Shakin in my shoes!He could tell you, but then he would have to kill you.
...where the staff are all on B scale?And stayed at a Holiday Inn Express?
...like, who he'll be sleeping with?Aha, I knew there was something fishy about that guy.
Hell! Add stars to the Seperatist flag and you get a Confederate flag. What's next? A Nazi flag?I know this is Wikipedia but it puts the strength of separatist forces in Donbas at about 44,000 as of last year.
It's also interesting that right-wing nationalism (the Russian variant, not the Nazi variant) seems to play a key role within the separatist units. That's not a surprise but it provides yet more evidence of the nonsense that is Moscow's justification for this "special operation-soon-to-be-war."
Are you telling me that Chemtrails aren't real?Sort of sounds like one of those "authorities" on Geo-engineering/Chemtrails, who got their inside information from a (former)Government official who has to remain anonymous in order to protect self/family...
They're real alright, hydrocarbons are chemicals.Are you telling me that Chemtrails aren't real?
Nice work Ukraine.An add on to my earlier post. Scratch one flag officer.
or a Nigerian scam artist using a variation on the "I am a banker/politician/lawyer (or other crook) that needs you to open a bank account for me and if you do I will pay you millions"Sort of sounds like one of those "authorities" on Geo-engineering/Chemtrails, who got their inside information from a (former)Government official who has to remain anonymous in order to protect self/family...
I used to work late back in the 90's (before the interwebs took off) and listened to his show for entertainment value.or a Nigerian scam artist using a variation on the "I am a banker/politician/lawyer (or other crook) that needs you to open a bank account for me and if you do I will pay you millions"
Also consider, that back then, there were many people who fell for anything, but they didn't have the interwebs to enable their...uh...convictions?
As I mentioned I am separating two issues - The initial attack in February, and the war that has been going on since end of March.I think it is healthy to take a different view. You do and that is a good thing. However Russia is not the soviet union, even if a guy thinks he still can fill Uncle Joe shoes. That much is very clear.
The weapons fielded are not enough, planning is even shorter then that of Adolf. Supplies are long away and costly to get to the front. And that if ! available.
Cant take a big city, yes murder or rape some to terrorize as they did in well, every where to went too. ( they are not the only ones with this strategy i know )
Can take a bit of dirt but shaky on keeping it.
The other side did get get some heavy stuff after all and a lot of very mobile manpads and (i presume, i agree) a very nice dose of info on where and how many enemy agents are where in real time. And are getting better suited weapons although not the latest in ever more faster pase. This war isnt about how many one can produce to overwhelm the other. There is no time to do that. It isnt ww2 Ost front. Its a fight at best for Russia a stalemate, a powerplay that went over the intended goal. Should have been a blitzkrieg covering a piece of real estate, put your guys in control over the rest and Bob is your Uncle. Did it before ( forgetting Afghanistan as everybody should)
Why didt Putin play Risk? Cant hold the whole of the continent not even for 7 tokens.
That does not take away the force Russia can field, it just shows how it can do in an offensive war AND keeping its hinterland.
It cant.
Again it is not the soviet union nor does it has for a few years unlimited forces
So i hope you do better next time in claiming stuff. I do mean i like a different view but in a hot war, you state sources if you state some thing as the truth.
Not some article written almost nobody knows.
Ahh...I see why my bullshit meter broke...Therefore the Moscow Times...
Thank you, so 130 or 94 BTG's = 70,000-100,000 men would include according to your stats 35-45,000 LDNR units.?
NATO has not been ignoring the Russian backed separatist forces. They have mentioned them multiple times in intel press briefings, and each time have placed the overwhelming majority of them in the Donetsk/Donbas/Luhansk areas. They have repeatedly mentioned that they are engaging the UAF forces in those regions. The Russian backed separatist numbers mentioned have ranged from 35,000 to 45,000 troops actively engaged on the eastern front, from the beginning of the invasion. There are also Russian ground forces engaged on the eastern front. These have also been mentioned in the intel press briefings. Since the redeployment there are more Russian ground forces on the eastern front engaging the UAF there.
