    Right now very little news about the Ukraine. However the NATO countries are now supplying long range guns used by NATO which give huge successes and have precise targeting. They blew a bunch of Russian fighter planes up as well other Russian military supply storage facilities. Even reached targets in the Krimea peninsula.

    However the US should re-supply them with the "ammunition" for the howitzers etc.

    NATO is busy to supply them with even more long range equipment and rocket launchers.

    It is the intend to "clear all the Russian occupied area's according to Zelensky; let's hope they succeed.

    The Russians now "bomb" very small towns and haul "criminals" out of jail to fight for them. In the meantime the "world" does nothing and Putin just continues murdering innocent people. I guess we are too busy with our own created shit to care.

    What a world we live in ; no wonder more and more "idiots" pop up every day. Watching the "news" indeed gets you into the "nuthouse" for sure. Especially the "indoctrinated" people here, who still think that this country is "number one" in the world. The elections which are coming up shows that this country has become an huge "nut house" with lots of weirdo's rising to the "top" . Just let certain "media" influence the "uneducated" crowd here and "success" is assured.

    Russia and the Ukraine are an far from my bed happening so who cares. But yeah people here don't seem to realize that we are heading in the same direction as Russia; electing Trump or Desantis will get us there.

    Lots of fighting in the Krimea; lots of Russian facilities hit. I hope the Ukraine can maintain their advances. The Russians are loosing lots of war material and loss of their military. I just wonder why the "media" here is so "un-interested" in what is going on there. I guess the "local" partisan B.S. here has "priority". Cheney will likely loose in the "red" State of Wyoming; that says enough about the "education" here. I guess this country is and stays "brainless". Let's hope Garland will do the right thing and set things straight. But it will be an uphill battle against the "indoctrinated" Fox News and Trump followers.

    Sorry this country is moving in the wrong direction for a long time yet to come.

    On top of the things happening here, the situation in the Ukraine is getting dangerous. The huge "nuclear plant" is still in the danger zone and the Russians bomb it day and night very close to it. The people who run it are controlled by the Russians. So I just wonder what game the Russians are playing with this Nuclear Plant. Time will tell, but I fear things may escalate.

    Putin plays with "fire" and does not care if it explodes. What can the "West" do? Likely "nothing" at all.

    The UN team of inspectors has arrived to inspect the Nuclear power plant. I guess they will find out that this is run by the Russians and operated by Ukrainian personnel . It must be an "messy" operational structure . In the meantime it "rains" Russian missiles nearby. It is time that this plant gets fully back into Ukrainian hands.

    The Russians are now getting attack drones from Iran; what is the US doing about that?

    This "invasion" by Russia is now already more than 6 month going on. How much longer can the Ukraine as well Russia keep this up? What will the future bring? Let's hope theUkraine wins and get their country back, but who gets the re-building burden. I guess lots of assistance is needed from the west for years to come.

    Things on the "battle field improved for the Ukrainians. However thePutin regime has now ordered that 300K reservists are being called up to fight in the Ukraine. Due to such, plenty of Russians who could be called up, are now leaving the country in a hurry . Putin now threatened the "west" to nuke London if they keep "winning" in the Ukraine.

    In the meantime the "war" industry here is making sure that they can produce their "stuff" as may be required.

    I at least did not hear anything from Biden, but he may say something at the UN today.

    As long as he does not act like Chamberlin did before WWII , I hope.

    It is time we stop all the "if and but" attitude and be "solid" in our responses . But the "turmoil" here continues as usual due to the horrible "attitude" here of the indoctrinated Trumper's and the stealing of secret documents, so the Ukraine is actually shoved onto an less important issue right now. Wakie, wakie, Biden.

    The 300,000 number just jumped to 1,000,000. Students are being pulled from class, and workers are being pulled from their jobs.

    Heather had a few comments about the situation:

    Yes, heather had an good story. I just wonder what the US will do. I guess the Ukraine will need lots more ammunition.

    However before any of the 1 million are a "bit" trained or escaped their "forced" labor, then I hope they will just be "cannon fodder" if they are not trained. Also I expect that a lot will "surrender" since they likely rather be in the Ukraine if you are "forced" to kill people for nothing. So this whole thing may backfire on Putin. If all of this gets on the "underground news "in Russia, I bet they will not be too happy and protest, which they already did, but got themselves in even more shit and got conscripted into the army there. Anyway, I see this as an loosing "deal" for Putin. But the "indoctrination" by him about the awful "jews" in the Ukraine may have an effect; the future will tell the outcome.

    Things only got worse; Putin now implemented that if Russians who refuse to kill Ukrainians and drafted by him to fight there and join the "enemy" will get extensive punishment and long jail times.

    Thus if Putin's army is then consisting of "untrained" scary conscripts then for the Ukrainians it is like shooting fish in a barrel. I hope Zelensky has enough ammunition to kill them all. And lets hope he can defeat Russia in a hurry.

    May be the US can help by providing an "iron dome" as the Israeli's have developed to prevent the Russian rockets to ruin their buildings/bridges/railroads etc.

    The UN is and acts like an dead duck and does nothing against all the crimes committed by Putin. Some "words" only.

    What an world we live in; just waiting till some "idiot" uses "nukes"? Guess on how WWI and WWII started. Scary times ahead.

    Indeed things are getting worse. Putin has become even more brutal and "bombs" everything what moves.

    It is unbelievable that the "west" can't do anything about it. The strange thing is that Putin declared in an big "show" that the pieces occupied by "them" now are part of Russia. So then it is even more weird that you then kill everything in sight what moves in your "own" country. I thought they are "nuts" here with our way to elect incompetent people, but Russia lost all its "marbles".

    In the meantime the economy "tanks" and the stock market is down every day. So the "world" including "us" is on the wrong track, due to letting "incompetency" rise to the top. Greed and "bully-ism" and lack of proper education drives it.

    All of this is caused by "human incompetence" How did we get an Putin or an Kim? Humans themselves are responsible for what is happening now. All of this will lead us to the "end" of the world as we know it. Our "inventions" are killing us in the end. Even our "computers" help to achieve not a better life, but are also instruments to get power over us and design even more "killing" tools. The "ant colony" is only busy to please the "queen ant" but forget that the bulldozer can flatten the ant colony in 10 seconds. Yes we helped building the "bulldozer"; it is an vicious circle which "humans" themselves have created.

    The universe will go on and does not even notice the tiny ants here who are eradicating themselves by their own inventions.

    "Greed" and "incompetence" drives it; the whole "society is out of "wack" and unbalanced because of it.

    I just wonder about what was on the "news" yesterday that Musk tried to be an "government agent" and talked to Putin about an deal with the Ukraine, sounds like an "horror story" for sure.

    What is the "truth" about this? It said that Putin demanded that the "satellite radar system" (provided by an Musk involved company?) should be removed from the Ukraine. This system helps to locate Russian troops and their equipment.

    Anyway an very weird story. Has anyone more info about this? Please reply.

    It was again mentioned last night, but no one seems to have the "details"

    ( Musk and Trump and lots of others are ruining this country, so get rid of all the anomaly's in this government. Re-write our laws without "loopholes" and things like the "fifth". An Constitution of more than 200 years ago does not cut it.) Amen

    Things are getting worse now the Russians are using all kinds of drones etc. to bomb everything in sight. But yeah the UN and the world stands by and does nothing. What a world we live in. In the meantime Putin declares Martial law in the occupied area's. This will become an drawn out fight for a long time; no one "wins" either. The "winter" is coming so that will cause lots of hardship for the people there. The world has certainly not become an better place looking at the whole picture.

    The GOP rather stops all the support we give to the Ukraine; I guess they rather fill their own pockets ask Musk.

    The way it looks like now makes me worried that even if the Ukraine manages to win, that nothing is left of any infrastructure or livable conditions knowing that the "winter" is arriving there now. Putin is an monster, but no one stops him. The world has no shame either. History will not be kind to what is going on; what is there to come yet?

    Where is the UN????. The world watches ONLY and let the "criminal" do as he likes. No "guts" in the world anymore, because of fear of the "nukes" . Thus in other words we get the same result by that only the "murdering" takes longer than with an "nuke". What a world we live in!!
