The Struggle For Ukraine

[Jumper1]

1. I would like to see some verifiable evidence of this.
2. I understand that Russia (initially) using men from outside the major Russian cities so that reports of deaths do not spread in large cities.
3. However, Russia is killing large numbers of ethnic Russians  all over Ukraine, but particularly in Donbass; so canceling is of ethnic Russians in Donbass against non-ethnic Russians from Russia.

Cant verify anything.that dramatic.

Several accounts 9f chechens used as backing troops to shoot retreating Russians though.

Also one province in Siberia has a small.population.
Those yound men (by their words) were promised flats if they signed a contract.
About 600 have bern killed.

The region they are from.only has
 about 6500 people .
Ouch.

a big part of TRIZ is to identify sources of contradiction, solutions are about solving contradictions


I learned a LOT about the evolution of the Soviet Philosophy of problem solving

1. linear algebra for resource optimization
2. tsetlin automata for optimization through feedback from reward/penalty
2. TRIZ Theory of Problem solving

Soviets/Russians are on another planet compared to the west, far more advanced
it's why Pootin's gambit with Trump worked so damn well
it was a TRIZ play

I suppose that everyone remember what I wrote if you go to Russia and some drug is found on you:

If you’re going to vape hash oil, delta 8, etc in Russia and you want to bring your stash with you
you DO NOT want to get a “510 cartridge” vape pen rig,
no, your vape cartridges show up on x-ray and are easy to identify

what you want to do is get a reservoir based vape unit like an iCub 2, and take the mouth piece off
and keep your distillate in a little cosmetic jar and put a couple drops of lemon oil in it and place the jar in separate luggage with other cosmetic items
Russians won’t even bother to look at it!

I’ve smuggled all kinds of stuff into and out of Russia, I’m addicted to the adrenaline rush I get when I do this, and THEN I go vape, what an incredible feeling combining the two!!
good times!

CNN were interviewing a Ukrainian Military Commander in the Donbas today,and he said they're STILL awaiting the arrival of the western heavy Artillery.


The reporter showed film of reinforcements for the Donbas troops arriving by road,but nope no heavy Artillery to be seen.


Meanwhile the Azovstal plant in Mariupol is being pounded from the land.sea and air again today.


Hundreds of civilians still trapped in there..including thirty children...and contact with the plant was lost today.

Two months ago, our friends took 5 long days to get from Donbas to Poland by car.  I suspect it takes longer today, especially having to try and move big equipment in ways to keep them from getting targeted, among civilians on the same roads/trains.

The monitoring group of the Belarusian Hajun Project (http://t.me/Hajun_BY) collected information on all known missile launches from the territory of Belarus, which began at 6:20 on February 24, 2022.

[krimster2]

so now the grapevine says Pootin IS NOT going to declare full mobilization on Victory Day....
more of that "riddle wrapped inside an enigma" meme

if Pootin doesn't mobilize, then he's just gonna continue the war indefinitely like in Donbas, etc since 2014 and Syria...
no long march to Odesa, not yet
land bridge to Crimea + reopen Northern Crimea Canal + damaging economy of Ukraine and West = "Victory"
added bonus of purging non Russian minorities
and putting new "iron curtain" around Russia to keep Russians in, and keep west out
a much smaller win then Pootin hoped for, but still a win
economy will convert to rubles, seizing state and oligarch foreign assets, so what?

so this is a small short term victory, with the prospect of a continuing long term war
that may at some time in the future give the opportunity to incrementally seize more and more of Ukraine



this is a REAL sign in Russia!
this can only mean
That it is the dawning of the age of Prosveshchenie
age of Prosveshchenie
Prosvesh-chenie


or just some Dumb Ass from Donbas

Rumours are swirling in Moscow that former Generals and KGB officials are preparing to oust Putler to end the war in Ukraine,which is increasingly seen across Russia as a strategic mistake and an economic disaster.

[Chelseaboy]

Ukraine has successfully taken significant and strategic territory back in Kharkiv ,made gains in SW and NW Kherson and successfully intercepted the Orcs supplies on the western flank of the Izyum advance.


Valeriy Zaluzhny,Chief Of Ukraine's Armed Forces has now announced that Ukrainian Troops have now switched to launching counter offensives near Kharkiv and the Orc occupied city of Izyum.


We know what happened when they did that in the Kyiv region..let's hope the same result happens.

[Boethius]

I am skeptical of that.  How do they plan on explaining the ouster of an elected president?  Certainly there was fraud in the election, but no matter how you view it, Putin was elected by a majority of Russians.

[krimster2]

Victory Day Pogrom, er I mean Program

Parade of Ukrainian Prisoners
and fake Ukrainian Nazi banners thrown to the ground and trampled

followed by nearby  mysterious explosions and fires
Salo Ukrainia

after V-Den, Russians will have Stalinesque show trials of Ukrainian POWs in Russian courts
they will be accused of war crimes in Ukraine
Art Dept of Moscow State will create stylish Nazi flags and other kinds of "evidence", etc

another reeason to have the war, is to keep the chechens in Ukraine instead of up to mischief in Dagestan, etc

[Boethius]

Former MP Alexander Nevzorov.  Some of this is just an understanding of history.  Some is an understanding of how the Russian state works (or doesn't).

[krimster2]

Endless war, means the transformation of Russia back to a closed society like in Soviet period
possibly a class struggle against oligarch’s and the state seizing their assets like the West is also doing!
And a recreation of the soviet union, at least internally in Russia

it seems like they shoulda done this first, then “liberated Ukraine”
duh!

Bo, thanks for Nevzorov's video, that's about the funniest, most sarcastic video I've ever seen, I love it!
gozpedy!
and I was almost gonna give up and go work for Putin, until I saw the video
you saved me...

[Boethius]

I'm always here for your eternal soul.

[krimster2]

"'i'm always here for your eternal soul. "

I already knew that about you, this just confirms my perception!!!

Russia is afraid to fight Odesa!!!
Gozpedy!
because in order to “save the village”
they’d have to “destroy the village”
and destroying such an historic “Russian/Soviet” iconic city as Odesa
would be oichen plohoi!

This would create one of “them contradictions”
where the government’s words and actions don’t match
and them contradictions would become apparent to the public

Odesa would be leveled, because resistance from Krimster’s Ancestral Rodina
would be 100X the Warsaw uprising
if they start doing to southern Ukraine what they did to Bucha, well fook it
I’ll work 12 hour shifts anywhere they can use me in Odesa putting IEDs together
and if I get killed there, well my name will join with the others, and one day my grandchildren will come there and read it

I know how to drive from southern Ukraine from Moldova, I drove it once with my father-in-law round-trip
and could do it again by myself as long as I had a clear path
full tank of gas at the border, and petal to the metal baby!
no stops, pee in the bottle, just one long,fast drive!


what's the point of dying of old age
compared to fighting for Odesa
it's like what Tolstoy said about the siege of Sevastopol

It is impossible that at the thought that you are in Sevastopol, a feeling of some kind of courage, pride does not penetrate into your soul, and that the blood does not begin to circulate faster in your veins ...

i'm just talkin, my wife would never let me go
but damn....
it DOES make my blood "run quicker"

[Jumper1]

That's an amazing prediction from 21

[krimster2]

maybe the truth is not one way or its opposite
but somewhere in the middle

Solving Russian Military Manpower Problem

if new mobilisation is declared only in regions immediately bordering Ukraine, such as Bryansk, Kursk, Belgorod, Voronezh and Rostov, then cannon fodder flows don't have to pass through Moscow, thus reducing public exposure to the escalating cost of the war

I submit this as an example "of my work", willing to discus terms, I have my own literary Russian<--->English Interpreter
able to submit Russian or English wikipedia articles

will work for Russian nootropics
however, if you're trying to collect me through a "honeypot"
I am most attracted to very tall brunettes, with light colored eyes and skin and also good cheeckbones (you know the type!)

If I see a woman who resembles this description, I will walk up to her and say "privet", to get over that awkward initial meeting, by taking the initiave for making introductions
it's how I met my wife, almost 23 years ago!!
so, even though I got lucky, in Russia, you just never know when fortune will smile again in your direction
unless you contine to make introductions, by constantly networking while climbing the ladder in the direction you wanna go in
it could be money, government connections, or just access to a lotta sweet lookin single, horny women (usually divorced!)
cuz, whenever you find something that works, don't STOP doing it
amirite?

If there is no real mobilization and no martial law it means that Russian Federation cannot use conscripts to the front and their divisions on the front will receive very few reinforcements. 
Something to make very angry the officers and generals.

Film yesterday showed lots more Chechens boarding a transporter plane to go to the front.

[Chelseaboy]

There is reportedly another Orc Ship on fire in the Black Sea.


The Admiral Grigorovich ..a class Frigate ..is on fire near Zmiiny island .


Rescue operation ongoing with multiple aircraft and rescue vessels in the area.


No confirmation at this stage...with some reports saying it's happening,but others saying it isn't.

I found the same. Reports are a mixed bag. Russia obviously controls the
Black Sea and I don't know how anyone can confirm it.

Pat,
It seems plenty of conscripts amongst the KIA and pows...???

Many I think a contract signed for* them by their superiors

There are so many reports of captured who had never fired a live round before crossing the border.
Most by far from poor families un provincial areas.

Such is most wars

The story looks like this one (to be confirmed).   
The defense system on Snake Island started to be hit by Ukrainian TB2 drones.
Two fasts boats went to the Snake Island where a Russian garrison took place. 
Both boats were destroyed by Ukrainian TB2 drones.
Russian sent his more modern frigate of the Black Sea to protect the area.
She was hit by Neptune missile(s).
 
The garrison tries to buy some food from Amazon.
Their credit cards are denied due to the sanctions.
They have started a campaign on the Internet to gather some help.
If you are interested write me on PM
(NB: They are more interested in potatoes, bottles of water, macaroni, vodka, and fresh milk than money itself just to say).
