On a serious note what will it take Zelenesky to sue for peace. There's no pathway to military victory against Russia.

Maybe a Trump victory with Trump telling him you know what negotiate or be on your own like there will no be any hope of help from America. That will. The US Aid stuck in Congress still giving him hope.

But i like his spirit though.

Very well explained. I should add that this only works for ballistic missiles, like the ones Iran, Hamas, and Hezbollah use, since those fly in a highly predictable manner.

It doesn't work (except in very specific situations) for tactical missiles since those fly in an unpredictable manner and can hide in the terrain, making them harder to detect.

This is why Ukraine's western air defence largely fails against Russia while Israel's has been more successful against Hamas.

Russia uses tactical missiles. Hamas uses ballistic missiles.

Israel was also able to intercept Iran's missiles to some extent because Iran used ballistic missiles.

The tables will turn when Israel finds itself at the receiving end of a tactical missile barrage. The iron dome will become a joke at that point.

to be fair there's no AD that's untouchable since they can be overwhelmed not even patriot or s400 they have their own specific purpose and these days missiles production is getting cheaper but AD is getting more expensive, so until it becomes cheaper to defend AD is practically a joke

⚡Rheinmetall plans to build an ammunition plant in Lithuania

On April 16, 2024, the Lithuanian government and the German concern Rheinmetall signed a memorandum of understanding to establish a plant for the production of 155 mm artillery shells. Lithuanian Minister of Economy Ausrin Armonaite called this the largest investment in the defense sector of Lithuania in history (apparently this is the first construction of a military plant after the collapse of the USSR).

The construction site is considered to be a site near a NATO air base in northern Lithuania . Based on this, the likely location in this case will be the area near the Siauliai International Airport (Siauliai), where the Lithuanian Air Force air base and the headquarters of the NATO Air Policing mission are located.

To the last Ukrainian. You remember.

If I was a leader, I would avoid at all cost dragging my country into conflict with a major power. What Zelensky doesn't want to accept is that the west only want to destroy or atleat weaken the Russian state. They don't care how much it has cost and will cost Ukraine. No sensible human being should support the downfall of Russia. They, together with China etc help keep the balance in this world. Imagine a world without a Russia to run to for help. Imagine the tyranny of Isreal. Those who think they can do anything and get away with it. Imagine the bully of smaller nations with sanctions, imagine neo-colonialism. Imagine all the atrocities they have committed. If one trully believes in democracy, one must advocate for a multipolar world.
