The BSF can threaten the coast of Crimea, and Ukraine wants Crimea back

therefore, the BSF must be eliminated ... Ukraine has already said this quite clearly

The newspaper tries to connect the dots.

Britist companies and government bought almost all Ukrainian port facilities in the Black Sea.

British missiles were provided to knock out the Black Sea fleet, using American Intelligence coordinates.

The war on Crimea is the British directed sector of the war.

Ukraine will not have Black Sea access once Russia occupies and incorporates Odessa, Catherine the Great’s Great City of Accomplishment, into Russia.

Britian will lose it’s money spent on Black Sea port access. This is price they play for setting up politician’s for sale who give away their country for pennies on the dollar, e.g., Zenlinski and the Keiv regime.

Once Kiev falls, the West will not be able to use proxy forces in Ukraine to attack Russia. For all those who think it is okay for Ukraine to attack Russia, wait until there is a war against the United States and it is the same logic and rules used to target Russian Soil being used to target US Soil.

The real point of this war is that a nation with nuclear weapons is being attacked. This is now the new normal. The United States will not be in a position to use nuclear weapons to respond to missiles and artillery hitting American cities in the future.

Stolen elections have consequences.

Biden’s corrupt history is all one needs to know about Ukraine; only a facist’s would elevate a bunch of NAZIs into political and military power in Ukraine... The leaders of the US and Canada applaud NAZIs now. The leaders of Britian helped with their rise to power in Ukraine. Even Germany got swept up in the hysteric NATO backing for Ukraine.

Today, the things happening in the US look more and more like Germany in the mid-1930s. The DNC and RINOs have become the Facists or mirror-image communists where the intersection of Communists/NAZIs join together to trample the rights of everyday citizens in nations.

Business Insider is not a reliable source. It was co-founded by Jeff Bezos and Henry Blodget, who got ran off Wall Street for SEC fraud violations. This story is typical: His source was “Russian war bloggers”, which means it could have just been written by AI using internet bloggers for the source. I would really be careful with believing anything that they print, frankly. Blodget was born and raised on Manhattan’s Eastern side, so he is typical New York Wall Street type who got caught for fraud. News coming out of Ukraine through bloggers is totally unreliable, and you can find a blog who you agree with on either side. A lot of propaganda.

Firing the officer in charge is the military equivalent of writing on a failure analysis report, “the workers have been retrained.”

For those who don’t know, this was the signature phrase used when the engineers had no idea how something bad had happened. But don’t worry, it won’t happen again because all of the workers have been retrained. (Incidentally, having added that phrase to dozens of failure reports, I have no personal knowledge of anyone actually being “retrained.” Because when you’re analyzing something that’s more carbon 12 than actual hardware it’s hard to know what happened to turn it from hardware to carbon.)

But pulling back to the ten-thousand-foot level, it’s hard to see, given what the officer in charge had to work with how he could have prevented the sinking of this latest ship. The hardware used and the tactics are brand new, and the Russians don’t have an adequate counter strategy.

Apart from the Ukrainian/Russian cheerleaders here, it’s good to see Russia’s military taking a hit.

If only we had a serious CIC we’d be letting our oil & gas industry drill baby drill and knock out their gravy train, too.

Germany’s Axel Springer is a left wing operation: “The company started in 1946/1947 by journalist Axel Springer. ... The Axel Springer company, the largest publishing house in Europe, controls the largest share of the German market for daily newspapers; 23.6%, largely because tabloid Bild is Europe’s highest-circulation newspaper with daily readership exceeding 12 million.” [The following is BS, probably provided to Wiki by Springer itself.] “Upon its acquisition of Politico in 2021 and of BUSINESS INSIDER in 2015, Axel Springer SE extended a policy that all employees must support a free-market economy, a united Europe, and supporting Israel is a ‘duty’.”

Thanks. I have learned to not trust any media, regardless of whom the represent. Reading Orwell shows you how they operate.

First off, Vatnik, read your own tagline. If your post isn’t propaganda, I don’t know what is.

Second, all the crew made it safely off the Kunikov before it was transformed into the Black Sea Fleet’s newest submarine. How is that “bloodlust” when nobody died - just one less instrument of death for the orc navy to use against Ukraine.

You need to read more than just the orders of the day at the farm. Pathetic.

What’s a Vatnik, piggy? Sorry, I’m an American who speaks English. I don’t know any Slav lingo like you zeepers. I use English in my tagline, not Ukrainian or Russian.

Zeepers are the most blood thirsty posters I’ve seen in my 25+ years on FR. You count every drop of blood spilled, every severed limb, (including private parts) and every death.

You can’t get enough.

Here’s a few examples of zeeper bloodlust:

2-10...Speculation on my part. Not a direct threat as YOU have issued to FReepers.

2-18...My gosh, you've never heard of Google Translate?

You keep proving what FReepers say: Zeepers aren't the sharpest knives in the drawer.

Given you previously wished me to "go to hell," it probably is not a sensible idea to include me in any of your comments to others.

From that ill moment moment forward, your comments to me were worthless.

Do not ping me ever again.
