English is my first language, I can read perfectly fine. Cottage stated the war would be over in 10 days, and it was 10 days PAST the first 10 days for it to be over.

Family is my wife's parents and brother in Lviv. They are doing fine right now, just renting their 3 homes out to like 30 people to sleep in right now. The military base with volunteers was MILES away from Lviv and they thought they were being bombed when it happened 40ish hours ago, called my wife at like 2am scared to death.

I don't think Poots has any reason to fuck with Lviv, the city itself. Hope I am right. Thanks for asking though appreciate it.
Good deal on the fam.

I read his statement as saying it's been more than 10 days since it was said they only had 10 days left to get it done. Not that important.
 
It's not working out for the Russian mercenaries.
If you're starting a War and you hire them at the git, you're losing.
Anyone have a decent, vetted number of Russian troops killed?

We'll probably never know the true number.
 
My wife thinks im absolutely disgusting I still eat them weekly even though the extremely high sodium is bad for you.. Ill randomly throw meats and cheeses and different spices in as well, lol. I could live off ramen noodles for years with some type of protein to throw in it.

Everyone should have at least one kitchen unit filled with long-life foods like Ramen.

Nothing disgusting about them, particularly given like you say they're just an ingredient and can be as awesome a meal as you make it!
 
?? Seriously? I'm about as typical American white dude as it gets and I can't remember the last time I used sugar. Is it coffee for you guys or what?
I was just joking along with him. I use it with my coffee but was just playing it up on the fat Americans and sugar joke.

Renting? Surely not making them pay right right

It's in at least 75% of all foods consumed in America. You may not be actively baking or adding sugar to your food, but best believe it's there.

Something like 50 bucks a week to cover expenses to keep it running. Ukrainians aren't rich people man. Could you afford to house 30 people for free for an indefinite period of time? She cooks and cleans for them as well, it's tradition to take care of your guest and what not over there.

Little off topic but when Ukranians cook they cook for like 100 people every time, I'm super spoiled from my wife. The exact opposite of most American women, she cooks 3 meals a day every day

My wife (Philippina) is the same way. I'm telling her, "It's just you, me, and the dog. You don't have to cook a smorgasbord every day"

Her - "I don't work that way."

Me- *Sigh*

She will literally ask me and prepare food days ahead in her mind. And ask me if I want XYZ, and then when cooking will throw ABC in there. Can't complain though lol. It isn't a bad trait for the misses to have!

Well yes actually I could. But that's neither here no there. But if she's sorting all the food and such that's fair enough. If it's 50 just for the roof above their head I find it a bit exploitive is all.

I couldn't fit 30 people under my roof tho . Food water is the easier part . ( rural dams etc ) but people would have to camp out in sheds lol

Ps that food looks delicious.

up to 180 foreign mercenaries killed...

https://www.rt.com/russia/551910-mercy-mercenaries-ukraine-konashenkov/

foreign fighters will have 2nd thoughts about going to ukraine after this

Doubt it most guys are not running they are not reddit failures or fearful of retaliation by Russia.

US had blackwater before name changed guys hung up on bridge an burned alive more guys jumped at contract work. They are serious operators who live for the fight. I can tell you there are a sh#t load of these guys.

These guys are all over the world not just US. Little side story I saw a sticker "look new" of a bear paw "blackwater logo" on a 70's Chevy Impala "kinda fit the guy". He had a beard an short hair looked nothing like a killer. But that's kinds their MO.

Good luck sourcing parts, tech, and finding somewhere to land them other than "rough" areas.

Russian airlines will keep planes leased from foreign firms

"The fate of hundreds of planes leased by Russian airlines from foreign companies grew murkier Monday after Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law letting the airlines register those planes and continue flying them.

Russian state media said the law will let Russian airlines keep their fleets and operate foreign planes on routes within Russia.

Many of the planes used by Russian airlines are leased from foreign companies, including several in Ireland, a member of the European Union. Last month, the EU banned the sale or leasing of planes to Russia as part of sanctions to punish Russia for invading Ukraine. It gave leasing companies until March 28 to end current contracts in Russia."

Yes there's an influx of foreign fighters from places like Syria and Georgia, plenty of people worldwide who are professional experts at war, they're not getting blown up in a base, they aren't at a base because they don't need any training.

Hitting a base full of 'foreign' soldiers in training isn't hitting the people you need to hit.
 
Toilet paper is an essential household item, sugar is not. The point went entirely over your head. And guess what? These shelves aren't going to get re-stocked like they did in the US.
Do you even bidet bro?

symbolic for sure. I saw multiple stories today from CBS/CNN profiling mostly westerners, why they're there. The story noted that guys who can't cut it remain in training until they're not a liability like you alluded to. Honestly it was kind of gross to watch, some 26 year old dude with a 2 year old kid in California was profiled. The people who know what the fuck they're doing aren't likely to jump in front of a camera and mic, but it sort of felt like the media was selling average Joes on going over to fuck off in Ukraine. Weird times

Yeah it's fucked up, people shouldn't be going if they need instruction, and it's bizarre to profile people like that.

I guess it's intriguing, but it's disgusting at the same time.

I'm sure there are foreign potential fighters receiving some level of training outside of Ukraine.
