Foreign AffairsRe: Fact Check: Remember "Exclusive" Story In The Daily Star About "General Pavel" by Appleyard(m): 9:05am On Jul 11, 2022
id911:
The rate at which propaganda and lies were flying on a daily basis about Russia even when those things were clearly false was alarming. I'm now doubting the authenticity of western books and history I've read. This Russia-Ukraine conflict has really made me lose interest in watching CNN and other news outlets.
Western accounts of history is clouded with lies and Eurocentricism. Just the same way they lied that Columbus was the first to discover America, whereas, Africans with boats were there before Columbus. The white man and history-based lies are like five and six.

SUFFERInSMILIIN:
This man is totally confused and does not even know the whole story. By the beginning of this war in 2022 Ukraine was not part of Nato and was not part of European Union. You have to look at the history of the war it is nothing new this war has been going on since 2014. What is skeleated it is when Ukraine started recapturing territory back from the separatists back by Russia. If you want to analyse the war you have to go back to around 2015 to really understand what went wrong. You had a puppet Russian president in Ukraine which was removed and that made Russia go mad
Who orchestrated the removal of that president, let's even assume he is Russian puppet?
Foreign AffairsRe: Check Out Kyiv Absurd Data On Ukraine And Russia's Millitary Loss So Far by Appleyard(m): 9:15pm On Jul 09, 2022
shogsman:
Ukraine just claimed to have killed 10 times more Russian solidiers than Russia has Killed.

They claimed they've only lost around 3,000 of Thier men, zelensky last week said over 200 of Their men die daily.
In mauripol alone over 4500 of Their soldiers surrendered to Russia.

Ukraine pow in Russia now is over 10,000 but somehow ukraine says only 3000 soliders has been killed in action and they've killed almost 40,000 Russian solidiers
"A day without comedy is a day wasted" - Zelensky. cool

When the side that have lost more than 120 square kilometers tells you it has inflicted more death three times on the attacking army than ithe ones it has lost tells you all you are suppose to know...that Zelensky sees the Ukraine war as a circus show. cool The Hungarian president and house of Paliament were right afterall when they said this man has mental problems. cool

More than 400 aircrafts? Are you even listening to yourself? grin

Heck. The UkroNazis can't even win a direct air-to-air confrontation with Russian air forces and here you are typing propanganda because you were there taking records. grin

Russian airforce that keeps bombing the Ukro from the Nazis is a no go area for Russia planes? grin You should have said UkroNazis can't even fly within their own air space without getting shot down. shocked

Lmao. cheesy

You guys will really cry more blood, especially now that small Russian groups are taking out Ukrainian SAM batteries with machine guns, not missiles anymore. Who does that in modern battle if not Russia? grin

Trash talk!

Russia have said their main goal is to liberate the Donbas region which they have almost achieved.

It's now left for Ukraine to counterattack or not.

There are already discussions on how to rebuild Ukraine and how much it will cost. Zelenskyy has said it should begin immediately.
At the bolded, thanks to God that you even have the decency and honestly to admit for once that Russia have almost achieved their goal of liberating the East of Ukraine.

A Ukrainian counterattack would be a tremendous surprise if it happens really because the current Ukraine that we know now don't even have much fight left in its ranks let alone such a huge counter offensive to claim back those lost territories.
Foreign AffairsRe: Germany: We Can't Plunder Our Military For The Sake Of Ukraine by Appleyard(m): 6:09pm On Jul 08, 2022
Why should they continue to send weapons to Ukraine when Russia keeps destroying them? undecided

In a recent interview with Fox News, a Ukrainian pilot described the direct aerial confrontation with the Russian fighter jets as a ‘suicide mission,’ adding, “I wouldn’t even find him [Russian aircraft] on the radar screen by the time he’s already launched a missile.” grin grin grin

All the weapons they have been sending to Ukraine are not effective against Russia as confessed by that pilot. But some kids here think Russian aviation is not up to quality with foreign ones let alone surpass them. This pilot just said they can't even track and find Russian planes on their radar, and we are not talking about the SU-57. cool

Fear Russia. cool

You said partly. That aside does Boris resignation have anything to do with inflation? You guys are impossible.
My friend stop being an apologist for a clown.
What led to his resignation? From the Chris Puncher's appointment brouhaha to the Covid-19 lockdown rules violationsl to cost of living that has risen to 9.1 percent in inflationary figures since the Ukraine war began, and the hike in tax rates and what have you, were all factors that contributed to the pressure on him and his subsequent resignation. What is standing tall is that a leader who has spearheaded the vilifcation of another leader and country in support of the misdeed of another in the same continent while forgetting his own flaws and clumsiness has been kicked out of office.

Who is the loser now? grin

The vilified Putin or the arrogant big, fat shapeless boss player? cool

Teaser4:
I just did a quick scan on SKYNEWS and FOxNEWS front pages, there’s no news about the Ukraine/Russia crisis, i bet they already ran out of propagandas.

The other day Skynews was reporting how significant the “snake island” Is, the same island wey Russia evacuated out of good will, some ukroops soldiers went their for a quick photoshoot session for their masters, only to collect missiles, eventually some of em perished. I don laugh taya, it’s true that Russia never start yet cos if Russia unleash hell on Ukraine, there will be nothing left to rebuild.

Gradually, the WEST don dey forget Ukraine small small, most of em don dey get internal problems, Uk, USA, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Bulgaria and so on…. I’m looking forward to winter season, I really can’t wait.
One month to winter, and the news would be filled with horrific tales of protest here and there across the EU.

Look at are maopic your thinking is, equating and comparing War with football, at times i wonder the set of brains on Nairaland.

If I have 1 Billion Naira and you have 100 million naira, who do you think will outspend each other? Or in your Delude thinking, we should organize a spending spree, Then we can know who will outspend each other? Even when It's obvious I can.
Some of you really have to start using your number six.
Honestly, I really do not want to answer you before but seeing this ignorant post from you shows you don't even know what you claim you know.

Who told you military spending dictate or equate capability and supremacy? cheesy

What you don't know is that much of the US military budget are spent on bases maintenance and stationaries with over 800 military bases world wild to look after. Only a portion of that translate into real capability purchase and deployment. You could have done research before typing this myopic reply to the guy who was helping you to see the facts. wink

Consider this; India outspend Russia on defense, but they end up buying more weapons from Russia than they buy from other nations. Does the spending means they are more capable than Russia? No.

Saudi Arabia outspend Germany, France, the Japan, South Korea, Turkey, and more, but do that translate into capabilities? No.

So what are you yapping about?

Look at all the nations that are militarily advanced; they have one thing in common - BRAINS and thriving MIC.

If a Russian military industry used $10 to produce a bullet that can fly 10 kilometers and a US military industry spent $1000 producing same bullet at same speed, would you say the US bullet is more capable because it cost more money? huh

Guy, take time o. cheesy

The Nostradamus of south Africa . Your darling Russia will be finish in the incoming wars. All the prophecy of Janse van Rensburg all 100% accurate .
What do you know about prophecy? cool All sides will suffer in that war, but only America and much of the west that will be annihilated completely. No one tells the future better than Alois Irlmaier, AA Allen and William Marion Braham, and Nostridamus. America is Mystery Babylon which God have ordained for destruction in the coming 3rd World War. I'm sorry your darling would be annihilated; they have to cause of the evils they have done to this world.

Do you know that the nuclear tipped torpedo that will sink England and many other coastal cities of the west as predicted by Irlmaier is already produced by the Russians? Prophecy halfway fulfilled...

Ukrainians have so far fought Russia with inferior weapons? undecided undecided

If Zelensky your fellow clown hear this sef e fit spit on your head undecided

He has been asking for more powerful weapons and they keep sending him now it is long range weapons again.lols. Once they send him the long range artillery and Russia still crushes his forces then NATO will be tired of him and the war. Well, the clown can still request nuclear weapons sef. grin Someone that was begging NATO to enforce a No-fly zone over Ukraine. grin

I just pray they send him his long range artillery that is when the clown and NATO would know that Russia is not a country you can trifle with. Long range artillery won't save Zelensky. He better start preparing his escape route into poland.
Ukraine already operates the HIRMARS long range artillery, what more can the comedian get?

Pro-Putin luuunatics never fail to amaze me.

Russia's victories are pyrrhic.

Nevertheless, we know Ukraine have so far fought the Russians with inferior weapons in this Donbas battle. The West have been reluctant to arm Ukraine with similar weapons the Russians are using.
By the time Ukraine get long-range artillery et al, Russia will be chased out of the conquered territories.

Russia have suffered huge casualties all the same but have enough men and ammunition to replenish. Ukraine don't have such luxury.

The war is far from over. Only some battles have been lost.
I don't even know what to say to this one.

Of course, he is saying that we should take the opinion of a select few analysts above realities on the ground.

Honestly no matter where you pin your narrative. One gotta give it to the russkies.

What amazes me is that, with all NATO weapons and intelligence of pentagon, the guys are making their grounds day by day albeit taking it slow.

Now imagine a full-fledged war?
This was exactly the point some unbiased western military analyst and formal soldiers were saying during the early stage of the conflict.

Despite the real-time Intel NATO AWACS and satellites were providing Ukraine, together with new weapons and even foreign US and NATO too brass leading the Ukrainians whom they have trained and prepared for 8 years, and have laid down heavy fortifications across the contact points in the east, the Russian forces still manage to round them up in cauldrons and effectively segmented them into tiny concentrated groups to have only one option: surrender or die. No one fights like this anymore, not since the dawn of the 21st century, which is amazing. It's even more jaw dropping when you consider that it's just 150,000 troops against 500,000 forces. Hence, the UK military chief was unable to hold back his confession on the fact that the Russians are way better than they were being credited or debased by the west, and that the west need to up their game if they stand a chance of ever getting over the Russians in real combat. Just imagine what would happen if Russia is to mobilize fully for war.

There’s this YouTube channel that to videos; the Marine or so. In one of his reviews of the American military recruitment advert and that of the Russians he said; The Russian military stick to what warfare and combat is all about. Which is destroying things and killing people. Now how do you pit this well Russian dude to the girl with two moms in warfare?. Maybe I didn’t quote him correctly but the message was simple. The Russians are determined to win, even when they face defeat, they will always come back to achieve their aim. Imagine shipping testesterone and other hormonal shots to soldiers in the battlefield instead of munitions. cool cool cool
The truth of the matter is, Russia is way advance in thought processes and and battlefield strategies than anything the west have up their sleeves. No modern army fights the way the Russians are fighting in Ukraine. These are fact.

Now, sit back and let's analyze the bolded in summary of the UK Military Chief's confessions. cool

1. Western military planners were stunned by the Russian war strategy in Ukraine. This strategy was pointed out previously by some unbiased western retired army personnel like Colonel McGregor of the U.S army, but they were dismissed as being Putin asss-lickers until now that the real people that matters are admitting the truth. cheesy

2. Air power, cyber warfare and new capabilities remain crucial in modern warfare,but Land domination remains profound and whomever has the best land based strategy will emerge the victor.

3. The best of Western military shining assets are not enough to wage a successful war against a major Land power like Russia. cool (No wonder they need like a hundred countries in NATO to wage war against Russia). grin

4. If UK forces should come in contact with Russian forces in the battlefield, they would be outnumbered, outgunned, and beating black and blue all the way back to Bolton where Bolton Wanderers are still wandering in relegation. grin

5. The coastal lines of Ukraine were of a truth mined by the Ukronazis which is why civilian ships cannot access the ports to export grain, thereby causing the food shortage for which Russia has be wrongly accused of blockade.

6. Confirmed the narrative that Russia have not even used 1/10th of its sheer military might on Ukraine, and as such, the tag "Special Military Operation" is appropriate.

7. There is a different between "Tactical warfare" and "Strategic Warfare". and Russia is the grandfather of the latter. cheesy

8. Russia's strategic warfare and capability is ALIEN to western military planners. grin

9. Stealth, cyber capabilities, tactics or whatever platforms the west currently have in their arsenal CANNOT unlock, overrun, or defeat this rare Russian strategy unless by an equal or superior strategy. cool

No be me talk am o... cool Na UK military Chief made these confessions. I hope jingoists like BritishNaija, Igbofam, Joyandfaith and the rest of the gangs doing life in the western prison of zombification in Langley are reading this. wink

As for my lady, Missy89, it's time you relocate back to Nigeria before the Russians completes the deployment of the Avanguard hypersonic glide vehicle and Poseidon torpedo. I don't want to lose you since Kamala Harris is set to take over power, which will then usher in the countdown to the fulfillment of Alois Irlmaier's, William Braham's and A.A Allen's prophecy on the destruction of America and the collective west in WW3. cool

Come out of mystery Babylon, oh my lady, for Zoharariel awaits you at the 163rd Siberian Submarine Brigade in the city of Warri where both of you are destined to be and have Kain and Abel. cool

See you. wink
