Well no you quite clearly did say it champ. Just because you want to slink away from your nonsense take with your tail between your legs doesn't mean it didn't happen. 

 

This word.

 

Either you’re a jambo or a c**t. You decide.

You, sir, are an absolute buffoon, a brain damaged idiot. Putin’s “operation” IS the “war in Ukraine”…destroying his “most effective forces” IS his plan to absorb Wagner into the Russian Army. Now, just how that addle-pated hamster running in what passes for your brain conflated that into me “(making) a ridiculous claim about bumping off a mercenary rebel general 'not being rational' for an autocrat” is well beyond any analysis other than assuming you’ve lost it.

Its bad enough that you ride in here and try to play the big brained boffin, sneering at the peasants and tossing out your “knowledge” like rubies, but then to even attempt to do that you have to either misrepresent, misquote or simply take out of context other posters comments. Four days didn’t do you nearly enough good, when for any rational being it might have caused no small amount of reflection. Emoji away, chum.

Pretty much nailed it

^^^ verge of tears

There's little actual evidence to demonstrate that the Wagner group were the most effective units in the Russian forces. One of the likely motives for their faction's obliteration is their actual destruction of Russian military personnel. The obsession with Wagner is as much a Western fantasy as the 'Putin has cancer' theory and the Great Ukrainian Spring Offensive (both conveniently sidelined for now). The reality is simply more mundane than Twitter hot-takes can accommodate.

Either way, there was absolutely zero prospect of the Wagner group ever participating as an independent combat unit in Ukraine again. What with their failed attempt to overthrow the Russian government and all. It is entirely rational for that loose end to be tied up from the Kremlin's perspective - which is why literally everyone except the biggest village idiot in Texas expected it to happen. 🤡

If you don't want to be treated like a peasant then you shouldn't pollute the forum with your ill-informed slack-jawed yokel nonsense on a 24/7 basis. Otherwise your posts will be given precisely as much respect as they deserve.

It's been discovered the Estonian PM, Kaja Kallas, personally invested in a trucking company that facilitates trade between Russia and Estonia:

Given how much she's harnessed anti-Russia sentiment to boost her own political standing, this revelation has been galling for many.

Her and Sanna Marin could put anthrax in the water supply and I'd still vote for them.

Good news for people worried about neo-Nazism in Ukraine. The commander of the Rusich Group, a Russian neo-Nazi battalion, has been captured in Finland. Yan Petrovsky has been fighting against Ukraine since 2014, the same year he was filmed torturing Ukrainian POWs and confessed to murdering them. He took part in the occupation of the Izyum region in the current war and was photographed with Russian members of Parliament in Kharkiv region before the territory was liberated by Ukrainian troops.

Unsure what he was doing in Finland but hopefully he will now pay for his crimes. Rusich has become closely aligned to Wagner so this could be part of the fallout from the rebellion and Progozhin’s death.

Russian Telegram channel ‘FighterBomber’ has reported that Ukraine has used drones made of cardboard to hit a military airbase inside Russia. Literal paper aeroplanes. The channel is run by a former Russian Air Force pilot and still has links to the VKS.

Ukrainians] were the first to use Australian SYPAQ UAVs to attack an airfield.
Such a drone can carry 4-5 kg of cargo in the kamikaze version. The engine may be electric. The main feature of this drone is its modularity and disposability, because it is made almost entirely of wax-impregnated paper and rubber bands, which together makes it almost invisible to the radar.
Tonight, crests used them in a bunch, interspersing drones with warheads with empty drones.
I don’t know exactly what engines were on the drones, but if there were electric trains, then they were not launched from Ukraine.
Protection is standard. Jammers for GPS signal, Starlink frequencies and known drone control frequencies. Machine guns with tracers and night vision sights and teplokami. Searchlights. And of course gabions, sandbags and nets where possible.

Fascinating Aussie project. 120km range, 1-3 hours endurance and 5kg payload. Launched from a small metal frame, using a pull line to reach launch speed. Would be nearly invisible to radar.

Had a hole in one of the wings that meant it flew in a circle.
