I spent a lot of time working in Israel 2017-2019. I lived in Netanya for about 70% of 2018. Netanya is a very Russian/Eastern European town. Met a lot of good people there, especially at the gym I became a member of. They made me feel like family. Once while walking out, I met another guy walking in wearing a "Banda CrossFit Box" shirt. Blew my mind as that's my last name. Turns out that gym is in Kyiv!

Makes sense that Israel would be trying to broker a peace treaty to me.

Don't think you understand how fleet groups operate. Aircraft carrier maybe the number one reason for US global dominance.
In 1929 Britain's dreadnoughts was the number one reason for its global dominance. Things change. The Space Force will be by far the most important branch of the US military by 2040. If not sooner.
I disagree. Think bigger. Cyber dominance will be most important. There is nothing digital that will ever be TOTALLY secure. With the right cyber capabilities/tools, any kinetic weapon could be killed or redirected.

Why does that channel constantly loop the audio of gunfire into all of their videos? You hear the kid cry "Papa" over and over again in their videos.

Seems to corroborate some of the missile reporting from the past few days having to dig into older stockpiles.

Would he not need to visit Zelinsky. I fear he is carrying a sweet heart deal message to Germany.



Prime Minister Bennett has to try to end the war in Ukraine and worry about the Russian position in Syria and the Middle East at the same time. hopefully he can help Putin climb down by coming up with some face saving measure to stop the war.

There are hundreds of thousands of Russians and hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians living in Israel who are citizens of both countries now.

Israel is also one of the few democracies with good relations with both Ukraine and Russia,

and has not provided weapons to either side.

They are in a good position to serve as an "honest broker" trusted by both sides. hopefully Prime Minister Bennett can make some progress here. Small world as I lived in Netanya in the summer of 2017.

I'm skeptical.

Quote:
The officers report to the General Staff of the Belarusian Armed Forces that if they cross the border, the officers' lives will be in great danger because the soldiers will raise arms against them. Mass surrender of Belarusian soldiers is also expected.

A number of small units of the Belarusian army already crossed the border with Ukraine a few days ago, but were turned back because the soldiers refused to take part in combat operations.

If the stories are true that Luckashenko is an installed puppet of Putin's and not legitimately elected? Maybe.

Does Ukraine have a good counter with their air force and surface to air capabilities? I imagine the bombers will be higher altitude and thus out of range of some of the weapons we've seen used so far.

Not if they were recently promoted officers that were bootlickers to Luckashenko.

Ted Cruz dropped a screen grab from the Skype call with Zelensky too. Notice the message in the right. For those that aren't familiar with ZOOM interface, that's the text that Ted sent to Zelensky during the call

I read Zelensky specifically asked everyone not to share any screenshots. So that shouldn't have been released.

Why would Cruz have released it? He must have known it would go around the world via social media in a matter of seconds.

Putin isn't going to agree to a "peace" deal that isn't a default win for Russia that leaves Ukraine as a sitting duck for the future.

Ukes aren't going to cede additional territory to Russia, agree to demilitarization, agree to neutrality. Nor should they. And if the west sells them out to Russia then they're no better than that commie bass turd.

I saw that floating around too, but has it been confirmed? Not like anything from that screen grab gives away his location. I'm sure it was intentional to show the Russians more weapons and planes are on the way and it won't stop until they do

1) Perhaps Zelensky didn't actually ask that (I bet he did though)

2) Ted got on late and missed instructions. Not likely either.

3) Ted is a politician and wants to show he's doing something, decided to hell with it. I think this is likely.

Usually I'm a fan of his but this is pretty boneheaded. We'll see how the story develops. Hope Zelenskys location stays secret.

Russia REALLY doesn't want actual media coverage of Ukraine continuing to get out. Sky News leans right as well, IIRC.

Ukraine had a mole???

During the arrest, the SBU shot dead a member of the Ukrainian negotiating delegation in Homel, Denis Kireev. He was suspected of treason.

Source : High-ranking interlocutors in the power bloc and political circles

Direct speech : "He is already dead."

Details : According to interlocutors in political circles, the Security Service had clear evidence of Kireev's treason, including telephone conversations.
Plot twist. I guess he was double agent.

Zelensky must have moved to a new location. All week he'd been broadcasting statements and giving interviews from his hide out so seems odd to not want screenshots shared now
