Don't you wish AFU HIMARS had the coordinates for this video?

Any settlement of the war until the Putorcracy has been schooled on the new world's rules of acceptance will be a huge mistake, IMO ... as was the failure to forsee the need for a 'victory plan' in 1918-19.My thoughts exactly.
We're in the west can brag all we want, but fact is that few of the wars we fought gave the desired results. You can fill in the examples yourself. Of course the same is true for the Russians. I think any escalation of the current war will be a loss for both sides. There will be no clear winner.
The JS Kaga and JS Izumo are named for provinces, as their earlier namesake were.As an aside, I dig and respect the Japanese putting another carrier in the water named Kaga. Much as the original may have hurt us, I like the fact that they're courting their own history.
Allegedly, the Russian MoD paid 20,000 EUR per Shahed 136 last year.How much is the price???
As Shakespeare said in Henry V: 'From this day to the ending of the world, But we in it shall be remembered; We few, we happy few, we band of dipshits. Shall be my brother' (Possibly edited. A bit)You're so much more than that...you're OUR dipshit on the internet.
And I'm just your wingman!
a Yellowstone eruption would be mass extinction event globally - similar to Toba 70,000 years ago. We would be distinctive only by the magnitude of ash deposits.While my initial assumption was "too bad they didn't succeed", there is a possibility the whole thing could have been a false flag.
After all, it would allow all of the following
- Escalation in Ukraine
- Justification to crack down on dissidents at home
- Justification to engage in increased censorship
An eruption like Yellowstone would probably affect everybody in the Northern Hemisphere (and possibly the Southern). In an ironic twist, the Russians had actually proposed firing an ICBM at Yellowstone to set it off a couple years back.

Japan has a tradition of naming their capital warships after provinces much like the USN used to name their warships after states or capitols of a state.

The JS Izumo certainly has large shoes to fill, as the IJN Izumo was an armored cruiser that served the IJN from the 1890's through the 1940's.Oh, I get it; I understand their naming conventions. It's just that they know the power of a name. I don't think they just pulled it out of a hat; they chose it precisely to invoke the memory of Kido Butai, I bet.

As far as thr JS Kaga goes, I can see it being named to honor the IJN Kaga carrier. Both the Kaga and Akagi were two of Japan's greatest carriers.
Yeah it would be absolutely devastating: It would have disastrous effects on weather patterns, plant and animal life and even if we invaded Russia, it'd be irrelevant.a Yellowstone eruption would be mass extinction event globally
BTW: The idea the Russians had claimed about nuking Yellowstone was that it would set in motion a positive feedback loop that would activate all volcanoes along the Pacific Rim. The thing is that Russia has a side on the Pacific Ocean which would mean they'd be pulverized too even if we didn't fire back (and we could definitely get our weapons off before theirs hit). They might as well just blow their own brains out.
Actually the Big Lie concept was coined by Adolf Hitler: The idea was to tell a lie so bold and audacious that nobody could possibly believe somebody would have the impudence to distort the truth so boldly. He was claiming that mendacity and a proclivity for the big lie was a common behavior intrinsic to Jewish people.I'm going to say it was Goebbels.
Generally censorship and propaganda go together...Goebbels or not...
"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State."
