i look at the shit...i don't like it, but it's part of the deal. not looking at it is whitewashing the war in your own mind..."LALALA THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN LALALA..."...it did happen, it's part of the consequences, and it can't be avoided.
you don't have to post it here, there are rules and they should be followed, but i personally don't shy away from seeing the consequences of our actions. i don't seek it out, but if i come across it, i look at it. even though it's an enemy, i still feel sad at what people can do to each other, usually to satisfy some old men with grudges that existed before the young men they're sacrificing were born. it keeps the war real for me, in a way just reading news stories doesn't.
i look at the stuff too....but i take personal resposibility for re-post....some that i've come across, i will not re-post cause of the reprocusions.....war is war...the good, the bad, and the ugly.......

nice read....

the problem is that anyone in a position to replace putin, is too much like putin. they'll need to hold referendums, real ones, and pick a new leader, who will have to pick a whole new cabinet, and they're still going to be from a system that has been corrupt for it's entire existence...

Medvedev revealed how Russia will respond to the decision on reparations to Ukraine
If the UN resolution on the payment of reparations from the blocked reserves of the Russian Federation comes into force, the country will have to withdraw money from foreign investors whose capital is in Russia. This was stated by Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev. He called the West's decision "hostile and sucked out of a known place."

“If, based on the decision of the UN General Assembly, sucked out by enemy countries from a known place, national acts are adopted on the theft of Russian assets, we will have no choice. It will be necessary to irrevocably withdraw the money and property of private investors from such countries, although they are not responsible for the fools of their governments. They (money and other valuables) in our country, by a happy coincidence, just more than 300 billion dollars. Enough to make up for what was stolen from Russia,” Medvedev wrote on his telegram channel.

Earlier it was reported that the General Assembly of the United Nations (UNGA) adopted a resolution on the recovery of reparations from Russia. Russian Permanent Representative to the UN Vasily Nebenzya called the resolution on reparations null and void and legally illiterate . His colleague from Belarus , Valentin Rybakov , said that this project is a way to legalize the theft of other people's assets. And presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov called the resolution "a robbery of Russian reserves."

It's confirmed and the Poles will be pissed, accident or not, sorry I meant to kill your neighbor not you, doesn't go over very well. They will want those responsible to be held to account, in Poland and that might include Vlad himself indicted for murder.

Russian missiles reportedly cross into Poland, killing two
Russian missiles killed two people after crossing into Poland, according to a U.S. intelligence official, sparking fears of an escalation of the war in Ukraine.

Polish officials did not confirm the strike, but said top leaders were holding an emergency meeting due to a “crisis situation.”

The missiles reportedly killed two people near a grain silo in a village on the Ukraine border.

Pentagon press secretary Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder said it was “aware” of reports that missiles had struck inside Poland.

“I can tell you that we don’t have any information at this time to corroborate those reports and are looking into this further,” he said.

It’s unclear whether the strike was intentional or a mistake, and the Kremlin has yet to comment on the situation.

Poland, unlike Ukriane, is a NATO member, meaning that an attack on the country would theoretically trigger “Article 5” and prompt a full military response from the alliance.

President Biden has repeatedly said that the U.S. will not directly engage in Ukraine, but that it would defend “every inch” of NATO territory.





“We have a sacred obligation,” he said during a speech in Poland in March. “We have a sacred obligation under Article 5 to defend each and every inch of NATO territory with the full force of our collective power.”

Looks like those SCALP cruise missiles could be delivered to Ukraine early, among other things to hasten Vlad's withdrawal and destroy more of his remaining army. The Poles will make him feel the pain, of that you can be sure. I don't think it rises to article 5, but the Poles could decide to go it alone into Ukraine, via Belarus, with NATO logistical support. Did the missile come from Belarus or the Black Sea?

that's what i'm trying to find out....from some reports the RA was trying to stike a electric plant in a place called Kovel, and if you look at the maps, it's north west area towards the Bel border and not far from the Pol border..... imo i think it missed it's target.....or UA shot it down....reports are still coming in though
