I don't disagree, however not everything can be seen from the prism of PR. Athletes who refuse to shake the hand of a Russian mostly do so on moral or emotional grounds, or for the same reasons that I stated above and why I also consider it disgusting to shake the hand of a Russian. Personally...

The Russian public should be treated similarly to the German public post-WWII. By default everyone is assumed guilty, and inaction is also guilt. This stance is furthered by the fact that even now polling shows that the majority of Russian continue to support Putin, and the majority certainly...

The fencing federation is discussing revising the rules of handshake for the future, but Olya Harlan is already disqualified from the World Cup. In the meantime, the Olympic Committee has issued Harlan an automatic qualification to participate in the 2024 Olympics. Basically the Fencing...

It has not been cancelled yet, the Ukrainian is currently still disqualified for refusing a "handshake" with the Russian.

Pretty sure that man is Russian.

Yup. At the start of the counter-offensive Ukraine had 199 Bradleys. According to Oryx, 27 have been destroyed. Yet as a result of additional packages from the US Ukraine's total only increased, now at 316.

New aid package from US: Additional munitions for Patriot air defense systems; AIM-7 missiles for air defense; Stinger anti-aircraft systems; Additional ammunition for High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS); 31 155mm Howitzers; 155mm artillery rounds, including DPICM, and 105mm...

This is a common misconception, that Russian power defeated Nazism and drawing a parallel to today. It rests on numerous fallacies: 1. Russia was part of the much larger Soviet Union. In the 1937 Soviet census the population of the USSR was 162 million, of which: Russia: 103 967 924 Ukraine: 28...

US military aid is just 5.6% of US defense yearly spending. This war provides an excellent opportunity for the US to erode Russia’s military, with no boots on the ground and little risk to US lives. Spending 5.6% of its defense budget to destroy Russia’s military capability for years to come is...

KYIV, Ukraine — For Ukraine’s counteroffensive to progress faster, Gen. Valery Zaluzhny, the top officer in Ukraine’s armed forces, says he needs more — of every weapon. And he is telling anyone who will listen, including his American counterpart, Gen. Mark A. Milley, as recently as Wednesday...

There have only been rumors of Shoigu or Gerasimov being replaced soon, but there's little evidence of it. Surovikin meanwhile was an ally of Prigozhin (even before the attempted coup).

It's not a rumor, I saw the video. It was closer to slitting the throat of the Wagner fighter rather than cutting his head off, but yea. And this was already after Putin declared amnesty for Wagner fighters. Russia is a failed state of rival warlords.

If Ukrainians were pushed back to the starting position the internet would be flooded today with Russians posting pictures of destroyed Ukrainian hardware and corpses.

I don't think he's going to be able to capture leadership, but he will became a valuable asset to anyone looking to lead. Prigozhin has a loyal army, a recognizable name, and assets that will provide him revenue in Africa, but he remains a tainted product. He served nine years in prison and is...

Prigozhin started as Putin's pet project but is now building a faction of his own. He avoids criticizing Putin directly, but instead attacks the Russian Ministry of Defense, specific leaders (Shoigu, Gerasimov) and laments about the overall state of Russia's military. He has been testing what...

Killing or capturing leaders of Al-Qaeda, Cartels, etc. is not supposed to affect motivation, it's supposed to affect the organization's ability to function. US and others preference for targeting leaders, as you yourself admitted, is evidence of learning that targeted operations are more...

We can conclude with very high certainty that the firebombing of Tokyo and other cities did not break Japanese resolve, based on the timeline and other factors. We can also conclude with high certainty that Hiroshima did not break Japanese resolve, as Japanese leadership intended to continue...
