Ukrainian 575 reeper destroys nuclear equipped t22 fighter . This was not in sky but on a base.
Hoping no civilians were killed, but
International support for Ukraine is pouring in on the heels of a Ukraine-Balkans summit held in Athens, Greece.
Ten Balkan and European countries signed a joint declaration to express their support for Ukraine on Tuesday.
War is a nasty affair.
Ukraine continues to kill maim and destroy Russians and their mercenaries whether they hide behind human shields or whether the reside outside of the Ukrainian theater. Ukraine will continue to destroy Russians. Without a cease fire without peace negotiates until Russians no longer occupy Ukraine.
They have begun a standard no prisoner no mercy no negotiate...
Until Russia is no longer a threat to their sovereignty. They negotiated a treaty to allow grain exports Russia violated that agreement they signed a non proliferation treaty with Russia Russia violated that they didn't bomb Moscow first now they assault that city as Moscow did Marisol. They not going to stop...
U til every russian in Ukraine is gone or dead...
Winter approaches and Moscow wants to negotiate . Kyiv is not going to talk with Russia until Russia removes its troops to a pre 2014 Olympic stage and it liberates Ukraine from the dictator Putin.
Putin would like to travel and participate in the brick summit. But interpol won't rescind the warrant. Russia would like to address the world in the Un. But not many countries remain in there seat.
Russian generals stated they will nuke any cou try that arrests putin. And nato states if tou use nuclear weop9ns we will vaporize every russian city from Moscow to kamachka.
Russian propagand and fear m I needing has led Russia to a point where they are now shunned by every free nation around the world.
Those nations took e ery possession of the russian oligarchs world wide assets. Their cards don't work. Now Russia is pleading to d a af ears. Russia either surrenders their world dominance ideals or their will be much suffering for the russian people.
Putin is now dying of cancer. And can get no treatment for his disease from western nations...the russian military has already matinee. And divided itself.... Russia options are limited ..
Two choices withdraw or die...
not certain but i think this roughly coincides with the arriving usa abrams tanks and soon some f-16s
or is putin just now realizing he wont get want he wants ??
what do u think , nature1970 ?
@kelly, promising something like tanks or jets, and actually delivering weapons to a trained crew to operate and maintain the equipment is a huge time concern.
What Russia underestimated was ukraines ability to construct and deliver 9ne way ordinances. Drones.
he Institute for the Study of War, a U.S.-based think tank, said in analysis of the conflict in Ukraine on Wednesday that Russian forces may have focused their air defenses on covering the capital, Moscow, and somehow missed the unusually large number of Ukrainian drones that reportedly struck the Pskov airfield.
The think tank said Russian sources, including the Russian Ministry of Defense, claimed that Russian air defenses and electronic warfare systems had downed Ukrainian drones over Oryol, Tula, Voronezh, Ryazan, Kaluga, Bryansk, and Moscow regions.
As far as nice war isn't nice it brings out the worst in humans. The military it's personal and weapon system is designed to murder people and destroy things.
That is its soul at the core.
Reference , art of war .
Will the joe biden regime go to a 'hot war' with Russia? They just might. Why? To invoke the War Powers Act. The War Powers Act will eliminate the election of 2024! Imagine that! There are not enough Dizzy's, fubah's, Kelly's and WSC's to defeat the current legitimate POTUS named Donald John Trump!
Hoping that accelerates and continues until the Russky invaders are driven out all Ukraine lands.
Very interesting how the Leftist Media again jumps to report without the facts when it supports their narrative; yet, are slow to retract their earlier reporting and just hope it goes away. For example a good question:
"Now, how many Western news outlets that published the "Russian attack" on the market are going to retract their story and point blame at Ukraine given evidence has come out? Will Blinken retract his accusations of the attack and state once and for all it was Ukraine? That's right, they won't. They will continue to lie and bury the truth from the public."
Nobody likes to admit that they’re wrong . Ever . It’s a debilitating human trait . We all carry it but the strong ones fight against it . Kinda like holding in flatulence in an elevator . I squeeze my cheeks to the max and prevent that doo doo devil air from escaping my dungeon’s inner sanctum . Sadly I can attest that not all people do the same . I’m talking to you my last vacation …..
While I'm stopping by....one year later, I stand by my prognostication....
When the dollars stop flowing slavi ukraini will be when the peace agreement is made....still lots of defense contractor money to be made / laundered for the global elites. BlackRock and company is ready & waiting in the wings to to begin money launder & resource pillage part II, whoops...I mean, rebuild the Country 
Well, that didn't take long....
White House warns Israel crisis is stretching its ability to support Ukraine: “Running out of runway”
Biden administration moving with ‘sense of alacrity’ as John Kirby says aid won’t be ‘indefinite’
The White House said it was “running out of runway” on supporting both Ukraine and Israel as US Republican lawmakers warned they would protest any funding request for military aid from the Biden administration for the two crisis-hit nations.
“I think in the immediate term, right now, we can continue to support – with the authorities in the appropriations we have – Israel and Ukraine. But, you know, we’re ... certainly running out of runway,” said John Kirby, a spokesperson for the National Security Council.
Mr Kirby was answering a question at a daily briefing on the administration meeting the immediate needs of Ukraine and Israel along with the continuing fight to elect a House Speaker
Mr Kirby said the US administration had the means to support both Israel and Ukraine in the near term. “But you don’t want to be trying to bake in long-term support when you’re at the end of the rope,” he said on Wednesday.
“And on the Ukraine funding, we’re coming near to the end of the rope. I mean, today we announced $200mn, and we’ll keep that aid going as long as we can, but it’s not going to be indefinite,” he said, adding that the US is moving with “a sense of alacrity”.
He added a certain date could not be put on “near term” because it hinged on Ukraine’s expenditure rate and replenishment ability.
The National Security Council coordinator also said the House Speaker position was critical in terms of bringing legislation to the floor and moving things forward.
“So the sooner that there’s a Speaker of the House, obviously, the more comfortable we’ll all be in terms of being able to support Israel and Ukraine,” he said.
The White House has been considering a budget request tying money for these two conflicts together to increase the chances that the heavily-debated assistance for Ukraine will be approved.
Mid.... you stated this multiple times since the war began.... here we are coming up on 2 years later and that is exactly what is going to happen. Russian control of Eastern Ukrainian lands that moving forward, will be under Russian control to create a "land buffer" between Russia and Western powers. This plus the demilitarization of Ukraine (one of Putin's goals), billions and billions of US monetary & military aid spent....and for what exactly?
Just another example of failed US foreign policy....Afghan, Iraq II, Vietnam.... what did American "gain" from these conflicts. Students of history know the intentions going into each example and know how those intentions and goals failed to live up to expectations. Once again, this time with a proxy war, failure.
One day the US, and the world, might learn lessons from history and not go blindly into the support under the false pretenses government and their media portray, spoon feeding the sheep. Only for the next generation a decade or so later to realize the mistakes of their elders but not learn from them. This thread is a perfect example of the western narratives being fed at the outset of the war versus what the truth and reality actually is today.
Those "forever Ukraini" types who banged the war drum and insisted Putin "won't get an inch of Ukrainian land".....where are they now?? Their world views turned upside down? Nope, likley not... they will just forget and move on, the disappointment tucked away within or just plain denial. Sad that some can't learn from history, it is all right there in front of us, no excuse really.

TIME Magazine that had named Zelensky "Man of the Year" now quotes one of Zelensky's closest aids;
https://time.com/6329188/ukraine-volodymyr-zelensky-interview/
The aide said Zelensky "deludes himself," adding, "We’re out of options. We’re not winning. But try telling him that." The report said that the idea of negotiating peace or a temporary truce with Russia remains taboo to Zelensky.
In some branches of the military, the shortage of personnel has become even more dire than the deficit in arms and ammunition. One of Zelensky’s close aides tells me that even if the U.S. and its allies come through with all the weapons they have pledged, “we don’t have the men to use them.”
Amid all the pressure to root out corruption, I assumed, perhaps naively, that officials in Ukraine would think twice before taking a bribe or pocketing state funds. But when I made this point to a top presidential adviser in early October, he asked me to turn off my audio recorder so he could speak more freely. “Simon, you’re mistaken,” he says. “People are stealing like there’s no tomorrow.”
This is really sad. A preventable war, preventable deaths.
