Russia invades Ukraine Feb 2022

Trump saying he doesn't understand what Putins doing, he's lost it!. Maybe the idiot realise he's been played from Day 1.

He's in Putins pocket, that's why.

This was a spectacular trojan horse operation from Ukraine.
Three years ago, Russia thought they'd take Ukraine in 3 days by sending a few jeeps and rusty tanks to Kyiv.
I doubt they ever pondered so much of their military hardware would be wiped out and the country brought to its knees economically.
Unfortunately, Putin will fight on until he has wasted every last orc. It's an existential battle for him and the other arms of his mafia state.


In a spectacular attack planned over 18 months, Ukrainian agents moved drones and explosives deep inside Russia to strike four airbases

A Ukrainian drone attack has destroyed billions of dollars worth of Russian aircraft stationed at bases across the country, including at locations as far away as Siberia, in what Kyiv claims is its longest-range assault of the war.

The spectacular operation, known as Spiderweb, was prepared in secret over 18 months. Ukraine's agents moved short-range drones and explosives inside Russia before they were launched remotely for a coordinated strike on Sunday that was intended to strike at Moscow's air superiority.


A drone used in the attack
Vasyl Maliuk, the head of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), said drones were smuggled into Russia and placed inside containers, which were later loaded on to trucks.

With the trucks positioned near Russian bases, the roof panels of the containers were lifted off by a remotely activated mechanism, allowing the drones to fly out and begin their attack. The drones had first-person view, or FPV, technology that allowed them to be operated remotely, probably from Ukrainian territory.

The main reason I'd say why Putin's Kremlin keeps mum  is that  any usage of this incident as provocation for escalation will only empower the more fanatical Ruzzist wing which could endanger Putin's delicate hold on the strings of power.  The talks in Turkey on Monday could have featured speeches about Ukraine pushing the world towards WW3, followed by a list of ridiculous demands to "hold the terrorists responsible", then storming out of the meeting.  There are no big threats being made by Putin or the usual suspects. Instead, evidence shows that Putin is trying to bury that the attack ever happened or that it was successful. Exactly what happened after HIMARS, F-16s, Patriots, you name it.

I see that Ukraine hit the Kerch bridge today. It is harder to destroy than a plane, but it will further annoy Putin.

"Overall, a high of 250,000 Russian soldiers have died in Ukraine, with over 950,000 total Russian casualties," notes a study by the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), an American think tank based in Washington, DC.

Russia seem to be getting a bit pissed off with the brits. I heard an interview with some spokesman on the radio talking about the UK influence on whatever that strike was that seemed to be a significant blow to them.

Russian apologist and propagandist Jeffry Sachs - promoted heavily on this board by a certain poster, appearing at Tsargrad 2025 alongside the likes of Errol Musk, Alex Jones, George Galloway (vomit), Max Blumnethal, not to mention the genocidal Sergei Lavrov and various Russian Oligarchs.

A reminder that the murder of Ukrainian civilians continues day in - day out by Russia, aided and abetted by Iran.

For those of you that have a sneaking regard for Russia - hang your heads in shame. You know who you are.

Their son is buried in the rubble:

Odesa today:

The work of Russia, aided and abetted by Iran.

Meanwhile, the Taco won't SELL air defence capability to Ukraine and thinks Russia should still be in the G7 group.

Must blow the minds of some of the closet Russia/Iran fanboys on here. To be on the same side as Trump.
