What a grandiose comment.
As long as humans engage in politics and form collective groups, creating borders and then countries, wars and conflict will be a part of life.
For wars to be non-existent, borders must cease to exist. Different groups and ethnicity must abandon their identities. Countries must abandon all ambitions and dis-formed. All human species must be homogeneous.
For this war, the group of humans who identify as Russia feel threatened by another group--US/NATO--and their continued intrusion near them. Because they are weak economically and can't use that as influence to prevent this intrusion, they are using war to answer their problem. This war was inevitable the moment that 2014 revolution happened.
There are many more wars heading towards the human species in the future. Some predictable so.
All i see so far are flights of surveillance aircrafts etc.. and people passing image of SAR as heat signature or fire or pushing ARMA III made footage as real.
Probably the main event of the day although if the stories about a Ukrainian attempt to storm Snake Island are true, then that would count as a solid story number two. Not far behind the Amphibious operation to take the elevated terrain along the coast of the Azovstal plant.
Actually quite a bit has happened today. Anything new from the Izyum front?
I don't know about storming story (it was most likely made up) but for sure they used Su-27 to attack this island today and destroyed whatever was left after earlier TB2 strikes. It's documented. It seems like they had eliminated it for now and it's only a rock sitting in the sea.
Not much movements in Izyum front for the last few days. It would take Russia weeks to advance and encircle Slovyansk. Slovyansk and its surrounding are heavily fortified.
Apparently the attack on Snake Island failed and one of the Ukrainian boats was sunk
The War Is Getting More Dangerous for America, and Biden Knows It
ByRead this! Absolutely on topic!
If his sources were true, which I believe they likely were, that would be counted as a de-escalation signal. That would further validate my thesis on this war.
I'm particularly amused by how they managed to delude themselves into thinking that China not sending weapons to Russia is an US foreign policy success and not the fact that Russia hasn't probably really asked for any...
