  1. I wonder if other gen 4 air forces operating MIG and Sukhoi aircraft (e.g., India) would be convinced to sell them to Ukraine if Uncle Sugar and its Auntie EU would pay them enough.
  2. well, the Ukrainians are having a bit of dark humor with this
  3. THIS IS PATHETIC Also, why would they need to have passenger vehicles? To remove people. Why would you need to remove people? Where would you put people? In camps? In camps where you could concentrate all the non-compliant types? In concentration camps?
  4. The silver bullet would be to stockpile Japanese, Australian and American ground forces in token to non-token numbers.
  5. The central idea is contained in the tweet. The nuances are in the article as a practitioner of air power I would LOVE to see F-35s and F-22s proving themselves on a battlefield for Xi to see before he contemplates this coming invasion of Taiwan. However, as a person who enjoys having a non-nuclear suntan and low levels of radioactive material in my atmosphere, lets be careful. Also, Ukraine can kick Putin's ass with aid + intel + lend lease equipment.
  6. Oooh...this is good
  7. Scraping the bottom of the barrel to send these guys
  8. i gather the former President said some asanine things last night because my Twitter feed has F-22 and Trump trending.
  9. original tweet didn't embed
  10. https://twitter.com/michaeldweiss/status/1500192565764763652?s=21 amazing
  11. Kacie, i apologize for getting into a “whose suffering matters more” dialogue. It all sucks. Ukraine matters because its the 44m people economy trying to join EU and is in the bullseye of Putin. Yemen is the messy side of the messy side of the hot mess of the World. But the people in either place matter and the international community should hope that they give succor to all.
  12. Yes, Putin conducted negative stakeholder analysis
  13. The notable item is the UAV. Russian UAV skills are weak CNN had video of the Mi-8 going down.
  14. just hearing about the Zelensky zoom meeting with US lawmakers. It sounds like a lot of enthusiasm for supporting. Zelensky asked for a no-fly zone. Not hearing if the lawmakers expressed any support for that.
  15. Im not mad that Ukraine’s suffering isnt woke
  16. The allies are NATO which is a formal alliance.
  17. not likely but definitely nauseating
  18. So, draw your own conclusions about this guy's state of mind
  19. Having some awareness of the crap on these trains. They are scraping the bottom of the barrel. Russia has more human resources to send at Ukraine but the people of Russia are awakening to the idea that they have an Afghanistan on their hands in which there are 40M mujaheddin armed with the most effective western weapons.
  20. Yeah, Pence in this is Erdogan: a skunk who is helpful to us right now.
  21. The reporters in the Ukraine war are definitely becoming part of the story. I saw Clarissa Ward helping some old people out of the rubble while on camera doing her report.
  22. they have way better material
