Funny but a little more then a month ago you were warning us all that Russia had Nuclear weapons and we should be afraid of them, but now it's you who is saying it is a bluff when before it was me who is saying it's a bluff.

The difference is that I was talking about the West helping Ukraine defend the Donbas, and now when I say yes, if somebody is foolish enough to invade Russia they will probably use their tactical Nukes.

Can you see the difference?  :popcorn:

There is a difference.  The presence of nukes shouldn't encourage timidity in the face aggression but boldness.   Thanks for your comment.

Well written article.  It will be interesting to see if Doll still wants to return to her 'mother Russia' as it falls apart.  She has been enjoying democracy, free press, market economy in the good 'ol USA while she continues to badmouth the country she currently lives in.  It would be interesting to know how her American husband feels about leaving the USA for Russia.    :D

I happened to catch a glimpse of BBC tonight as saw a story about Ukraine retaking most of the Donetsk airport.  Some posts on Kiev Post suggests that it may be the case.  One of the links has a Life News reporter in the mess of it.  Gotta admit that guy has some balls.    :D

‎That's a bunch of truckloads of Cargo 200 as well as wounded Cargo 300!  :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping:

Russian‬ activist Elena Vasilieva: 382 Russian soldiers killed in ‪#Ukraine‬ in last 3 days

Respected Russian human rights activist Elena Vasilieva has announced that 382 Russian soldiers have been killed in Ukraine during the last three days.

"I came back from the war zone. It is impossible to call it an ATO zone - it is a real merciless war there," Vasilieva writes on her official website. "I'm already afraid to write these numbers. The Russian army has huge losses over the past three days. 382 people - selected Special Forces, marines, paratroopers. Up to 500 injured. More likely the number of wounded is much higher. But we have no access to the full information about the injured from the Russian side."

The activist said that, counting the most recent 382 deaths, the total loss on the Russian side is 6,242 killed.

It's impossible to verify Vasilieva's claim because the Russian government insists that no Russian soldiers are fighting in Ukraine -- only volunteers -- and the Ukrainian government also does not have reliable figures on the number of enemy casualties.

Vasilieva in early August said she created the group called “Cargo 200 from Ukraine to Russia” in social networks. Its name is a reference to dead bodies carried across the border. The name caught attention of tens of thousands of people, and the group started receiving information about regular army soldiers, officers and former military who volunteered to fight and were killed in eastern Ukraine.

Vasilieva became the source of information for hundreds of Russians women whose sons and husbands secretly went (or were sent) to war. Vasilieva is the one who tells them what military units of the Russian Federation took part in which fights, and what to do if a soldier has not been in communication for some weeks.

I find her numbers difficult to believe.  I don't believe over three hundred were killed over the weekend.

But I don't believe the Russian government, either. 

What I do believe is that the Ukrainian forces are becoming more and more resolved to the task before them.  I also believe that Putin is in an increasingly difficult place.  The longer this plays out, the more his hand is revealed and the more desperate he becomes.

Don't worry, they're not really over there in Ukraine to begin with, so now they're just figments of your imagination.  Ghosts.

See how that works?

 Every one of those dead volunteers is less Ukrainian defenders hurt or killed.
 Keep them in Muskovi and they'll be happier as will their mothers.

Again,

Ukraine claims that in the past three days, there were 3 servicemen killed and 66 wounded in the fighting.  Over that same period of time, the above posts claims 382 Russian/Separatist corpses.  Seems far fetched to me.  But, then, maybe the Cyborgs aren't killable.

 The local news is doing interviews with ATO soldiers, There's been heavy killing at the airport and Lugansk. 150 plus at the airport and about 200 in Lugansk while gaining 2 KMs

 That's a good start. :D


 But there has been some UA dead also. 20 is a rough number and 60 wounded.   :'(  Slava Heroyam

We wonder the same thing about you.  Your Russian soldiers in Ukraine can either lay down their weapons and leave peaceably, or leave in body bags.





And BTW I do feel sympathy for many of them who have been deliberately lied to by Huilo and his FSB/GRU operators in Ukraine.

 It's funny how I have tons of compassion for Ukrainian soldiers that are killing the invading terrorists and Muskovi soldiers. I have donated a bunch of cash and supplies already..

 I have no compassion for the invading terrorists.
