Foreign AffairsStraits Of Homuz Update: The Oil Purchasing Power Shift by Lordly13(op): 6:24pm On Apr 11
Massive numbers of completely empty oil tankers, some of the largest anywhere in the World... Are moving to the United States to load up with oil

The US already has a large number of "oil buying nations" buying from them.
Since Europe, America, and the Carreaben don't depend on the Strait of Homuz, it's closure has minimal effects on them.

But now, those nations affect are now moving to the United States to buy oil. Since the United States has been the largest oil producers in the world (by OPEC rating), they have more oil than the 2nd and 3rd largest oil producing nations combined.

Donald Trump:
"Massive numbers of completely empty oil tankers, some of the largest anywhere in the World, are heading, right now, to the United States to load up with the best and “sweetest” oil (and gas!) anywhere in the World. We have more oil than the next two largest oil economies combined - and higher quality. We are waiting for you. Quick turnaround!" President DJT

Foreign AffairsRussia Suffers ‘record’ Soldier Casualties As Ukraine Ups Drone Production by Lordly13(op):
Recent figures reveal that Russian soldier casualties in Ukraine have reached a record high, with a significant increase in March.

Ukraine’s armed forces reported 35,351 Russian casualties last month, marking a 29% rise from February.

Notably, drones were responsible for 96% of these losses, with artillery and small arms fire causing the remainder.

Ukrainian Defence Minister Mykhailo Fedorov confirmed these losses with video evidence of each strike. This casualty rate slightly surpasses the previous record set in December, underscoring a steady rise in Russian losses throughout 2026.

Additionally, Russia’s recruitment efforts are falling short. While aiming to recruit 409,000 contract soldiers this year, averaging 1,120 daily, actual recruitment was only 940 troops per day in the first quarter, potentially leading to a 65,000-man shortfall.

Ukraine’s “I Want to Live” initiative, which facilitates Russian soldiers’ surrender, highlights this manpower deficit as a strategic weakness.

Territorial gains by Russia are also declining. The Institute for the Study of War reports that Russian forces captured an average of 5.5 square kilometers per day in 2026, down from 10.66 in mid-2025 and 14.9 at the end of 2024.

Ukrainian President Zelenskyy linked this manpower crisis to Russia’s recent ceasefire demand, suggesting it aims to avoid further heavy losses by forcing Ukraine to retreat in eastern Donetsk.

Ukraine continues to target a monthly Russian casualty goal of over 50,000 to weaken Russian forces irreversibly.

I agree with you.

Russia is truly struggling against Ukraine. Imagine if Ukraine had not given up her weapons back in the day.

I see israel as the most war hardened and war strategy country. I also believe that GOD Almighty has been protecting israel too.

Ordinarily, I do not like Russia.
That's true, that's the same reason Putin won't attack neighbouring countries like Finland, Poland and Hungary when they applied for NATO membership. These nations are fully NATO now.

Why didn't Putin attack Finland in 2022 while they were applying for NATO membership?

He saw Ukraine with small military.


Putin is a coward who attacks only small nations.

Russia could have easily made a deal with Ukraine to create an economic body like the UN or NATO. Instead, Putin chose war.

If Ukraine is well armed with high range missiles like Iran, Russia would have begged for a cease fire since.

Let's assume Ukraine is this present stubborn Iran, the whole of Petersburg and Moscow would have turned to rubbles. Russia would have chickened out of the senseless war.
Absolutely, Ukraine signed a deal with Russia before 2015 to reduce their military, then Putin seeing the reduced military attacked Cremia.

But now, Russia is struggling against a very small military with very little resources

Last year, Russia took only 0.8% of Ukraine, but lost 400k soldiers for just that.

dgitrader:
In as much as we condemne dictators and terror regimes. This pictures does not in anyway represent Iranian women. Over 90% Iranian dress in western style but are required to cover most of their hair, leaving a small part open. They don't even wear hijabs. This pictures are rare or extreme cases, which is normal even in northern and southern Nigeria.

Most people still think Iranians are Arabs, far from it. Persians are more like Europeans in many ways, not what the ayatollahs want you to believe
Yeah Iranians are Persian who's culture was overthrown by Muslim terrorists who took the government.

The ayatollahs being ruling and oppressing Iran for 45 years.

franchasng:
I watch the war updates daily on some exclusive TG channels and they are correct. Ukraine's locally made drone really dealt a serious blow on Russia last year.

North Korea alone lost over 20,000 soldiers they sent to Russia to help Russia. That was why Kim Jung Un hurriedly went and built apartments for those fallen North Korean soldiers using the money Putin gave him to pacify North Korean military.


If Ukraine had missiles like Iran, honestly by now Putin will be in exile in North Korea hiding shocked



Russia the paper tiger nation
Putin is all talk, Ukraine has no air force, no navy, yet about 30 Russian refineries has been destroyed by Ukraine since the start of the war.

Putin is a joke

Bro, let me ask you a serious question; Can you read?

What's your mental challenge?

Where did it say the attack failed? Use your head


Okay, let me highlight the news for you.

The words
Hit
Disrupted
Damaged
Forced to stop production

All means "destroyed"

If I ATTACK or HIT a refinery with multiple drone missiles, what do you think will happen to it?

Use your head, where did it say the attack failed

Foreign AffairsAl Jazeera Reports 400,000 Russian Soldiers Killed, Wounded For 0.8% Ukraine by Lordly13(op): 7:46pm On Apr 07
Al Jazeera reports that over 400,000 Russian soldiers were killed or wounded in 2025. And Only 0.8% of Ukraine.

This casualty figure corresponds to Russia capturing only about 0.8 percent of Ukrainian territory during 2025.

The reports emphasize the high human cost Russia has paid for very limited territorial gains.

In 2025, the war in Ukraine inflicted a heavy toll on Russian forces, with over 400,000 Russian soldiers killed or wounded. This staggering casualty figure corresponds to the cost Russia paid for capturing only about 0.8 percent of Ukrainian territory. According to Ukraine’s General Staff, this highlights the extreme human price Russia has endured for relatively minimal territorial gains.

Despite these significant losses, Russian President Vladimir Putin appears determined to avoid peace talks, signaling a continued commitment to military action rather than diplomatic resolution. Could it be shame if losing to a much smaller nation?

Ukraine’s resilience and defense efforts have resulted in severe attrition of Russian forces, even as the war drags on.

The situation reflects a grim reality where Russia’s military advances have been limited despite enormous sacrifices, prolonging instability and suffering in the region.

This dynamic emphasizes the urgent need for diplomatic engagement to prevent further loss of life and destruction, as the war’s continuation threatens broader regional and international consequences.

The conflict remains a critical focus for global observers seeking pathways to peace amid ongoing hostilities.

Foreign AffairsRe: Breaking: Iran Defy Trump, Use Women And Children As Human Shield At Energy Site by Lordly13: 6:27pm On Apr 07
This animals are rotten to the core, use women and children for defense.

That's why Iranians were protesting against their government last year.


Their new supreme leader unconscious? Na, he's dead already.

Nlfpmod and Fergie, come and see proof that Russia is a paper tiger developing country using nuclear weapon to scare adversaries away from decimating Russia.


Imagine Russia the paper tiger have not been able to defeat Ukraine since 2023 they foolishly invaded Ukraine that had no formal Navy or Airforce back then. Now Russia have made Ukraine to grow big teeth that is now biting Russia harder than they ever imagined.



This war has toughened Ukraine and brought out the ingenuity in them and trust me, the next war they will have with Russia, Russia will be completely overrun by Ukraine.


No wonder a friend of mine living in Moscow said economic hardship is increasing daily in Russia, this report just proved my friend right, wow shocked
The war has expecialy strengthens Ukraine's technological industries, but has a bad effect on Russia's oil export, which is 95% of Russian economy.

Russia has always lost more man in any war.


WW1 Russia lost 8million, more than any nation.

WW2 Russia lost 10million, more than any nation.

Finland 100 days war, Russia was defeated with embarrassment.

1905 Japan war, Russia lost so much industrial might in that war.

Russia become the first European nation to be defeated by an Asian nation (Japan).
