Russia & Ukraine

That is the engine part. The explosive part separated.

And yes, it is horrifying. War, started by Russia, is horrifying. Murdering and torturing untold thousands of Ukrainian civilians is horrifying. Russia is a monster and will not be able to wash this off itself for the next 100 years.

I don't disagree with any of this. Assuming that was actually written on the missile and not after it hit the ground for propaganda purposes, the person who wrote it should be boiled in their own pudding.

Especially considering the love Russians and Ukrainians have for children. Even during Soviet Union, there was always a soft spot for children (as there should be).
 
Excellent points in this. The world has been waiting for a post-American world since 1999 and still isn’t here. As a matter of fact of the countries that were supposed to be major players in the post-American world many of them are actually diminished- Russia, Brazil, South Africa.

A lot of these countries are finding out it’s not so easy to make yourself into a true world power and falling out of power is easy - ask Russia.

Obviously, you’ll have to use the translation feature if you want to read the whole piece. Interesting stuff about the US/China competition going forward - even though I have doubts the Chinese can truly match the US on the world stage anytime soon.

Hate to break it to you but life is cheap to Russians. I mean everyone loves their children but not everyone will just leave their dead to rot in a foreign land, open to the elements.

Really. How many Russians do you have a close relationship with, Usualname?

Life is cheap in Russia. You can tell by the way they are treating their fallen in Ukraine. If you disagree then you disagree but what they are doing to those kids is a sin.

And we’ve been through this. I know a few former Russians. You know a few and you’re married to one. You lived in Moscow and trained to sell out your country in the 1990s. So what?

Whoopdy-doo. We are in what, day 50, and these idiots have lost 20-30 percent of their fighting force. Russia was supposed to be a world power and instead they had to retreat and regroup. That’s not power.

Nevertheless, the force that the Ukrainians are facing in the east is to be greatly feared. Greatly.

I know you are not saying otherwise. But...the Ruskies are getting another rather large bite at the apple. There is of course lots of news about weapons coming in, but also signs that it just is not there as needed. That will sort itself out soon in the hardest way possible.
