Several in the thread claimed it was an insignificant factor.<br \/>\nThen we found out that the order books for NLAW, 777, CV90 and other platforms overflowed within a few months after they proved competent in combat.<br \/>\nHow much positive PR do you think the video below is, far beyond anything the manufacturer could spin themselves with shooting range footage is my guess.

But the West is slowly waking up to the fact that their pro-p\u2026a left is also glowing anti-sem\u2026.ers and I think we see some sobering up.<\/p>\n<p>Notable is that the protests are already starting to be against the government and \u201cthe elite\u201d and we guessed that as soon as they started \u2013 classic Russian tactic.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/noclador\/status\/1720942352506802687?s=46&amp;t=07jln9KOHPYa2Fl0uvX0kg\" rel=\"nofollow ugc\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/noclador\/status\/1720942352506802687?s=46&amp;t=07jln9KOHPYa2Fl0uvX0kg<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The decade\u2019s best influence operation came from I..el and the leaflets with the kidnapped children that are always torn down \u2013 hats off.

I have also often written because of the above that the West is playing a very high-stakes game here and IF Ukraine crashes then the West sits with the whole mess on its lap and has to consider whether our time\u2019s Chamberlain moment was the right path to take.<\/p>\n<p>It is my conviction that Ukraine will hold together but it is a risk the West takes to prolong this war \u2013 a risk the West should never have accepted if they had done their risk analysis so probably Russian influence is behind and pulling in the opposite direction.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/j_jhelin\/status\/1720834968446767458?s=46&amp;t=fV5mEfftFKnYx745Ibomaw\" rel=\"nofollow ugc\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/j_jhelin\/status\/1720834968446767458?s=46&amp;t=fV5mEfftFKnYx745Ibomaw<\/a><\/p>\n<p>It can never be said too often \u2013 the West must designate Russia as a \u201cstate sponsor of terrorism\u201d now that they have demonstrably actively supported H\u2026as so we can flush out the subversive activities in the West using the existing anti-terrorism legislation. Anything else is malpractice.<br \/>\nConsider that then Russia\u2019s entire black war chest (including companies) can be confiscated for subversive activities and sent to Ukraine \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<p>There are rumors (since I haven\u2019t heard it from Dengamle himself but from Budanov who has vented his frustration) that Dengamle is at the Dnieper and is tiring everyone out. Ukraine, true to form, has methodically built up their river crossing by taking all the islands in the river and then managing everything in between \u2014 ammunition, troops, wounded, maintenance, etc. All on a small scale so no FAB1500 can knock out too much.<\/p>\n<p>They are building up their bridgehead bit by bit and the rumor now circulating is that they have gone in with deep reconnaissance and started transferring armored vehicles \u2013 whether true or not we do not yet know.<br \/>\nDengamle considers this too little, too late in all categories and has on several occasions tried to command the engineer battalion with the bridge layers to lay a four-lane pontoon bridge straight across the river.<br \/>\nEach time Budanov has had to redirect his interest elsewhere with some made-up mission and a lot of strong liquor.<\/p>\n<p>The vision is apparently the crossing of the Great Belt \u2013 everything at once with drums, trumpets, banners, and pikemen in the lead. He has even trained a poor group to march with pikes that he bought on Amazon from the USA.<br \/>\nRight now Budanov has almost had to drop everything else to keep an eye on Dengamle so he doesn\u2019t completely crash the Dnipro campaign, but he seems to have developed good skill in that after 1.5 years of damage control.<\/p>\n<p>On the subject of things going well, here is an MTLB with a BMP-1 turret, weld together the worst you have and it gets even worse.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/thedeaddistrict\/status\/1720650121640050777?s=46&amp;t=NpuJgv3wVCKeIl7okzgD7A\" rel=\"nofollow ugc\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/thedeaddistrict\/status\/1720650121640050777?s=46&amp;t=NpuJgv3wVCKeIl7okzgD7A<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Then I refuse to let go of the idea that UA would be as bad as many claim, here is another edited video of armored I\u2026a vehicles being knocked out.

Then after 2014 training in Ukraine really got underway.<\/p>\n<p>A reflection here regarding the 128th mountain brigade\u2019s award ceremony that RU hit with a missile right in the middle (or was it artillery?). That signals to me that RU can if they want to, right? An award ceremony an hour and 20 km behind the front lines and a direct hit.<br \/>\nAll these thousands of missiles against civilian buildings should reasonably then be part of their terror strategy?<br \/>\nThere is no shortage of war crimes but it is notable that this is highly deliberate action for something the pro-Russian side ALWAYS claims as a defense A1 is that all civilian targets hit were mistakes.<\/p>\n<p>Positive-Positive then, the bridgehead near the Dnieper is expanding strongly and the fact that RU has not managed to push back company-sized crossings speaks volumes to me. If it turns out that armored vehicles have crossed over, it is very exciting but remains to be seen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"import-comment import-comment-level-1\">\n<h3>11:29 \u2013 Johan No.1<\/h3>\n<p>That detail is often missed, many of those in the demonstrations in the West are not welcome \u2013 there have been P\u2026ers who wrote under pictures with \u201cqueers for P\u2026a\u201d that they do not want their support, for example.<\/p>\n<p>To me it is very clear that it is a group that associates with this support because of the broader ideology and affiliation but they don\u2019t have the full picture for themselves, or that some details are not given priority.<\/p>\n<p>For P\u2026a LGBTQ people who have fled, it must be absolutely terrible to see the rainbow flag in these demonstrations and one might still think that the LGBTQ movement\u2019s first and most important task would be to support LGBTQB people in these countries, not the state that actively oppresses them or throws them from high buildings?<\/p>\n<p>To me the logic doesn\u2019t quite add up 100% here.<\/p>\n<p>I am also absolutely shocked at how highly educated people with good jobs in the West with roots in MENA completely lose it as soon as this comes up and that there are placards with \u201cgas all the j..s\u201d in the demonstrations but right now a lot is upside down and not as it should be.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"import-comment import-comment-level-1\">\n<h3>11:36 \u2013 Johan No.1<\/h3>\n<p>What does the thread think, maybe the Russians will refrain from attacks on Ukraine\u2019s power infrastructure this winter for fear of retaliation?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"import-comment import-comment-level-1\">\n<h3>11:44 \u2013 MatsExtrude<\/h3>\n<p>Thanks, insightful reading as usual!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"import-comment import-comment-level-2\">\n<h4>11:45 \u2013 Johan No.1<\/h4>\n<p>Thanks for a brilliant obituary this morning \ud83d\udc4d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"import-comment import-comment-level-2\">\n<h4>11:48 \u2013 MatsExtrude<\/h4>\n<p>There is a lot that is incomprehensible regarding the p*lestinian demonstrations in the West.
