasion of a non NATO country, but to not have a ban on all Russian banks is disgusting. Euros are seemingly more important than Ukrainian lives
Bang on. We remove the bank of Moscow from Swift so the germans (luxury cars) just get the them to pay the money into the bank of Stalingrad who aren't sanctioned and they transfer it.
A few posters on here were fuming that the UAE had abstained on a vote, look closer to home to see who is protecting their own economy at the expense of Ukranian lives.
 
This whilst not an official source seems a touch concerning:






My other half is in Poland this weekend and she said 4 miitary helicopters loaded with missiles flew over them yesterday, most likely on their way to the border. Seems like there is a build up happening on both sides.

Had a blazing row with my youngest boy this morning, him talking about his friend and him going to help Ukraine as part of this 'foreign legion'.
He has no military training whatsoever, he's studying law at Uni ffs, what would he do, read to them ????
I'd imagine it's all talk & just young mens bravado, well i hope it is.
Then i think about Ukrainian parents & their children taking up the fight.
Not sure i can stop him if he's determined to go, hopefully he'll calm down

It’s Germany who is protecting its own arse re swift, no one else.

Testosterone and high moral standards don't fall out and hopefully somebody will come to their sences
