some other country used drones to take out 1/3 of our nuclear bombers? I think it would probably provoke a more aggressive response than the destruction of the WTC on 9/11. Putin is going to respond in a very ugly way, I fear. Oh, and France.

Not awful yet but soon will be here. The state’s largest provider just had to destroy 95% of its flock (6 million birds) due to avian flu.

A bird in the hand is worth six million in the euthanization chamber.
Don't count your chickens before they are vaccinated.
Birds of a feather suffocate together.
Early worms get the bird.

Not bad but a bit surface level.

A better reference is the underrated 2010 horror classic, Birdemic. Available on Amazon Prime. Highly recommend.

Not lining up well.

South Korea is about to "elect" a CCP pawn as their new leader, (Poptart?) providing China influence without firing a shot. They're eyeballing Taiwan so taking control of that piece of land will kind of give them control over the globe's chip industry. Russia meanwhile is evaluating options and Lindsay Graham is strutting around IN Ukraine talking about how weak Russia is.

The U.S. position of the attack is they had no prior knowledge. Weird since the US & German intel has been in Weisbaden controlling tactics since early Biden handler regime. So does Putin buy that team Trump had NO prior knowledge? Is it possible that the "Deep State" has been in planning w/o Admin knowledge? Radcliffe says I dunno. Intel?

China, Russia, both Koreas, Iran saying fuckoff.....

Starmer, Macron, new German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, plus the unelected EU apparatus under Ursula von der Leyen all seem to be avid for war with Russia. They are insane, of course, and not just because their combined militaries are a joke. They stirred the pot badly over the weekend, helping Ukraine carry out drone attacks against Russian air defense bases as far afield as Siberia and outside Murmansk, way up north on the Barents Sea. The bold attack was apparently carried out after a year-and-a-half of planning, using tractor-trailer trucks to transport concealed drones in on-board shipping containers deep into Russia. The drones took out Russian aircraft enabled to launch cruise missiles and long-range radar detection planes, all tolled estimated at $7-billion damage. The gambit would have required NATO satellite targeting assistance.

You might recall a week ago, Chancellor Merz declared that Germany gave Ukraine “permission” to carry out long-range strikes into Russia. Smooth move, Friedrich. He is, apparently, unaware that in so-doing he automatically gave Russia permission to strike deep into Germany as well, which Russia has not yet done. Instead, it replied with missile strikes against Odesa, Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovsk, and Kyiv, little more than a routine smack-back, but perhaps an ominous prelude to worse in the offing.

You understand that things are escalating steeply now in this conflict. A lot of high ranking officials in Russia have lost patience with Mr. Putin’s slow-moving, on-the-ground grind and refusal so far to inflict more serious damage on the Ukrainian capital, which he could turn into an ashtray on a half-hour’s notice, if required. You might suppose he has sought strategically to avoid the total destruction of this cousin-country so that it would not be a failed state in the aftermath of war. It would be to Russia’s advantage if Ukraine could function as a neutralized, sovereign, self-supporting buffer state rather than an ungovernable basket-case / money pit region harboring non-state terrorists of various stripes. The former outcome is surely still preferable to the latter, despite the most recent provocations.

All of this puts Mr. Trump in a bind. His efforts to negotiate peace are on-the-rocks for now, as is his (America’s) ability to control the maniac globalist warmongers of NATO. Many in the US, and Mr. Trump himself, make noises about backing off the big mess altogether and dissociating from a NATO alliance that has lost its purpose and meaning, becoming, in fact, a menace to our interests.

I doubt it. That didn't work and his ground game is not good. I suspect it will involve Zelensky being buried under an enormous amount of rubble.

It won't be good. There are no good options here. Joetato and his dipshits wanted a war. They've got it. Wars are not good for those who actually fight them. They are good for the people who profit from them. Trump wants to reel in the Pentagon and shut down the U.S. war machine. There are many with interests in positions of power that have a different opinion. Are you planning to send any of your kids over there?

He spent the last week trying to do that. This was the Ukrainian response to his attacks on Kiev and other civilian targets. He's not going to do shit about it because he can't do anything that he isn't already doing.

This was a demonstration of leverage. Putin walked away from the negotiating table and now his (some of his aged) strategic bombers are flaming wreckage. This wasn't an escalation. It was a warning.

A Putin apologist must be someone who doesn't think its a good idea for any person's child to get ground up on either side of the line. But you are apparently chill with other people's kids getting zotzed because, because, well, fuck, because what? If it is so important to stand up to Putin on behalf of the corrupt Ukraine, why wouldn't you send your own kids there?

I’m not going to say “white flag,” but nice non-answer.

You apparently believe that sovereign countries have no right, or at least shouldn’t bother, to defend themselves and, since Putin apparently puts no value on Russian lives, any country that he rolls into should just roll over and say UNCLE.

And Russia isn't corrupt? Pootin and his drunken retards thought that rolling Ukraine would be a quick smash and grab. Um, wrong.

He's got a mountain of dead, ass-fingering shit goblins, his Black Sea fleet is resting comfortably at the bottom of said sea and now his strategic air fleet is smoldering wreckage days after he smugly walked away from the table thinking that he had cards.

Once, there was a board war between the vent and TNW. SCIII was the main battle ground. There was a commentary thread about the hostilities at the time. In said thread, Roger_the_shrubber said that he's "the voice of reason".

Maybe I’m getting soft in my old age. But we were told by those in the strategic intelligence business that Iraq had WMD’s and lots of other things that have not turned out to be accurate (maybe I should post a pic of a C-17 draped with Afghans?). Maybe the Ruskies will zotz Putin themselves and get someone else in there we can deal with. Or maybe this shit will escalate. Dunno.

I laughed.

If you think WE provided the intelligence on this op... you aren't very bright.

There's only one intelligence agency in the world that could pull off this operation and it wasn't us.

Take a wild guess.

Ukraine has a long and rich history with Jewish communities. At one time, it was home to one of the largest Jewish populations in Europe
Ukraine boasts a significant number of Jewish heritage sites, reflecting the long and diverse history of Jewish life in the country.



WE can't even land our jets on our aircraft carriers without them falling into the Red Sea. Let alone take out the Houthis when we're parked right next to Yemen.

Yet, another operation that TACO failed to finish and caved to the terrorists once again.

Trump spent over $1 billion bombing Yemen, and accomplished exactly…what? Besides a chance for the Cheeto to wave his little dick in public and impress the gullible MAGAt sycophants.

I wonder how much it cost Zelensky to put together and release his horde of Crimean Tatar drones and take out a large portion of Putin’s strategic air capability, almost 3,000 miles inside Russia.
