"The 50 countries supporting Ukraine can easily outproduce Russia."

You're as delusional as Zelensky himself, didn't he just ask for 50 Patriot batteries?
- The US has supplied all they are going to for your counteroffensive which is likely to fail to make any significant gains.

"Russia is losing this war"
- I guess that's why Ukraine lost an entire army for nothing trying to defend Bakhmut.
What exactly are you smoking SM, you must be on the heavy stuff.
Where are you going to replace 500K+ Ukrainian war casualties?

"I believe that the Russian separatists are going to hold a referendum in Belgorod to secede from Russia."
- What you believe isn't important, they're likely to all get arrested or shot.
I wish them good luck, they'll certainly need it.

They don't want Peace in Ukraine, they want Russia.
Ukraine refuses all peace plans but "Zelensky's"

I see Ukraine's big counter offensive is going well, as expected.

Hi AC,

Russia just destroyed a major dam. That is not the action of an army in control.

Hi Fester,
That's just what you 'believe' happened - according to Ukraine.
- It's funny how western citizens just take what they're told to be a certified fact.

From what I hear it was a Ukrainian MLRS, but who knows.
Ukraine has more to gain from this than Russia.
I also hear 8 Leopard tanks were destroyed in a matter of hours.

Ukraine needed a false flag to garner a little more outrage towards Russia, due to their failing counteroffensive and poor outlook for the war.

You forget that Russia left Kherson for this exact reason.
It risks losing the water supplies for Crimea, as well as the IAEA moving to take control and kick Russia out of the ZNPP on behalf of the West.
Also it may make a Russian offensive on the western bank of the Dnieper that much harder, and there's also a lot of Russian defensive positions in Kherson which have now been destroyed, not to mention a lower water level upstream which may make it easier to cross.
And all this at the exact time of Ukrainian counter offensive?
It's going to be a blame game for a few days, in any case.
- What matters is how each side adapts to the new situation, it's a lot of water.

AC,

The portion of the dam wall under Russian control was the part destroyed, flooding the valley protects Russia from a Ukrainian attack. This was yet another Russian war crime.

Once again AC posts Russian propaganda. Ukraine hasn't yet deployed its leopard tanks and the photo of the "destroyed tank" was farm equipment. This is like Russia's claim to have destroyed 400% of Ukraine's himars systems or 200% of its aircraft.

Russia is getting hammered on every front and is retreating in Belgorod, Bakhmut, and now in Zaphorizia.

The tide has turned and the Russians are petrified.
