A brainless zombies, the Coriolis force and the last question for you

[PLATO]

I don't belive you did so without google.
Sorry, but I just don't!

Believe what you will. I do not lie. Not only are you ignorant but you are apparently rude as well.

[Serb]

Ok, if you say so.

[Dauphin]

Good for you!
Could you name a capital of Ethiopia or, hell, even Australia without looking at google?

Excuse me, but I doubt that!​

Rote memorisation of countries and capitals is i) common for kids and ii) completely valueless.

Animaniacs can demonstrate this.

[Dinner]

There is some value to it as I can still resight that stuff which I learned in elementary school. Hopefully, as the child gets older and matures they progress out of rote memorization though. I can be valuable at a young age.

And care to expalin to me, why Ukranians had dropped the water from their upper dams during the Kahovka incident?

I can tell you why - to make a hydro impact to destroy the dam and to make the consequeces of the flooding worse.

A f,king brainless, brainwashed idiots!

The upper dams were letting more water downstream because they were getting a lot more water, given that this part of the year is the one with highest river flows. All the other reservoirs upstream are also at their yearly maximums, except well managed (I posted links to satellite altitude measurements in the other thread). Russia should have also opened the floodgates to avoid the dam overfilling, but it seems like they're either too incompetent or were actually planning for this.

And while the eastern bank is lower, so there was more flooding there, most of that is lowlands that aren't settled. More settlements flooded on the right bank than on the left bank. And these are all Ukrainians getting flooded.

[Serb]

Keep sucking your propaganda balls and deny logic.

[Serb]

Russia has no dams on the Dniepr river. The cascade of five dams, build during Soviet times are on the Ukrainian territory and controlled by Ukranians.

So, when they have decided to drop water from their upper dams, they had only one goal - to hydro impact Kahovja dam, weakened by their previous shelling and to make the results of flooding even worse.
Period.

[-Jrabbit]

Yeah! Fking PERIOD, brainless zombies!

[N35t0r]

I guess logic isn't your strength.

[Berzerker]

Well whose the idiot here? LOL! Concentration of force is the one advantage an attacker has. Defenders need to prepare across an entire front. Attackers concentrate forces to achieve local dominance. You further show your ignorance in saying that Russians would prepare extensive defenses and then just move beyond them to attack? You really know nothing about military strategy do you?

I think he's saying the flood allowed Ukraine to use troops guarding the now flooded front (east of Kherson) to relocate for a focused attack elsewhere, like maybe the power plant.

[Serb]

Sure!

[Serb]

And they have confessed they will do that in December, 2022:

Ukrainian forces in the area were trying to push southward to bisect the Russian-occupied territory west of the Dnieper and get within artillery range of the Nova Kakhovka dam.

Kovalchuk considered flooding the river. The Ukrainians, he said, even conducted a test strike with a HIMARS launcher on one of the floodgates at the Nova Kakhovka dam, making three holes in the metal to see if the Dnieper’s water could be raised enough to stymie Russian crossings but not flood nearby villages.

The test was a success, Kovalchuk said,

The Washingtonpost, December 2022!!!

The fkers think Internet doen't remember anything!

The dam wasn't blown with a himars missile
Soviey dams were built to withstand shelling/small missiles.

The blast that blew it up came from inside, and from a significant amount of high explosives.

[PLATO]

NPR had an interesting interview with some Ukrainian Soldiers who exposed some of their plans in the area that were completely foiled by the dam blowing up. Several recon units had already crossed the river and they were preparing positions for regular army units to cross. It seems that it was a successful defensive move by the Russians even if it was completely illegal and immoral.

[N35t0r]

Yeah, it's my opinion that the Russians intended to just blow a small amount of the explosives they had set to generate a small breach and thwart Ukrainian attempts at crossing the lower Dnieper, but they accidentally blew the whole thing up.

The Kahovka dam was hit by about five hundreds of Ukranian shells, including over 80 HIMARS, since the October 2022.
Thus the structure of the dam was weakened.
Then the Ukranians had dropped the water from the upstream dams.
The hydroimpact had finished the job, the HIMARS didn't.


How fkn stupid could you be, if Ukranians themselves have told you at Dcember 2002, THAT THEY DID HIT THE DAM WITH MISSILES?

How you (Westerners) could be so fkn IMBECILE DINIERS?

Why don't you F yourself with your BS?
