He's just taking advantage of the fact that many western news outlets have mostly failed to contextualize the supply of US DPICMs against Russia's ongoing indiscriminate attacks on civilians using cluster munitions.
He also fails to mention that Ukraine is using them in Ukraine while Russia is using them in Ukraine; now it would be really nice if Russian cluster bombs were used in Russia..... don't you agree ?

Yes Russia is terrified of NATO. That’s why Biden refuses to send planes and long range missiles to Ukraine because Biden is scared Ukraine will strike deep in Russian territory.

Not to mention, Biden repeatedly stating NATO doesn’t want war with Russia over and over again.

I think you have it backwards.

BTW, there is no need for Biden to continue making these weak statements. Better to just keep quiet about trying to avoid a war with Russia and let the Ukrainians do the dirty work for you.
Do you actually think America’s military is afraid of Russia’s conventional forces?

There is no way you genuinely believe that.

"Interesting" article supposedly stating that Iran paid for 50 Su-35 fighter jets between 2013-2017, to be delivered in 2023, with none as yet forthcoming. The article speculates that Israel may have influenced this deal's lagging fulfillment. This is the first I'm hearing about any of this.

A Ukrainian answers Elon the Idiot.


For those who can't or won't access the Tweeter:

I want the best outcome for the people.Russia has at least 4 times the artillery of Ukraine and 10 times the ammunition. We have run out of normal ammunition to send Ukraine, so now send them cluster bombs in desperation, debasing ourselves with no change to the outcome.

The thing is, Mr. Musk, that Ukrainians have no good options here. If we give up and stop fighting, it will not save our lives. Russia will turn the whole Ukraine into one large concentration camp, killing, looting and raping - we've seen that on each piece of territory we de-occupied. (And then Russia will go further, because appeasing terrorists just makes them worse - again, we've seen that absence of international reaction to invading Georgia pushed Putin to invade Crimea, and that, in turn, pushed him to launch the full-scale invasion on Ukraine).So we choose to fight. This is our fight for survival, a literally existential battle. That's really the only choice we have. And we are grateful to all our Allies who help us fight.

Marine drone strike suspected. A few pretty hairy videos coming out of the aftermath. Would not recommend a vacation in Crimea…

Russia seizes control of shares in Danone and Carlsberg subsidiaries

The Russian state has taken control of French yoghurt maker Danone’s Russian subsidiary along with beer company Carlsberg’s stake in a local brewer, according to a decree signed by president Vladimir Putin.

The decree published on Sunday says the Russian state would “temporarily” manage shares belonging to Danone Russia and to Baltika, which is owned by Carlsberg.

The move comes after the Russian subsidiaries of Germany’s Uniper and Finland’s Fortum were taken under state control in April.

The Kremlin warned at the time it could seize more western assets on what it said was a temporary basis in retaliation for foreign moves against Russian companies abroad.

Danone said it was investigating the situation and “preparing to take all necessary measures to protect its rights as shareholder of Danone Russia, and the continuity of the operations of the business in the interest of all stakeholders, in particular its employees”.

Baltika is a leading brewing company in Russia, with approximately 30% of the market share. Carlsberg announced in March that it would sell the entirety of its activities in Russia, where it employed 8,400 people.

Last month the multinational brewer said it had found an unnamed buyer for the business, more than a year after announcing its exit from the market due to the conflict in Ukraine.

“Following the presidential decree, the prospects for this sales process are now highly uncertain,” Carlsberg said in a statement.

“The Carlsberg Group has not received any official information from the Russian Authorities regarding the presidential decree or the consequences for Baltika Breweries.”

One of few multinationals to have remained in Russia since the Ukraine offensive began, Danone said in October that it planned to withdraw from most of its business.

Danone then said it would give up the dairy and plant-based business in Russia, retaining only its infant nutrition branch. The move could result in a write-off of up to one billion euros ($1.1bn), it said.

and while they are fixing that side, storm shadow the railroad side.

Leaving them a single road link to bug out on.

and if they are really good, damage that just enough so vehicles have to be abandon, and its refugee time on foot. You don't get to carry your ill gotten gains back with you orcs. Civilian or military.

There are already traffic jams on the land route through southern Ukraine via Chonhar and Melitopol.

I'll be curious to see if the Turk pops a couple of Vlad's boats if they try to interfere with shipments.

The last time this happened they intimated that the Turkish navy could provide convoy escort and the Russians were not excited about that possibility so relented. Erdogan could also slow or stop exports to Russia which might also help him domestically given the current inflation crisis in Turkey.

My guess is Russia's method will be targeting ships with missiles over a great distance away.
If Turkey happens to be present, it may be their ship that is sunk or forced to use air defense.
