Can I get a H3LL Yeah!

Ballsiest MFr on the planet.



Told putin EXACTLY what I would.

To his face.


Get the F out of Ukraine.

ALL of Ukraine.



Zelinsky For The Win!

The wingnut in charge of Chechnya criticized Russia for not being more aggressive (crueler) to Ukrainians. He was complaining about the slowdown for russian forces. Russia is already committing war crimes. The wingnut from Chechnya and his forces, in my opinion, just told russia to hold their beer.

Here is a weapon that Putin uses to “save” Ukraine. It fell down in Kharkiv today.

The wingnut in charge doesn't realize that putin IS pushing as hard as possible.

Russians keep running into Mr. Javelin and his merry band of Stingers.

Putin is in trouble if he asked/told Belarus to invade Ukraine.

In February 2014, Belorusskaya Voyennaya Gazeta, the official publication of the Ministry of Defense revealed that the Belarusian Armed Forces contains about 59,500 personnel, including 46,000 soldiers and 13,000 civilians

there's a difference between bravery and utter stupidity.

when held at gun point, you don't make demands, you do what you're told to do. and so far russia is just toying with ukraine, trying to avoid civilian casualties. when putin grows tired, they'll just bomb the sh.t out of ukraine and then you'll see how much of a 'chance' it has in fight against russia.

but at that point ukrainian politicians will be either en route to tropical islands or just hiding in their bunkers. they won't be paying for that BS, no matter what they say or do right now.

In another sign of the Russian military and problems they have...

When Russia announced (before the invasion of Ukraine) they were sending units home, the west didnt believe them. Apparently CNN was in the area when the "pull back" was occurring. There people noticed the vehicles going back to Russia were non functional. That should have been clue #1 to Putin that he should not go through with his invasion.

he failed to listen.

One other question -
If Ukraine could slow/stop an invasion by Russia, to the point Russia had to send in more Russian troops, about 12k soldiers from Chechnya and the entire army / airforce of Belarus, how does he plan on stopping the west in a war he is creating?

Putin “saves” Ukraine and his bomb torn off the leg of a woman in my Kharkiv today.

This is it. These are the Ukrainian civilians WITHOUT the weapons in arms. I don't know what to say anymore...

Apparently she passed away.

So much of a chance that Russia had to send in more russian forces, they had to send in 12k soldiers from the wingnut in Chechnya and had to send in the entire Belarus military.

I am still putting my bet on Ukraine.

Normally I'd whole heartedly agree.

Six days ago I'd agree.

Shout it from rooftops agree.

In fact I can't FKing believe that I AM disagreeing.



This guy may actually be the real deal.

Nobody is more surprised than me.



NEVER bet against the real deal.

I don’t think we want to know the answer. We may not be alive to talk about it.
