War in Ukraine

[NCFisher]

Trump will blame Biden because it's politically expedient. Trump doesn't do anything that's not good for Trump.

So that's why he lost half his wealth while working for free; doing what's good for him.
Deviously clever.

Realizing we actually legit, non-trolling Putin apologists inside of VN...

 

[InVOLuntary]

I wouldn't be surprised in the least if it is found that we the US have been funding bioweapon research in Ukraine and elsewhere.

Really going out on a limb there aren't you?

 

[Septic]

Wow. I was wrong. You're not a tool. You are the entire toolshed.

I'll wear your assessment like a badge of honor, comrade.

 

[0nelilreb]

I could see the US funding the study of left over USSR bio labs. Great information, antidotes, etc...
It would almost be crazy not to.

To be honest , just based off the fact that we witnessed an unmarked truck carrying monkeys with Covid during “ a world wide pandemic “ across multiple states lines with the intention of hiding them from public view inside our own country , and the story completely disappeared … I don’t have any problems believing anything we are involved in abroad .

 

[TVOLS]

I’ve been following this like you guys. Seems things are getting worse.

I'm no expert on those small countries as far as friend or foe, but if this does happen be interesting if it just keeps expanding and a country joins Ukraine side militarily and etc....

It looks like he did lose some money but don''t think for a minute he wasn't involved in Trump businesses.

You're cancelled. No, you're cancelled.

I think Belarus will either go in and help take Kyiv or try to cut off weapons supplies in the west. We’ll see if NATO keeps on the sidelines.

 

[tvolsfan]

And there are many making the choice to go back to Ukraine to join the fight with full knowledge of the situation. To me, that adds validity to the Ukrainian side.

Really advanced CIA coup.

 

[OrangeTsar]

Wonder what the implications are for Russia’s food supplies in the fall if Ukrainian conflict prevents agricultural planting this spring?

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

Supposedly the active ones are joint venture US.

But there are left over USSR ones as you say.

Correct... leftover Soviet labs that had bioweapons and biological materials. And they were fully are of this.

So, after double flip-flopping on MIGs to Ukraine, will Biden hold pat?

It's doubtful they ever intended to, despite public musings. I think Biden is all in on pushing the narrative that if Putin loses in Ukraine or bogged down against insurgency he may escalate and go nuclear, which I think highly unlikely or that he'd reach the button without getting whacked. I question whether the Biden admin even believes it, or if they do, isn't Graham's statement that the best outcome is Putin getting whacked an even more desirable outcome? Yes.

It certainly gives them cover to not send MIGs with which Ukraine might be able to destroy or severely damage the convoy and would likely turn the war. The Biden WH doesn't want them to have that capability.

If they don't believe the narrative, why would they want Russia to absorb them except they think they can appease Russia with their new buffer nation? Despite Putin telling the world last year he wants to remake the Soviet Union? So, containment makes no sense. Has Biden already bartered off Ukraine anyway?

There are a lot of Biden skeletons banging around in the Ukrainian closet. Their China business has certainly compromised Biden,, yet Biden shares intel re: Russia with China and tells them not to kiss and tell, knowing they will. I think it possible to likely that Biden is compromised with Russia, too, via Ukraine and China.

The EU, not U.S. has led on virtually every move against Russia and in stronger fashion. Unless you believe that they believe Putin escalates to nukes, you have to ask why because our response does not make sense.

Come to the thread about calling someone a N word means you should be able to be killed by said person

Link?

Half is not 'some', and yes, I'll think that until you reveal where he recovers that half, by estimates from Bloomberg and BI to be a $1.5 - $2B loss.

As a former 91k (now a 68k) in the Army, I can tell you that a medical lab and a biomedical lab look the same.

Interesting MOS jump - are our med labs on tank turrets now? lol

Well as a 68k, you should know - wouldnt there be more cryo and containment equipment in a BSL3 or BSL4 lab (pressure suits and the like)? also, it was a children's hospital, not a lab really but I grant you, probably the same equip for a low level lab in every hospital.

Okay.
How does that translate to the U.S. endangering another nuclear superpower, or negate that Putin has stated he intends to remake the USSR?

 

[Electric Orange]

Tells you all you need to know.

Why Russia is struggling in the air...

Apparently Poland provided Ukraine with its most modern MANPADs prior to the war. These Piorun missiles are knocking out both Russian helos and SU-25 Frogfoot close air support jets (akin to our A-10s). Also, Ukraine's S-300 AA systems still appear intact as a threat to MIG type fighters. Further, as Russia (amazingly) has only a limited supply of guided (JDAM type) bombs, this situation collectively appears to be causing Russia fits and preventing air superiority and widescale precise bombing. This also means ground troops are rolling without significant (or any) air support.

Net/Net: Russia clusterf*ck.

So?
