Russia may already be in default, Moody's says

The DoD is concluding that Ukraine did hit the cruiser with two Neptune cruise missiles.

I trust them as much as I do the Russians. Or the Ukrainians for that matter.

Inching closer and closer to WWIII.

Imagine losing a war so bad you have to beg Khazakstan for help

Pretty detailed analysis of the incident. Points out the Ukrainians posted to multiple platforms very early on about hitting it with missles. If they didn't strike it, how could they have known that quickly it was on fire when it was well off the coast.

MOSKVA DOWN: Did Ukraine Really Sink the Pride of Russia's Black Sea Fleet? (UPDATE: IT SANK)

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

Lots of second hand accounts of Russia strategic bombers flying into Ukraine rn,

 

[landscapingvol]

That’s a relief, I was thinking there for a moment that they had already invaded Ukraine but since war has never been declared this is a step in the right direction. It’s a good thing we never declared war in Vietnam or it could have gotten ugly.

So did most of you buy the lie that the Russian warship was sunk by a Ukrainianian missle?

Here's the thing though, it might actually be less embarrassing if the Ukrainian's did it then losing the entire ship during a storm.

Then you haven’t been paying attention.

There is a difference between healthy skepticism and a conspiratorial level of cynicism.

 

[Hunerwadel]

But..but Russia said the sinking of the Moskva was caused by some jackass smoking in the ammo hold.

Lie to me once shame on you, lie to me thousands of times……

I know right? Ukraine didn’t sink our flagship however we’re declaring war on Ukraine because they claimed they sunk our flagship. Dumbasses…

Just poking in, and amazed that so many people in here have no faith whatsoever in the DoD, CIA, FBI, or any US agency, and some seem to place more faith in russian sources.

Regardless of politics, or a particular administration, if given the choice between russian news and government sources, and the US counterparts, I am going to put trust in the US institutions every time. Not blind faith, but a baseline of basic trust.

The russians are our adversary, hopefully a peaceful adversary, but an adversary nonetheless. I cannot fathom, again regardless of politics or administration, being in favor of their success invading a third party nation without any provocation or justification. I understand, and share, the immense reluctance to directly involve ourselves, but I am 100% behind Ukraine in this conflict, and cannot fathom why anyone with pro-US outlook would not be.

We live in interesting times.

I’m hoping the Ukrainians kick the dog crap out of Russia but I’m still highly skeptical to the point of no trust in anything our government puts out.

When did that start??

We've seen what our justice does. They're no better than the kgb. They just haven't done it as long

 

[hog88]

January 1992 but October 1993 was confirmation.

You must be from the government?

 

[allvol123]

Agreed. And I would rather stay out of a nuke throwing contest.

What do you think Hitler would have done with the walls closing in on him knowing the gig was up and a nuclear arsenal at his disposal?

 

[MontyPython]

You would probably believe anything that’s reported as long as it’s against Russia. What a sheep. You and the other mouth breathers have actually bought the media kool aid. A tweet that says Ukraine is doing well? It’s 100% accurate without question. A tweet that contradicts that? It’s 100% propaganda without question. Everything Russia puts out is propaganda while the equally corrupt Ukraine is nothing but truth. Lol.

Meanwhile NATO and our worthless government continue to fuel this fire. Biden continues to send more aid and money to a corrupt government. Buts it’s cool right? And how about those sanctions huh? Man they were gonna sink Russia. Lol. Yeah how did that work out? Meanwhile innocent citizens around the world are suffering because of the idiotic EU and US who feel like it’s their job to police the world.

WASHINGTON—The U.S. confirmed the flagship of Russia’s Black Sea fleet was struck and sunk by a pair of Ukrainian missiles, a military feat seen as a significant blow to Moscow’s Ukraine campaign.

Ohhhh @BigOrangeTrain ... I'm so sad and sorry that Russia losing hurts you so. Hang in there, little feller!




P.S. Captain of sunk Russian warship Moskva ‘killed in explosion’, says Ukraine.
