How would America react with Mexico suddenly allowed Chinese troops to march near their borders? At best, probably the same way we reacted with the Bay of Pigs invasion, which failed miserably.

What would happen if Finland invaded Australia????????

Not confirmed yet, but The Freedom Of Russia Legion has apparently captured the base near Grayvoron where nukes were being stored. Russia claimed they were evacuating nukes from the facility, let’s see if they evacuated them in time.

Those weapons are useless without the launch codes, but the thought of neo Nazis with weapons grade uranium scares me.

If true, it just further shows how poor the condition of Russia’s army is. Belgorod’s regional officials have reported 4 settlements have been partially or completely captured, an area larger than Bakhmut captured in 6 hours.

https://www.reddit.com/r/UkraineWarRoom ... utm_term=1

What the hell? How big is this attack? What are they trying to do?

Probably just sew some chaos on the border. Make it harder for Russia to transport men and material in and out of Belgorod.

Well, it does conclude the fighting over the front for now. I believe it is fit to call Bakhmut the Leningrad of the 21st Century.

Yeah Russia got touched on its home turf. The russiaboos were just about to celebrate Bakhmut (or the area it once was in) being taken, and then this happened.

There is an army base north of Kozinka, I think the insurgents are going for that.

You are misunderstanding the concept: Russia is invading Russia because invading the Ukraine is too boring and they seek a real challenge for their wonderful and mighty military, which is at the height of its power and is equipped with weapons, which even the Americans would want. Key advantages of the Super-Duper Special Military Self-Tending Operation (SDSMSTO for short) include, but are not limited to, when Russia fights Russia, Russia can't loose but only win, the Russian Navy doesn't get involved, ergo doesn't loose any ships to storms in calm weather and, last but not least, when everyone knows how to drive the other one's tanks, everyone gets a tank!

What would happen if Finland invaded Australia????????

It would probably go like the time when Scotland tried to colonize Panama. So a Chinese victory resulting in Finland’s voluntary annexation by the United Kingdoms of Sweden and Norway?

Sorry no, peace isn't attainable until Putin stops insisting on keeping his ill-gotten gains.


Your position advocates for indefinite, endless war. Ill-gotten or not, the notion that Russia must give up everything(which they won’t) means this conflict will go on for years. Perhaps a decade or more. Hundreds of thousands will die. It’s as if mankind is addicted to war. As soon as one ends, people justify another, and another, and another. Our species is not well. I wish us to be more bonobo, less chimp, if you will. Peace must always be option, it is the most precious thing on the planet.

Assuming reports from telegram channels are true then the Belgorod attack is such a fuck up. Tons of money spent on fortifications in Belgorod and Ukrainians somehow manage to take over Russian villages by driving through main road... :lol:
