But the reason they are there is to liberate the people from the Nazis. If they send them to the Nazi West that defeats s the whole point of going to war.

Gerald Bull was real enough to be assassinated but the giant gun was dumb,a single plane could take it out. Bull thought eventually he might be able to launch satellites with the tech,bad move getting involved with Saddam.

That shit might have worked in the Stalin era, but we've got way more dense and robust communications these days. The Russians still use unencrypted analog military radios and have them installed in their equipment. The Ukrainians will or are broadcasting propaganda and highly effective psychological warfare (the truth) on their military radios, walking over their communications and spreading news to conscripts bored in military vehicles. I imagine they have small portable units that can be spread around and left unattended with MP3 players, they would be mined or ambushed for those seeking to silence them, even from the air.

They still get the internet in Russia and there are many ways for bad news to travel and Russia will have a lot of bad news soon. We've seen the "political" protestors arrested, the next wave will be economic protestors and there will be a lot more of them with sympathetic cops. We all know what sympathetic cops are like from our recent experiences.

When the shooting starts between Saudi Arabia and Iran the world will lose 11,000,000 barrels a day and add at least $100 a barrel to oil cost.

Ukraine says more 20,000 foreign volunteers want to join special unit to combat Russian forces
From CNN staff
The Ukrainian Defense Ministry says it has created a special unit — the International Legion — which has already started to carry out combat missions to counter Russian aggression.
More than 20,000 volunteers and veterans from 52 countries have expressed their desire to join, according to Brigadier General Kyrylo Budanov, commander of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry that will run this legion.
Burdanov expressed his gratitude to the fighters and said they are mostly experienced fighters who have participated in many peacekeeping campaigns around the world.

"Any help is worth its weight in gold," he said.


this would make it 36,000 in total....

Ukraine Conflict Update 16
Mar 6, 2022 - Press ISW

The military situation on the ground has not changed significantly in the past 24 hours. Russian forces continue to mass for renewed offensive operations east and west of Kyiv, west of Kharkiv, and toward Mykolayiv-Odesa but have not yet initiated new large-scale ground attacks. Russia has increased aerial and artillery/rocket attacks on civilian positions and infrastructure, including known evacuation corridors. Ukrainian forces reportedly conducted their second counterattack in two days, this time near Mariupol. The Ukrainian air force and air defense forces continue to operate, inflicting damage on Russian ground forces and disrupting Russian air and missile operations.

Explainer on Russian Conscription, Reserve, and Mobilization
Mar 5, 2022 - Press ISW

The Russian military is a hybrid format combining a traditional cadre-and-reserve conscript system and a contract-professional system. While the Russian Army has made efforts to professionalize its ranks, particularly in the last 15 years, it remains reliant on conscripts, both for its active-duty force and for its reserve forces in the event of general mobilization. Most combat units must be filled out by conscripts or mobilized reservists in order to be combat-capable. Contract soldiers are concentrated in the cadre and elite units, especially the airborne units.
