Frosted Flake posted:Russia likely gave them a deadline confidentially, the more I think about it, or the wargames and military posture clearly signalled one. i do wonder if a less supportive american/european posture might have led ukraine to write off the contested regions without a war diplomatically we spent a lot of time talking about all the support we were sending but when push came to shove we always knew we wouldn't have any skin in the game i think the funniest (to the extent possible) way this can all play out is if somehow russia fucks up this invasion or the blowback actually causes massive problems for putin but i assume ukraine's going to get rolled and america will just look stupid for egging them on it all sucks

Ardennes posted:Zelensky’s big issue is that he was elected as a moderate, and once he couldn’t follow through on Minsk 2, his popularity became to erode. If anything the more he pushed toward the nationalist side, the more his popularity suffered because a healthy chunk of his supporters were Russian speaking. Ukrainian neutrality really can’t last because there is too much internal/external pressure to end it even though most of the population would probably prefer it. are there literally any popular politicians in ukraine at all right now im starting to wonder whether this low energy resistance is at least in part because people cant be bothered to think that their dumpster fire government is worth dying for

It's a good combination of colors on a heraldic level, but is it literally supposed to represent the sky over a golden field of steppe wheat? Because that's pretty lmao basic

Innocuous posted:but i assume ukraine's going to get rolled and america will just look stupid for egging them on i think this bizarre well actually we cant give the ukrainians weapons talking point from the biden administration out of nowhere is because they want to rewrite history and make it look like were just disinterested bystanders and not that we were actively giving zelensky terrible advice given how the biden administration has long since given up trying to actually improve the country and just started to say theyve improved the country i can see why they would think that would work completely forgetting that the press of other countries arent going to go along with that since this time our bumblefuckery has actively made the situation worse for them too

PoontifexMacksimus posted:So what's the status of front? Doesn't seem like Russia will roll over the country in 48 hours anymore Turns out last night was a ton of rumor mill stuff + disinfo campaigns. The Russians are doing well in the south but advance seems fairly slow elsewhere. https://twitter.com/666_mancer NSFW twitter but this one has been posting a bunch of combat/post-combat pics and videos and there's a lot more dead russians and destroyed/abandoned russian vehicles than i'd expect. That white striping is really useful for telling the two sides apart.

PawParole posted:Donbass is like Harry Potter, who was abused by the Dursleys (Ukraine) for many years. And finally, he received a letter from Hogwarts (Russia), in which Dumbledore (Putin) recognizes him as a wizard (Russian) and sends Hagrid (the Russian army) after him. Russia is like my OC, one day the bullies pushed him too far and he showed them his Dark Side...

Torpor posted:https://mobile.twitter.com/JackDetsch/status/1496953514387464196 i mean if you're looking for precedent in this area we did drop a missile on the head of iran's republican guard as payback for state sponsored insurgency so the price of a bunch of russians getting blown up by american IEDs is probably going to be some fairly harmful asymmetric poo poo, cyberwarfare against infrastructure or worse

the harry potter analogy is better than it sounds since harry potter was also fighting voldemort he just did it really incompetently because nobody could be bothered to help him come up with an actual plan they just said welp prophecy says its either you or him well figure something out eventually

The idea that Biden is suddenly backing out of feeding a Ukrainian insurgency is hilarious to me because I thought that was the plan. Bait Russia into a quagmire that drains their military and economic strength for years to come and thus helps prop up US hegemony for a while longer. Instead, the US and NATO now look like total loving morons that actually believed history was still ended.

Are there more teeth to the sanctions that I'm missing? I really thought the US would at least try harder on the sanctions. That's like the only thing the US has zeal for. The fact that they are even hedging on supplying arms is weird.
