see, this looks like the tail end of a 300mm BM-30 Smerch rocket here

the Russians don't place much importance on Precision Guided Munitions at all

they don't have many, what ones they have are not that precise

they don't care about Collateral Damage

their motto is : "war is hell, so don't mess with us"

accurate is enough, they don't care about precise

area artillery bombardment is their preferred arm of decision

so a lot of civilians are getting killed here, way more than is being reported

that being said

it is not actually a war crime for the Russians to kill civilians now

because Ukraine has fully mobilized for war

it is arming the civilian population and ordering every man, woman & child to fight

at that point, the Russians can target anything that moves

lawfully, since the Ukrainian government has made its population a legitimate military target now

like I say, this Ukrainian government is fascistic

but who isn't fascistic right now ?

Biden is fascistic, Trudeau is fascistic, Bojo is fascistic

Australia is a nuthouse, New Zealand is loonie tunes, Canada is behaving like the Nazis

who are the rational actors ?

which countries are the adults in the room ?

who is going to step in here and prevent this from being World War Three kicking off ?

it's not just that this is rapidly descending into a Hobbesian doomsday war

it's the context in which it is happening

Western civilization has already collapsed

Covid has already made the whole world crazy

so that is the context how I see the brink of World War Three

there are no rational actors to step in and negotiate a halt to this

we were already in the Molotov Ribbentrop Pact paradigm from the 1930s before this even kicked off

now we got a war going, right out of the 1940's

this does have an outbreak of a World War vibe to it

and the Pentagon is a shambles

not only is the National Command Authority literally cuckoo bananas with Biden & Harris at the top

not only is the mainstream media & CIA running a fascist shadow government

but the Pentagon is the a fucking disaster area

the shit is hitting the fan, and it's the Woke Pentagon on duty when it does

fucking surreal

don't think that the debacle in Afghanistan didn't influence Putin in this

the Russians saw with that pathetic display

that the US military is literally crippled right now

broken down Woke Pentagon with Post Afghanistan Syndrome

the Russians know, America is totally dysfunctional right now, including the military

so if they were ever going to go, now would be the time to go, since America is paralyzed right now

funny thing is

since NATO thinks they are going to sanction Russia into submission ?

this is getting so big so fast

the Russian economy could end up booming

just by emergency war production alone
