Ghen ghen! Beautiful! See our Frontline troops deserve all the protection they need in the field. The soft skinned Hilux, while respected, simply won't cut it. Give it to the rear-end folks.

Russia is more times bigger than Ukraine, has a bigger military than Ukraine, had more troops than Ukraine, has more tanks, aircrafts, ships etc than Ukraine. Has a bigger defence budget than Ukraine. Has a bigger and better defence industry than Ukraine
Even with US military aid. The Russian dwarfs the Ukrainians in military spending.

The Russians are also receiving military weapons from North Korea and Iran, with North Korea even sending troops.

Keep wallowing in the pool of ignorance.
Russia is a big disgrace


If the Russians had launched the SMO in 2014, we wouldn't be having this argument as the Russians would've have probably steamrolled through Ukraine. The west clearly learnt from the mistake with Georgia during the 2008 Russo-Georgian war, hence the large amount of funding, trying, weapons, ammo, Intel, etc poured into Ukraine. The Ukrainian military of 2022 was, hands down, a totally different beast that could EASILY rival some NATO forces in Europe. To add to that, it is ACTIVELY backed by the USA, UK, and co. Now THAT is what the Russians are fighting, not some 3rd world crippled military/militias usually faced/bullied around by a US-led coalition. And you know what? The Russians made initial advances, faltered, quietly learnt from mistakes, ADAPTED, and are now kicking a$$ in Ukraine.

So you can wake up to reality on ground, OR continue to bury your head in the sand because Hollywood, Gen. Petreaus and co told you Ukraine is "winning". But hey, whatever makes you sleep easy.

Your stating that the "empire building" brouhaha is coming up after the 2022 invasion shows you ain't really deep.
What about Georgia? Was that also post 2022?
How many times has Pootin reiterated it that the independence of Ukraine was a mistake which he has vowed to rectify?
You should read deeper.

You mentioning Georgia clearly shows a lack of understanding on your part. If you had followed or read about the 2007/8 Munich Security meeting, especially Putin's warning during his speech, followed by the 2008 Russo-Georgian war that followed, then I doubt you would've arrived at your conclusions. Btw on the 2008 war, Georgia's Sakaarsvili, emboldened by the Bush Jnr Administration, instigated that war by first launching Ossentia and Abkhazia. Then they got the Russians involved by launching strikes on Russian PEACEKEEPERS, hence the a$$whooping and mental breakdown/tie-chewing that followed courtesy of the Russian Armed Forces. I guess you "forgot" that part, or failed to read about it.....right?

Recapturing in 5 months, a supposedly world power
😅😅🤣😅😅😅


The Russians are fighting a new peer adversary backed up by a military alliance of 30+ rich & powerful countries supplying said adversary with tonnes of funding, weapons, training, intelligence, etc. When last did the collective west face that? Last time they faced some sandal-wearing goat herders in Afghanistan, they (NATO-ISAF) lost in the most humiliating way.

Probably no major Russian offensive yet. The Russians are still using them though.

When Lithuania was defending her independence from Moscow, we were asked by Western powers to "pause" our struggle, to protect russia from collapse. If we had listened, our country might not exist today. Sometimes fighting is the only way to win. ~ Gabrielus Landsbergies
Every sane individual or country know Russia for who it is. You must be really daft if you still believe Ukraine is wrong.

What a pile of horse poopoo. What folks like you need to understand is that the Era of the USSR is OVER. The Russian Federation is NOT the USSR. With it's massive and resource-rich landmass, why will the Russian Federation be interested in retaking Lithuania or any Baltic nation? It makes ZERO SENSE. This whole "empire rebuilding" coming from the west, especially from the small Baltic countries came up just after the 2022 invasion. What the west refuses to understand is that the Russian Federation is only interested in a single issue that has been the sole cause of this whole mess, and that is NATO's eastward expansion, hence Russia's reaction after DECADES of warnings that went unheeded.

Kursk is currently trending grin grin

Close to five months now Russia is still trying to dislodge a fragment of Ukrainians in Russia territory,
The Ukrainians even started a surprise offensive today..

This is the same Russian army that wants to face off against a well motivated well trained and well armed US military.

😅😅🤣

5 months ago, total Kursk territory captured by the Ukrainians was about 1000km² Today it's just 400km².........yep, I think the Russians are making good progress recapturing ground.

2. It makes no sense to fight for a country/govt whose military were unwilling to fight. It's just an absolute waste of time.

2 questions:

1. You're aware the Russians have an ongoing SMO, right?

2. Why will the Russians fight for an ally that won't even fight for themselves? The Russians provided air power, but that won't do jackshyte without a ground force. Come to think of it, how come the USA & NATO-ISAF didn't fight for the defunct Afghan Govt when the Taliban were approaching the gates of Kabul? Curious..

Russia should stop the rebels from advancing. And save us all from terrorist attacks

I think it may be too late. Russia may have the airport, but troops are desperately. I don't know if Wagner troops have arrived; even if they do, I doubt they have the numbers, and I'm fairly certain those Russian KSSO teams that wrecked havoc on the rebels are busy in Ukraine.

The fact that the West is openly supporting this regime change should ring alarm bells. Like rebranding a terror organization as a rebel unit and savior of the country from the so called 'evil' Assad is crazy.

On the Syrian matter, I have to ask....where is the once-vaunted Syrian Republican Guard that kept the Syrian rebel groups at bay before help arrived during the early years of the civil war? Why didn't Assad entrust the front lines to them rather than the SAA.

Btw what happens to Latakia & the Tartus Naval base? Will Russia still hold on to the base and tge region like tge Americans at the North East region & oilfield?

Anyway, this is a major shocker.

I'm not so sure about your post. I have a prepaid meter installed at my home and we just completed a 4-storey shopping complex with 48 pre-paid meters installed (1 per shop). So year, pre-paid meters are available. That said, things may be different with your region's DISCO.

Not surprised.....the fact is after years of thinking power was cheap, we are waking up to the cold reality.

I'll leave this post i made earlier




The fact is, if we want power, we got to pay for it at high prices. But most of us don't want to because we won't be able to afford the prices needed to kick start the sector.


I think pre-paid meters can address the issue of collection availability. Make the pre-paid meters readily available and let customers pay as the use power. Simple....I think..

Actually it's real. The slain individual was part of a Ukrainian DGR intercepted by the Russian FSB in Bryansk. That said, I don't think he's Navy Seal because he has a "Ranger" tattoo. So I think US Army 75th Ranger Battalion or maybe ex Green Beret (SFOD-Alpha,).

There's absolutely no way such a huge strike package would've been concealed. Then again I may be wrong and we don't know. I definitely concure that everyone wait till more info on the Isreali strikes are released.
