Is it unpatriotic to root for Russia?

How about Ukraine versus Russia in the Olympics?

No, you don\'t have to do ANYTHING. Personally, I know that Ukraine resistance will just get more people killed than necessary, but it DOES give me pleasure to see Russian tanks and aircraft getting destroyed.

I have seem some propaganda pieces by little people who know how to use media
editors on a computer. Like the one that claims to have shut down a Russian
helicopter. That\'s not on any major media outlets. The helicopter doesn\'t try
to evade the missile. The camera is perfectly positioned. Looks fake.

Have you seen the Sky News reporters being fired on? They keep yelling
\"JOURNALIST\". Considering the Western media, ESPECIALLY Sky News, has been
bashing Russia, that\'s like saying \"SHOOT ME!\"

I sure do like seeing some news that isn\'t centered on America. They are not
all bashing us, but they are all trying to communicate. Love it!

Absolutely is, but you have already been proven an Unamerican

well.

Go look up past olympic event results, umamerican idiot.

Not that John Doe shows any sign of wanting to reason with anybody.

He has snipped whatever it was he objected to - eternal september shows that my post started with \"There\'s nothing patriotic about choosing sides between Russia and the Ukraine\" which is a tolerably reasonable assertion, and not in any way factually incorrect.

Instead he posted \"BWAAAHAHAAA!!!\" which isn\'t any kind of reasoned statement, and then goes on to recycle his usual collection of irrational abuse culled from previous threads.

He does seem to be stupid enough that he might think that this might be some kind of \"reasonable\" behavior, or maybe he\'s simply insane.

I was joking. No surprise the foulmouthed group idiot Always Wrong
didn\'t get it.

The idea Americans must fall in line with Deep State propaganda is
LUDICROUS. The idea Americans must support every foreign war halfway
around the globe our government gets involved in is LUDICROUS.

Ukraine is corrupt. Our involvement there is just an attempt to force
Russia into a corner.

This foulmouthed slimy bastered Always Wrong couldn\'t care less about
America, it couldn\'t care less about defending our own borders.

No, from The Netherlands (country run by US puppet leader).
Yes if you see Olympics that way,, still you need to compete against a real adversary in that case,
Leaving your enemy out makes no sense.

Anyways seems they are trying very hard to kill themselves (skying, F1 racing, what not)

Jan is well known to be Dutch. He claims that he is now living in Friesland, but doesn\'t claim to be Fries - or to speak Friesian.

It\'s not a competition between countries, but rather between individual athletes. They compete as the best athletes their country can come up with, but that just a process to winnow down the competitors to a number that can fit on a track.

> It\'s nondestructive competition between adversaries.

It\'s not all that non-destructive. Sport injuries happen a lot at that level.

He must be CIA then.

Does the BBC main evening TV news programme count as a major media outlet?
Is it possible to take much evasive action in about 1 second?

Yeah, looks like the people responsible for the missile were filming it. They probably were looking for a good propaganda shot.

I read that Germany has reversed their position and are now sending all manner of weapons to Ukraine. I hope it makes a difference. One of the downsides of having a large force, is exposing yourself to enemy fire. If Ukraine can take out more aircraft, that will hurt Russia very badly and make it harder for them to advance. Without good air cover, it is much easier to attack the ground forces.

Both are necessary. Stingers for air and Javelins for ground. As i said in another post, they should now have thousands of them, but only reported hundreds of hits. Javelins are reported to have 90% kill rate. So, they should still have 90% unused. What are they waiting for, regarding the siting ducks (tanks) 15 miles north of Kiev.

Are you volunteering to take a Javelin or two to the tanks and see if you can hit one before they kill you?

Yes, i\'ll do that in Taiwan. I won\'t fight in Ukraine, but perhaps Taiwan.

Did you know that Javelins are mini-smart drones? Plenty of time to evacuate before onboard motor ignition.

The reports I have read from military analysts is that the Ukrainians
are targeting vehicles at the front of the columns, bottlenecks in the
road (such as bridges), and supply vehicles. There is simply no need to
bother with the vehicles in the middle - if the road in front is
blocked, their fuel supplies (which apparently were limited to start
with) are blown up, and the surrounding landscape is forest and swamp,
then they are not going anywhere. The column has hardly moved in a week
as the soldiers get more and more demoralised and it is dawning on them
that this is not the military exercise, walk-over, or liberation mission
they had been told. It makes sense to keep their missiles for when they
are really needed - Russian advances in other parts of the country have
been more successful.

The Ukrainians may have logistic challenges themselves. European
countries have supplied large numbers of weapons, but it might not be a
simple matter to get these to the front lines.

Yes, i guess Javelins are more expensive than vehicles. They are USD$200k each. We worry about soldiers running away with them than from them.
