we are going to spend the money, so all the better we spend it this way so that we DON'T have Americans fighting against oligarchs who are willing to oppress people BEYOND THEIR BORDERS. I hope that highlights that: 1) we don't want Americans fighting meaningless wars; 2) they will have to if we don't supply UKR; 3) your whole critique is bogus because somehow you've convinced yourself that not doing #2 will somehow help us to avoid #1.
^^^^^^^^^ We’re telling Russia that we’re reading their emails. So they’ll switch rings up as the counter offensive starts
That's. Wow. I just can't. I'm sorry but that's awesome. Can't steal valor if you're the one creating it.
God speed. Unfortunately a lot of poor innocent people and soldiers are going to die bc they are following orders or in the wrong place.
Seems Russia just isn’t nearly as competent as we all used to think. Like they’re only good at two things these days 1. Using social media to manipulate other countries 2. Defenestration
Not sure what they’re using for it, but typically you do this kind of thing by flying low or using small aircraft, and using passive GPS guidance or just timed directional changes, so there’s no signal to track and harder to radar to locate. If you send it on a roundabout route you can avoid SAM sites and early warning radars (which are mostly designed to pick up missiles or high-altitude bombers anyway). Not sure that’s how they did it but I’ve seen similar done elsewhere.
If they're going to keep doing it to Kyiv and thinking there'll be no repercussions, hopefully this serves as a wake up call
Down goes an s-400 (command unit). Big trophy for ukraine. A bit shocked Russia has them physically in Ukraine.
Even the Russians implied this AM that this is exactly what happened. Probably GUR figured out where the radars/etc. are and then just flew around them.
We’re in Oslo staying at The Grand Hotel Oslo and someone kept knocking on our door and calling our room for the last half hour. I finally got up and it was a ton of police and bomb sniffing dogs. Apparently a NATO VIP is staying in our room tomorrow night so we had to stand in the hallway for 15 mins while 3 bomb dogs and a bunch of guys searched our room.
