Prediction Thread: When Will Ukraine Conquer Russia

Surprised to see the BBC characterize the Ukrainian decision to invade the Kursk region as a "catastrophe". Who could have foreseen that when Ukraine first shocked us all with its bold and daring incursion?

Russia, who is constantly throwing a hissy fit every time the West gives Ukraine weapons to defend itself for being escalatory, just fired ICBMs at Kyiv.

Unconfirmed.

Doesn't make any military sense on any level to use an ICBM against any target as nearby as any part of Ukraine. If true I suppose it's a demonstration and a warning/bluff.

Or test that they work in anger.

No wonder you guys don't have a ****ing clue when you post misinformation and lies as if it's fact, or express surprise when the mainstream media is finally calling Kursk a catastrophe for Ukraine, when I predicted as such (on this very thread!) when they attacked.

Now they're pinned in place and being destroyed piecemeal, like I said they would be.

Actually, that's basically been happening for the majority of their occupation up until now...

PS an event that recently occurred in Saudi Arabia looks like China is potentially set to **** the US with its own currency.

Who needs a competing currency when you can **** the whole rotten edifice from within 👍

WRT Saudi Arabia.

summary? I hate sitting through videos for information

[Dinner]

Saudi Arabia is only doing one currency deal in a single commodity, in limited scale, many as a bribe to gain influence because they are looking for a protector. Details in video.

Not surprisingly Russia gets caught lying about intercepting Storm Shadow missiles which it never intercepted. All ten can be seen hitting their targets.

I like how MoMoMo predicted everything, esp. how Russia had to cry for help from North Korea, surely a sign of unlimited military might.

If Russia is doing so well, why did it just launch a conventional-armed, MIRVed ICBM at Dnipro? That's pretty expensive, and VERY short ranged for an ICBM. Did they run out of everything else? Were they intending to use a nuke but found they had no working ones?

They're clowns.

They're clowns.

The big rocket attack last Sunday (which cost them ~1 billion dollars in rockets) represented about three months of stockpiled production. It does seem they've run most of their stockpikes dry (and also on tanks and artillery, given the increasing proportions of kills of older tank chassis and lower-caliber artillery).

It's apparently a slightly new version of an 'ICBM' they had from back when IRBMs were banned, and only had barely enough range to qualify as an ICBM with the lightest of payloads to skirt around the ban.

And hey, Russia now has the honor to have been the first to use a MIRV warhead in anger.
