Prediction Thread: When Will Ukraine Conquer Russia

[Dauphin]

To be fair, their intel just said they were silos.

Funny you mention that, on the subject of Nazis, Meduza reported last year:

I dont want to arm these people or help them rule Ukraine.

[BeBMan]

Meduza revealed how Putin armed the Nazis.

It's good you aren't then

[Berzerker]

Biden is and he represents me

[BeBMan]

Here btw. 2 very interesting pics/lists:
Russian VIPs who fell out of windows or died under other suspicious circumstances:

Some seemed to have died with their children ---> tragic

I'm more curious about:

Bad food on a plane (it's usually bad, but that baaad?)

Shamanic ritual?

Note next to body "it wasn't Putin" (in 2 cases with a month in between) - sure

BTW, from Ukraine's experience from 2014-2021, my interpretation was that every nation that wanted to keep its sovereignty and had aggressive neighbors, needed to acquire nuclear weapons ASAP.

Possibly the wests support of Ukraine over the last 18 months might convince some nations that they can forgo nuclear weapons and just use alliances to keep themselves safe from a stronger neighbor.

I haven't said this nearly enough and it really should be the core of the debate and conversations about Russia invading, occupying and annexing any of Ukraine. Thanks Jon.

[Berzerker]

that will polarize the world, nukes have a unifying effect

[Geronimo]

Better polarized than nukes being proved to be the umbrella that lets a state get away with anything and have its way with any of it non nuclear neighbors

[N35t0r]

That's one of the strong points about NATO, and it's expansion.

If it wasn't for it, non-proliferation would be a much tougher item.

Interesting discussion of the grain deal stop.
Something like the russians have shot themself in the feet.

And in line with Serb ranting about the Ukrainians 'stealing' orthodox relics, Russia has now bombed the high-priority military target that is *checks notes* an orthodox cathedral in Odessa

It was probably hiding WMDs or something.

[Berzerker]

Biden says Russia lost the war in Ukraine

Conspiracy theory:

1.) Wagner mutiny was staged so Wagner could relocate to Belarus
2.) Putin creates deniability for any Wagner actions
3.) Belarus President says he is having hard time containing Wagner as they "Want to go West"
Now the conspiracy part
4.) Wagner attacks military equipment repair and storage facilities in Poland critical to Ukraine's war effort
5.) Putin and Lukashenko declare Wagner traitors acting contrary to "legal" orders of both governments
6.) Prigozhin says Wagner has done what gutless politicians were to weak to do.

Besides destroying Wagner forces on NATO territory, what would the West's response be?

[Berzerker]

prepare for the push south to kiev

[N35t0r]

[BeBMan]

Kiyv in three days.

[Berzerker]

or a southward push and swing eastward encircling NE Ukraine

Russia can now draft men up to 30 and call up reservists up to 55. In Russia, most of us poly members would be considered of prime military age.

With all of us being Civ veterans, I bet we would be officer material!

[Uncle Sparky]

I have won land wars in Asia.

And now, the Duma has passed a law allowing regional governors to set up their own private military contractors. Imagine each governor being allowed to maintain their own private army (of course, they would be funded with public money).
