The new Verdun / Stalingrad is still ongoing, Russia throwing away aprox 600 lives a day there
"Neutral" Switzerland benefited a lot from Nazi gold and art confiscated from Jews who then lost their lives. And, when found out long after the fact, fought like hell against returning any of it.
Daily Caller and Tucker Carlson Putin is getting his money’s worth.I happened across this just after @Commodus 's post (talking points straight from Moscow - almost unbelievable):
. . .It is said to be the most popular news anchor in the US. Is this true? And do many of his viewers agree with what he says?
Also, Tucker is by no definition is a "News" host, nor does he even claim to be such. He is the host of a political opinion / entertainment show "that no reasonable viewer would take seriously", as formally declared by Fox News, to avoid any liability for his incessant lies.. . .
They put him into a special category to claim that. "Cable News Host".
The normal channels are not considered "cable news" so they are not counted against him.
To put Tucker in perspective, on a good night he has 4.5 million viewers.
That is 1% of the population.
This isn't Russia. A person can be the biggest "cable news host" and still be a pathetic joke.
Putin's really letting himself go if he's appear on state television drunk
Sadly some bad news:
Lets hope the Ukrainians can hold Bakhmut.
Biden from the US is ploughing billions of dollars in and obviously it’s not universally popular in the states with the Trumpanzee Seditionites.
Unsure if the funding and support continues in the next month.
Other than UK and Germany, the other big EU countries like France doing little and I think they are hedging their bets to ensure if Putin wins or even draws they will get the gas turned back on.
Switzerland obviously playing the neutral friend of the Nazis card.
Hungary is being a major thorn in NATO's side blocking things everywhere and giving info to Putin. Might not surprise me if we need a new NATO 2022 and beyond alliance.. (without Hungary)
Time to cross fingers and hope Ukraine gets enough support to hold out for a win!
Sadly some bad news:
Lets hope the Ukrainians can hold Bakhmut.
DNR de facto independent for 8 years. The population was overwhelmingly against Ukraine (because of the constant shelling and the attitude of Ukrainians when they visited them). The deceased deputy was elected by the locals and dealt with social issues. To call her a collaborator is to justify terrorist shelling of civilians. Which, by the way, happens every day. The Ukrainian forces retaliate against the people of Donetsk for their failures on the front with shelling every day. Several dozen civilians (not collaboraters) die every week. At the same time, Ukraine mass media cynically call this "Russian shelling" and people laughing at comments. By the way, the English version of the article about the dead children of Donbass (Angel Alley) was recently removed from Wikipedia. Do you know why?also, collaborator was killed in DNR
Sure thing tankie. If it was really the case drones and himars would be smashing Russian artillery.For the last couple of weeks, Russian war correspondents on Telegram have been describing the situation with restrained optimism. According to them, the Ukrainian side is suffering far greater losses in the "Bakhmut meat grinder", as the ratio of forces in artillery is 1:9 (words of Arestovych). Ukrainian channels, where the authors allow themselves to express their critical opinion, confirm the information about the difficult situation and the possible abandonment of Bakhmut, which would be a disaster for the entire front. At the very least, the depletion of the reserves being transferred here puts an end to Ukrainian plans for a counter-offensive in Crimea or other directions this winter
If you don’t like terrorist attacks against civilians you’re going to be so mad when you hear about this country called Russia.DNR de facto independent for 8 years.

I've been taught the word "whataboutism" here at forum. I assume this is an example?If you don’t like terrorist attacks against civilians you’re going to be so mad when you hear about this country called Russia.
Do not underestimate your enemy and overestimate your weapons. All reports say that artillery changes its position after a few minutes of fire. Neither himars nor drones will have time to hit the target in such a time. Their strength lies in their ability to destroy warehouses and logistics routes, not in counter-battery fightingSure thing tankie. If it was really the case drones and himars would be smashing Russian artillery.
I'm not sure I would call him opinionated as much as a fox sponsored political operative...Carlson is no News Anchor.
He is an over opinionated big mouth and bloviator.
Propaganda is not a one way street, you can't have it both ways..Do you know why?
Link?
Putin doesn't drink, though he'll partake in the odd toast here and there. Now would be a bad time to start sense he's trying to stick around as long as possible. I've heard he's been on a lot of drugs for pain and nausea. Pic I saw of him couple days ago it looked like he had make up on his hands, which makes me think there's something to those reports of his hands turning purple and black due to injection treatments.
Then why have your military commanders been using them to target civilian structures, parks, etc?Do not underestimate your enemy and overestimate your weapons.

If the aim was to destroy cities with populations, it would be done differently. As far as I understand, the goal is to defeat the enemy armed forces. Sometimes they hide among houses, in schools, hospitals and parks (there is plenty of photo evidence). In such cases, firing at such targets is legitimate under international agreements.Then why have your military commanders been using them to target civilian structures, parks, etc?
