    I just hope this doesn't go into Balkan war atrocities towards civilians. I know right? He was just nut job with really questionable ideas that have very little influence to the government and last I heard it is mostly Russian Skinheads he have influence over. Damn, he rarely went into news...

    Maybe they realize that it might harm European support for the war since it was not Dugin himself was killed but his daughter instead. Also they might expect that Putin himself is ruthless enough to capitalize Dugin's daughters death to gain more local support for the war which might be bad for...

    I might staunchly disagree with a lot of his ideas but I don't wish him dead or any harm. Losing family members no matter how estranged the relationship is hard. Yeah, there is a lot of conflicting information at the moment since last I heard was that forensics have no results yet but they have...

    Huh? There seems to be an assassination attempt against Dugin with his daughter a collateral casualty.

    Have you check their bank accounts? It is usually the best idea when your politicians start acting shitter than normal. I mean most politicians are addicted to short term gains and "vote winners" decision rather than long term health of the country.

    If Germany is going to wean itself off of Russian NG what are chances they are going back to Coal liquification or other Synthetic fuels? Or are they planning on just making another middleman and pretend that it isn't Russian NG? Also, I stopped playing attention to this conflict in favor of my...

    Maybe this could have been avoided if Ukraine adopted Finland's fig leaf neutrality instead of shouting loudly about joining NATO without first securing a "Notarized Written Guarantees" in triplicate from USA. I'm seriously flabbergasted about the sheer fatuity the Ukrainian government decision...

    Exactly, I was wondering if he was testing the American public's opinion about another foreign military adventure or he is genuinely wanted a direct American troops involvement in Ukraine. This seems to be a pointless escalation at the moment since the most pragmatic NATO could do for Ukraine is...

    Yeah, there is a lot of political victory if the manage to mop up Azov battalion. I believe they would push towards Dnipropetrovska towards Dnieper river after this or reinforce the Kharkiv offensive. There was a reason I was skeptical about the possibility of a Russian invasion in earlier SB...

    Makes sense, looking at the map there seems to be also a major railway connection in Mariupol so if the Russian manage to pacify the port area, they can possibly ease their supply situation. I thought they would focus more in Kherson and Mykolayiv since it would increase the security of Crimea.

    Yes, I agree but since I live just around 100+ km from Marawi it is the closest frame of reference I have of this War. I literally have those tabs from wikipedia about those battles ATM because my other reference is WWII and a book about the Battle of Kursk. None taken. I'm just morbidly...
