I think you're wrong.
Looking at the tactics used in the past year, I believe the entity would rather sweep and ethnically cleanse all civilians out of areas they wish to control. They have no desire to compound their current demographic issues. Israel would demolish every building and murder or deport every person in their new lebensraum.
The one that hit a bunker penetrated easily and definitely obliterated the planes inside. I'd say maximum there's room for 3 planes at a push in that hanger.
There are several near hits on other bunkers, so clearly at least maybe 10 or 20 percent of the missile salvo was dedicated to the F-35s.
The F-35s are stored in climate controlled concrete bunker exclusively in order to preserve their coatings. You need a direct hit with something fast and heavy, or you aren't getting through. Looks like the F-15s are also stored in hardened shelters.
This conduct reaffirms the respect for the law that has prevailed in the actions of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela in the international community.
This fake government in exile and their westoid backers have no regard for law or democracy.
The Venezuelan government really isn't afraid of these Guaidó plays. That or they are stupid.
Ukraine and their backers aren't capable of agreeing to this, they're just too deep in the fantasy. The only reason I can think of for making this declaration again, which is really just a call for Ukraine to recognize the current reality of the situation, is for posterity.
A last off ramp before the Russians commit more and then demand more for resolution. It could only be a matter of time before Russia insists on Kharkiv oblast as a response to the terror bombing of civilians in Belgorod.
James O'Brien who spent years shouting down any pro-palestinian viewpoints on his shows?
The number of people that can see through the imperial media narratives is disturbingly low.
Media outlets repeat just the narratives they are given by the imperial apparatus, laundering them with the veneer of civil consensus. Without that media laundering to make it palatable to the target audience, the message becomes very mask-off and uncomfortably raw to most viewers, such as the IDF clearly stating they're aiming for genocide.
Makes me wonder what needs to be done.
You don't get points for trying to be unrealistically civil with apartheid occupiers who think you're subhuman. The ones who literally cannot stand to be in your filthy presence without you being legally subject to their racial hierarchy will fuck off back to a country that coddles poor oppressed loser racists like some Rhodesian's did.
The rest will stay and become a real part of the land, rather than a vicious, poisonous tumour growing over and consuming it.
Born too soon to die in the climate wars,
I admire your optimism.
I wonder if Niger's pivot made it clear that Prigozhin had outlived his usefulness.
Took a swing and the king and missed. I'm surprised he lived as long as he did.
I think the Lancets themselves are slightly too crude. They're so light (12 to 20kg depending on the type of warhead) and have so much lifting surface that even moderate winds lower their accuracy too much. Even in a lot of the videos the Russians post online, they're actually in effect missing their targets in the final moments due to wind drift or insufficient yaw control. Often in the video's it's enough to look like a hit for propaganda purposes without actually damaging the target.
The concept they have is golden. Not everything needs to be hyper advanced, sometimes you just need a kamikaze lawnmover that's good enough to get the job done. The problem with the Lancet is it isn't always quite good enough to reliably get the job done in all weather conditions. Drifting a meter either side of a truck can fail to destroy it. Drifting a meter either side of a trench can turn a mass casualty incident into a nuisance. A breezey day is more effective than the entire remaining Ukrainian air-defense arsenal.
The Russians are constantly advancing and iterating their designs. The new glide bomb kits that they've been strapping onto existing FAB-500M62 bombs seem very effective and very accurate. Half a ton of glide bomb doesn't care about wind drift.
Saw the same, felt the same.
Questioning my inaction.
