Ukraine Status Update

Belarusian media reported that the military hardware arrived for “Allied Resolve” joint exercises. Regardless, the developments are concerning given their timing, scale, and origin. See the map below for the equipment’s movement: pic.twitter.com/WZgDdZCPRM

In the footage, 11 transporter and a single BM-27 multiple rocket launcher are visible, along with support vehicles. Video showed the equipment headed toward the Ukrainian border. pic.twitter.com/v7aWoUxvBa

Peacetime ISR intended to prevent war, or failing that, be better prepared for a timely and less disastrous conclusion for all.

Sadly, USAF is fixated on the internet-of-war linked to warfighters and is blind to this invaluable peacetime mission in the future. https://t.co/c0kGw8gBTC

If the Rumors of the Russia Army moving Divisions from the ‘Far East’ (Siberia and the China Border) are correct, this isn’t an “Exercise” or “Show of Force”. The Bear is pissed off by being bitch-slapped at the last ‘summit meeting’ by that cugly funt from the ‘state department’, and as many Russian Officials have said, both before and after that meeting, that Russia has an Absolute Red Line about NATO moving into the Ukraine.

Given that it is Mid-Winter, and the Russian Army has the Best Equipment for Winter Wars, I doubt that they will wait beyond mid-February to Roll, with “General Winter” at their back.

The Russian writer who said, “you can Talk to Mr. Lavrov, or you can Deal with Mr. Shoigu” was spot-on, and the fumbducks who Refused to be Polite are going to find out what Every European Army has over the past 500 Years or so, “You don’t Mess with the Bear.”

Gryphon speaks a pretty good piece-above.

These arrogant pride-filled gasbags on the US side are an embarrassment. I’m no Russia-lover, but time is precious for all concerned. How the Russian delegation endured Biden’s raving lunatics is a marvel and super-human feat of endurance.

Nothing done in politics is by accident. This kabuki theater put on by the clowns in DC (“District of CLOWNS”) is bad acting and portends a bad ending.

As Matt Bracken’s map showed: America is being invaded at our southern borders, yet these morons in Clown Town are worried about an invasion 6,000 miles away. The logistics of it all and provocations boggle the sane mind.

How would USA react if Xi and Vlad said: “Oh, by the way–we have new allies on your borders; we’re installing missiles at both the Canadian and Mexican borders–strictly defensive, of course (but they can be changed-out to offensive in minutes.)

  That’s what I just said to my wife re: Mexico. Being an area of concentration in grad school, most Americans don’t understand how difficult it would be logistically to get men and material over there or what happens when we start going up the ladder of escalation with Russia.
  
  One of the best classes I took was on nuclear warfighting. Russia moved tactical nukes in theater when it invaded Georgia in ‘08. They could do that this time, too. I hope they do.
  
  I have no love for Putin or the annexations but there are two things to keep in mind: 1) This is not our fight and 2) we have not fought a strict 3rd generation fight since 1991. We suffered shot down aircraft and killed pilots then. Remember the 10, 000 body bags ordered? I wonder what the order would be if we get involved conventionally.
  
  Special forces are guaranteed and one thing. My wife asked me, “Did you ever think you’d live through a world war?”
  
  Finally, I am just young enough to still be drafted if they run out of 18-25 y/os.

The crowd in Kiev should be getting cold feet but I doubt it. Here in NYC I noticed a few cars with a Red Ukraine map including Crimea. Another shithole country bringing their baggage to our door.
Way too many Think Tank/ Foggy bottom types are jews from that AO still sore about the tsars.

  Foggy Bottom. Very fun place.
  
  It’s a wealthy, marina and commercial corner of South D.C. on the Potomac.
  
  They have Champagne and Brunch on Sundays.
  
  Full of Foreign Intel Assets and Beautiful post grads and future CEO’s of major companies.
  
  The “In” group of Diplomat corps also parties there.

    Also, just a note, people who party there call it “Froggy Bottom” because of the bar hopping..

There was a Coup in the Ukraine by the Soros CIA USSA to move Ukraine from agreed neutrality to the EU-NATO sphere of influence. The Very Same Vermin did the same to US on 11/3/21. A Coup to install an illegitimate government.
Now “We” are expected to go to War, supporting these Vermin NWO Oligarchs??? Some body with authority had better say No!!!
Put Trump back in the WH. Cross the damn Rubicon before it’s too late. Enough!!!
