Russia & Ukraine

Discussion in 'Politics' started by UsualName, Jan 18, 2022.

  1. Ukraine can not win against Russia, you guys are so stupid. Russia, no matter what you believe, is a nuclear power and Ukraine is not. Just like USA bombed the fuck out of Japan using nukes and that resulted in capitulation of Japan, ultimately same will likely happen in Ukraine. The West supplying weapons and intel to Ukraine just postpones this, doesn’t change it, your goal is not to help Ukraine but to weaken Russia.

    I'd probably not bet on the nukes all not working but I'd not be surprised if they are down to handfuls they can rely on. My recall of americium is it results in more dangerous gamma rays so handling becomes risky more than it would seriously damage the pit too quickly.

    U.S. Nuclear Weapons More Stable than Expected

    Can you picture Pu saying "My dad is bigger than yours" in school? High school. :)

    Just watching this piece in part discussing how Russia invariably overestimates itself going back centuries. As he says, Russia is a very impressive place in many fields, just not as good as the West, their lies to themselves wreck them.

    Russia has an enormous inferiority complex. Going back centuries. From Peter the Great's time to our days. I grew up there, I know it well. It is pathological.

    What makes you think that if Russia used nuclear weapons in Ukraine that Russia wouldn’t be completely blacked out and then blown out of existence 30 seconds after that?

  9. As I have said coupla times before, without taking away from the Ukrainians when those generals are killed or warships go down, the Ukrainians are talking to Americans in bunkers in North Dakota missile sites who are giving coordinates and flying drones in Ukraine with joysticks in North Dakota to take out tanks.

    There is going to be some supply line stuff taken out deep into Russia too. You will be amazed how up to speed the Ukrainians are......especially when the military in the US is right there with them, virtually.

    U.S. intel helped Ukraine protect air defenses, shoot down Russian plane carrying hundreds of troops
    Ukrainian forces have used specific coordinates shared by the U.S. to direct fire on Russian positions and aircraft, current and former officials tell NBC News.

    I liked Elon before. Now I love the guy.




    "I want to say one thing:@elonmusk's Starlink is what changed the war in #Ukraine's favour. #Russia went out of its way to blow up all our comms. Now they can't. Starlink works under Katyusha fire, under artillery fire. It even works in Mariupol."
