Do you really believe the United States is like North Korea, Terry?

Do you think anyone who has taken an oath to support and the defend the Constitution should be held accountable for breaking that oath, Terry?
 
Four straight days of withering attacks on Odessa is interesting. It is either because the Ukrainians had built up a lot of stores, or because Russia is getting ready to take it, or both. One thing for sure is that Ukrainian air defense of Odessa has been destroyed...the Russians do what they want.

Russia was fine with the Ukraine as long as it's leaders were Russia friendly like Poroshenko. It was not until Zelensky took power and endorsed a democracy that Russia could see the writting on the wall that the Ukraine was becoming part of the west. The unrest in the Donbass region had been going on for 30-40 years. You are an idiot.
 
The Ukrainian fleet received British Sandown minesweepers, review.

Two former British minesweepers of the Sandown project, transferred to the Ukrainian fleet in 2021, have been accepted into the Ukrainian Navy. The solemn ceremony took place on July 2, 2023, on the day of the celebration of the Ukrainian Navy. The ceremony of commissioning two ships of mine defense M310 "Chernihiv" and M311 "Cherkassy" was held in the UK in Glasgow. Minesweepers-searchers of the Sandown type began to be built in 1988, they are now part of the British, Estonian and now Ukrainian fleets. The minesweepers continue to be in Britain and participated in the Sea Breeze-2023 exercise, they cannot arrive in Ukraine. Minesweepers of the "Sandown" type are designed to search for and destroy sea mines using remotely controlled search vehicles; minesweepers do not have devices for minesweeping. To reduce magnetism, the ship's hull is made of reinforced fiberglass. The ship's mechanisms are isolated from the hull by mounting on shock absorbers. The ships are armed with a 30 mm weapon station and three 12.7 mm machine guns. The crew of each ship is 45 people. The length of the minesweepers is 52.6 meters, the displacement is 465 tons, the speed is up to 13 knots on a diesel power plant. Cruising range 3000 miles.

The first footage of the defeat of the Swedish CV90 infantry fighting vehicle of the Ukrainian army during the battle has been published. The CV-90 armored vehicle started firing on the move and was hit by a grenade launcher in the Svatovo-Kremennoye direction.

The fate of the crew of the armored vehicle is unknown, the video has been shortened.

 
The British armored personnel carrier Mastiff PPV of the Ukrainian army is being sent to Russia for study. Together with the Mastiff armored personnel carrier, an American-made Oshkosh M-ATV armored vehicle will also be sent for study, both vehicles were abandoned by Ukrainian crews. Captured equipment will be studied by specialists to identify vulnerabilities and the possible use of circuit solutions in the creation of new types of military equipment. The Mastiff PPV armored personnel carrier is a British version of the US-made Cougar 6×6 armored vehicle. The Mastiff PPV armored vehicle began to be used since 2007, including in Afghanistan, now there is no need for them and most of the vehicles have been sent for storage.

 
An attempt to attack an MT-LB armored vehicle with a German DM-22 mine in Ukraine. The Russian armored personnel carrier MT-LB was almost hit by a German mine DM-22 of the Ukrainian army. Judging by the video, the mine did not work at the right time, apparently due to the mistake of its operator or improper installation, the mine fired earlier and did not hit the MT-LB armored vehicle. The DM-22 anti-tank mine is usually installed along roads

They wanted to take Ukraine in 3 days. How did that work out? So they wanted to prolong the war for years. I did not know that.
