Russia invades Ukraine - 7 - from 10 April 2025

As reported:

But the Ukrainians are nothing if not resilient. They made it through the 22/23 and 23/24 winters, which were very tough due to russia repeatedly crippling their power grid. Odds are, they can survive this next one as well. But it doesn’t look good, especially if the next one turns out to be a deep, long, extreme winter.

What I saw was referring to Bloomberg and the Israeli times and Indian papers of all places.

Don’t really know how they lean on this war so not sure if to be believed.

It was pretty nice when we could trust most news sources.

There’s Russian bastardry in everything they do.

Not my preferred option. But, ya do what ya gotta do.

‘Crucial’ for Europe to fund more US weapons for Kyiv: Ukraine envoy

“Ukraine’s ambassador to NATO on Wednesday urged European allies to step up purchases of US weapons for Kyiv, as only Washington can supply key capabilities required to counter Russia’s assaults.

“European NATO member states are not able to substitute either by types or by volume or speed of delivery,” ambassador Alyona Getmanchuk told AFP.”…

Yes, it’s gonna be a
Cold, lonely winter
But I’ll fill the emptiness
I’ll send you battle teams
Every day in a lather
Sealed with a kill

Well, dip me in honey and feed me to the lesbians. Who would believe this statement?

I want the most honourable Mr. Putin to know that I can be bought for sabotage. Yes, for a hefty price, I am willing to blow off a few penny-bangers inside of Ikon Park at a fark Carlton training day. Fark Carlton.

I can send ‘em the intel on Ikon Park. Fark Carlton.

I see this was caused by debris… By jingo, that Ukraine sure packs a good punch in their debris.

…”Volgograd region Governor Andrei Bocharov said air defense systems repelled the drones, adding that debris from downed aircraft ignited fires at multiple energy facilities, including a centralized heating plant in the Kotovsky district.”…

Really? DisPutin exaggerating? I didn’t think the little Russian pr!ck stopped his outright lying long enough to start farken exaggerating.

Let the games begin.

The war of geopolitics. Perhaps, a greater war within the war.

Yes, the only problem is the Orange Nong mixes up his ambitions with his capabilities.

I rate the deployment of these new rocket powered drones as a significant development for UA by taking the war ever greater distances into RU.

DisPutin drunk on self aggrandisement?

Essendon have talked about a tougher response for, ohh, about twenty years now… See if ya can do better. DO better, less talk.

This war has got more (red) lines than an Essendon Hawthorn match.

Okay. Last I heard, Ukraine would nominate the Orange Nong for achieving peace. Now, they’ll nominate him for supplying arms.

See, these are the types of windows of opportunity that open up to you when you can be bought… I’m thinking a Nobel Peace Prize would look good up on my mantelpiece.

It’s pretty fair leverage in the shaping process. You know, just casually mention that you’ve got a nuc that’ll flatten all of farken Manchester.

Some say DisPutin has his back to the wall, others don’t. I’d like to think his balls are in a vice, but I’m wondering if the vice is cheap $hit made in farken China.

It is obvious that RU has already begun a war with NATO, even though NATO continues to deny this reality. Even though there has been no invasion of NATO territory, the conflict is real and is only going to escalate from here, unless NATO stops talking about taking action, and actually does something about it.

One of the problems facing NATO is the lack of unity brought on by having a diversity of national interests. No doubt RU is relying on this disunity and is an integral part of their plans to wage war by degrees. They will have calculated and estimated the amount of lack of NATO response in answer to their increased incursions.

This divide and conquer strategy is nothing new, Hitler relied heavily upon it, he was defeated when the allies united.
