Ukraine must be in poor shape for Macron to make that threat.

Well, stand corrected

Have recalled it happening elsewhere, first time I've heard of it in NA. The video of the guy does have one darkly funny bit, a cop or guard draws his gun on him and keeps it on him another tries to put out the fire and render aid.

40k Inquisitor deciding to tie skills to weapons was a dumb idea. Also very boring weapons. Slogging my way through the campaign. Better check how much I paid for this to feel worse about this.

"All this makes the prospects of a decisive Ukrainian victory seem very slim. Even if Ukraine can somehow regain the initiative, it seems very doubtful that it could ever gain the degree of military superiority that it would need to achieve its stated political objective of restoring its 1991 borders. " I believe even Zelensky wasn't that optimistic on returning to the 1991 borders in the Fox interview. Kuleba always has the best ideas.

https://www.france24.com/en/europe/20240225-zelensky-says-ukraine-s-counteroffensive-plans-leaked-to-russia Sure the PR about it and perhaps the target being obvious had nowt to do with it. Sadly means no trailer for the 2024 offensive, I guess Budanov also stating they know how Navalny died - Not much else interesting from the forum this weekend.

And another Russian AWACS plane downed, near Mariupol. They claim friendly fire, others thinking mythic F-16s at work.

"We are ready to stand shoulder to shoulder with the United States in the trenches near Tehran, in North Korea or in Beijing." Curious marketing from Goncharenko, support us so we'll be grunts for you in future.

https://www.reuters.com/world/iran-sends-russia-hundreds-ballistic-missiles-sources-say-2024-02-21/ Rumoured Iranian missiles actually delivered. Now just to wait for the rumoured Su-35s to be delivered.

Wouldn't want to be an F-16 pilot trying to bomb Rostov or something, even with Russia's shovel based AD.

Or she got offered good coin. Lady's gotta eat.

David Lynch should direct Borderlands

Was this the 3rd AB refusing to go into the city? I vaguely recall reading this but now cannot find it, feh. NYT reporting - https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/20/us/politics/ukraine-prisoners-avdiivka-russia.html https://archive.is/ep3wO Surprised we're not seeing much crowing on Telegram by Russians though, if the prisoner haul is that great

Looking at 3 email chains all about the same issue in my inbox. And each of them has an out of date snapshot of the issue. Fun day.

Breen needs to get Steve Seagal involved.

Phantasmagoria is superior by far. Antwiler never did get around to making a movie with the money he leeched did he ?

Had those neat sync kills, at least. Also the cover system, which I guess no one used that much. I should buy that, at least to see why everyone is so negative about it.

SVR thinks they're Mossad or something.

Two more jets downed today, well or is claimed so far, maybe moving western AD around or could be friendly fire, distances are pretty close. Smart to move air defense closer to front line, Ukrainian troops got worked over by glide bombs in Avdiivka. Won't happen, nature of the game means the West won't want their weapons to be hitting Russia proper. Ukrainians have their own stuff that can hit Russia, they've done it quite a bit in the past few weeks.
