Russian lawmakers authorize Putin to use military force outside the country

[Dartz]

Shit what happened while I was -


--Ukraine has gained more armoured vehicles from Russia than it has lost through all causes (By one measure)

--Russia is parading long, loving drone footage of a Ukrainian army base it capture early in the war as a counter.

--Russia propeganda, outside Russia, is still playing catch up

--Some News sources reveal Zalensky has secretely fled to Poland

--Zalensky replies from incredibly convincing and accurate set of his Kyiv office that, no, he hasn't.

--Be Like Ukraine has now entered the lexicon of company management

--It is suspected this is the first true success of Putin's troll army -- nothing will make people hate Ukraine more.

--Russia launches more air-attacks - someone told the airforce to get their finger out

--And promptly loose more aircraft. Including some more Frogfeet, a couple of Fullbacks, and a pilot 'good enough' to have been photographed with Assad a few years back

--One Mi-35 pilot sees the missile coming, then goes in in flames. \

--More videos of VDV casualties - some who didn't have a chance to leave their vehicles. Others, who did - but didn't get far.

--Russians are now escorting convoys with choppers - which may work.

--Has Ukraine retaken Kharkiv?

--Is Zaporizhizia NPP back in Ukrainian control? One reactor might still be on.

--Sumy is utterly cut off and has gone dark. This does not bode well

--Isreal is trying to broker peace talks --- on the Sabbath

--Zalensky is crying out for a no-fly zone

--Europe will not impliment one

--Putin announced that anyone enforcing a no-fly zone will be counted as a belligerant

--Well d'uh says anyone who knows what a No-Fly Zone is. How would it be enforced?

--Putin also announces that current sanctions are tantamount to a declaration of war

--And Calls on Supplies of arms to end.

--Microsoft pulls out of Russia - the first true Russian success of the conflict.

--Paypal pulls out. Russian Furryporn artists loose a major source of income.

--Pornhub pulled out early. But I am just now late to making that joke

--Workers in Russia are going unpaid. They are now going on strike.

--The Russian authorities are doubling down on the authoritarianism.

--The special financial implimentations are having the desired effect. It is hard to be Russia

--Undesired effects on food, fertiliser and fuel prices may follow soon. One hopes Russia cracks before the middle-east goes hungry

--This, of course, also fits the Green Agenda. Fucking 2 Euro petrol and they still won't drop the excise taxes, the pricks.

--Flights out of Russia are taking weird routes to avoid closed airspace.

--Flights that used to overfly Russia are now going to the old polar route. Anchorage is the true winner in all this.

--American and the EU are playing each other's roles. The EU is piling on the sanctions, throwing ALL THE WEAPONS while America is haring intelligence, talking to people, putting a few sanctions on and shipping weapons on the quiet.

-Beware the worm that's turned. Will Europe return to its 8 decade slumber after this?

--2 Republicans share screenshots of a zoom call with Zelensky. Maybe they aren't supposed to do that...

--The level of talk-show trash on Facebook has dropped like a stone since Russia got axed. Could they all have been useful idiots?

--Belarus, which should've joined the fighting a few days ago hasn't

--The Belorussian army - the rank and file - would supposedly refuse the orders and frag their officers.

--Lukashenko is now, more than ever, clearly a human toad. And his regime may have a limited life

--Real Warfare sounds like teenagers on Xbox live. "Pederast! Bitch! Give up and Die! Fucking cum-filled condom"

--Ukraine thinlks it can win the war. Perhaps, by thinking it, repeating it, and getting the world at large to believe it's possible, they may enable the circumstances to make it so.

--Russia has already lost.

--Did the FSB really leak the routes of the Chechen saboteurs to Ukraine to prevent a horroshow?

--Denis Kireev, a member of the Ukrain negotiating team, shot dead for High Treason after resisting arrest. (He may have been a double agent)

--Putin inadvertently acknowledges Ukraines right to exist when he threatens Ukraines statehood if it continues resisting.

--Women everywhere will recognise that logic.
