Gentlemen,
Did none of you watch "Foreign Correspondent," the other evening? We were told that Russian media propaganda used to be extreme, now its verging on insane. But a group of exiled journalists are fighting back. Since Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, almost all independent media has been banned, blocked and/or declassed "foreign agents". All others are subject to military censorship. All previously owned independent TV channels are banned from broadcasting except for cable entertainment channels. The Russian voice of "Euronews" was suspended. The situation in Russia is dire. To find out the truth of what's going on folks - read the following link: http://abc.net.au/news/2023-02-23/russia-information-war-latvia-exiles-media-tv-rain/101956932 Posted by Foxy, Tuesday, 28 February 2023 1:53:31 PM

Dear Ttbn,
«Ukraine is being destroyed - for what?» For you and me. Had "that failed comedian" and the Ukrainian people not shown such courage and sacrifice, then very soon we, our children and our grandchildren would be enslaved to the Chinese Xi dynasty. There is nothing to celebrate about the first birthday of this world war and yes, humanity could possibly be extinct by its second birthday, but the least we can do is to thank these heroes at the front who give us all they have.

On the first anniversary of this horrible war, is there any other kind, I convey my hope for peace. I don't support Russia or Ukraine, Putin or Zelensky, but support the innocent people from both sides who are suffering because of this war.

Every day that Russia fights Russia becomes a little weaker. It is using human waves of untrained mobilized troops and while gaining a tiny amount of territory it comes at a staggering loss of about 25000 men killed a month 150 tanks lost, and many other vehicles aircraft etc that cannot be replaced.
"Russia has just one tank factory, which can produce around 20 new tanks every month. Demand for tanks is now outstripping production by a factor of ten, according to The Economist. Russia is losing around 150 tanks a month in Ukraine and is becoming reliant on refurbished vehicles. " (normally T62s) Ukraine is getting nearly 600 tanks of which about 300 are state-of-the-art. The other 300 are Leopard 1's with thinner armour but with a highly accurate gun that can kill a T72 Meanwhile the Russian economy is circling the drain.
