Are the Ukrainians winning in the east or the south?

Are the Ukrainians making significant gains anywhere?

Thank you for your insights, Lord Haw-Haw.

I think there is significant evidence today that Russian troops were responsible for Bucha.

fully motivated yes, but are they going to be any better trained that the Russian conscripts? There's only so much you can learn in a short space of time.

They have been getting training since the start of the war so I would imagine these are volunteers trained to be soldiers as opposed to conscripts forced to fight, id put them above Russian conscripts when it comes to effectiveness.

Western media seem to be reporting on a different war which is annoying - see this video [Link] & how dismissive this 'expert' is.
The Terminator BMP has only recently joined the fight & is responsible for big gains in the Popasna area, an area I have said is in real danger of being encircled for weeks now, If I was in charge I would be pulling ukr troops out & forming a new frontline.

North of Kharkhiv the Ukrainian military have overreached and have conceded some territory back to the Russians.

Russia are also pushing quite hard on Mykolaiv.

This is still a war of attrition - something the longer it goes on the better it is for Ukraine however if Russia was to fully mobilise its reserves and conscript an army Ukraine is in a bit of trouble, some Ukrainian generals seem to think this is already happening in Russia.

Heard some school kids on a bus talking about Ukraine and one of them said putin must be worried Sweden and Finland are going to join NATO, and they reckon putin has got leukemia. Then one of said when did he invade leukemia? I do worry about today's youth.

The media were full of officials talking tough over not paying Putin in rubles for his gas.

Predictably that didn't last and essentially that now happens.

We have low quality elites making poor decisions, that we have to pay for and a media that covers and lies for them.

There are signs that China are preparing themselves against western sanctions and it's actually been happening for quite a while.

'China is preparing for war. First, Xi orders Chinese banks to risk asses and insulate against potential U.S sanctions. Now Xi is directing Chinese nationals overseas to divest of any assets. China has been hoarding grains for over a year

In January 2020, China updated their “Foreign Investment Law” which gives Beijing the power and ability to naitonalise foreign assets and investments under “special circumstances” which include war.

In mid 2021, China’s new Counter Foreign Sanctions law enables Beijing to seize corporate assets and detain expat employees if the underlying corporation simply is complying with foreign sanctions.

The groundwork is being laid for complete seizure of foreign assets and investment in China. If you are an institutional fiduciary or any other fiduciary, you better be re-thinking your risk assessment of investing in public or private Chinese companies.

Investors lost everything in Russia and have tried to sweep it under the rug. They won’t be able to hide the hundreds of billions that will be lost in Chinese investments.'

(Kyle Bass, Chief Investment Officer Hayman Capital Management)

The elites fed and grew the tiger...with their greed driven optimisms and idealistic justifications.....but it will be the average joe who will have to eventually deal with it.

Whose narrative do you think the media will run with? It will whatever the elites want you to think to justify their cock ups while they paint the blame on the external 'other'....that it suddenly becomes acceptable to demonise.

Where are you now Chris Patten?.....everything you said was utter bullsh1t.

People in my family (and probably yours), real men, fought against real Nazis, some of them died and some of them were scarred forever by the experience.

Your ignorance of what’s going on right now in Ukraine is disgusting to me but symptomatic of the increasing dumbing down of this country.

Stick to football as that will channel every ounce of masculinity that you might otherwise use in defending your own country.

Now, having fought in the Falklands, that comment is out of order. Are you actually a Palace fan, the reason I ask is you never post on Palace related stuff, matches/transfers/gossip etc, just News/Politics threads, spouting your communist ideology.

What has “having fought in the falklands” got to do with Ukraine?

I’m not a communist, far from it, where did you get that idea?

What has any of this got to do with football?

Ukrine is all about Human trafficking being cleaned up by Russia.

Ukraine PM is just a puppet. Doing more TV interviews and recieving more american politicians during wartime. Its a charade.

Whilst Elon puts up starlink there and now Argentina to get the unbanked, globally, ready for a crypto future.

Not only will you all be embarassed in the future to find out i was right about everything, but you'll also miss out on XRP riches.


Up next - Nuclear scare consisting of either a russian sub or Korea related that will kill the Stock exchange and change everything.

All a show.

You started off by saying your family had fought against the nazis, REAL men.

You are, as you support for Russia explains.

Exactly what I was asking, are you even a Palace fan.

Ok, I answered your post & I stand by my comments, your post was/is out of order.

It's s football forum. All of our families fought Jerry too - Eagleman was letting you know there are plenty of forces/ex forces on here. There may be more insight than you realise.
