It’s difficult to defend the idea that Biden has been trying to end the genocide. He’s had that power from day 1. If you give Israel a bullet, you have solid awareness that there is a good chance it will be used against a non-combatant. That’s hard reality. If Biden was not supportive of genocide he would place an embargo on the weapons being poured into the massacre. He also wouldn’t sanction the ICC when they attempted to call out the primary actors in the genocide. He has given enabling support to the campaign in multiple ways.

Biden is not a good man as he is portrayed, he is complex obviously, but the reality is that Hitler still petted his dog and was nice to his friends and family. Biden should be joining Netanyahu at the Hague, not sabotaging democracy by being virtually un-electable while at the same time working to make it even more obvious that the international order is only there to punish certain war criminals.

Anyway, I think the take is pretty on point.

It is huge, they aren’t shit by any stretch. They can be defeated through tactics and technology, just like western defense systems. If there is an expectation of operating F-16 and Mirage 2000 in the combat area, these air defences need to be degraded. A SCALP missile streaking along at 75M altitude, supported by MALD electronic decoys, under the cover of 20-30 drones, with a few Neptune cruise missiles to soak up interceptors is far more likely to defeat an S-400 battery than a two-ship of F-16 operating within 80km of the front.

Ghostrider, kill confirmed.

Was he ok?

It is tedious AF to have the enemy on the allied council.

Hey man, nice shot.

The airborne radar is very huge. Please please let’s follow up with Gripen and Meteor. Nothing like watching orcs eat missiles at 200km. (Wishful thinking but still)

Just keeping my fingers crossed for Gripens slinging Meteors at flying orcs.

Turns out the Lada MRAP isn’t quite as well protected as the Senator.

More than 1000 have been supplied to Ukraine, they can soak some vehicle losses. That’s what they’re built for.

Nice, you fixed it Ivan!

Russia has made a lot of arguments about history and security to justify the invasion of Ukraine. Personally, I don’t think they have a leg to stand on.

That whole pack of orcs scurrying clear was too bad, that would have been a nice tally!

NATO really needs a revision to allow it to remove a member.

The crab, damn.

Sometimes even old enemies can be brought together by the discovery of what they have in common as opposed to what divides them. Violent atrocities against civilians for example.

It’s perfectly reasonable for PC gamers who use the Steam platform, which provides copy protection, to be annoyed by having to sign onto services they otherwise would never use. There is no purpose to it aside from marketing and data collection.

Secretly supplied is an interesting take. The Ukrainians officially released video of them launching ATACMS hours after the airbase in Crimea was hit. I’m some jackass on the internet and had heard from multiple sources that the system was arriving. Poor headlines aside, definitely a good system, though it doesn’t increase strike range over Scalp/Stormshadow, it just adds another way to hit. That’s handy, I’m sure the numbers will be tiny though, it’s pretty overpriced for what it is.

Wait, I though genocide was hip again. Confusing.

It is so damaging to this type of pressure for the US to continue supporting Israel regardless of the frequency and severity of their crimes against humanity. It lets Chinese officials know that it’s coldy related to spheres of influence, morals and legality aren’t a factor. It’s not surprising they act as such.
