If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

Biden:


Biden gives Ukraine permission to carry out limited strikes within Russia using US weapons

Alex Marquardt, Jennifer Hansler and Kylie Atwood  |  10:19 PM EDT, Thu May 30, 2024


(CNN) — President Joe Biden has given permission to Ukraine to strike inside Russian territory with American munitions, though he has restricted their use so Kyiv can only hit targets over the border close to Kharkiv .  .  .

Denmark to allow Ukraine to strike targets in Russia with Danish-supplied F-16s

KHRYSTYNA BONDARIEVA , STANISLAV POHORILOV — THURSDAY, 30 MAY 2024, 14:50


Danish Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen has announced that Ukraine will be allowed to use Danish-supplied F-16 fighter jets to strike military targets inside Russia.

"The short answer is yes," Rasmussen said.

"This is not a new position, it is part of the transfer. We made it clear from the very beginning when we discussed this with our Foreign Affairs Committee in the Danish Parliament that this is part of self-defence so that it would also be possible to attack military targets on the aggressor's territory," the minister explained.  .  .

I loathe war. Someday people will learn to be kind and humane to each other

But I have to admit finding these videos you post fascinating and interesting
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

Biden regime protecting Russia:


https://twitter.com/sentdefender/status/1796213623355855245

Why would LIEden and his minions care that Ukraine is telling Russia, "All your radar and SAM systems are vulnerable to our attacks!" It's not like Ukraine has nuclear weapons.

Ukraine's war on Russian radars has two obvious purposes: punch holes to make further attacks easier; force Russia to spread its protective resources more widely and thinly.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

These are small coast-guard-type cutters, not major targets intrinsically, but with larger fleet units being converted to submarines, whatever Russia has left to patrol coasts and harbors become more important.

Re the ferries that were damaged, the carrying capacity of the Kerch Strait Bridge is still limited. So Russia has been using the ferries - large flat decks, large weight-carrying capacity - for heavier items and for large loads. Mission-killing the two ferries impacts Russian logistics to Crimea and the southeast Kherson region. Think of it as strangulation by a thousand threads.

More pics and info here:

This could impact Crimea's fuel situation. As did the attack on the small oil storage facility mentioned above:

It's interesting that Ukraine is doing so much near the Kerch Strait Bridge. I don't know if they're trying to draw Russian SAM resources there to thin coverage elsewhere or if they're just telling the Russians that they could hit the bridge at will.

Didn't this whole thing start with Biden telling Russia it was okay to invade Ukraine as long as it was just a small incursion?

That terminal sits right in the middle of the strait.  I think they are messing with Putin's mind.  Definitely tying down Russian resources.

The below URL was sent to me over 1.5 months ago.  This comes from a Ukrainian friend who was in the Spetznats for Russia when he was young.

As you will see, the number of dead Russians is approaching 500,000.  Tanks, are approaching 8,000, and seeing the videos on this thread, it is no mystery.  Ukraine is kicking the sh*t out of Russian tanks.  Longevity of life for a Russian as a tank trooper in Ukraine must be like one month or less.  What a meat grinder.

To put it in perspective, the USA lost 340,000 military in 3.5 years during WWII, perhaps our most brutal modern day war excluding the Civil War.  Even Vietnam, we lost 59,000 over a 11-12 year period or so.   If you are as old as me, we watched the war and its stats every night on the nightly news, with glimpses of videos of the death and destruction.  These numbers for Russia are dramatic, but Putin is lying to the Russian people.  They have no idea what is going on.  They so desperately want to believe what their media is telling them, like 50% of the people here in the USA dancing over the outcome from yesterday.  And the numbers Russians see are nothing remotely like what are on the chart below.

Ignorance is bliss. My wife asked me how long I thought this war would go on?  I said up to about 8 more years.  It will take that long for either Putin to die, or Russia to begin running out of money.  History is repeating itself again(thinking of Russia's effort in Afghanistan in the 80s), only this time, it is costing the USA taxpayer a huge amount of money!!

And hoping Trump gets in and ends it in 24 hours like he claims.  More empty Trump rhetoric.  Just like ending the H1-b Visa Program.
