What will they use and from which military base/ ship to fire the missile into Russia. I forgot they will use the president dick to fire it.Russia finished Ukraine military capabilities within 48 hours leaving them with only ground soldiers. That is why the president is a joke when I hear him saying all the rubbish.This negotiation he is calling for now was what he would have done to avoid this level of damage to his country.The clown thought the world will go to W3 because of Ukraine.who Ukraine epp. In the next 50yrs Ukraine will not recover from this massive set back and Putin will have died.At the end Ukraine lost because going forward they will be begging the world for aid to survive from hunger and to rebuild thr country

It is like you don't know that Russia is so badly beaten and depleted that they are sending in new batch of troops into Ukraine... Only two days ago Russia lost 12 aircrafts to this new patriotic defense system Ukraine just go from NATO... THE loss includes fighter jets, helicopters and drones


Russia seized assets plus their elites funds would be the first batch of resources deployed to rebuild Ukraine.. Meanwhile Russia has go ten years war on their table


America will. Never allow them go home in five years unless they accept defeat

Small Russia with reserve the size of the budget of NASA...


Russia will rebuild Ukraine and still lose the patronage of the EU and nato member counties for decades to come


The noise about launching one web satellites that they gave condition for Britain to do this and that... Elon musk has taken over and launching all satellites to space

Russia has the most advance anti missile technology

Next is Israel

US comes a distant 3rd

The S300 is still preferable by most countries than the US Thaad and Patriots

Don't even mention S400 or S500


What is the name of Israel Anti Missile Defence System ? I hope you know that Patriot is built by United States and that's what the state of Israel solely relies on for its air defence.

They say the best form of defence is to attack.

With the slow pace of Russian troops on the ground due to Ukrainian resistance Russian has resulted to air strikes using long range cruise missiles and long range artillery and bombers resulting in civilian casualties inside Ukraine.

With the full scale invasion going on is it logical for Ukrainian military to start launching long range missiles and rockets like Hamas into Russian nearby cities like Moscow. We all know missile defence systems are not 100% effective.

Will this increase or decrease the pressure on Putin as Ukraine has nothing more to loss.

kiev dnt hav dat capacity 2 worry kemlin wit dat kian strike.
moscow is using greater num of conscripts in kiev whl vets stay at home in anticipation for nato and use,russia presently usin 3.5% millitary pawa in kiev.

The bolded,
Russia has not been indiscriminately bombing and destroying. Rather they have been very careful and only bomb places that have soldiers inside.
If Russia were indiscriminately bombing by now those parts of Ukraine that were bombed would be a pile of ruble. If you don't know what a pile ruble is after bombardment, google america bombing before and after libya pictures

ivolt:


The problem with this is that Putin will now have more excuse for indiscriminate bombing and destruction.
He can even start using chemical weapons against "terrorists".

Russia is not like Israel standing on one leg. Neither media pressure nor human rights concern can deter it.
It can bomb a city filled with people and the only reaction anyone can give is to condemn and talk tough.

Simply because it can't. Russia has the most advanced anti missile technology after the United States.

Ukrainian missiles simply can't penetrate.

They are actually ahead of the US. Look up tye S500 and S550. I think the US is still at the level of S400.

They can't.. it's suicidal.... cheesy
Why should they?

They have no means to do so and if they did it would be both reckless and militarily ineffectual.remember they are fighting a defensive war here..Ukraine is not at war with Russia ..Russia is at war with Ukraine so the Ukrainians are DEFENDING THEMSELVES
But why couldn’t the Iraqis defend themselves when the US was waging war against it ?No sympathy from any country whatsoever. Even the UN that opposed it then was helpless hence, settling a bad precedence for any powerful country to bully less powerful ones which is what we are experiencing today

about Ukraine not recovering in the next 50 years, I totally disagree with that when it is not like they are Nigeria or most black African countries. Just look at Japan and Germany after world war 2. One thing that is sure is that if Russia takes over Ukraine, they will assist in the rebuilding and if otherwise the west will assist them.

On the early days of the attacks, Putin (Russia) bombed most of Ukraine’s military installations and airports facilities. Thus, incapacitating Ukraine’s Air Force and Army to a great extent.
