The Official Russian Invasion of Ukraine Thread

"Beyond the battle against uniformed troops and intelligence operatives, Putin would probably face a prolonged guerrilla war from Ukrainian militias. Knowledgeable sources estimate that more than 400,000 pro-Kyiv Ukrainians have received at least some training since Russia's 2014 incursion, and that there are at least 1 million weapons in private hands, including AK-47s and other automatic weapons looted from government stores. As many as 15 militia groups are spread throughout the country some virulently right-wing, but all capable of causing havoc for Moscow (and probably Kyiv, too)."
-David Ignatius

As both America and Russia learned in Afghanistan (and we learned in Vietnam), when a Super Power can't use nukes or otherwise slaughter an entire nation, guerrilla wars are a slow bleed out. Apparently the Far Right Ukrainian militias are psychos. We shall see.

*Naturally, the terrain of Vietnam and Afghanistan provided more favorable conditions for an insurgency.

There is no invasion, or virus, or any other Hook Nosed scare campaigns...

What there is, however, is a serious problem with pitchers and catchers not meeting up on time, and possible reverberant effects...the MLB is obviously targeted b the same folks who've easily managed to board up half the restaurants in town.. :idea:

Yeah pretty much.

Screwy knows in his heart that he can’t defend anything that his boy Blu (Brandon) has done or is doing, so his only play is to continue bringing up the last guy (what’s his name again?) and then projecting / throwing out strawmen / stabbing voodoo dolls.

Sad. He should be taking 1 of those pil/s 6 times a day.

He has caused inflation to explode.

He made us a net importer of oil.

He fucked up the withdrawal from the Stan.

He said anyone responsible for x number of Covid deaths wasn’t fit for office. Then he blew way past x.

He claimed Covid was over in July of 2021.

He forces people arriving by air to have a negative Covid test but not those arriving by land.

He has opened the floodgates on illegal immigration.

He has handcuffed border patrol agents.

He has admitted some of his actions would be found unconstitutional, but went ahead anyway.

He claimed to be a master of the Congressional process and he can’t even get both Chambers which his party controls to pass his signature legislation.

He hardly ever takes questions from the press.

Second, he allowed his cabinet and entire administration to be filled with hooknosed parasites who all hate Russia.

Third, his abysmal first year in office--the dire portent of a midterm blowback the size of Katrina--has necessitated this hysterical and terrifying DISTRACTION.

How is that nothing? Hunter and the millions from corrupt Ukrainians? An entire administration of Russian-hating Jews? The cratered poll numbers for Brandon--which are only getting worse--as well as what must be the horrifying realization on the part of the DNC as to the utter disaster that is Kamaltoe?

More revisionist history from the DeathCult46 apologist. He didn’t have a press conference for 50+ days after taking office. His staff has cut off his mic when he is willing to answer questions. He has said I don’t think I am supposed to take any questions. And on and on and on.

But good to see this is the only thing out of my list you have an issue with. I will take that to mean you find the others all spot on. But of course you say nothing about any of that.

While it is true that Brandon is probably the most feeble president of any of our lifetimes, let's not forget that if the previous guy (R) hadn't been such a monumental fvck-up, he would have won a 2nd term like all of the decent presidents do.
We wouldn't even be having these conversations.

The R's did not offer anything better than Brandon.

Marinate on that.

“I went in yesterday and there was a television screen, and I said, ‘This is genius,’ ” Trump continued. “Putin declares a big portion of the Ukraine — of Ukraine. Putin declares it as independent. Oh, that’s wonderful. So, Putin is now saying, ‘It’s independent,’ a large section of Ukraine. I said, ‘How smart is that?’ And he’s gonna go in and be a peacekeeper. That’s strongest peace force … We could use that on our southern border.”

Their President and Party have failed on damn near everything and a land grab invasion is going down.

Meanwhile the liberals that post here are deflecting away with posts on Cruz and Cheeto while they completely ignore the failures of their heroes. Of course this one of the reasons their party will lose so badly this fall. I mean it isn’t surprising, they have nothing to stand on other than continuing to blame others while Rome crumbles and burns around them.

Trump erroneously said on Fox News on Wednesday that US troops were being deployed in Ukraine.

"No, those are the Russians," the Fox News host Laura Ingraham replied.

Your understanding of history is like a blanket fart in a homeless shelter.

Crimea had been ethnically cleansed by Stalin in 1944, its population of Tartars and Khazars fleeing to Turkey and Romania, while some were resettled in Kazahkstan. And the entire peninsula--actually an island--was repopulated with Russians. One hundred percent. So of course when Putin offered to bring them back into the bosom of mother Russia, the entire Crimean population gladly accepted. The idea that the U.S. or anyone else would impose sanctions because of this is absurd and typical of the internationalist policies and agenda of Obama and his Bolshevik ilk.

What's actually coming clear is that while any direct U.S. or NATO involvement is off the table, all manner of unaccountable participation is wide open. For example, an unlimited fleet of drones arriving and (precisely) targeting Russian aircraft and tanks, all anonymous with no official declarations at all. Sort of like the late '70's (yes, Carter) off the books campaign to give the goat fucking Afghans shoulder-launched Stinger missiles...Soviets folded within six months.

Mikey, the Tartars lived in Crimea and elsewhere in the region before being ethnically cleansed by Stalin--actually his main henchman, Beria, Perhaps a reminder more close to home for you would be John Wayne as Genghis Khan in The Conqueror (1956), where the Duke issues the classically clunky line, "Something in my blood says take the Tartar woman."

One is correct. One may be a “common” mistake but it’s not correct. There is no such thing as a Crimean Tartar. Unless it comes in a jar.

Republicans, and whatever the fuck you are, have been wrong about a whole lot of things lately. Common mistakes only because you all do it a lot. That doesn’t make them (and you) somehow correct. Just ignorant.

Get a fucking clue.
