Wow, they're not kidding when they say the tunnels under Azovstal are massive.



Russia had no qualms gassing hostages to save face. I wonder if they have enough fentanyl for this job or if they'll have to use weapons they aren't supposed to have.

This is impressive. I wish there was a way to at least resupply ammo/food etc. to them. If an air drop or possibly a middle of the night SOF beach landing with some RHIBs like the Seals use…anything to give them a chance to keep fighting.

We don't have enough weapons to defend against Russia. We have enough to obliterate them, conventionally at least.


You think we're short of nukes?


Texas alone had enough to wipe Russia in a conventional war

That is what I thought when I read that. We are about to hear about a whole new round of dead generals and colonels.

Also, how do they just "find" that much available after this much time? Something doesn't seem right about that.

I think yes and no. There are a few dedicated miners of info for us here. I was a lot more active in the beginning but I am also a graduating senior this semester and have been slowly dying with final projects, capstone, never ending labs/lab reports and now finals studying around the corner. In addition to everything pertaining to an upcoming move with uprooting my life of the past decade.

So I am like most here I think and just have to read but not contribute as much.

But also yes overall for others. My peers have forgotten about this weeks ago. It lasted a bit longer than the Fall of Afghanistan but not by much. America has the attention span of a gnat.

If nukes come in to play, there are no winners and there are no losers. It's a reset button.

No, it means they are throwing everything at this stupid freaking decision and they are a few weeks from a glorious failure.

FORTE10 with a distinct interest in the Mediterranean and Aegean today. Russian navy has been shadowing NATO carrier groups there for a bit so I assume that's the reason.

Granted I am not trained military; however, isn't it normal that fighting subsides during the night? Our day is their night, so, it seems normal that posts would subside as well. Sorry if I am misunderstanding your post.


What I mean to say is that people are losing interest in this conflict. This thread used to be at the top of the page every time. Now I wouldn't be surprised to find it on the second page if it weren't for Rossticus late night updates
I will say, I read this thread everyday, a few times during the day, and it's never come close to being on the 2nd page.

I don't think it's that people have gotten used to he fact that people are dying everyday. I think it's simply people have things to do impact them directly and those things naturally take more time and focus.

As far as the everyday media, they've moved on because there hasn't been significant changes. Plus, with everything that is going on here in the US as far as the economy, it's not really a surprise focus has shifted.

Also, for the average person, there is not much they can do to help other than send resources to groups that will get them to Ukraine.

I think people still care quite a bit, but when you combine no real way of providing tangible, productive assistance, your country edging toward recession, and the situations that impact a person and their family directly, it's not a surprise to me you don't hear it talked about regularly in the States.
