  2. What buffer zone lol that would require a crap ton more land…

  3. STFU, Pookie. No one cares what you sez. Ти Чорт !!

  4. Imagine being grinded to a pile of meat, just the cuase being part of a buffer.

    And no, they failed once again while the defenders and liberators of Ukraine and the free world, suceeded. That turd of a despot in ruzzia will be remembered by the one that made the federation of ruzzia terrorism to crumble, while the people in that state still won’t care and/or are clueless what happen.

  5. Do you guys hear that?

    It’s the sound of goalposts moving.

  6. Russia has plenty of land within which to create all the buffer zones it wants. Ukraine never attacked Russia so why did they need a buffer zone in the first place. More gaslighting from the Kremlin, and blatant lies. It’s not about a buffer zone, it’s about Putin wanting to add a city.

  7. Putin screwed it up yet again. The average armchair general on this forum could do a better job.

    Due to the US stopping aid for several months, the Ukrainian army was undersupplied. The defense lines have more holes than Swiss cheese. Despite being warned by the UK MOD, the defense was woefully unprepared. The Ukrainians have still not carried out a full mobilization – resulting in an army undermanned.

    Due to the US stopping aid for several months, Putin was able to build up a massive force of at least 50K troops. A feint attack towards Kharkiv followed by a massive focused Sumy attack would have likely broken through the lines and potentially – even likely – ending the war.

    Instead he REPEATED exactly the same stupid ‘strategy’ the last time he attacked the big cities of Kyiv and Kharkiv – attack everywhere with everything all at once. And just to add to his folly he dispersed his force – including sending a large force to Belarus.

    Thank god he’s such a military incompetent or the war would have been lost long ago. Instead with the aid from the US and Europe arriving in ever increasing and with the f-16s on the way, the writing is on the wall for the Russian Empire. To ensure victory full mobilization will be needed – sooner rather than later.

    I look forward to Putin’s idiotic regime eventually collapsing and the Russian people exacting their revenge on the imbecile. I predict this will happen towards the end of next year or around the start of the following year.

  8. >**putin says offensive aims to create buffer zone**

    “He just said it’s to create a buffer zone. I will say this: I don’t see any reason why it wouldn’t be.”

    Can you guess the reference? Sorry, no prizes….

  9. How does this all work? How many more meat waves and Soviet vehicles wrecked before Ukraine can attempt another push back. Also, Ukraines defence seems to be ALOT scarier for the orcs then I thought. How do they even hope to get past it with modern shit absolutely eradicating them? Where is Ukraine likely to break if it does? I assume whatever poor Russians do break through will fuck the selves then reinforcement of that area will happen but? Yea I’m lost is alll. Seems like it’s just been a trench stalemate with minimal Russian gains
