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-

Port of Novorossiysk on Google Maps

It appears that the White House has removed some of their target restrictions.

I wonder how much damage Russian AA does to surrounding towns and cities. Historically, many/most of the civilians killed during the Pearl Harbor attack were killed by USN and/or USA AA shells. Contact-fuse shells don't differentiate between military targets and incidental civilians.
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.

Without a doubt, there is some damage as most of the military targets and petroleum infrastructure are near civilian areas.

A Ukrainian drone takes down 3 Russian Mavic drones using a shotgun, then fires at a Russian combatant and finishes them off with a grenade.

That's badass!

The fire at the oil depot in Russian Engels cannot be extinguished for the fourth day, Russian Telegram channels report.

Has anyone told Putin yet?

I personally believe that Putin is kept in the dark WRT bad news.

What I find amazing is how the BDA videos of the attacks on petroleum infrastructure get posted.

Are partisans being given advanced notice of the attacks so they can position themselves to take BDA videos?

Yep, and almost certainly.

Back a bit over a century ago, SF Bay Area refineries and explosives manufacturers located well away from residential areas. The explosives companies bought more land than they used to keep a buffer area between their operations and residents (some of whom worked for the companies). Stalin and later Soviet leaders would not have been as careful. Nor Putin, probably.

The ONLY reason Ukraine ever listened to 'American restrictions' was because of fear America would cut off aid, in money and equipment. Now that no more aid is coming until Trump takes over, there is no longer any need to worry about what Biden and the idiot fool Blinken wants.

The same applies to Israel.

How these suburban moms in Ukraine manage grief by training to down Russian drones

NPR
Joanna Kakissis
January 10, 2025

NEAR BUCHA, Ukraine — The suburban moms in army-green fatigues assemble their rifles in a cold forest outside the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv.

Valentyna trained as a veterinarian. Inna is a teacher. Tetiana used to be a water utilities inspector. The others include a real estate agent, a nanny and a pastry chef.

On a Saturday afternoon, they shoot at targets in a muddy range. Valentyna grins after she nails a shot.

"Feels good," she says, "especially after what we've been through."

The women call themselves the "Combat Witches of Bucha." The name comes from a badge one of the women have depicting a witch with weapons, though the women say the name isn't important. Their mission is. They are part of a female air defense unit training to shoot down drones in the suburbs of Kyiv. They live in those suburbs, where occupying Russian troops killed, tortured and raped residents early in the 2022 invasion. NPR is not disclosing the women's last names at the request of the Ukrainian military.
