Yes, I believe in the SBU supremacy
The SBU has struck the Crimean Bridge for the third time. Underwater.

The operation took several months. SBU agents planted charges on the supports of this illegal structure. And today, without any civilian casualties, at 4:44 AM, the first explosive device was detonated!

The underwater pylons were heavily damaged at the seabed level—1,100 kg of explosives (TNT equivalent) contributed to this. In effect, the bridge is now in a critical condition.

They attacked one of the piers for the big steel truss part of the rail bridge over the channel. Likely unusable for now.

*Information not confirmed*
Additionally, some information is spreading in the russian information space claiming that russians themselves assembled the Ukrainian drones that attacked russian strategic bombers yesterday for a salary — who thought they were helping the russian army.

oh, they were helping Russia in the end. Any work that furthers the decimation of the Russian military and the death of Putin is helping Russia

I'm impressed they managed to do this without depending on US Government/ Starlink.

Ukraine probably has their own hush hush version of star link running for military capabilities or maybe the Ukranians used Russia cell signal towers to connect to the drones.

Ingenius really.. while they're trying to stop meatbags.. the Russkies now have to bother with trying to stop radio waves.

They should surround all their airfields with a faraday cage. That'll show 'em.

Seems Russia is suffering from a potato shortage. they've also bought out all of Belarus's potatoes too so now they are lacking too. Vodka might be in short supply this year. I should have invested in potato futures.

I'm sure Europe would be happy to supply him with some potato for free if he leaves Ukraine

To paraphrase Malory Archer: "The classic Russian's dilemma. Do I eat the potato or ferment it and drink it later?"

Necessity is the mother of invention. War, the father.

I was once blessed with the wisdom of an old time mechanic that was sort'a a role model of mine when he said to me "Laziness is the mother of invention." I didn't have, nor could I argue against that pearl since the day he uttered those words.

To quote Kurt von Hammerstein-Equord:
I divide my officers into four classes as follows: the clever, the industrious, the lazy, and the stupid. Each officer always possesses two of these qualities. Those who are clever and industrious I appoint to the General Staff. Use can under certain circumstances be made of those who are stupid and lazy. The man who is clever and lazy qualifies for the highest leadership posts. He has the requisite and the mental clarity for difficult decisions. But whoever is stupid and industrious must be got rid of, for he is too dangerous.

This article is more about software, but interesting nonetheless.



Yes, they'd like Ukraine to be part of Russia, but AFAIK they are not making demands of such or claiming it actually is part of Russia.

They are aware that they signed an agreement to respect Ukrainian sovereignty. I'm not aware that they are claiming otherwise. They have claimed that Russians in Ukraine were mistreated, etc. and that they have acted to right wrongs or that Ukraine has been taken over by Nazis. They want a puppet government in Ukraine that will do the Kremlin's bidding.
🤷‍♂️
Putin's claim from day 1 is that UA has a historical bond with mother Russia.
Why are you parroting Russian propaganda? LOL. Installing a puppet government that you control is not respecting Ukraine's sovereignty...

Look up Dmitry Medvedev's recent comments and ceasefire offer, and then get back to us.

I didn't say Russia respects Ukrainian sovereignty. I said they didn't deny it, after all they promised not to in the agreement that removed nukes from Ukrainian hands. Duh, a puppet govt isn't respect, who said they had respect?

Link Medvedev's comments or STFU.

Parroting Russian propaganda and reacting like a child when called out on it. You clearly stated twice in one post that you didn't think Russia was claiming dominion over Ukraine. Not sure there's any other way to interpret that, but you do you.

No, I don't think you're actually pro-Putin, but your comments are just fucking weird.

For those that missed it, here was Medvedev's proposal:

Its so bad that a Russian publication posted an article last week warning that excessive potato consumption can lead to health issues....

I never said those assertions that Russia made were not propaganda. They certainly were. I didn't say anything about what Russia was claiming other than their assertions that Russians were mistreated and that Ukraine was run by Nazis. As far as veracity, hey, it's propaganda. Honestly, I think everything coming out of Moscow, Putin's mouth, his media is propaganda. Look at my posts here.

For God's sake, stop putting words in my mouth, mofo. And fuck your gaslighting attitude.

your comments are just fucking weird.
Oh, and yours are what? Normal?

Russia wants a puppet government in Kiev. That sounds weird to you? It's not weird. It's fact. Sheesh.

One of the comments in your Redditt link:

I declare as a Russian - do not take Medvedev seriously, he does not decide anything at all, but only dreams over a bottle of some alcohol

You want me to take Medvedev's bullshit seriously? Pfft.

and reacting like a child

Oh, and you are manly? Oh yeah, right.

Who's getting weird here? I am NOT parroting Russian propaganda. I explained in plain words what Russia was putting forth as justifications for their actions since before the Feb. 22, 2022 invasion. I never implied that they were justification for Russian aggression.
