https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZxw02x0rvw&source=patrick.net - a landing ship destroyed. The cargo was estimated at about 20 tanks and 40 armored personnel carriers, plus 400 Russian marines.

There's something very special about this one. TV channel of the Russian Ministry of Defense "Zvezda" ("The Star") has announced that the ship entered the port of Berdyansk. The greeting from Ukrainians followed shortly after. "Zvezda" was highly commended by the Ukrainian military. Good job, "Zvezda"!

Also, just a pre-warning about any Phosphorous BS. White Phosphorous is legal and was used by the US in Vietnam, Iraq, etc. for decades.


Mosul 2017 and Falluja, 2004:
https://www.npr.org/sections/parallels/2017/06/13/532809626/u-s-led-coalition-has-used-white-phosphorous-in-fight-for-mosul-general-says?source=patrick.net

US forces yesterday made their clearest admission yet that white phosphorus was used as a weapon against insurgents in Iraq. A Pentagon spokesman told the BBC last night that it had been used as "an incendiary weapon" during the assault last year on Falluja in 2004.

Lieutenant Colonel Barry Venable said the substance, which can be used to lay smokescreens but burns down to the bone in contact with skin, was not covered by international conventions on chemical weapons.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2005/nov/16/iraq.usa

Some smoke and illumination munitions have a Phosphorous ignition system, or contain some Phosphorous, which is also not a chemical weapon. It looks like a little cloud with "fingers" extending down from it.

"Ukraine reported" is a huge red flag. We'll see. They could have left explosives there or a thousand other things. Don't know where the missile big enough (an ATGM wouldn't do that) would have come from since the place is occupied for many miles around, but who knows. We'll see.

One thing I've learned is to let days go between easily disprovable claims, and a few months to a year go by for the biggies. Like Mask Efficacy, Vaccine Dangers, Hotel Bed Pee-Pee Allegations, Laptops full of Crack and LLC Money transfers from China are Russian Disinfo, etc.

LOL, sure Jan. Also I explained way in the beginning of the thread it was sarcastic. I'm actually surprised at the relatively tepid resistance, though I did expect Azov Battalion to resist the best as it was an all volunteer group of true believers, who typically fight hardest. My opinion is that Putin went in too soft, that the resistance was greater than he was told, but it's nowhere near the level asserted by NWO Propaganda outfits.

I think you're a Faux Skeptic, only showing up to defend Status Quo ideas with biased "Skepticism", and your position on Mask Efficacy is totally exploded.

TBH I don't often bother to read your posts for this reason.

Of course it is, pretty much everything you hear is a lie. The only thing that is a fact is that there are plenty of Russian speaking people that want to belong to Russia in the Ukraine, that's why the donbass and crimea conflicts have been smoldering for so long, too long without any serious diplomacy trying to address and fix them. But people like propaganda, gives a better sense of belonging. It's very powerful

Not "there are". "There were". The tense is past. And that's giving the biggest possible benefit of the doubt to your statement. Russkis put a lot of work into changing that during the last month. Mariupol, for example, was a predominately Russian-speaking city. Note that "was" is the proper tense here as well. People in biggest Ukrainian cities, Kyiv and Kharkiv, mostly speak Russian. Those people now hate Russkis with passion.

Had a Skype buddy living in the Ukraine about 15 years ago to discuss a lot of medical research pertaining a specific topic, and he wanted to be part of Russia and supported the crimea/donbass movement in non-violent ways. He constantly had to change and recreate his Skype identity as they tracked him down by web location and he said his freedom if not his life was in constant danger if the Ukrainian govt found him, just for being a political opponent. Eventually he disappeared and never heard from him again

Right now I'm just waiting for the next round of BS Fake News, probably about White Phosphorous and "Chemical Weapons".

I simply don't believe anything that comes out, and the Snake Island Surrender, Ghost of Kiev, and photoshopped "Z" on 2014 era equipment (since both sides use largely the same family of heavy vehicles like BMP, BTR, and T-72) has made that clear.

While you don't take me seriously, here are couple more facts I didn't yet see reported here:

- Chubais, one of the closest Putin comrades and Special Representative of the President of the Russian Federation for Relations with International Organisations, left his office and jumped the ship. He was seen in Turkey. If you don't understand what that means you don't understand anything.

- Elvira Nabiullina, Russian head of the Central Bank, has requested to be relieved of her office. The request was denied. This is the unquestionable part. The part which is likely but for which I can't point to a public source is the following: it happened twice, and after the second time she was told that the only way she's leaving is through the penitentiary system for her and her family.

According to my colleagues in Ukraine this is the type of people they call "wata" ("cotton"?) there. =)) Nobody said these types don't exist - they do, but it was great miscalculation by Putin to assume they are in the majority. Apparently they are not.

It's OK, we had fucking loyalists during American Revolutionary War too.

PS. And how's that "prosperity and peace" going on for the Putin's subjects?

Biden is obviously a puppet. It doesn't even matter if he's a CGI deep fake.

There are those who argue that it doesn't matter, except as a juncture where you red pill and realize the deep fakes that are going on with brand name identity capture. What is important is the 'crew' behind the corporate shills.

Imposters are nothing more than corporate logos who have achieved valuable mass recognition status, even if the underlying image is a fiction or somebody has been murdered and resurrected for convenience. Khazarian mafia have been into identity theft for many centuries. Kill the icons of wealth and politicos and replace them with controlled impersonators. Use the wealth and influence for your own ends. Some think Bill and Melinda Gates were dead around 2013 or so, and their identity logos and fortune hijacked to serve the NWO madness more directly. Melinda Gates is obviously not the same person, and even looks like a tranny. Any resemblance is strictly approximate. We also saw Justin Castro's double, who looks older, rougher and has a gap between his teeth the the real Castro doesn't have.

It matters to recognize the fake, but beyond that, addressing the conglomerate logo is the thing. Putin is reportedly on his sixth incarnation as the Russian corporate logo. Putin has a common slavic appearance, so he is probably not too difficult to substitute with new actors. The 'current' Putin isn't the original baleful KGB assassinista, but is now supposed to be a reflection of the Russian desire to go back to the days of Russian Orthodox christian heritage and national values pre-Illuminati KommieKunt.

Trump doesn't repeat it more than once, but at the debates, he clearly stated that whoever was out there was not the Joe Biden he remembered and spoke with in the past. He also stated recently that the 'current' Putin is not the fella he was friends with during his administration.

Of course, we have all of those IHLlary body doubles obviously running around. They are a lot more healthy, young and attractive than the old demon cellulite pile.

Looks like Russia is dialing back expectations claiming Kiev and other major cities were never the goal. Looks like Russia might be pushed out of Kherson too.

"Russia had never intended to capture Kyiv, Kharkiv and other cities, the generals said - these are not setbacks in other words, it's all part of the plan. And the plan was to distract Ukrainian forces while Russia/ Donetsk/ Luhansk made territorial gains in the east."

LOLwhat? Start a major invasion from 6 directions, lose more troops, tanks and aircraft than in 10 years of Afghan war, displace 10 million people, kill God knows how many civilians and get hit with major sanctions only to get what you already had - a useless sliver of Ukrainian territory with some non-functioning old coal mines and chemical plants? This is the smartest plan in the history of smart plans! Smarter even than that gnome underwear plan. How's the fuck is this any better than what they had on Feb 23, 2022?

What are you trying to prove? That putin doesn't run a sound and free govt and has many enemies? Does a bear shit in the woods? The Ukranian government is a puppet govt put in place by the US that felt the need to spy on, harass, imprison and (threaten to) kill political opponents and outlaw whole parties and censor the press. Sounds familiar? Yeah thought so. The people of both countries are paying for this shit and putin is at least as popular as zelinsky (which doesnt mean much). It's a tragedy on both sides that could have been prevented time and time again with diplomacy and sound leadership.

Nah, I'm not aspie or bored enough to bother. This is the dullest and oldest trick out there, flip the responsibility onto me to debunk you. I saw how you tried to maintain the fiction that Masks worked on a public health level by dismissing real world empirical data and clinging to controlled laboratory experiments. In reality, we had real world experience and data on a public health, real world usage level for decades with other respiratory diseases for decades, and the outcome of COVID mask wearing followed those closely - statistically insignificant in almost every case, and even in the handful when it was barely outside the MoE, it was hardly worth the bother in terms of economic and psychological damage. The point being we knew that going into COVID. And it wasn't an excess of caution given the Smearing of Ivermectin (and HCQ), the former of which is now clearly shown to have a solid impact on COVID if dosed early.

This was a long predicted reaction to Neocon meddling in Ukraine. "Leading Ukraine down the Primrose Path" as Mearsheimer put it years ago in the early years of the last decade, and George Kennan warned about what has basically happened decades ago in the 90s before his death.

Nobody is cheering it, just regretting it because it was predicted.
