"How many Orcs can I kill today?
Too many to count, don't get in my way
I shoot a mofo in the throat with my bow
Tomahawk chop is my death blow!"
And you know he means it.
They are doing very well striking the oil infrastructure with homegrown solutions, so they would actually want the tomahawk for the tougher military targets, like command and control, airfields, supply bunkers etc.
Airstrip strikes are a waste of money. They are quick and cheap to repair.
You're confusing "Airfield" and "Runway". One is a strip of asphalt/concrete, the other is a giant collection of expensive stuff like planes, fueling facilities, ammo stores, workshops, etc etc.
Yes.
Yes.
They are quick and cheap to repair.
well, make up your mind. are they quick and cheap or filled with expensive stuff?
That depends on exactly what you hit. Some things are quick and cheap, some things are expensive and slow. They are often located near each other.
ukraine seems to be doing a pretty good job on the accuracy front so far. of course, to be fair it kinda helps when they can just drive truckloads of drones up to the target inside russia.
I did confuse the landing strip with the whole installation hangar and all.
fair enough
Fuck Russia.
No see. Gorbachov bla bla and then Yeltsin lol.
Therfore russia not bad.
Also westoid fuck you.
But yeah, fuck em.
I think he should continue using other weapons too. I doubt there are enough tomahawks to only use them.
Edit: maybe he is only personally going to use tomahawks now. This makes more sense. Iβd only use the best too if I was at the top.
Escalation? YOU are the ones who for the past 3 years have been trying to destroy Ukraine. What should have been a 2 week "special military operation" has now become a 3 year embarassment, and total collapse of your military, your countrys resources, and your young male population for generations to come. Essentially putin, YOU have now gone down in history as russias biggest embarassment. You crippled your own country. And the worst part (for you) is that all of this is because you wanted a lasting legacy. And if you had just done nothing, you'd have gone down as the guy who rebuilt russias economy after the post cold war fallout years. If you just did nothing, you would be in a decent position today. And the rest of the world would still think your military is far stronger than it is/was.
Instead, you pulled back the curtain, showed the whole world how weak you are. You lashed out, issued empty threats, had no way to follow through with your threats, and now you expect us to believe you have the balls to nuke anyone?
You nuke Ukraine, or anyone for that matter, and ALL countries reign down upon you. That nuke would instantly be the end of russia, which has stood for over 1000 years. You would be the cause of it's permanent end.
Then again, you ARE known to be very stupid, and make the dumbest choices.
Loser.
Despite this mad truth, it's still not too late. GTFO of Ukraine, return all people you stole, submit to international criminal courts, pay reparations. Peace can be profitable, everyone will eventually drop sanctions; your country can not just survive but thrive!
I'm not sure Putin is on Lemmy.
Lots of lackeys are
nah, those aren't his lackeys. those are just useful idiots with yellow fever cosplaying as commies because they like the outfits.
WELL HE'S NOT ON MYSPACE!!! (joking)
Kremlin is a military target right?
Nope, politicians are not military targets. And that makes sense. Nobody would ever talk and try to settle things diplomatically if they could be legally assassinated while doing so.
Also, you can't have a Nuremberg-style trial with the responsible people if you kill them. The military are following orders and doing what they are told (well, hopefully). The politicians are the ones with the highest responsibility for an invading army. An army serving the state won't invade unless politicians tell them to.
I'm sure the fact that politicians tend to come from wealthy backgrounds has no factor whatsoever...
What about Putin, who's not a politician but a dictator warlord?
All I'm hearing is "Yes, in fact it's one of the most important ones!"
No I would not consider it a military target, a top military building HQ could be considered a target but I would think the international community would deem the literal capital of the country a non-military target.
Hopefully we should see some flamingos doin stuff soon
You haven't been following the development of that "weapons platform" very closely, then. It's about as likely as Trump's plan for rare earth metals.
I mean yeah I haven't been following it that closely because I dont have the time or attention to follow more than the broad strokes of the war nowadays
But even still from what I've seen it looks more likely than Trump's ridiculous plan
A lot of what I do actively consume about Ukraine is from https://youtube.com/@perunau (great channel btw), and whatever randomly crosses my lemmy feed
EDIT:
Wait a sec, after having done a bit of quick searching, it looks like it's already confirmed to have been used a couple of times? And is actively in production? Why do you think it's not real?
Tbh most of those points are irrelevant or make no sense, and are easily refutable (Id go down the list but I really don't have the time rn, might do it this evening)
The only potentially valid one is the corruption stuff, but I'd have to look into it more.
Any other sources besides some random twitter guy?
I have a hankering for Swan Lake.
I bet the Triads are being totally normal about this lol
I strongly encourage them to do this. Ukraine's done a wonderful job of pressuring Russia to take a more hardline stance on the war and pushing them closer with China. But, "the last rep is the most important". This final push is required.
oh so do I. the only good authoritarian is a dead one, and putin is an authoritarian.
What is an authoritarian? I am trying to identify them so I can deal with the issue handedly. You seem like an expert on authoritarianism so it ought to be easy.
I think the tomahawks arriving shortly should point them out to you, help you get a firm grasp on what a good authoritarian looks like.
Nice try, guy who doesn't know what words mean or what's going on. You're in for a rough couple of years. Don't say nobody warned you.
it must be so tiring switching from playing the victim to playing the strong man. rest easy, comrade, your social credit score is high enough.
I think Ledger made the best reference no one listens to every time they see the "movie" (Hell, even both those last two do the nick). I didn't give anyone the consideration of meeting Chester's word skills so well, with such a low odds to do so while taking his label of dying in the same fashion. I finally, recently, did so just out of whim to see how "bad" and was revealed to that they did it as well as even Gary Webb.
It does take a true commitment to learn itself when, despite not lacking skill in math, not know how to do it in a language no one acknowledges, like GPG.
The short is roughly that peace is but part of a puzzle because Mani Mani was just a model asked for. I could easily go on for damn near ever, but I no one listens to the listener.
Incomprehensible.
I do understand. It does take a Necroscope to get that far, no joke.
