Ukraine sinks Moskva
 
1 Attachment(s)
Reports from Ukraine last night state they struck the Russian Navy's Black Sea Flagship, Moskva, a Slava Class Cruiser, with two indigenous Neptun that were just fielded. Scuttlebutt is they used a Bayraktar drone to lure Mockva's defense systems and hit the cruiser where it can't see.

I suspect they launched a lot more than 2 Neptun but two made it through Mockva's point defenses. A Slava class cruiser is roughly equivalent to an Arleigh Burke Class Destroyer.

RU media and official sources state ship was lost in the Black Sea due to fire.

UA claims they hit it with two Anti-Ship missiles.

RU states fire onboard exploded ordinance.

Both could be true.

Crew close to 500.

This was the ship that fired on the Ukranians at Snake Island very fist days of war.

I do not make the meme, I just steal them from elsewhere.

All kidding aside, this may be the largest naval loss of life since General Belgrano, and some information I am seeing it may exceed that.

The fact that Russia is disintegrating before us in a conventional sense makes it even more dangerous.

Who knows at this point what is true and prob. won't change the course of the war but will hurt the morale of the Russians.

wdmso 04-14-2022 07:42 AM

I was. Wondering if Ukraine was pressing attacks while the Russians were re position I guess we know the answer and not even with British anti ship missiles

John’s concerns of the Russian response going off. The rails is correct and the same concerns of Nato .. they. The Russians just claimed Transportation in nato air space were legitimate targets.

that is a very, very crucial part of the calculus here. He may well not give a sh*t about anything, and may be much more dangerous if he feels he’s backed into a corner with nothing to lose, than he is right now.

If RU shoots down NATO aircraft over NATO territory it is probably the switch getting flipped. NATO might be able to resist one downed aircraft, but two and everything changes. If NATO rail systems are attacked on NATO soil, then yes, it is on.

I saw video 2 days ago of older NATO equipment (not troops) being moved into UA via rail - but it was not confirmed.

With Sweden saying yes to NATO membership (does not mean all NATO members will concur, and they have to) and Finland signalling they are leaning towards NATO, things might get more spicy yet still.

It’s starting to feel like Trump is in charge of the Russian Navy.

Had 44,000 votes in Georgia, Arizona, and Wisconsin swung the other way, Zelensky would probably at this moment be in exile, in a Russian prison, or dead.

I saw you had posted in here and was wondering how you would tie this into Trump, then I thought no, you can't be that preoccupied with him. No sane person is that captured by someone, yet here we are. I am curious if you need to seek help.

That really begs the question, why didn't that happen during the 4 years Trump was POTUS?

I heard for Easter weekend he’s working on exposing Trump’s connections to the crucifixion of Christ

Upon hearing the fate of Russian navy's flagship, the Moskva on the Black Sea, the Republican party of Texas has offered to send a 'tremendous' Trump Boat Parade to join the Moskva. This victory flotilla will be led to the bottom by their flagship the SS Giuliani.

So Pete, what is your honest opinion of Biden's mental condition?


Couldn't be better?

No problems?
Marginal?
Seriously degraded?

I’m not panicked over it.
There’s actually a procedure in our system of government to replace a “failing” President, so perhaps some will get their wish for a President Harris.
Say Biden, like Reagan has some symptoms of one or another aging disease.
But he’s not a malignant narcissist, is a good man with a great deal of experience making our political system work and he along with his administration has done a good job coordinating the free worlds effort to assist Ukraine.
He and his administration had and have to deal with more issues than any President in recent history.
Most all of them were inherited from previous administrations.
We will see what happens and eventually history will judge him.

since he helped the syrians kill russians, i’d say he’s probably in the side of ukraine, but i wouldn’t bet on it.

are you aware that he’s not a government official right now?

So no comment? On What the current front runner in the GOP position is on Ukraine. After his statement ….

Or are you suggesting he’s not the front runner or he’s holding another rally in Nebraska next week.

I am sure the stands will be filled with suffers of TDS.

Is that your logic he’s not a government official. Is Hunter?

Are you denying he’s currently the front runner in 2024 ? Has he stated he wasn’t running? So until he is committed to not running. His comments about Ukraine and US policy are all legitimate to be questioned.

If you notice Ron hasn’t said boo about Ukraine.. his moneys on the culture war nonsense

i don’t talk about hunter all day, every day. i bring it up when it’s relevant. you. any stop talking about trump. That is why TDFs post was hysterical and on point.

hunters dad is a public servant in case you didn’t know, and there’s obviously a chance he’s in it up to his neck. Biden claimed he never once spoke to Bunter about business, when there’s all kinds of evidence that can’t be true, in addition to it being laughable just on its face.

the culture war is nonsense. then why flag concerned parents as domestic terrorists?

i posted video of a school board member admitting that language in a required reading book isn’t appropriate for students. and you still can’t admit that those parents have a point even in that case.

It’s not a winning issue for democrats, therefore it must be dismissed as nonsense.

is concern for what’s happening at the border, nonsense? or concern over crime? or concern over inflation?

one disaster after another. And to top it all off, the real possibility of a recession now.

None of it is all Biden’s fault (though most of the crime surge is probably caused by liberal stupidity which he agrees with). But he isn’t helping any of it. All he can do is what you do all day here, deny and shift blame to republicans. America isn’t buying it. That’s what’s nonsense.
