greggng:Guy you know nothing about this war. Let me break it down for you.... You're constantly being harassed by a group of cultists. Eventually, you and the cultists sign a peace pact that they'll leave you alone. One day you hear that your next-door neighbor is being wooed by those same cultists and, from what you've seen so far, the only reason the cultists want your neighbor to join is so it'll be easier for them to attack you using his house as a launchpad. Will you fold your hands and watch this happen? I hope you now understand Only a tree will stand in a spot when it sees the farmer coming with a chainsaw. Russia is doing what every other country will do when its sovereignty and its people are threatened. In 1962, Russia set up a missile base in Cuba. Cuba is around 90miles from Florida. Because of this, US went to war with Cuba. Ever heard of the Cuban missile crisis? If US couldn't tolerate that shit, why is it doing same to another country? Isn't that hypocrisy of the highest order? cc Staphylococcus 2 Likes |

GetSenseNow: Why didn’t Russia attack Finland? Cos same scenario plays. Finland shares about 800 miles of land boarders with Russia? And come to think of it, why are all the territorial Neighbor’s of Russia aligning with NATO? If all your neighbors are fleeing from you, look inwards. You are the problem. |

Staphylococcus: Don't you read the word of fighting in proximity, or you can't understand what I meant? Russia is fighting all Western powers led by US, including NATO member states of Eastern Europe and Japan with South Korea in proximity, Ukraine only using as the theatre of war. Question google to know how much US, UK, France, Germany, Poland and others has spent over this war, then you'll salute Russia. Logically, Russia is fighting US and her allies not Ukraine, 1 Like 2 Shares |

BreconHills: https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/16/politics/patriot-missile-damage-ukraine/index.html The Feds acknowledge a Patriot battery was damaged. According to them it was not destroyed. I don't expect them to admit it was destroyed, but they're likely correct in their assessment. Patriot is not the most advanced AD in US inventory. It performed woefully in the past although they've had ample time to correct its deficiencies and upgrade its capabilities. More AD systems will be destroyed by Russia because effective AD cover require multiple systems working in sync. Ukraine does not have that. It's AD coverage is a cacophony of disparate ADs designed and calibrated for wildly different operational conditions. Lots of gaps and vulnerabilities. As for your quip about taking out every AD system. This takedown demonstrates the capability. And the focus is on destroying most of the materiel stored for the upcoming offensive. The MoD will decide how and when it is necessary to take out AD systems. No point taking out an AD battery protecting the UKR General Staff whom are untouchable at the moment when there are depots with tons of ammo situated elsewhere. However, when Patriot or any other similar system is used to safeguard sites of interest, it'll be taken out as demonstrated yesterday. Meanwhile, I'm still waiting for Ukraine and the Pentagon to provide proof that they brought down a hypersonic missile with an SAM that it is not rated to intercept. Saying the Patriot took down a Kinzhal is like saying a Howitzer took down an F-35. The physics does not compute. You cannot say that a Patriot Battalion that failed to protect Saudi oil facilities from low-tech Iranian drones operated by Houthi rebels in 2019 somehow shot down a next-gen missile you haven't been able to replicate. Like, push your propaganda with sense. -Lord 3 Likes |

Re: Russia Destroys $1.1billion US Patriot Missile System In Ukraine by Princedapace(m): 8:58pm On May 16, 2023 |
Staphylococcus: baba, no be propaganda o. It was destroyed. The tactics was simple. Attack the system from multiple directions and Ukraine lacked enough batteries to shoot all down. It was bound to happen. To effectively use it, u need sufficient batteries that can withstand all missiles from all directions. Ukraine doesnt have such as they are fighting a country that has to capacity to send missiles from multiple directions. One or two defence system couldnt have withstand such multiple targets that came in at the same time. It was just pure logic. All of the systems built by America, Russia, UK, China, all can be stopped becus all are made by humnas. The only difference is the country with much more of that systems. |

Staphylococcus: Russia HASN'T attacked Finland. You don't even seem to understand what's happening in international geo-politics. You think this war with Ukraine is the highlight of this conflict? hahahahahaha.....my young man, you're so naive. Let me explain something to you; Russia is/has shown the world that NATO/US isn't as strong as they claim they are. Currently, Russia is under up to 2500 sanctions and they're still waxing stronger. This is what's giving countries the confidence to join BRICS, and to abandon the USD as the reserve currency for international trade. You see what happened in Saudi Arabia, South Africa etc recently? It's only a matter of time other countries will join BRICS. For reference, NATO countries control only 25% of world economy. Let that sink into your brain for awhile. What you're witnessing is the end of a unipolar world, and the start of a multi-polar world. US/NATO fell into Russia's trap, and it's unfortunate that Zellensky foolishly allowed/is allowing his country be used as a pawn in this game of giants 1 Like 1 Share |
