10 years? since 90s more like

yeah that’s because that’s not what happened, there were multiple targets, not just one. that signal chat directly mentions “mutliple targets”, it could be 5 it could be 15. if goldberg stayed in this chat maybe we’d know how many exactly

weapons mix suggests that at least some of these were chosen to limit collateral damage (two F18 sorties, Tomahawks launched - these could be used against hardened targets, like bunkers or caves, and targeting shifted from weapons to leadership, but probably not completely - but also drones, and drones can’t carry heavy weapons like F18 can)

i’ll have you know that social contract that formed in russia after 90s looks just like that: citizens fuck off from politics in return for some prosperity. every time when russian state expected that that won’t last due to things like 2008 crisis or covid or what have you, they started a war as a distraction and to rally around the flag some nationalists. now they’re on 4th attempt, this one was due to post-covid recession. difference is, this time they were high on their own supply of propaganda and planned accordingly. they also can’t back down because they see it as a weakness, and that would mean a coup

I know that Abe was PM since always, but he’s dead for almost three years now

remember, the entire time until bombs dropped Goldblum wasn’t sure that if it was an elaborate bit

at least it’s not telegram

“i just hate bailing out europe again”

Dense motherfucker doesn’t know where his bread is buttered. Status of dollar as global reserve currency hinges on free maritime trade, on top of sheer amount of oil that passes through that place and american sensitivity to energy prices

Not to mention that they’re cause of greater share of instability in the region

it wasn’t worth it with covid and all it did was a magnet for spurious, ill-understood effects. it isn’t worth it even if you throw a chatbot at it, especially considering how dogshit these things are at anything factual https://cen.acs.org/pharmaceuticals/drug-discovery/Is-drug-repurposing-worth-the-effort/99/i3 https://www.science.org/content/blog-post/drug-repurposing-how-often-does-it-work

technically it was also not a “violation of ceasefire” because putin said any ceasefire can only happen only after all western military aid and intelligence sharing are stopped. all, not just american. clown shit

they specifically did target energy infrastructure so yes, they did https://kyivindependent.com/zelensky-trump-to-hold-a-conversation-on-march-19/

Grozev himself writes that there were a couple other people involved, but no matter if you divide between 3 or 7, it’s still a lot

were there people advocating for privatizing DB?

LET’S FUCKING GOOO

heavy insistence on this mechanism was how smallest (liberatian-ish) party of last coalition iirc limited defense spending including military aid to Ukraine. in last elections they fell under electoral threshold and have no seats in bundestag at all, rip bozo, you won’t be missed

that site sits on .gov.ua, this is for various official things for government of Ukraine

like with any other country that has such presence

not only money runs out, it’s also some categories of military equipment. i mean, it’s not like russia will run out of tanks entirely, because they still have ongoing production, but most of what goes to front are increasingly old rustboxes reanimated in tank factories - because it’s faster than building new one, but that happens too.

according to perun, they’ll start running out of tanks, ifvs, apcs, things of this type somewhere in 2025 - that is, storages will be emptied and any replacements would have to be new, which means that replacements will come something like 5x slower. it’s a bit harder to say with artillery, because barrels have limited number of shots and it is known that barrels can be taken from towed guns to put them in self-propelled guns. but it’s also bad, even if it means there’s another year there

what impact would it have on division of seats for other parties?

is there a possibility that FDP falls under electoral threshold this time?
