    I wonder if these were involved in the attacks against russian targets in Crimea? Everybody's been wondering just how exactly the Ukrainians pulled those off, and something like that could easily sneak past Russia's radar detection and aerial defenses. 21st century inventions have verily changed warfare, and how wars are being fought. And I think for the better. Now even smaller countries like Ukraine have the ability to strike critical blows with relatively cheap investments.

    Anyway, August 24th. Exactly 6 months to date, and Ukraine is still here as a free, independent, sovereign country. Battered and bruised for sure, but this situation is fantastic when you think that 6 months ago everybody and their mother were absolutely convinced that Ukraine was fucked, and done for as a country. Even I myself feared the worst. But here we are: Ukraine isn't going anywhere. Their brave soldiers and leadership have demonstrated absolutely incredible courage and resolve not to be taken by an invading enemy force, and possibly stopped in its tracks an attack that would've threatened all of Europe, if allowed to go unchecked. I am but a small, insignificant little man compared to these absolute heroes.

    At the same time, russia has made a complete joke of themselves. Their army turned out to be a paper tiger against any serious resistance. EU and NATO weren't weak and didn't collapse, like putler predicted. In fact, NATO is now in the process of accepting two new members. And now people in putin's inner circle of friends are being murdered. Darya Dugina, the daughter of one alexander dugin, putin's friend, advisor, and a fanatical supporter of this war, was car bombed last Saturday, while daddy alexander saw the whole thing. And I have a feeling this is just the beginning. It's been reported that partisan activity on russian soil is now on the rise, and that the operators could be russian citizens who got tired of this shit and want it to end. I personally hope that putin never sleeps a restful night of sleep ever again, until his corpse is carried to the grave. Hopefully an unmarked, mass one, where they dump executed war criminals. Grow eyes to the back of your head, you suka blyat motherfucker. You're gonna need them.

    Slava Ukraini.

    I saw a report, on CBS news, that the assassination of the daughter of Putin's friend was not done by the Ukranians, but by an internal group opposed to Putin.

    Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu has been removed from operational command of the russian army after numerous failures in Ukraine. vladimir putin is now in direct command of the rus forces. How will this affect the "special operation"? putler himself lacks any military training and his plans have so far been utter disasters.

    Shoigu removed from command of troops in Ukraine - intelligence - The Saxon

    In the meanwhile, Ukraine is now attempting a counter offensive near Herson with the goal of trying to seize the town back.

    According to reports, the Ukrainians have deployed a rather ingenious tactic, where they've built look-a-like mock ups of the actual HIMARS missile systems, and fooled the russians into wasting their missiles by tricking them into shooting these fake targets instead of the real things. The level of trolling that they've managed during this war so far has been amazing.

    Russian Defector Describes Putin’s Military in Disarray in Ukraine

    He wrote a book describing a Russian military so ill-prepared when it invaded Ukraine that he didn’t know his unit had entered the country until he awoke to the sound of artillery fire

    Now 34-year-old Pavel Filatiev, who says he was a paratrooper in Russia’s military, is seeking political asylum in France after arriving there last weekend. He has been greeted as a hero by some in the West, his book embraced by Kremlin opponents as proof of what he has called a “terrible war.”

    We had no moral right to attack another country, especially the people closest to us,” he writes in the book, which he self-published on VKontakte, a Russian social media network, in August. “We started a terrible war,” he writes, “a war in which cities are destroyed and which leads to the deaths of children, women and the elderly.”

    “ZOV” describes a chaotic Russian army in which demoralized recruits were equipped with rusty guns and ill-fitting uniforms. On Feb. 24, the day the invasion began, Mr. Filatiev writes that he and other soldiers were shocked to learn they were invading Ukraine.
