Russia/Ukraine Megathread V6

[Err]

Or maybe he went in swinging wide looking for a quick KO and walked into a few good punches that have him on the back foot. Like a contender stepping in the ring against a journeyman but once he gets there it's Emanuel Steward in the opposing corner and he ends up with more than he bargained for.

Russia has Teofimos dad in their corner.

It's very well made. Come And See has a reputation as pacifist war movie, but instead it's the classic story of the Russians being the victims suffering for the motherland and then there's a nice little denazification in the end.

Man, it's a Belarusian movie about Belarusian village. Stop it already <Lmaoo>.

Best movie about Stalingrad is naturally the 1949 USSR made Battle of Stalingrad. Russians are having a terrible time in the city under siege until Stalin gets tired of all the loser generals making bad decisions, takes control of strategy and suddenly the defenders start chasing the Germans back to west killing them relentlessly in the endless frozen wastelands. 3 house and 12 minutes of pure Stalinist joy.

IIRC Pavlov's dogs got eaten during that time.

Hey, I've cried while watching it, too. But for different reasons, I guess. To each his own, definitely an amazing movie.

It's very effective for sure.

Has either side formally declared war? Im not an expert on the Ukrainian or Russian parliment

Turning from Fonz into Potsie.
Such a shame...

Russia has invaded Ukraine. Idk why you guys are hell bent on alleging i’ve ever said otherwise

What does them formally declaring war have to do with anything? When another Country invades a Countrys sovereignty its war. Just the generic definition of war fits as well.

Hmmm. I dunno, bro. Source for the "invasion" ? Where are all the videos, the poloroids? I personally haven't seen one laserdisc containing the proper documentation.

Commissioned by Russian communist regime to fit your masochistic needs.

Declaration of war is actually an interesting stuff here - Ukrainians can officially cut the gas pipe then, for example. No access for dat easy money sponsoring the war effort for Putin.

This is nowhere near the biggest military operation since WWII:
. Korea
. Vietnam
. Gulf War
. Iraq
. Afghanistan

 

[LangfordBarrow]

With Europeans going away from energy dependency from Russia, I bet USA is about to swoop in and make some serious $$$ with their export.

Do you think it will offset all the aid and military assistance we provide for the area?

It was filmed in 1985, with Gorbachev, the most anti-commie General Secretary of USSR ever , leading the country.

Great movie. Too bad it took 8 years to film it due to Soviet censors. But it turned out to be one of the best war/antiwar films ever made.

 

[San Marino]

US troops are not going to Ukraine. Biden is an idiot.
The White House needs to keep both Biden and Harris from opening their mouth in from of the media.

 

[7even]

kind of weird that people that lean right in politics in America are rooting for the Russians because they want Biden to fail. Russian boot lickers I guess.

Wouldn't it fuck with their money as well? What part of Ukraine does the gas line go through?

 

[Captain Herb]

They could light that country up in a heartbeat and its really really stupid to pretend otherwise. Idk what more evidence is necessary.

Dude, they suck at conventional warfare. I don't think we need any more proof of that. You want them to light Ukraine up with nukes? That wouldn't be so smart either.

Mosfilm was not lead by Gorbachev, but probably some Brežnev era relic.

 

[LangfordBarrow]

Actually, nobody saw it coming in such a manner. Was a surprise to me and almost everyone in Russia. I've read an interview with Hostomel airfield assault participants recently, they were like "we were 99% sure there will be a no-go signal before we saw cruise missiles flying overhead".

US Intelligence saw it coming...
