Even if it turns out they are only ‘trolling’ thus is a **** stupid thing to do.

Though there is also the problem of the ‘no true Scotsman’ fallacy. Whereby anytime a Ukrainian is seen doing something in an unfavourable light it is immediately dismissed as not an actually a Ukrainian in order to maintain the propaganda narrative.

I got back yesterday so can confirm Kyiv has been successfully hit in the last few weeks, but less and less is getting through the growing AD network. Managed to get photos of two successful interceptions on Thursday about 30-40kms west of Kyiv.

Good to hear you're back safe mate! I'm sure Ukraine is thankful for the work you've been doing.

What's your general take on the next few weeks? Though there are still some fairly decent sources around I'm finding it increasingly hard to get a clear picture other than the usual human wave bs from Russia.

In 2-3 days temperatures of +12 are due to arrive in Eastern Ukraine, making offensive actions limited to roads for the foreseeable future due to snow melting and creating mud everywhere. It'll make defending against Russian assaults easier than now.

Another blow to the Russian economy. 

Serbia has decided to buy fighters from France.  They will buy 12 new fighters and 12 reconditioned ones. 

That's not a particularly massive blow in itself. 

The Serbian Airforce is heavily dependent upon MIGs. Serbia says it cannot buy more Russian planes because Russia cannot supply the spare parts to keep their existing fleet of MIGs airborne. 

That's a sure sign that sanctions are biting.

What’s this all about? 

He's just been making a long speech. Apparently not only did the west start the war by not invading anyone, but it's now about getting rid of all the LGBT people.

He's giving a speech.  

To summarise - Russia never wanted war.  Its all the fault of the West.  

He's presently blaming the LGBT community for the "degradation and degeneration of Russian Children". 

On a more amusing note, soldiers will be guaranteed 14 days annual leave.   Presumably to pop home and save their children from those terrible gays. 🤣

But at the same time, everyone should be able to live their lives the way they want, without interference. 
The faces of those in the audience suggest nobody is buying any of this tosh but they have to applaud at every turn in case they get too close to any 7th floor windows.

Guy is not pulling any punches.

So Nazis AND LGBT. Someone should tell him that these two groups are not best pals.

Biden going to give a counter speech. Hope he keeps it really simple and just highlights just how little sense Putin's ideologies make. Like zero sense.

Biden shortly doing a speech in Poland. That’s great planning, I assume he’s going to shine a big light l on the ridiculousness of Putin’s claims.

Hopefully he speaks better than he did in Kyiv.
