Now it's 'Russia is a terrorist!', even though the 'terrorism' they've done over the last three days is exactly how the US has been fighting wars every day since Afghanistan.
It is all about ideology with him, USA #1 or it's TANTRUM TIME -

A lot of people, probably most, not just in the Ukraine but around the world don't care who runs their government so long as they can live comfortably and Russia can currently provide a significantly higher standard of living than the Ukraine. I expect that many simply fled to the border that was closest to them; even if someone living in the East wanted to flee to Poland they'd have to take their family across the contact line so it's much safer to wait it out in Russia.
The Russians also actually have schemes to evacuate civilians from the lines of fire and relocate them away from the fighting. You can criticise the scope of those schemes, sure, but so far the Ukraine seems to outright prefer to leave civilians in place to be shredded. -

Lol this is a lie or at least a very poor and fictitious "analysis" unless you count "just as many" as meaning "just as many and millions more" -

2022-10-12 at 5:22 AM UTCDo u think the Indo Pacific Economic Pact is a much better idea than dumbass sanctions and tit for tat trade wars to counter China? It's not even much of a better deal for the 40 countries involved or whatever but it will fuck up china's logistics and belt and road initiative. It seems much smarter to me.
I just wanted to type that, mods please move this post to its proper forum and topic -

keep in mind those articles were posted on the 10/10; they don't account for the damage done the next morning.
Official Ukrainian statement is that 30% of their power infrastructure is destroyed and cannot be repaired -
2022-10-12 at 10:23 AM UTClol aldra, the pollack forums shitposter is at it again on their forums:
"Good to be back in the US and catching up on all the BS here. Belarus having Russians coming is no secret. Putin is pushing him to enter the war because Russia is losing and he thinks Belarus can help. When it is more likely that Belarus soldiers surrender in big numbers just to get out of Belarus.
The Azov timae machine was in the gate next to mine in DTW, they were offloading a bunch of Russian prostitutes. Number 1 export of Russia for the next 50 years." -

2022-10-12 at 10:28 AM UTCmore form pollack forums:
"TLDR: Russians used most of their arsenal in initial months of the war. They still have around ~2500 relatively modern missiles (+ unknown number of old Tochkas), whilist since the start of the conflict they used ~3700 missiles. However, they need those 2500 as a strategic reserve (in case of another trouble, you know, nukes need means of transportation too); for current terror campaign, they've used some of this hidden stash. Those missiles they've already fired were worth 1/4 of their annual military budget. Also, it's highly unlikely Russian industry is capable of producing enough missiles to cover those numbers, especially since f.e. Kalibrs use up to 70% of western electronics in their systems." -

interesting, but not sure where they're getting those numbers from. current stock and production levels aren't released publicly as far as I know -

just about everything but processors. if they were initially designed with western processors, replacing them is a nightmare because of all the layers of 'IP protection'
generally speaking you'd need to rewrite everything for a different architecture
