You’re wrong. I can stand Roar, even when he gets upset. Yeah, Roar is being disingenuous and knows he is.

Filming POWs isn't quite the same as castrating them is it. The US and the UK forces abused POWs, does that make them the same as Russia? Russia is on another level. They've committed mass murder of civilians, kidnapped thousands of children yet Roar just can't help himself but try and paint Ukraine as equally the bad guys in this, its not even close.
Did you actually read that document? I just skimmed it and its nearly all Russian crimes. The POW sections mentions 2 incidents involving Ukrainian soldiers, one where some prisoners they had just taken were shot in the legs and tortured and another wounded Russian solider being killed. These kind of innocents will happen at the front line, our own soldiers have done the same in moments of anger and the Ukrainians have lots to be angry about. It then goes on to mention numerous crimes committed by Russia on a grand scale and not at the front but in camps, the kind of things you'd expect to read about in Nazi camps or ISIS camps. So Roar's "both sides are as bad as each other" is just his usual crap, the same rubbish he has come out with again and again regarding this war.

Don’t worry - Biden will level it up. Already talks about shortages patriot missiles.losing just 3 planes has had a very significant effect on Russian air offensive capabilities
Maintenance (or lack of) and/or barrel wear will likely have seen to a fair few as well by now.

Always the same inane replies with no contribution or even real opinion. Literally click your posts in this thread and read through them. Kind of ironic that you posted the below yesterday.

Yo, Who asked.

At least it is an opinion. There has been a marked increase in people just spouting off the same drivel about people being bots or wringing their hands like old housewives if anyone questions 1% of the narrative.
I'm quite open about my ambivalence on this topic with the exception of a few topics which make me a sad panda.
1) Cluster munitions or any other evil **** that is normalised by any side
2) Potential for escalation as I know it would do a 5bn of improvement to Birmingham and London if it was nuked but honestly would rather do without it.
3) The sheer amount of death and misery on both sides by poor swines and the glee at which people have celebrated death and destruction in this thread because it was done by "their" side.

Seeing as its a discussion forum I thought I would offer my own opinion. Especially when you have back to back replies basically saying the same thing, not sure you're in a position to be lecturing others.
So you're on the side of the attacked should just accept the loss?
Based on this post? Birmingham nuked nonsense?
Cluster munitions qith a sub 1% failure rate mean nothing in a rural landscape with what was it a cataloged 5+ mines per square meter, and artilary delivered mines? The uxo risk is laughable to make a point of.
If it helps though I'm not calling roar a bot we've been on here for a decade plus each. The ***** the 1% though? Hells angels elites?

Definitely not. I think it's admirable that people for their homeland and I certainly support a party in the face of barbaric aggression as is the case here. Goes without saying.
I am also pretty sure there is a red line for support which will lead to an escalation in this war towards something bigger. No idea what is is but it's not impossible to imagine it happening hence why I am more cautious as people are ******* stupid once they have "face to lose" by backing down.
As for cluster munitions on the surface I don't really care about it in a particular incidence, it's more that it was one of things that nearly the whole world agreed on as being universally bad things (no matter how effective they are!) and with this conflict has seen them normalised. I have zero doubt R&D has started again on such developments and we will see them used in future conflicts where the answer from the aggressor then will be "America said it was fine, why shouldn't WE use it".... Lets not forget the outrage in 2022 when early in the conflict Russia was accused of using such barbarous weapons.......and how they were rightly seen as pariahs. And yet now it's all fun and games.

Apologies if my text isn't clear, its 4am here and I am knackered after a night out and should be sleeping not texting.
It concerns me in that not being strongly prepared tends to make potential war with Russia that much more likely, even now. As those who've had deep professional foreign policy involvement or those like Kasparov with their political background have said many times though it somewhat stereotypical Russia only understands to exploit perceived weakness.
The will be some of pacifist bent, etc. celebrating and/or championing for the reduction of our military not comprehending, at least in the current climate, they are actually supporting an increased risk of conflict with the likes of Russia.

This thread can be really brilliant at times, I take great interest in this conflict and it can bring up a lot of interesting conversation about both current and new/emerging technologies/capabilities. Sadly it always seems to be the same names turning the thread into a big hot steaming pile of rubbish
There seems to be a lot of doom posting happening, in reference to potential future world scale conflicts. I would love to just dismiss this particular line of thinking but its something I have been actively thinking about for quite some time now. It feels like we are slowly creeping towards an inevitable conclusion which will be a global scale conflict in the coming 5-10+ years. I want it not to be true but the longer this goes on and the more we see Russia and its "allies" inciting flashpoints throughout the world. The more I feel the inevitable outcome will be reality.
