A different kind of benefit from Ukraine's invasion of Kursk:

Ukraine is already defeating some (narrow band) jammers by frequency hopping. This capture will enable Ukraine to use unjammed frequencies.
I am not and never have been a leftist.

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"?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

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 did not want "victory" on either side. The American view of war is always stalemate ... never actual victory. The same policy can be seen in Israel with Hamas.

World war two Germany defeated followed the next day with - Russian Cold War - No Victory
Korea ... Armistice - No Victory
Vietnam ... abandoned from rooftops - No Victory
Iraq ... pull out - No Victory
Afghanistan - Worst defeat in American history - No Victory
Ukraine/Russia ... Russia allowed to attack Ukraine, Ukraine not allowed to respond in kind and attack Russia - ongoing
Israel attacked by Hamas ... Israel "allowed" to respond but never to actually win - ongoing

My proposition is that America has NEVER WON any modern war. They fought to stalemate and then gave up.
Revolutionary War, Civil War, OK granted. But any war from 1900 until today, America fights until stalemate and then surrenders. That is what America ALWAYS does. Look at history. It will slap you in the face.

America is the source of 'endless 20+ year forever ongoing years of wars' with no victor. In fact, America LOVES endless wars. As long as NOBODY actually 'wins' the war, then we can stop and start the same war again in a couple of years.

Depending on America as a war ally is a fool's bet. "America" (not Jews) is really the source of all wars.

America is playing the entire world for FOOLS, and they get away with it every time and leave millions of dead in their wake as they leave and count their money.

My proposition is that America has never actually 'WON' any war, since 1900. America will fight until stalemate and then give up and pull out of the battlefield. That is what America ALWAYS does. War is not meant to be 'won' in terms of actual 'victory'. America just fights a war for a while ... and then simply pulls out and surrenders. It is not only a pattern, it is what America thinks war is.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

Look at the pattern, and since WWII and the advent of nukes, we haven't had a 'win'. I'm not counting the operations in Panama and Grenada, because those were more limited.

Korea, VietNam, Kuwait (while a 'win', was limited in objective and failed to eliminate the source of the problem, setting up...) Iraq, Afghanistan, Ukraine, Israel...
Definitive victory has not been on the table for a while.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

DAY 11 - UKRAINE'S INVASION OF RUSSIA


Syem River bridge near Glushkova.


https://twitter.com/pravda_eng/status/1824509696230801773

"Collapsed" under the "weight" of a Ukrainian cruise missile or JDAM, :silly: . There are 3 other bridges across this river: one is near the border of Ukraine, which Russia won't be able to use; the other two have limited weight-bearing capability and are on small roads, not very useful. Apparently, Russia has built a pontoon bridge near the Glushkova bridge, but it is of limited capacity and in an obviously vulnerable location. Ukraine has basically isolated a significant area from Russian reinforcements.

The destruction of the Pantsir near the Kerch Strait Bridge takes one more such system out of Russia's operational inventory. It MAY also presage attacks on the bridge itself or nearby supporting facilities.

In Leftist American political dogmas "WINNING" is 'racist'.
And the foe does not matter to them. If you 'WIN', no matter what, you are automatically a racist.

It is absurd with White people fighting similar White people, but, the very act of being successful, that alone, makes you racist.
Success is a mortal sin!

(do not try to understand this, the Liberal mind is a morass of confusion, self hate, and delusion)

And anyone who thinks any future major ememy of ours will play by these same rules are  foolish.  Expect something more like South Carolina / Georgia in 1864.

It's that way with any Communist government. If you have anything nicer or better, no matter how hard you worked to get it, or if you crated it yourself, then you have shorted the rest of the collective, and held back on them. That makes you evil in their minds.

(ENVY!)

Remember those teachers in school (in the '60s) who, when they caught you with gum, would ask if you brought enough for everyone? (fomenting ENVY! to prove you were bad)

(Yes that's how long this sh*t has been going on).

There really is a visceral greed out there in some people which I do not understand and can not relate.
These people are mentally ill, they are sick. Who would stay in Congress for 60 years until they die at their desk.
They are sick people. They are actually and factually 'mentally ill' by any medical definition.

Why would you ever 'win' a war?

I agree with your point, and I think we saw it demonstrated recently when $20 cures were maligned and buried for $100 shots that did not work. But then, I heard about half the people who ask how you are doing are only hoping you are worse off than they are so they can feel better about themselves. I don't gt it either.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Zvannoe bridge

That is the second bridge across that river that Ukraine has destroyed. It basically cuts off Russian troops on the side Ukraine controls or is marauding from reinforcements and supplies. Of course, today's barrier to Russian reinforcements may be tomorrow's barrier to Ukrainian advance.

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Is anything happening in Ukraine besides in the Kursk area?

@Cyber Liberty

Yes.  Russians are making significant (and costly) gains west of Avdiivka.  Pokrovsky is the new target.  They are also pushing west of Bakhmut towards Chasiv Yar.  Russia has a massive amount of troops built up in Donet'sk oblast, and the Ukrainians lack the manpower to stand up to the assaults.

Not all the posts on the daily updates are about Kursk.  But it does get most of the attention.  Here are the sectors in Ukraine to be watching:
