#NAFOfellas
today, in response to Russia's latest missile attacks. I resolved myself after the Olenivka bombing.
Russian war crimes only make us stronger.
Welcome, friends. Fellas.
@Lavrovskyi
Musk's neighbour was once the victim of a home invasion by armed men.
Luckily, Elon is a fast thinker and was able to cut the house's phone line before they could call the cops. Otherwise there might have been a shootout.
Plus, he was able to buy the house cheap in estate sale.
@Tatarigami_UA
He is. And about 20 other nationalities.
Are there any of Russia's Syrian mercs left? Haven't heard about those boys since last winter...
But yes, Russians are famous for their gymnastics.
@yasminalombaert
"many commanders will be removed and sent to the front to participate in assault groups”
That sure helps to conserve our missile supply if we don't even need to hit their headquarters...
@IvoHDaalder
Never mind the equally (or more) impactful strengthening of the US reputation, confidence in friends and strengthening of alliances.
Imagine the damage if the US just stood by doing nothing. It would have been the instant end of its moral authority and leading position.

@michaeltomasky
He seems to have a good grasp of the pressures and challenges, but not at all of Russian imperialist & cultural mindset.
This is the seemingly realistic logic that predicted Russia not invading.
I'm not just putting this on Jake.
The US political class broadly doesn't get it.
@Thecolours
@noclador
Yes, if Russia fails to withdraw other troops to reinforce.
No, if they do.
Win-win for Ukraine.
This is how you exploit an advantage in reserves.

@VoCommunism
The Soviet Union occupied Europe after Fascism. It kept forgetting to do the liberation bit, and had to re-invade several colonies when they wanted to be free.
And now, Russia is itself the fascist.
@SteveTownsend0
HUGELY (amd sadly) underappreciated moment. The russian obsession with Crimea is all about the naval port, and now they can't use it even if they occupy it.

@shire_tim
That really set the stage. I remember having goosebumps watching it. We'd heard so much about fighting the infiltration teams in the streets at that point....
@cossackgundi
They don't understand that for Ukraine, surrendering to russia is more dangerous than fighting. It's just not an option.
Not that this "place them at the mercy of an indicted war criminal and hope he decides to give them a good deal" thinking makes ANY sense in ANY situation.

A million Russian men fled the country. 300k have been permanently taken out of the workforce in Ukraine. Plus all those hundreds of thousands currently pulled into the war effort.
In 1944 Germany was pretty short on labour as well. "0% employment" is not the win you imagine....
@OrwellsShaddow
But......what if one were to be blindly anti-west, without any positive ideological position of ones own?
Or, what if one really really really liked rubles?
See? Multiple reasons to shill for Russsian dictator!
@clarenafo
Scholz is genuinely working in good faith as best he can, just that as Wallace says, Scholz's mental constitution is simply not up to being a wartime leader.
He is a technocrat who is dismayed and shaken to find himself in history. He has not come to terms with the reality.
VIDEO: Chinese man who voluntarily signed up to join the Russian army and travel to Ukraine to kill Ukrainians now wants to leave and thinks he’s going to die
@secretsqrl123
It was a very emotional time, really for months.
The videos of the lineups at recruiting offices literally brought tears to my eyes. I still remember some of those pictures very clearly.
@secretsqrl123
I remember that guy! He'd fought in Afghanistan and ambushed a russian column with a grenade launcher. Messed them up pretty well. So many absolute legends.
@MaximeBernier
Tried that in 2014. Now we have an even larger Russian invasion.
Ukraine will never surrender their country. The only solution is to arm them to reclaim it and end this invasion as quickly as possible.
@AndrewPerpetua
I hear it is the bombings and kamikaze attacks (for EIGHT months!) on the peace-loving people of Belgorod that have finally pushed them to pull all the tanks and heavy equipment out of their local mines and military surplus stores, and declare a People's republic.
@TetyanaUkrainka
@netflix
On the other hand, I DO like the idea of Ukrainians getting all the acting jobs.
There will increasingly be roles for russian villian characters over the coming years.
Her call though, and you have to respect the principled stand.
@MedvedevRussiaE
Oh that's great!
So we can deport everyone out of St Petersburg, fill it with Fins and now it's part of Finland? That's pretty handy to know.
@BadBalticTakes
I have been very confidently assured that Russians are unable to congregate in groups for protests. So I am sure my eyes are deceiving me.
Strong work today,

Today we saw a swarm of part-time tankies crawl out of the woodwork. But you have been training for months now.
Seeing the clear superiority of your memes and insights has been impressive and heartening to witness.
I'm proud of us.
@ArmedMaidan
Unlike any comparable war, Ukraine has real time eyes on a very large percent of their kills.
Drone-directed artillery and FPV / drop drones.
We can't say with what accuracy Ukraine is reporting numbers publicly, but they undoubtedly do have very precise numbers themselves.
@yasminalombaert
See how emboldened the Russians have become from even just a delay in 1 country's support to Ukraine.
Imagine our future if we let Russia actually win.
@crabinese2
@MaximeBernier
That IS the only way to stop this. All Ukrainian territory restored.
Ukraine tried appeasing Russia after their LAST invasion, and it just gave Putin greater ambition to go bigger.

@Tacoma2220
I think he is beyond that capacity.
Dude is virtually guaranteed to be acting on the direction of Russia or China. I mean that 100% literally and sincerely.
Igor Girkin (Strelkov) talking openly how about how the Crimean regional authorities didn’t want to separate from Ukraine so Girkin and other Russian soldiers forced them to vote for it under gunpoint.

Could certainly be just the meme.
But if you were a Ukrainian fighter pilot, with your country depending on your performance in the simulator trial...what would you do?
If you support my efforts, please subscribe to the Russian Media Monitor on YouTube, watch and share my videos. Thanks so much, I appreciate each and every one of you.

Yep. UA can count on one MAJOR offensive this year, so as long as Russia is continuing to try and attack, wearing itself down, may as well keep training and collecting more equipment.
