Whooooooaaaaa....  I like the sentiment, but zapping 7.8 mbd off the world oil markets might not be an outcome we want. 

These kind of events could trigger a world economic meltdown, especially if it causes oil to rocket up to $120-150/bbl

I understand the infrastucture of this country's oil industry better than Russia, but ROSNEFT has to be feeling some nervousness.  Putin loses his hydrocarbon revenue stream?  Things are going to get really tough for the Putin's soldiers who basically might become stranded due to lack of resources.

My eyes aren't exactly "map-calibrated", but from my vantage point it looks like  5 of 9 of Russia's refineries (and association hardwared infrastructure) is within 500 miles of Ukraine.

Ouch!!!!
This is the region Hitler's southern thrust was targeting, to get the oil reserves and refineries here and in Romania.

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.

Russian Soldier Defects to Ukraine After Sabotaging 'Storm Z' Battalion Headquarters

Ivan Khomenko  |  Aug 20, 2024  |  17:16


A Russian soldier has defected to Ukraine after successfully carrying out an operation codenamed “Ocheret,” which involved the sabotage of a “Storm Z” battalion headquarters. This operation was conducted with the involvement of the “I Want to Live” project and the Legion “Freedom of Russia.”

According to reports, a 24-year-old Russian FPV pilot with the callsign “Silver” made contact with the Legion “Freedom of Russia” in the winter of 2024. His decision to cooperate with Ukraine was driven by systemic crimes committed by the battalion’s command, including extrajudicial executions, beatings, and extortion.

As part of his cooperation with Ukrainian forces, “Silver” provided valuable intelligence on the location, strength, and intentions of enemy forces on a specific front. In May 2024, he executed a plan involving the throwing of grenades into the ventilation shaft of the battalion’s underground headquarters, where the battalion commander and other officers were sleeping. The explosion resulted in serious injuries to several officers.

Following the operation, “Silver” used a pre-planned escape route to flee and crossed into Ukrainian-controlled territory.  .  .

The "military" who demanded that the Kursk men take up arms turned out to be the owner of the funeral business

21 hrs ago




The "military" who criticized the Kursk men for leaving the region after the start of the offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine turned out to be an entrepreneur from St. Petersburg, earning money on funeral services, the Agency found out.

The day before, propagandist Dmitry Steshin posted a video in which a certain "serviceman" addressed men leaving the Kursk region. I would like to appeal to the male population of Kursk: what the did you confuse in the region? Where are you going, dear? If, f**k, all our men turn on the back and leave the cities that will be hit, f**k, and so on, what will happen in general? What are you doing? Can't you take up arms? Well, then take shovels,, dig trenches for the guys, I don't know, deliver food,. Where are you going?" he said.

As it turned out, the "military" turned out to be a resident of St. Petersburg, Kirill Suvorov, the director of a company that makes monuments for tombstones and helps bury dead soldiers. Suvorov's company also offers services for the delivery of "cargo 200".  .  .

Russia Launches New Drone Weapons Against Kursk Offensive

David Hambling  |  Aug 20, 2024  |  06:10am EDT




Ukraine’s advance into Kursk succeeded with the help of an electronic warfare blitz that blinded Russia’s reconnaissance drones and knocked their FPVs out of the sky. Now Russia is striking back with new drones guided by fiber optics which are immune to radio jamming. This is the first time such weapons have been used in combat.*

It is another reminder of just how fast small drones are evolving. And a warning to the rest of the world, which relies heavily on jamming to protect itself against drone attacks by terrorists.  .  .

Ukraine has blown the bridges on the river that runs Komarovka-Glushkovo-Alekseyevka. This traps Russian forces south of that river and blocks major reinforcement and supply to whatever forces are thus trapped. Russia built a couple of pontoon bridges, but these have limited capacity, and Ukraine knocked them out in a day or two.
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"?

Ukraine is allowing one of the pontoon bridges to remain open because it makes it easy to target vehicles waiting to cross.  Lesson learned from Antietam.  One of the earlier posts shows a group of vehicles smoking near that pontoon bridge.

Deception and Corruption: How Sudzha District Misled Kremlin During Ukraine's Kursk Offensive

An intercepted call by the head of the administration of the Goncharovka settlement in the Sudzha district reveals how the leadership of the Kursk region deceived its residents.

Kyiv Post | August 21, 2024, 11:20 am


The local administration in the Sudzha district deceived both the Russian leadership and local residents during the first days of Ukraine’s offensive into the Kursk region on, according to a Ukrainian Defense Forces phone interception.

In it Oleksandr Harkavenko, the head of the administration of the Goncharovka settlement said:

“We reported very good news to Moscow for two days. At that moment, we were losing so much territory.” The intercepted conversation was published by the Russian-Israeli entrepreneur Leonid Nevzlin on Aug. 18.

According to him, the leadership of the Kursk region deliberately deceived residents that the situation was under control, while leaving them to their own devices.

A few weeks before the start of the offensive in Goncharovka, Russian troops placed a 122mm Grad multi-barreled rocket launcher system (MLRS) in the middle of a residential area from where it opened fire on Ukraine.  .  .

...

So, the Ukrainian invasion has led to Russia bombing its own people and infrastructure? How nice that Russian people are experiencing, for a few days, what Ukrainian people have been experiencing for 2 1/2 years.

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

Some of these news reports have to be getting back to population in Moscow, one would think.  This is akin to Biden bombing Yuma.

Munitions used to bomb Russia are not being used to bomb Ukraine.

I'm hearing more chatter about Putin being deposed sometime soon. This invasion by Ukraine just might end the war!

Deposition by defenestration would be fitting, but I won't be holding my breath in anticipation.
