MORE Proof that Russia is Re-Sovietizing. THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE.
This video talks about the war in Ukraine. The woman in the cage got 7 years in Prison for 5 small pieces of paper that told the truth about the war in Ukraine. Under Russian law, she is a criminal.

Maybe, or maybe the Chinese were bullshitting a bunch of western reporters when Emperor Xi came for a visit. I'm sure our 5 eyes have a much clearer picture of the state of the Chinese military. Much of their equipment and doctrine is the same as the Russians, and they are not doing so well in Ukraine. They did a lot worse when western weapons started coming into play. Also, maybe they really didn't understand how the eastern Europeans felt about Russian aggression, they were NATO and EU members and drew even bigger players like Germany which is now all in. This war will fuck Russia for a generation and probably lead to its eventual dissolution.

Think the Russians are treating the civilians in the occupied areas any better than their own troops? Feeding them any better?

Looks like another "attrition trap" for the Russians where the Ukrainians will use this to blead them white with artillery, again...
A high casualty ratio and lots of destroyed Russian equipment is what they want, let them attack if they want to, or force them to and let artillery, FPV and other drones do the work from a distance. The drones are making up for a lot of shells and they can get them faster than the shells, so give them the funds or buy them the parts they specify. $4 or 500 bucks to destroy a tank or other equipment is not much money compared to military grade stuff, and dropping grenades on troops from DJI drones is cheap too.

Elon is in way over his head, people are dying like flies in Ukraine and Israel and because Elon is so rich and making so many enemies, some of them might perceive him as a threat to their nation or cause... Friends come and go, enemies accumulate. Uncle Sam has been known to basically take over outfits like spaceX in the interests of national security, arranging their "sale" to reliable partners. If he makes an enemy of Israel, then the republicans in congress will turn on him. It's the same for Russia, if Israel perceives them as a threat or enemy, they will use their influence in America to support Ukraine.

At an enormous cost to the Russians, the chemical plant is a tough nut even for the glide bombs. However, with airpower fixed defensive positions don't work too well. It is a place the Russians will pay dearly for and that is the idea, war is Hell.

Basically, they have enough infantry and drone operators to cover the place, but artillery does most of the work when the Russians advance. The Ukrainians have stripped away their artillery support in many cases and they are attacking and dying. They will trade ground for advantage as they always have, even counter attacking, but only when it makes sense, unlike the Russians. With those glide bombs in play, they don't want to mass troops in defensive positions, they don't need to with artillery support and on the defensive with automatic weapons and drones for longer range work.

How do you know what the Russians are thinking? The cost will be dear but the win will be worth 10-20k lost come election time (in March). It is not like Russia is telling it citizens how many are being killed and wounded.

I dunno what the Russians are thinking, only what they did in the past and are doing now, dying in large numbers, it's another Bakhmut for the Russians. The Russian elections are a farce anyway and if that is the political motivation for the Russian stupidity, that is fine with the Ukrainians. It's not so much about territory yet, as it is about destroying Russian military power while preserving as much of your own as possible. Once they reach a point they can begin offensive operations again, when they accumulate supplies. Right now, it is a pretty dynamic situation with dozens of combat engagements over the entire front, including south of Kherson now, and that would be a major threat to the Russians in all of southern Ukraine.

Vlad is getting it from all sides now that Ukraine has weakened Russia so much and destroyed their military reputation as well as much of their equipment. His former vassal states in the half a dozen stans are looking to China for military support and economic links, they have oil and gas, and China has lots of shit to sell including, pipelines, highways, railways bridges and buildings. Russia has nothing but grief, poverty and the threat of invasion. I don't think America and Europe would mind too much if China started taking Vlad's turf in central Asia, or even helping pacific coast republics attain independence from Moscow. It would be better for them than trying to muscle into the south China sea or invade Tawain which would lead to economic disaster and war with the west, all of the west and their Asian neighbors too.

We can play that game now too since Ukraine blew the doors wide open on Vlad's evil empire, only their wars will be much closer to home and hurt far more. The CIA and western intelligence agencies could make life very uncomfortable for Vlad and most of his local enemy nationalities are operating in Ukraine, I'm sure they are taking full advantage of the opportunities and contacts.
I figure no matter what happens in the US elections Joe will finish off the Russians in Ukraine before the 2024 election and if they don't, the Europeans will be prepared to finish the job. One way or another Russia will lose in Ukraine and be driven out, but not before most of their military and its vast horde of equipment and munitions are used up and gone for good.
