Anyone care to explain what siege tactics are? Is this indiscriminate shelling?

Occupation to cut off all supplies and starve the local population out. 

Means RU troops are taking huge losses and time is the better choice than force.

Yeah that's right.  My bad.

In Peru or Ukraine?  Asking for...me. 

Both are great trips, really. If your GF/wife is more into, say, a stay at The Grand in Paris then those trips would probably not be fun for her. More history, experiences and closer contact with the native population than the tourist centric flash and razed dazzle of Paris/London.

Like most controversial countries, it's way up high in a skyscraper, so you'd end up being one of those people in the street or blocking the entry to the whole building. 

Blocking entrance to the entire building would probably get the fastest results. The other tenants would start screaming at building mgmt to solve the building by inviting the problem tenant to leave.

Cool story bro warning. I didn’t realize I worked in the same building as the Israeli consulate until they started to get bomb threats. And we had to evacuate the building. No one blamed the consulate but also no one wanted them there.

Someone didn’t pay attention in gov 101.

If major powers started assassinating gov’t leadership it’s a game that would get out of hand really quickly. Even for countries without a formal policy about it, they follow a handshake agreement so they can have a functional government that isn’t riding around in armored cars and having people taste their food. 

How does a handshake agreement compare to a gentlemen’s agreement in terms of which are sincere and honored? Asking for a miserable piece of dick aggy.

Fuck Putin! He’s a miserable, dishonorable about to be pegged by the world POS! Zelenskyy best not meet for negotiations. No matter what Putin is doing. He’s sanctioning genocide and all other sorts of horrors to get Zelenskyy to flinch. Fuck Putin!

Based on the video of the captured Russian soldiers, I wonder if the military would actually have the initiative to follow through with Poo’s order to use nuclear weapons. 

 

Russians don't do any maintenance on their nuclear warheads. I would doubt hardly any could actually work.

not to go all Nicole BDE, but I think it was fenix that triggered this for me.

Dear Ukraine:

In Krakow I saw a literal heap of drunks passed out on top of each other in a public park on a weekday afternoon. It looked like a football pile-up after a run up the gut only they were all out like lights, snoring away....

 

When i was a kid we were walking down a street during a festival and my dad pointed out a young guy, well dressed, passed out hard, palms up on a little grass hill. The guy had a big, fat Nikon camera around his neck that looked like something a paparazzo should have. Like $10K easy. My dad pointed out two other young guys were walking past and stopped, looked at the guy and turned in to speak to each other.

We were at a distance and my dad pointed and said “See, look. Those thugs are going to steal his camera. Watch. Thats why you can let yourself be vulnerable like that! Don’t forget this!”

The two guys indeed went up to the passed out guy and one lifted him a bit and the other took his camera. The guy then took a picture of the drunk guy  with his camera and they put the camera back on his neck and walked off laughing.

My dad was right, i never forgot it.

It's a pro-Ukrainian sentiment that's tangentially related to Texas.  Why's it got you so mad?

Russian military doctrine seems to include a heavy dose of “drive your equipment into the open without infantry support, stop, and wait to get shot with a rocket.”

Putin, he’s only got one ball!

(RUS space commander) has got two but they’re small. 

(RUS UN rep) is rather similar 

And Belarus has no balls at all!

Dear Ukraine:

 

I love this place (surly!) I don’t know how I would have made it through the last few years without y’all. Brutal truth: y’all light up my life. Fortunately for y’all I’m having lots of the sex now with my boyfriend so I won’t go on any more drunken rants in the CR. 
 

Also, IIRC wasn’t it a Ukrainian figure skater in the Olympics before last that went all heavy metal in her long program?

Zelenskyy cannot meet by any means in Belarusian controlled place. That’s absolute suicide and Ukraine and the whole damned world need him to live this out. He’s more than a martyr and personally I’d like to see more people like him on the world stage.

So, about those point and click operator proof weapons. This is video of an NLAW being used.   Armor is pretty much obsolete.

This.  It's fascinating to watch, really.  Putin is using 1970's era tactics in 2022.

I listened to a Tagesschau interview with Merz which couldn't have been clearer on Friday evening.  This fuckup by Putin, showing everyone what he is (most of us already knew), changed everything.

As an aside since you brought up Merz, his performance on the floor of the Bundestag in today’s Special Session (which, btw, are rarely called) was reallllll fuckin’ solid. I have spoken with two long-time SPD voters in the political class (35+ year SPD histories) this afternoon who each started off the conversation with variations of, “Yeah, Merz killed it today. He looked like the Chancellor.” And full disclosure here, I don't vote here and I don't particularly have political views within German politics...I try to stay as removed as possible as I find it helps me at work. Ultimately, I am going to pay the same amount of taxes regardless of who is in power in Berlin and I am not invested in their own unique viewpoints driven by German culture to care much about it emotionally/personally. 
 

Anyway, from the speech. Merz came out solidly supporting the existing government's u-turn clearly, but he made some very critical caveats that were not lost on the German voters:


Per Merz, the CDU/CSU's continued support for the Government was contingent on:

1.  a complete re-thinking of the German energy policy  “we must once and for all eliminate the destructive idea that we have only narrow options for energy production” (translated: Fuck your platform, Greens and your little windmills, too…time to get real)


2. euro-for-euro cuts from elsewhere in the budget, including left-wing goodies. “We will not stand by supporting you to implement these things only for you to continue to distribute all the benefits in your coalition unchanged at the expense of the young generation. We will not do that." (translated: Fuck you, Greens. Fuck you, SPD….we are going to curb your spending in exchange for you having the “luxury’” of continuing to lead this country -at least until the fallout of all this shit with Russia causes your numbers drop to the point where we can govern in a 2-way coalition with the FDP, instead of a tripartite arrangement with one of y'all. Keep up the good work, FDP…y’all will be in with us sooner rather than later.)


3. the increase in Bundeswehr spending must not constitute “tinkering”. It must be a full “a comprehensive and full upgrade to the Bundeswehr, in which case your government will receive our continued support”



He then blasted Gerhard Schröder and post-war generation SPD guard, calling out all prior SPD claims that Putin is “a democrat”…calls Putin a “Kriegsverbrecher”…"War Criminal". (Got standing ovation for that one)
 

I know there are more important things going on at the moment than German politics, but since there are some who are interested, this was a really shrewd political move. Get all the benefits of the government’s u-turn…extract CDU concessions in the form of increased money to CDU constituent German weapons manufacturers…extract cuts to social programs that CDU hates, thus forcing the Center-Left SPD and Greens to take hits to existing political capital to their base, pushing them to the Die Linke, which won't get enough support to ever govern…solidify the natural CDU/CSU link with the FDP, essentially backing them as a CDU stalking horse in the existing coalition, with FDP knowing that they will likely be the next coalition partner once the early elections come. And finally, showing himself to be the big dog when it comes to “adults in the room governance.”
 

I’ll put it this way…the big takeaway from the speeches so far as been Merz’s control of the situation, and Baerbock’s sudden change of her hochdeutsch accent to a newly found Berliner accent.

Trying to think of a way Russia ends this without being completely humiliated and shunned and only answer is Putin being removed from power by Russians. It's the only way this ends and Russia doesn't implode.

Stop probing unless you want to ask me in CR. I'll gladly answer you there.

"peace" talks may be bullshit?

 

the initial offer of negotiation (ca. 1day ago) were proposed in minsk and under the condition of ukr disarmament.  the more recent ones (i.e. from a few hours ago) seem to be at the border and without any preconditions.

If Russia is still aggressively attacking, I question the validity of any negotiation. Wouldn’t Russia’s starting negotiation be the “independence” of those 2 territories and the removal of the current Ukrainian govt? Actually that would seem to be the best Russia would offer.

basically give us exactly what we want and we will stop bombing.

Siege tactics are to just surround, cut off resources and access to resupply, and to then starve and dehydrate them out until they surrender. In a city this usually means mass starvation and death of the civilians bunkered down there.

what's with the sandboxing, territorial nonsense?  the guy's jacket starts with "ПO...", which is cyrilic  for "PO..." and Ukrainian for "Police".

it's a positive TX-related gesture.  why do you feel it needs to be political or CR?

This assumes that the psychopaths in question are capable of feeling shame. 
 

Would like to see it though
