No one knew Putin would be so desperate to make nuke threats.


People just keep nukes for the sake. No one actually wants to use it unless pushed

If us can use nuke I don’t see why Russia wouldn’t, Russia stated if their existence feel threatened they’ll not hesitate to use it. In other words, if Russia is to fall they aren’t going down alone, the whole world is coming with them simple as abcd

i like the way you sumarised it... As Russians invasion comes to a stall due to resistance.. wooooow.. you call it a full scale war.. you get english gon o..Maybe you dont understand that aeriel combat is easier than foot soldiers attack.. full invasion is what happened to Iraq, libya. full invasion didnt happen in syria.. and you are saying ukrain launch attack to moscow.. what!!!.. missile defense system can fail yes like long range sam and iron dome s300 unlike hq-9 ans s400 not forgeting s-500 the game changer.. woooo.. hnnmmm.. Well Russia is not taking over Ukrain though western attitude can make it. its only demilitarizing and denazifyin Ukraine that which is almost done.. the army are in the outskirt of kiev.. much airstrike will be needed here after image sensing and civilian casualties estimates
Leave all these people, they think it's a full invasion. Why exchange gun battle with the enemy in close quarters when it is easier to level the entire area of which Russia have the means

Russian have also passed a bill to sell all assets of foreign companies in Russia that fails to resume at a set period. All assets seized from Russians in US will be recouped from selling their own assets in Russian territory. Collateral damage at the end.
Russia will be at the receiving end while the US has a way of compensating its citizenry through her viable economy while russia will not be able to do so with her economy standing on one leg.

This fantasy will open a dam of blood. Zelensky painted a target on Ukrainians when he armed them and told them to fight the Russians. Strike Moscow? Funny. It's like telling Cuba to hit Washington. Mumu leaders fantasizing their way through geopolitics.

Well so far, things are not going well for the Russians. Putin is frustrated, confused and desperate...and this may get even worse with time. So, as a leader Zelensky is doing his best to fight against a confused maniac. You need not to lay on the floor for a bully, you simply need to stand and fight.

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

Ukrainian missiles simply can't penetrate.

Tell that to the marines.
Re: Why Is Ukraine Not Going Offensive by attacking Moscow by KillaBeans(m): 11:38am On Mar 23, 2022
This is exactly the same question I've been asking. Thanks man. Enough of been defensive. Ukraine should attack Russia too so that they too.
infofta:
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.

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

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.


Putin can not do more than Hitler, if Hitler can be dismantled, then Putin should not test the power of the west and the world at large.

Russia can't survive US assault talk more of UK, France, Germany and the rest...

They overrate Russia.


Russia doesn't have good air defense system. Israel, US, UK have the best air defense systems in the world.



The reason Ukraine isn't sending missiles into Russia is simply because Ukraine doesn't even have the capacity.


Ukraine past leaders were useless and corrupt, they neglected their national defense even when they know they were living with a mad nation ruled by a foolish dictator.



Over the years Ukraine got independence, they ought to have started secret building of long range missiles and air defense systems, but corruption of their past leaders couldn't let them develop any good defense systems. Its really pathetic, my heart bleeds for thr vulnerable, innocent children, elderly, youths and women in Ukraine cry



God will forever punish Putin and all his evil supporters

Is true,
When you have useless leaders that is what you get.
I just fear for Nigeria, one country will wake up and destroy another country just like what Putin is doing in Ukraine, and Nigeria does not have all this long ballistic missile to fight.
Look at what bokoharam is doing in the north, let this people not get to the south? This can be very dangerous, that is why we should divide Nigeria before this guys achieve their goals like the Talibans.
We don't have this type of Russia weapons, I have been thinking about all these things.
Hmmm

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

That's the whole truth man

WATCHOVER:

The reason for my question at the end is that Ukraine War chest is small compared to Russia, they would have been able to match Russia if they did not surrender some of their equipment to Russia through treaty, used when they were part of the USSR




Which ever way it is, the US should respect the territories of other 'power nations' because this is one of the reasons for this fight.

The US will never let Russia come anywhere close to them as it almost led to WW3 when the then Soviet Union tried mounting ballistic missiles in Cuba.

The US should just STOP the expansion. This has always been Putin's stand.

Ukraine fired some projectiles into Russian territory, but it was intercepted midair almost instantly. What followed next was a heavy bombardment. Visit to see updates -

So Israel has a more powerful anti missile defense yet it had to rely on the USA to supply them with the iron dome that is basically the only saving graeshielding them from Palestinian missile attacks till date.

Please read up on Google before replying.
US did not supply iron dome, US only assisted Isreal financially i think with over $300m.
