Lmao. Russia don't need soldiers to destroy Japan. One Hypersonic Poseidon underwater nuclear-tipped glide vehicle will create an artificial tsunami with unprecedented effect worst than the 2011 tsunami that devastated the country.

Japan is like a clay pot floating on top of water.

This was how you people were boasting before the war with Ukraine started.

See now, one month later and the flower of Russian youth are being ground into dust.

VEHINTOLAR:
Those who think Putin/Russia will succumb to pressure from the western world do not know how tough and resolute a typical Russian could be. Stalin refused to leave Leningrad even in the face of almost certain death in the hands of the rampaging Nazi's war machines. Thousands of Nazi Germans and their Finnish allied forces were later buried in Leningrad ! It's unfortunate that Mr Zelensky has naively allowed his beloved Ukraine to be used to fight a proxy war on behalf of the West against such a formidable force as the Russian military. The whole world will eventually BEG Putin to PARDON Ukraine ! That's what will happen eventually..

Putin puppet

Imagine hailing Stalin as a hero for defending his country, yet condemning Zelensky for not surrendering his country to modern day colonials.

I sure say people like you go welcome return to slavery and colonialism.

A sovereign nation is being invaded and civilians killed, but because you have amorous feelings for a tyrant, you want them to surrender and face a complete destruction of their culture and way of life.

Well, the Russians are finding out to their dismay how tough and resolute the Ukrainians can be. War that they thought would be over in a few days, e don last one month and cost the Russians dearly in blood and equipment. And it’ll last for months to come.

Nigerian cowards cannot understand the resilience of Ukrainians, so they condemn it

[quote author=bn365 post=111226800][/quote]Oh, you ignorant piglet. Every western outlet talks about Mariupol. Every one. The Ukrainian president talks about it all the time. It’s well known.
It’s a city close to the separatist enclave, where Russia has air superiority (thanks to proximity to AA units in Crimea) and has surrounded it. And yet it’s held for weeks.

So yes, Mariupol will likely fall eventually. But as it stands, Russia still is yet to take any major city. And they’re also going to take significant losses as they advance into street fighting in the city

Is that your ace in the hole? coming out with what everyone knows, and acting like it’s a big secret?


I love how you freely admit you get your news from Russian state propaganda sha

Sadr:
Quite on the contrary, they have gained more respect and fear. Why do you think the West have been running up and down? Do you know that this crisis has caused the West more money than what was seized from Russia?

Maybe in your fantasy world.

In the real world, it’s open to everyone how weak the Russian army is. Nearly a month of fighting and still yet to capture a single major Ukrainian city. Thousand of casualties, including 5 generals. Over a thousand vehicles destroyed. A significant amount of helicopters and planes shot down, including top drawer stuff like the SU-34. Poor planning, shoddy logistics and outdated armor tactics.

At the same time, the sanctions levered against Russia are driving the economy off a cliff. They haven’t opened their stock market in two weeks!

Now they’re busy pushing conscripts to the war front and trying hard to bribe foreign mercenaries from Libya and CAR. All the while appealing to China for military aid and trying to force Belarus to join the war.

Nah. They look weak. The aura is gone.

bn365:
Suddenly, you stand for something? Please
You don't stand for anything other than what the West tells you is the next thing you should stand for.

conspiracy theorists like to think that they’re the ones with open minds that know stuff that people don’t want them to know.

Ironically, y’all are the most gullible folks out there.

bn365:
Keep dumbing yourself..."if I wanted to relocate"
When they make you really uncomfortable living in a land with natural resources that they want at all costs, you'll change tunes.
Bill and Melinda Gates once said that people will be dying like flies in the streets of Africa, you bet they are going to make good on that.
Regurgitating the West's talking point doesn't make you smart and informed.
You just got lockdown for two whole years. They will lock you down again, Bill Gates said it and Fauci said it few days ago
People that are well informed will NEVER EVER be in support of the West.

At no point in your inane, incoherent response did you make any sense at all. Just peppered with the usual conspiracy theories.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with being anti-West for your own reasons. There’s everything wrong in equating ‘anti-west’ to a support of a genocidal tyrant.

Stand for something, you coward!

princeeze1:
You are even more ignorant with your last statement, please between the west and Russia who has more in the other’s territory? Do you know the collective value of the multinational cooperations that invested in Russian oil, gas and steel? Over 300 companies pulled out or suspended operations without pulling out their capital and fixed investments as there is an embargo on that. Do you know the collective value worth of over 300 foreign companies? We should be looking at over a trillion dollars. If they choose to swap seizures, the western loses would be colossal.

Nope. many of these companies pulling out do not have an extremely significant stake in Russia, and their total market cap is in billions. How can aggregating that be in trillions of dollars? Lmao.

The 300bn USD will quite comfortably pay out all the companies losing assets to nationalization, and Russia will then be kissing goodbye to foreign investment in the future. Especially when their economy plunges off the cliff.

bn365:
I didn't have the patience to read your last paragraph, and that's my bad
Well, I'm glad you went to a day school and are well-read.
I bet it helps you sleep well at night.
You're smart because you were given a certificate from an elite school, I guess? Nah.

I see a whole lot of you guys support the West in the hope you'll relocate someday, but some people can see the forest from the trees because they live in the West

Lol. If I wanted to relocate to the West, I could do that in a jiffy.

I am under no illusion how the world works, unlike you Putin groupies. The west has done shitty things in the past, but at this moment, Putin is the one waging war, he’s the aggressor and he’s the one slaughtering innocent civilians. While you gullible people swallow all his outlandish pretexts as a way to justify your senseless support for a tyrant.

Shame

Patriotic9ja:
A blind woman once said the worst thing that can happen to anyone is not being without eyes. Rather having eyes but no VISION

Have you…seen my profile status message? It’s stated there more elegantly.

Because you’re not blind, but you just will not see.

bn365:
You are calling people ignorant but you are not even aware that the West has frozen Russian central banks assets in their countries.
They are taking over Russian nationals[Roman Abramovich] assets too

I’m so sorry you cannot read. Because I directly mentioned the frozen assets and reserves in my last paragraph.

Have you tried a good night school? It’s never too late!

obiekunie01:
putin should make sure he create laws to forbid these WESTERN companies from returning to russia!

HE SHOULD COPY FROM HIS FRIEND CHIZIPIN ABI NA WETIN BE THAT HIS NAME? AM TALKING OF CHINESE PRESIDENT THAT BAN ALL THE WESTERN SOCIAL MEDIAS LIKE FB, TWITTER, ETC, AND SOME WESTERN COMPANIES LIKE MACDONALD FROM OPERATING IN CHINA.

he should also as a matter of urgency encourage his tech citizens to develop their own social app like the Chinese did and ban facebook, twitter, insta, whatassp from ever operating withing the borders of Russia!

teach them a lesson they will never forget like the Chinese did.

while he is on it, he should beg his friend chizipin to borrow him the apple template with them so his Russian tech guys can develop their own Russian version of apple products and name them fruits.

LETS SEE WHO WILL LOSE LAST LAST!

You seem to be under the impression that the Russian economy is bigger than it actually is

AroleOduduwa2:
Russia is no stranger to sanctions and have you seen the protest in Europe due to high cost of livelihood. EU will suffer the most because most of the EU countries are too reliant on Russia

Even the mighty US is now buying oil from Russia and do I need to tell you Israel is supporting Russia.

Russia has never seen sanctions this harsh. And Israel isn’t ‘supporting’ Russia in this.

The US is halting purchase of Russian oil, and Germany just signed a deal with Qatar for gas supply to reduce their dependence on Russian gas.

Patriotic9ja:
That's the way to go. This marks the beginning of the end of USA. All their lies, mischief, wickedness, hypocrisy, propaganda, wars, incitements, betrayal, brainwashing, etc are now glaring even to the BLIND

But how does that cure your blindness to the ‘ lies, mischief, wickedness, hypocrisy, propaganda, wars, incitements, betrayal, brainwashing, etc’ perpetrated by Russia?

The ignorance in this thread sha.

Russia represents just 3% of McDonalds profits. So this isn’t a significant blow to their bottom line.

Additionally, Russia hasn’t gone ahead to nationalize their assets. That’s just fake news. A Russian has applied for a new logo with that trademark, but the existing restaurants won’t open with that.

If Russia goes ahead to nationalize the assets, it’s likely that compensation will be given to McDonalds out of Russia’s frozen reserves.

So nothing spoil

Putin worshippers celebrating here, as if that will detract from the fact that the Russians are taking an absolute trashing in Ukraine.

shogsman:
You really don't know anything do you, it is so fucking obviously,you do know the mig has higher capabilities and superior than the USA f16 jets still in use today and guess what USA has over 800 f16 still in operation.
The fact that you don't know they still manufacture migs with different upgrades till today just about sums up how little u know ,by your own analogy the USA's air inventory is incapable because it was designed decades ago.

Bros, the Mig-29s in use by Ukraine are old Soviet era frames, and won’t have the improved avionics of the more modern upgraded versions. Same as the ones the Poles own (Mig 29 A/B)

Against Russian Su 27/30/35 planes, they’re at a disadvantage. Same way they’ll struggle against modern upgrades of the F16.

Don’t argue blindly

Lovenorth:
And Libya is not a sovereign state that US invaded?

I guess this means you supported the US intervention in Libya?

Because if not, that would make you a hypocrite!

perryy:
Any reason for NATO expansion to the east ?

Yes. The smaller Eastern European countries are scared of NATO.

I wonder how you clowns reason sef. You think NATO comes to grab countries at gunpoint to join? you think there isn’t an uncomfortable price to pay for joining NATO (increase in defense spending, for one)?

No, NATO isn’t forcibly expanding. Countries that are terrified of Russian adventurism are clamoring to join.

So instead of blasting NATO here, the grownup thing is to find out why these countries are so wary of Russia that they’re joining 10 year waiting lists to NATO.

You people know you can be anti-west and still use logic to analyze issues?

shogsman:
I like how bodly you people who don't know shit come here to talk.
Ukraine has over 300millitary aircraft and have a defense budget ten times more than your country, their millitary capabilities is like a dozens times higher than your country too.
Next time to avoid any insults don't say things you don't know

You said they’d gotten billions of dollars in funding from Europe and America before the war and are showing defense budget as your proof. Is everything ok with you? How are those related?
To put things into perspective, Trump’s Ukraine package was $200 million!

You also claimed they had hundreds of first gen aircraft. Meanwhile, most of their fighters are Soviet era MiG-29s! How is that nearly 40 year old platform ‘first gen’?

Let’s not even talk about how most of their tanks are also Soviet era T-72s.

Invitationn:
To put this in context, you're essentially saying the Ukrainian army abandoned 56,000 people?
Those days, you'd be on the stretcher by now, just for the way you think.

Yes. I’m saying they pulled out of a town of 56000 people. You think the civilians there will be eaten alive by the DNR folks? Civilians that are largely Russian speaking? A town that the DNR has long claimed was part of their separatist enclave?
Is everything alright with you ?

tallerSSS:
Russia will end up toppling Ukraine government and you will come back to read this your comment again..
And please dont misunderstand this as a war. If it was war, civilian casualties would have been uncountable.

This is an illogical comment. My comment will still be apt if and when Russia finally wins. Will that miraculously wipe away the fact that they’ve been extremely sub-par so far?

And please stop that crap about it not being a war. Russia is doing their utmost to win…but they’re using obsolete tactics and an army of conscripts to face determined, patriotic resistance.

They’ve not shown that much restraint. They’ve been shelling multiple Ukranian cities for weeks now, firing into residential areas.

Don’t let Putin’s lies deceive you. The bulk of Russia’s active army is in Ukraine and they’re bogged down in the grinder.

Putin is trying to virtually annex Ukraine. You think he’s not going all out for this?

jumper524:
Ukraine has seen reasons on why it shouldn't join nato. A peaceful solution to all this. Instead of western countries to hasten this peaceful resolution they are busy raining sanctions upon sanctions. They don't care about the avoidable death of civilians in Ukraine. They refused to send their troops to help Ukraine but are commercializing the war in all aspects. Bu stealing from Russians business men. Suddenly all Russian business men operating in western countries have become thieves who stole the wealth of Russians citizens according to biden.
Biden is now concerned about Russia business men. How emphatic.
70% of Russians stands with putin and we saw that in a rally he organised. The west should continue with the lies. They capitalize so much on news that doesn't favour Russia when we saw the rally yesterday.
See what my Russia friend said.

Surely you cannot be this clueless? ���

olugabbie:
The Sea of Azov is an internal sea with Russia to the east and Ukraine to the west. It is connected to the larger Black Sea by the Kerch Strait. Now Russia is in control of the entire sea of Azov.

My conversation with the other guy was about a fictional ‘Azov Oblast’. What does that have to do with the Sea of Azov?

BusinessPlan22:
Funny, Russia is on a military operation not war.

Who do you this thing?

My brother, this is a full scale war. They are pulling troops out from Armenia and other regions around Russia to go and fight.

5 generals slaughtered on the battlefield, hundreds of tanks lost, helicopter forces decimated and their VDV paratrooper units hammered. And you say na 'special operation' because that's what the Kremlin says?

tamdun:
How long does it take us to defeat Iraq? From Bush Senior to Bush junior, what about Afghanistan?

It took the US three weeks to conquer Iraq fully. Against an Iraqi army that was significantly bigger than Ukraine's active army.

The US lost 191 soldiers killed, compared to up to tens of thousands of Iraqi casualties.

Russia has been battling Ukraine for three weeks now, with no major city taken. Thousands killed (including some of their elite special forces teams) , and confirmed destruction of hundreds of vehicles and aircraft.


You can see the difference.

The truth is, if you remove nukes from the equation and the US entered Ukraine to fight the Russians, they'd slaughter them.

shogsman:
Shows how ignorant you are if you think a country with over 500,000 army, hundreds of first gen aircrafts,
thousands of tanks and ballistics missiles,with billions of dollars worth of funding from Europe and america will fall within 3 weeks.
You'd have to be stupid to think that sorry

Shows how ignorant you are if you think Ukraine had hundreds of first gen aircraft and thousands of tanks and ballistic missiles. They also hadnt gotten billions in weaponry BEFORE the war started.

The Russians thought Ukraine would fall in days. They even had prepared speeches!

Please don't come here to tell obvious lies.

Vicotex2:
Believe what ever suits you.
The entire Azov oblast is under Russia control and the said city is within it.
The same Google go still educate you

I guess the translation of this is that you don't have evidence to back up your claim that the city is bigger than Benin.


PS: There's no such thing as 'Azov Oblast'

Vicotex2:
The city is bigger than Benin brah.
I live in auchi /edo and you can't tell me shit.
Because the news no favor you, e don turn to overstatement

At your age, you no know how to use Google?

According to Google, Rubizhne is 33km2

Ekpoma is 502 km2

Kai. Your desperation knows no bounds.

Vicotex2:
shebi na you wan force Russia to rebuild Ukraine? Lol �
Even the west no fit touch those frozen money.

I see the way the west take rebuild Libya after everything

Funny you mention it. Just yesterday, the West were mentioning using seized assets from oligarchs and frozen Russian assets to rebuild Ukraine.

So dem go use the billions of pounds from the sale of Chelsea FC to fix Ukraine.

E go shock you Putin fanboys

Most recent map, from the Institute for Study of War

Vicotex2:
Ukraine only winning on social media

OP they'll see this as bad news now, you wan give them sleepless night.

"Ukrainians be killing more than 10,000 Russian armies, while Russia is only taking territories" - GoTV/BBC/Nairaland/CNN online war analyst

See the fake map you're sharing from Russian propagandists.

This map severely overstates Russian gains.

Do you know the city you're celebrating over is smaller than Ekpoma? And has changed hands between Ukraine and the separatists several times since 2014?

Lmao
To put this in context, this 'city' has a population of 56000 people. And was abandoned by the Ukrainian army.

To put this into context, Ekpoma has a population of 290000 people. So this city is six times smaller than Ekpoma.

And Putin groupies are fantasizing here

MadamVanessa:
Why all these? is it because Obiano is an igbo man? I am not in support of what Obiano did, but what is good for the goose is also good for the gander.

No. It is not because he’s an Igbo man. It’s because he allegedly stole a lot of money.

Do you see EFCC arresting Coscharis CEO? Or Innocent Chukwuma? Are they not Igbo men too?

I guess that’s where you and I differ, and it probably has to do with upbringing. Because I will never speak up for a thief, even if he’s from my tribe.
