Russian invasion of Ukraine



I wonder if the UK will follow suit. I doubt it. UK support for Ukraine really isn't what it was before the election. I really hoped Starmer's promise before the election was true - but like other promises it looks like it isn't a real promise.



Does make me wonder if we have much more to send in terms of storm shadows. It’s not clear how many we had to start with.

Probably good that there isn’t much known about how many are made each year ect.

Our issue is quite simply, we don’t have enough to start with. Defence has been cut to the bone and those who make munitions for us aren’t getting the orders.

There was one on the TV a few months back, or so, who was asked why they weren’t making more. He replied that they weren’t getting the orders.
 

Article says:
1: "the trial was held behind closed doors."
2: "the family was murdered for refusing to give up their house to the Russian troops."
3: Only "two soldiers" were prosecuted & sentenced.

"Two soldiers" cannot pointblank execute a family. Soldiers follow orders.

Hence, the soldiers are scapegoats. Putin is protecting his generals. Also, pointblank execution of a whole family for refusing to give up its house WAS A HORRIFIC THREAT to all other families daring similar thoughts. Massacre occurred "just weeks" after the invasion. Putin and his generals deemed it essential to secure the success of the invasion in the early days.

What probably happened is that the father and/or other male seniors of the family were stubborn in refusing to leave the house and hand it over to the Russian army. One thing probably led to another. Russians couldn't leave children as witnesses of what has transpired so that the whole family was executed. Beyond words horrific.

It could have perhaps been an act of a single, rogue general. But why would then Putin protect him and prosecute and sentence just the two soldiers. Truly disgusting and horrific.

It was a family of nine. With children. They had a birthday celebration when the army showed up. That might seem weird that they held a birthday celebration but Ukrainian and Russian people are similar, their languages are very similar too. The family probably didn't suspect such grave, grave actions could occur.

ps And notice the first sentence of the BBC report. That is how Putin manipulates and "massages" the western media too. Presenting himself and his rule as some sort of an enlightened leader/country. Truly despicable behaviour.

pps And in other news Putin does this what you can see below to start psychologically manipulating Trump. As a KGB operative, Putin is huge on that stuff. That's how he works. Psychological manipulation of others especially on the basis of some "dirt" he holds about them:

Not sure Putin has the same hold on Trump as he had 8 years ago. The Russians more than likely do have kompromat on Trump but a video of some prostitutes pissing on him would be written off as AI, and his supporters wouldn’t bat an eyelid even if they believed it was true. Problem is that Trump admires Putin and will get manipulated by him anyway even without the threat of kompromat.
 
Apparently Trump has had the bust of Winston Churchill re-installed in the Whitehouse as he believes he was one of the greatest leaders in history
Perhaps someone can have a word with Trump and convince him this is his chance of emulating Churchill as a great leader of the free world by truly supporting Ukraine, give them all that armour that's sitting in American fields and smash the nazi aggressors
It would also serve as a warning to china
 
I did read that Trump was quite trigger happy with wars and it was his advisors that stopped him. but that could well just be "internet bollocks"

He certainly started a massive attack against Iran but changed his mind while the planes were on the way.
