I would not say exactly "karma". A known centre of propaganda and a gathering of people that, not being the army officially, but clearly part of the war effort in terms of spreading mis-information and pro-Z propaganda, and probably directly involved in cyberthreats... sounds to me like a perfectly valid war target. I guess war is no longer than patriotic and marvellous when you know they can blow you ass in St Petersburg right under the podcaster chairs of the "keyboard patriots division". Alas, it will take many more people's lives in both sides to get to the peace that should have never been broken. So you supported IRA bombing in UK? |

Is that a dress for elves or something?  I heard Finns removed swastika from military insignia so to be able to join NATO. But its probably just for PR reasons |

It's just easier for them to launch 100 missiles at a time from 500km away giving Ukraine enough time to intercept most of them.
They intercept most of them only in your dreams and in their PR |

Supplying arms to country that you're planning to invade. It just doesn't makes sense. But it can be said about most of Branko posts.
Again, you have problem with reading...I never mentioned invasion Also, what do you think, is it fair that former 2nd biggest Poland city of Lvov is now part of Ukraine thanks to Stalin? |

I very much doubt that Ukraine territory will be claimed from the west. Ukraine is a good ally, not like "a good friend" but more like a very good strategic ally.
Saddam was your ally too, look what that brought him |

It looks like another Yugoslavia is planned in place of Ukraine. A draft law on amendments to the Law on Ratification of the Treaty on Good Neighborly Relations and Cooperation between Romania and Ukraine has been submitted to the Senate of Romania. Romania wants to annex part of the territories of Ukraine, which it considers historically its own - this is, in a nutshell. LOL, you really post this kind of stuff seriously? You're saying that Romania wants to annex part of Ukraine territory, when actually it's just one pro-Russian politician. She is only member of party in Senate, she is in opposition and her word doesn't have no weight. You can find such people in most of parlaments in Europe, but in most cases it's minority without power. If you want to push agenda that Romania or Poland want to annex West of Ukraine, you have to try harder. You forgot Hungary too...all 3 countries lost territories that Stalin stole after WW2 and annexed to CCCP, todays Ukraine I am sure they are all jumping at the opportunity Branko. They have seen how easy is to take land from Ukraine. You just have to declare a military "operation", send over thousands of tanks, hundreds of thousands of people, support the international backlash, the tens of thousands of dead coming home in bags, be declared a war criminal, get other countries aligned against you... Who wants to be next? Now, do I need to remind you that European democracies rarely go to war after WW II? Particularly, they have not waged war against each other for more than half a century. Hey, who was talking about invasion? After Russia takes east part, they will annex west parts to "protect" them from "evil Russians". revert historical injustices and such |

Where's that Ukrainian 'greatest counter-offensive' we've been hearing about? Last week it was bad weather. This week it's something about new gear and saving Bakhmut or some such. 'Excuses are like assholes', so they say.
...
Yes, no Ukrainian offensive is planned, do not worry. Just keep on throwing the official "truth" here and keep on attacking Bakhmut - it is very important for the RF to conquer another flattened town that is in the middle of nowhere and in artillery range from the other side of the river. You do not have to worry about the nearly state of the art nearly 100 main battle tanks coming from US and Europe and those few hundred IMFV. That is just for defence, so no offensive planned in the next few weeks. Sleep well, read the Pravda, listen to Radio Moscow and keep drinking Stolichnaya. Propaganda: thousand Russians die in mindless human wave attacks Reality: https://t.me/intelslava/45135https://t.me/vicktop55/13731 |

Ask Putin this question.
Earth to Russia: empires are out, and nation-states are in. Pay attention.
meh To have functional empire, you need at least 500 military bases around the globe |

Very honorable of them, martyring themselves for the US and Nato. The world will remember them... for a few short years. When you're dead, Russian soldiers can't kill you, and US/Nato countries can't let you die. But why let your kids die for nothing. Oh, yes. Honor. Imaginary honor?  They eagerly awaited Russia to attack them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwcwGSFPqIo |

Any predictions for where we will be March 2024?
Celebrating with your friends?  You seem just as confident now as you were almost exactly 1 year ago when you were defending the fact that the special military operation was still going on weeks later not because Russia was facing any setbacks, they just wanted to minimize civilian casualties is all...and don't worry, there will be a Parade in Kiev come May...
When it comes to the future, you always have to deal with probabilities, because, unlike the present, the future is not yet a fait accompli. The probabilistic nature of the future does not allow making predictions with 100% accuracy. When making my prediction regarding the victory parade in Kyiv, I proceeded from the assumption that Ukraine will soberly assess its capabilities in confrontation with Russia and will act in accordance with prudence and its own benefit. However, I was wrong in this assumption - Ukraine chose to get involved in a suicidal adventure, completely neglecting the instinct of self-preservation and acting to its own detriment. In all respects, it would have been wiser and more profitable for Ukraine to unconditionally capitulate a year ago. Why would they capitulate? Everything points toward conclusion that they were preparing 8 years for this war, and never had intention to accept Minsk 2 |

I do not think there is an advantage to the attacker, irrespectively of the means of each. For what I am getting in interviews the RF does advance, but the cost in lives is very high. Basically they are sending "human decoys" to "detect" Ukrainian positions. Ukraine would have left the place if they felt it was not the right place.
I am going to leave to you to think why have they decided that it is the right place. Why are they there, why are they holding the place and what they may be waiting for. You do not need to be a genius to answer that.
As side note, the range of HIMARS means they do not have to be "there".
Meanwhile, the RF air force has decided that it is ok to down US drones in international waters. I wonder what may happen next.
Himars? What Himars? When was the last time you heard about one? And those "interviews", you really learned nothing from ghost of Kiev, babushkas destroying Russian drones with cucumber jars, and ukrainian grandpas shooting Migs with shotguns? |

I think Russia has no reason to take Bakhmut...why chase enemy when other side is readily bringing new soldiers for
easy kill
Have you taken a look at the map? What can you see in the vicinity of Bakhmut? Elevated positions with cover of rocks, trees, hills, river banks? Do you see anything in there that looks like a good attacking position? No, you do not, it is exactly the opposite - You will see a nightmare for the attacker, were they are detected klicks away from the defending positions. Would you like to be the attacker there Branko? Can't people just google before saying something silly? The only reason to attack it is because it is the Donbas and the RF needs to take the Donbas to be able to sell some short of "victory" to the world. Wagnerites are expendable, people from Dagestan and other satellites of Moscow are spendable. As I write this post, I am looking at the videos of Ukrainians training in Leopards. They seem veeeery pleased. Just stay away and fire few salvos from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOS-1Then wait for Ukrainians to replace soldiers you just killed Repeat Wait for the TOS to fire, send counterbattery fire, wait for the next TOS. Repeat. Artillery range wise, there is nothing to be done. Does not matter if you use napalm or frag, RF does not have the range advantage, nor air advantage, nor terrain advantage. Intelligence wise and location, Ukraine is getting plenty of "Gospel from the Sky" and has quite an active partisanship work behind enemy lines. This battle place has been chosen by Ukraine and Wagnerites are trying to prove a point... at any cost. What counterbattery? Ukrainians have no artillery worth mentioning there |

This whole thing is getting more absurd (and obvious) by the day.
Over and over everyone keeps talking about Russia doing their 'greatest offensive.' Everyone except Russia that is.
Russia said they were going to de-militarize Ukraine. There is no better and less costly (in human life) way than to have a grinding war of attrition which lasts for years, provided the fighting is done at a time and place of one's choosing.
[...]
Take Bahkmud; Kiev evacuated their chosen (the Nationalist swastika-bearing units) out a while ago and stuffed in all of the child soldiers, old men, etc that their commissars kidnapped from around the country that they could. Exactly like stuffing handfuls of meat into a grinder. Then they let the Russians close the flanks until there was only one muddy road in which is under fire control of the Russians from ranges where the Russian artillery is untouchable. To top it off, they blew up the bridge needed for those who make it through the turkey-shoot.
(*) These 'mistakes' are not novice mistakes on the part of military buffoons. These are well executed plans to 'lose' by people who knew what they were doing. I'm ever more convinced of it. It makes perfect sense if you re-evaluate what 'losing' and 'winning' means to various people.
BTW, a very similar thing is happening in the U.S. with respect to the 'mistakes' made by their decision-makers related to NATO and this operation. America is slotted for demolition also, and by the same basic groups of people.
As usual, raw and senseless propaganda without any source nor any need to justify anything that is said here. This is just food for people who already have their stomach full of the official mantras or want to believe that the RF army is under any kind of control of what is happening in Ukraine. An interpretation that matches reality: Ukraine does not leave Bahkmud because, despite being under a strong offensive, they can make the untrained, enslaved and sometimes criminal wagnerites pay 100 men for each square meter of land. Even a troll like you must be aware that there are public discussions between Pringozin (Wagner's owner) and Shoigu, including accussations of lavish vacation for the children while their negligence sends RF soldiers by the hundreds to serve a soil fertiliser. Contrary to him, you presented ample amount of data to strengthen your words...videos, links, pictures... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAogk_0XbCY |

Putin speech today was boring and waste of time, he again repeats old stuff.
You are right, and yet you watched it. But Zelensky's speeches are not particularly popular in Russia, I think no one watches them at all. And Biden's recent speech from Kyiv did not arouse any interest, except perhaps for the fact that the United States asked Russia for guarantees of his safety a few hours before the unannounced visit. Now Russia is the actual guarantor of security in Europe, remember this. And even in Poland, Biden spoke from behind a bulletproof barrier because he is afraid and knows there is a new sheriff in the city.  Its funny how the president of the USA had to travel by train, as if he's afraid of all those Ukrainians he armed to the teeth with all kind of AA defense, but not too picky about choosing targets, even if its their own ministers |
