How many Russians do you think died? And why would you believe the numbers?

He will never answer this.

All we get is autistic screeching "It's a land war!" "Ukraine is fucked!" "Nuland!" "Global homo Nazis!"

socal2 says

I've answered. But socal2 deliberately lies by saying that I don't. Because he can't deal with the answer.

And now by extension, @WookieMan does too. He hitched his wagon to socal2's.

See? 'Land war' is a perfect example. By pointing that obvious out, he looks like a idiot. And he can't counter it, either. And you would think he'd stop bringing up The Great Battles of the Black Sea bullshit he constantly posts as a result. But now...Ukey Nazi Fluffers have to gotta fluff, after all!

^^^^ @WookieMan you signed up for this shit, remember?

Man - if it was just a "LAND WAR" would have thought the drunk Russians would have conquered more land by now, instead of having less land under their control from 3 years ago.

Remember all the retards 3 years ago CONFIDENTLY claiming that Europe and Ukraine is going to starve to death because the Russian navy was blockading Ukraine's grain exports? It was the same retards who were confidently claiming that Europe would freeze to death too.

A significant portion of Ukraine's economy is tied up with agriculture providing nearly half of Ukraine's export income. Majority of the grain is shipped through the Black Sea.

But yeah - Putin fluffers can keep pretending that the Russian Navy failing 3 years on to control Ukraine's shipping and major economic source of income doesn't matter at all......

SO FUCKING WHAT?

Grain exports are not going to save Ukraine. WTF?

Grain exports are not going to supply arms to Ukey soldiers that don't exist.

Grain exports aren't going to do shit.

Are just being a troll or did you get ran over your head from your Tesla driving in self-driving mode?

Or..are you naturally stupid? [strike out as it violates Patrick.net rules]

WookieMan says

How many Russians do you think died? And why would you believe the numbers?

Less than 100,000, mostly mercenaries and people trading prison time for fighting. And why would I believe the numbers? Well, I don't know what they are, but I will in time. I know my government shamelessly lies and our media is bullshit propaganda, I know that for certain, so I guarantee any number they produce is a GROSS EXAGGERATION.

WookieMan says

I don't care about Ukraine. This should have been easy for Russia.

Russia isn't struggling. They aren't attempting to win. This is a proxy war between the US and Russia.

You can't fucking understand that. This war will go on for at least 2 more years is my bet. At least.

The point of a proxy war is to exhaust the other side, not to win. Vietnam was a proxy war, Afghanistan was a proxy war. Syria may be a proxy war at this point.

The last proxy war the US lost definitely was Vietnam, and the result of that was the US went bankrupt, we left the gold standard because of Federal Reserve lied about its assets and couldn't repay it's debt in gold, because they're fucking liars. So we restructured the debt. Today, we have nothing backing the dollar at all. So we may be in the territory of a fiat hyper-inflationary collapse.

WookieMan says

They've lost major naval vessels in the Black Sea in a war that had nothing to do with water. Russia has been stopped, no advanced and were embarrassed at the beginning of this whole ordeal. This isn't even a discussion.

Who cares? Navies are obsolete now except for submarines. They are useful as aircraft carriers to bomb the fuck out of 3rd world nations on the other side of the planet, but only the US does that. It's 1,500 miles from Moscow to Damascus. The only useful thing left in the navy of ANY country in a REAL WAR (that means we actually are fighting somebody our own size, not the little kid in a wheel chair that has cerebral palsy), are submarines, because they are stealthy. In a real war, every fucking air craft carrier and warship will be on the bottom of the ocean in 2 weeks, maybe 1. That's how fucking easy they are to sink. How are you going to stop an missile flying at you at 600 MPH? Shoot it out of the air? Torpedos are in play, drones, you name it. This isn't 1945 anymore. That was before supersonic aircraft. Sinking a ship is easy today.

WookieMan says

Do I side with a anyone? Nope. I'm pointing out actually facts. Russia has likely lost as many troops and mercenaries as Ukraine. Otherwise they'd have gained ground. They haven't. This is WWI type trench warfare. Russians are dying as much as Ukrainians. So let me know who's winning? Russia looks weak.

What is the United States getting out of this?

If you can't answer this question, you're just another stupid shit cheering on another stupid war no matter how much money it fucking costs or how many people it fucking kills because a bunch of fucking traitors in our fucking state department started another fucking war that's fucking us.

In about 4 months, our national debt goes up by 1 trillion dollars. We can't afford to waste money on frivolous bullshit like a war that doesn't matter in any conceivable way for the United States. Just because that limp wristed faggot Lindsey Graham and that blood soaked cunt Nikki Haley is told to say it's important, doesn't make it important.

The outcome of this war doesn't matter, and it was known anyhow at the start. All it's done is ruin relations with the United States. NOBODY in Eastern Europe is going to work with the US government after they FUCKING DESTROYED Ukraine. If Europe ever gets the traitors OUT of power, they will turn their back on the US, and they would be smart to do so. All this has done is hurt EVERYBODY involved. Yeah, Russia will have a Pyrrhic victory, the US will have a COMPLETE loss.

UkraineIsTotallyFucked says

Right - as if Ukraine maintaining one of its biggest export corridors and source of income during a war of survival is no big deal to Russian fluffers? Forgot - "ITS A LAND WAR!"

Why did Russia lose it's Black Fleet Navy and embarrass itself to the whole world trying to blockade Ukraine's grain exports if it doesn't matter?

Wasn't the whole point of Russia invading Crimea to give it better access to the Black Sea?

Laughable watching how far you guys are willing to move the goal posts to rosy up Russia's massive military embarrassment.

Funny - as you appear to be the most emotionally Patneter invested in Russia "winning".

You have 3 years on this site CONFIDENTLY predicting the imminent collapse of Ukraine only to be proven spectacularly wrong year after year as evident of Russia having less Ukrainian land under their control today than 3 years ago despite throwing hundreds of thousands of Russian conscripts into the meat grinder for no gain.

Not only were you guys spectacularly wrong about Russia succeeding, you guys were wrong about Ukraine and Europe running out energy, running out of food or Putin widening the war with nukes.

Whereas, guys like me have simply said we don't think Russia can "win" after failing their main war goals in the first month of the invasion failing to topple Kiev.

Regardless of what you think, there are still plenty of Ukrainians willing to defend their country from Russian invaders. How long do you think Putin can keep feeding the Russian meat grinder for a losing cause before his rule is at risk?

socal2 says

richwicks says

Money and blood well spent, I guess.

You are talking about Russia - right?

All the Russia fluffers have been CONFIDENTALY predicting a total Russian victory since the start of the war.

I haven't. I was HOPING that Russia would do a decapitation and not go into a proxy war, but that was just hope.

See? I wrote this on Dec 29, 11:38pm, 2021 - Russia invaded on February 24, 2022

richwicks says

Who cares. The cabal that runs the United States is just killing all of us with these stupid wars. Russia will fight a war of attrition and just allow the US to continue to bankrupt the entire nation for something 99.99% of the US population has no stake in. The Middle East has been doing this for 2 decades now.

I bet if it came to war in Ukraine, Russia wouldn't even cut off their energy exports to Europe although the US might sabotage these pipelines and then attempt to blame Russia.

The United States is causing this conflict, not Russia. It's just another example of the insanity that runs this nation. The US has bombed 7 nations over the last 20 years - has this in any way benefited this nation?

This was ridiculously easy to predict. This war is to cut off Russian energy exports to put Europe under the thumb of the US which is in part what all these wars in the Middle East were about, because easier to steal their energy than to ship US energy across the ocean. If I know this, Russia does, and since the US did blow up their energy export ability, literally, and energy is a fungible commodity and China really needs energy as does India, they are just restructuring with India and China, and will ignore Europe as the cocksuckers that run this nation ruin Europe.

I never get credit for being right.

Considering how that is all made up bullshit on your part, no risk.

UkraineIsTotallyFucked says

Nominally independent countries with Russian military bases in them to keep them in line, like Hungary in 1956 and Czechoslavakia in 1968.

It would be interesting to see if Germany and Japan are independent enough to close all US military bases in those countries.

I bet the US would not allow them to do that no matter what, proving that they are mere vassal states even now.

Patrick says

The Japanese want our bases. The Germans need them because of the $$$$ they infuse into the local economies around them (Okinawa depends on this moola also).

I'm just asking whether Japan and Germany would be allowed to remove US bases.

I'm guessing they have no choice and are thus not really independent countries.

They can. In the end those bases can only exist there with native support.

No they can't. There was a severe rape incident in Okinawa by US servicemen, and Japan wanted the base out, and Okinawans sure did. It's still there.

It's like Iraq is a dumbocrazy now. They voted for the US to get the fuck out, and the US is still there.

Japan and Germany are vassal states of the United States.

It appears that the Ministry of Propaganda has grown tired of 'reporting' on the Ukraine/Russian war.

What America needs is an exciting new war with lots and lots of killing and action. That'll get the true patriots to fly the flag on their homes, along with the flag of the country that we are providing aid to fight an evil country like Russia.

I don't seem to see any more of those Ukraine flags flying everywhere, but maybe that's just in my area. What about where you live?

RayAmerica says

As the election draws near we'll probably hear less and less, too.

But don't worry! According to socal2, Ukeys have a kick ass army and the Russians are losing!

RayAmerica says

This is pattern.

The US starts a war or eggs one one, they lose the war, and once it's fucked, the propaganda machine stops reporting on it, so when the disaster is unveiled, nobody bothers to look up what happened.

Libya is a mess, Afghanistan is a mess, Syria is still ongoing but it will be a mess, Iraq is a mess, and Yemen and Somalia were always that way, but they will be worse off - now it's Ukraine's turn.

RayAmerica says

I don't seem to see any more of those Ukraine flags flying everywhere,

This is stolen from this site, but this is precisely what happened, what always happens. Foreign nations are stupid to work with the United States.

I see it ~twice a day.

The Economist ran a screamer today - claiming, two years in, that the Russians are going to run out of artillery gun barrels any day now because of tube wear, because some idiot told them they only produce one new barrel per week - so let's run the numbers.

Artillery barrel wear is measured in "Effective Full Charges" - basically the amount of wear on the barrel that you can expect if you fire a standard round at full charge. Firing at a reduced charge would decrease it, while firing at a "super" charge will increase it. Cannon barrels are generally good for around 2000 EFCs before they wear out of spec.

Assuming that all rounds fired in theater are fired at full charge, and that the Russians fire 20,000 rounds per day on average, this breaks down to a requirement for ten new gun barrels daily. According to, uh... the Economist's own article, the Russians have at least two artillery barrel foundries, so meeting this requirement would seem to me to be trivial - although I know it might surprise some of my readers in the West to learn that a Soviet gigafactory can in fact produce multiple pieces of a given steel product daily.

Except the Economist's case actually gets worse because artillery barrels often don't need to be replaced completely, they just need to be bored out and relined - a process that's considerably less resource-intensive than manufacturing a new barrel.

There's this ridiculous analytical cottage industry of taking some production figure for Russian war materiel gleaned at the bottom of the 1990s, assuming it's unchanged under wartime conditions in 2024, and using it to say This Is How Ukraine Can Still Win.

For lack of a better term, it's cope.

Russia have detained the terrorists.

They are singing like canaries. They claim they were recruited on Telegram to commit the attack in exchange for money.

Putin himself claims that Ukraine tried to assist the terrorists into Ukraine after the attack.

It’s clear some organized entity used patsies as proxy to carry out the attack. Textbook CIA behavior. Combined with Ukraine trying to assist the terrorist in their escape… the evidence would strongly suggest this attack was organized by Western Intelligence.

Whether that be Ukraine, CIA, MI6, Mossad, or some other Western entity, they all serve the same globalist masters, and share the same goal of defeating Russia by any means necessary.

Regardless of what the truth is, Putin is going to have a response. He claims Ukraine, and all those who assisted, will pay a heavy price.

Another captured Globalist rag. I used to like reading it for the World coverage ignored by domestic magazines and papers, even though it has a decidedly smug Don perspective as opposed to Fleet Street aghast. Guess they have to keep writing shit from AI that only fools will read like all the other lie stacking screeds.

Patrick says

Could be a false flag. Not saying it is, but there's no strategic advantage in doing this. Ukraine has already lost, and this won't help them, it only gives Russia the ability to be more ruthless and to draw sympathy.

It's hard to say though, Neocons are so fucking stupid, it's possible the West did this. When I think about it, only the Neocons would be this fucking stupid, any other nation involved, I would call it a false flag.

Yes, at this point, I think it was the CIA paying Muslims.

I do also think there is a lot of Jewish hatred for Russia, and this goes back a long way. For example, Jacob Schiff financed Japan in the Russo-Japanese war.

It might be long term hatred, but the immediate case is that Israel has been fighting Syria and wants to regime change that area, Russia is standing in the way and bombed ISIS directly, the US just pretended to do that, and Russia is allied with Iran.

Israel is filled with Jewish Russians as well, and not all of them work solely on behalf of Israel, lots of Russian spies there.

Whatever else you think about the Russians, they are not dumb bunnies. You can be sure they are carefully putting together the puzzle pieces, having already been careful to take the suspects alive. They were, incidentally, all in one car driving toward the Ukraine border when apprehended by Russian police. That is being considered “a clue” as to who their handlers are. But then, who is Ukraine’s handler? (Cue: thinking music.)

At least one of them — Fariduni — confessed that his gang received all their instructions over a Telegram social media channel. The gang, by the way, were all natives of Tajikistan, a former Soviet republic. Its population is 98 percent Muslim, around 97 percent of them Sunni and 3 percent Shia. Neighboring Iran is militantly Shia, for what it’s worth. The four Crocus perps were living as immigrant workers in Russia. How hard would it be to track who was the proprietor of the alleged Telegram messaging site that offered payment and sent orders to the perps? I’m guessing that would not be so difficult.
