can someone explain to me why the nazis can’t advance further? 🤣
the russians are good at one particular thing. destroy their own cities. i am really curious to see where these 300 000 refugees from the kursk region will go. and what will happen if kyiv decides to repeat this scenario over and over again, because this is a fairly effective strategy. grab russian land for free and surprise putin, kill as many soldiers and civilians as possible, then let the russians destroy their own cities with heavy bombing and artillery.
and i’m quite sure that all those who ended up with their houses bombed and burned down and lost everything will be very excited to re-elect putin and his clique of incompetent generals who lead the famous red army from trouble to misery and vice versa.
your ass is burning, try with vaselin nex time :d
when the globalist owned bank forecloses your house because they replaced you with an illegal alien at work while your children were eaten by them you my find yourself paying for a lot more than you think and have a little more understanding of why russia must fight.
new housing blocks in mariupul were built within 2 weeks after the liberation. and remember soon the frontlines will be in ukrainian speaking areas and the rebuilding there will take 20 years because of corruption and lack of workers🤡
oh, i heard a completely different story, about 30 generals arrested for “corruption”, including stealing food rations from russian soldiers and embezzling money intended for the reconstruction of destroyed cities. and that was just the tip of the iceberg.
israel just dealt a massive blow to a russian base in syria…heheheh
luv my amerikunt mulatto liars that come to sf—they look for other senile homosexuals–crocy snodumb etc
the tipping point is reached where nato cannot send in enough reserves and equipment to hold the lines. soon the occupied areas of the invaders will crumble and the mass surrenders will begin✌️🫶👍
