See what investigators are finding at attack site as Putin denies responsibility

At least 18 people are dead, dozens wounded and several missing after a Russian missile attack on a mall in the central Ukrainian city of Kremenchuk. CNN's Salma Abdelaziz was at the site of the strike where Ukrainian prosecutors and investigators are collecting evidence to prove what they say is another Russian war crime.

Recent attacks on pro-Russian officials in southern Ukraine indicate signs of growing resistance movement

US officials say a trio of assassination attempts targeting pro-Russian officials over the past two weeks suggests a burgeoning resistance movement against pro-Russian authorities occupying parts of southern Ukraine.

While it is just a few incidents isolated to the town of Kherson so far, US officials say the resistance could grow into a wider counterinsurgency that would pose a significant challenge to Russia's ability to control newly captured territory across Ukraine.

The Kremlin "faces rising partisan activity in southern Ukraine," Avril Haines, the director of national intelligence, said during a conference in Washington, DC, on Wednesday.

The US believes that Russia does not have enough forces in Kherson to effectively occupy and control the region, one US official said, especially after pulling forces from the area for the fight to the east in Donbas. Another US official told CNN that move may have provided Ukrainian partisans with a window in which to attack locally installed Russian officials.

Ukraine has also conducted limited counterattacks near Kherson, further straining Russian forces.

The region is critical to Russia's hold on Ukraine's Black Sea coast and controls access to the Crimean peninsula. It's unclear how many Russian forces are in or near Kherson, but an occupation against a hostile local population requires far more soldiers than a peaceful occupation of territory.

Russia's leaders have prioritized the military campaign at the expense of any semblance of government. "It's clearly not something they're able to invest in right now," one US official said.

Trio of assassination attempts

The first attack in Kherson occurred on June 16, when an explosion shattered the windows of a white Audi Q7 SUV. The vehicle was left seriously damaged, but the target of the attack survived. Eugeniy Sobolev, the pro-Russian head of the prison service in occupied Kherson, was hospitalized after the attack, according to Russian state news agency RIA Novosti.

It has not been an easy week for Russian President Vladimir Putin.

He took his first foreign trip since the invasion of Ukraine to shore up relations with troublesome Central Asian allies. He watched as NATO declared Moscow its main enemy and invited Russia's neighbors Sweden and Finland to join the alliance. And he was forced to deny that his troops had yet again attacked a civilian target in Ukraine.
https://apnews.com/article/russia-ukraine-black-sea-c4c78d32b899be4656

Countering a show of Western unity over Ukraine at a series of summits in Europe this week, Putin has sought to cast the moves by the U.S. and its allies as a proof of their hostile designs, and he vowed to press the offensive against Russia's neighbor, now in its fifth month.

Putin long has described NATO's expansion to Russia's borders as the top security threat to his country. When he sent troops into Ukraine on Feb. 24, he cited increasingly close military ties between Kyiv and the West as a key reason behind his action.

Russia's aggression against its neighbor has helped cement Western unity, with allies offering billions of dollars in weapons and aid to Kyiv and slamming Russia with unprecedented sanctions that froze its hard currency reserves, targeted oil and other key experts, and barred its planes from European skies.

The invasion also prompted NATO to deploy more troops and weapons into the territories of its members in Eastern Europe and encouraged Sweden and Finland to abandon their neutrality and seek NATO membership.

At its summit in Madrid on Wednesday, the alliance formally invited the two nations to join and declared Russia the “most significant and direct threat” to its members’ peace and security.

Putin, who visited Turkmenistan Wednesday to attend a Caspian Sea summit with three former Soviet nations and Iran, responded by saying that NATO's actions proved its anti-Russian focus while admitting his action helped Western allies cement their ranks.

It was Trump who agreed to withdraw from Afghanistan. Biden could have kept troops in, but the troops proved to Biden and the whole world that they are worthless, except at killing. How did they prove it? By killing the wrong family as the troops' last official act. Biden was smart to not let those idiotic troops stay in Afghanistan. And the President of Afghanistan proved himself to be a coward by fleeing even before the last American soldier had left the country.

Check my post history. It's the single thing I applauded him for. I specifically said at the time that it will be the one thing he can hang his hat on.

But it was all bullshit in retrospect. We were just pulling out to start this war in Russia. Meanwhile, we've already started sending troops back into the middle east with very little talk from the Media.

That had nothing to do with what you quoted, Second.

But while we're on the subject, yeah... fuck Ukraine and Coldplay.

I don't need to listen to Leftoid agenda driven "music" being played while I'm working on the hour, every hour, on the two stations I listen to while Coldplay cashes in on their virtue signalling.

That's what my cordless Bluetooth Ryobi radio that works with my power tool batteries is for. Commercial and Leftoid agenda free music.

They still play Stairway to Heaven too much in 2022. The only reason that anybody is going to remember People of the Pride a year from now is that the Leftoids are going to make everyone ceaselessly suffer through it in the media every June.

Kudos to Coldplay on the grift though. Pure genius.

Even if they didn't have 2 decades of well-received catalog to fall back on behind them, the royalties from this one song would be enough for every member's family to live for the rest of their lives I'm sure.

Those are great. Less than 500 troops? Not exactly going to scare anyone or be suddenly redeployed to destroy Russia. Not sure how that pertains.

Did you watch Jens Stoltenberg, NATO general secretary at his press conference from Madrid?

"MADRID (AP) — An unstable world could get even more dangerous if NATO does not remain strong and united, the head of the alliance said Thursday at the end of a summit where Western leaders labeled Russia “a direct threat” to the security of their nations.

During their three-day meeting in Madrid, NATO members confronted a geopolitical landscape marked by big-power competition and myriad threats, from cyberattacks to climate change. The leaders cast their sights around the world —- drawing a rebuke after accusing China of posing “serious challenges ” to global stability. But Russia’s invasion of Ukraine dominated the summit.

“We live in a more dangerous world and we live in a more unpredictable world, and we live in a world where we have a hot war going on in Europe,” NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said. “At the same time, we also know that this can get worse.”

You say Fuck Ukraine and who cares because I suspect you haven't read anything about the conflict or the history. You should try, work that brain a little.

It’s important to beat Russian President Vladimir Putin on the battlefield in Ukraine, as international sanctions alone won’t work, former president of Lithuania Dalia Grybauskaite told CNBC.

“From the very beginning of the war, I have said that Putin only understands the language of strength, and he can be stopped only on the battlefield — not by sanctions,” she said on Wednesday.

“Sanctions are painful to all of us, and their effect takes longer; the effect on the battlefield is quicker,” she said, adding that NATO needs to provide Ukraine appropriate, fast and necessary equipment to make this war as short as possible.

Failing to do so will only prolong the war, she said.

She hailed NATO’s decision to label Russia a direct threat as a “huge step forward.”

The ONLY reason Joe* is in office right now is that TPTB decided to go nuclear and destroy the world economy with a fake pandemic to try to fix that mistake.

In the end, they may have just destroyed the Democratic Party by doing so.

Trump said of how to help Ukraine during Russia’s invasion, “Well what I would do, is I would, we would, we have tremendous military capability and what we can do without planes, to be honest with you, without 44-year-old jets, what we can do is enormous, and we should be doing it and we should be helping them to survive and they’re doing an amazing job.”

Russia's messages with missiles tell West to back off

While much of the attritional war in Ukraine’s east is hidden from sight, the brutality of Russian missile strikes on a mall in the central city of Kremenchuk and on residential buildings in the capital, Kyiv, unfolded in full view of the world and especially of Western leaders gathered for a trio of summits in Europe.

Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko suggested the missiles are a message from Putim, three days after EU leaders unanimously agreed to make Ukraine a candidate for membership.

The former commanding general of U.S. Army forces in Europe, retired Lt. Gen. Ben Hodges, went further in connecting the attack and the meetings. “The Russians are humiliating the leaders of the West,” he said.

Defying the evidence, Putin and his officials deny that Russia hit residential areas.

Sorry to tell a Ruskie this but Russia has an economy smaller than South Korea, larger than North Korea. That Russian smallness limits what Putin can do. And there is a time limit on Putin. When Putin dies, absurdities irrupt into the Russian narrative. And Putin will die before the West runs out of ammo to kill Russian soldiers.

Ukraine-Russia war: The first four months in numbers

Army Technology reports:

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February this year has resulted in a reaffirmation among NATO members about the need for the Alliance and the role it plays in European security. However, as the war drags on, the scale of the challenge is becoming ever clearer.

Earlier this week, NATO announced that it would increase the number of forces held as rapid readiness to more than 300,000, up from around 40,000 at present, mainly based on the Alliance’s eastern front.

The move comes after decades of counter-insurgency operations by member states in countries such as Afghanistan and represents an indication of a return to a Cold War stance when NATO faced off against the Soviet Union. The casualty rates on both sides of the Ukraine-Russia war indicate a type of conflict being fought that has not been seen on the European continent for generations.

Speaking at the RUSI Land Power Conference in London on 28 June, the UK Chief of the General Staff General Patrick Sanders outlined the scale of the war in Ukraine, detailing the commitment by Moscow of 103 battalion tactical groups to the ground war, with up to 33,000 Russian military personnel dead, wounded, missing or captured.

In addition, Sanders said that Ukraine’s military is seeing up to 200 casualties per day, with 77,000km2 of its landmass seized by Russia – equivalent to 43% of the total area of the Baltic states. The renewed war has also resulted in around 4,700 civilian deaths, according to Sanders, with eight million civilians now refugees.

Ammunition has also been expended on both sides at a rate unsustainable for most NATO countries, further indicating both the levels of conflict and a lack of strategic depth among some Alliance members.

Dr Jack Watling, senior research fellow in land warfare at RUSI, told delegates at the RUSI conference that, based on figures from the UK’s participation in Exercise Warfighter in 2021, the UK would hypothetically run out of stockpiled ammunition in two days based on current Russian usage, or around two weeks if compared to Ukraine.

Oleksandr Danylyuk, a former adviser to Ukraine’s Minister of Defence, presenting at the conference, said that a lack of Soviet ammunition available in the international market required an “immediate shift to western systems”.

Regarding Ukrainian military casualties, Watling said more of its personnel had been killed or seriously wounded in the four months of fighting from 24 February than there is infantry in the entire British Army. The British Army lists around 25% of its personnel as being infantry, equating to just over 20,000 if based on full time regular figures.

The need for commonality

Watling said that further western support to Ukraine in the coming months would need to see greater rationalisation, centered around “common” gun and ammunition types. NATO members have supplied significant quantities of weapons, vehicles, and other military systems to Kyiv, however many require bespoke training packages and nation-specific ammunition.

According to the US Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), in the case of artillery, the US has sent 128 M777 155mm howitzers to Ukraine, including 36,000 rounds of 105mm ammunition in the latest series of security aid packages.

The CSIS report described the delivery of such a quantity of 105mm ammunition was ”unusual” given that the majority of artillery systems provided to Ukraine to date ”have been the larger 155mm calibre, which has become the NATO standard for nearly all units”.

France is another to have provided a 155mm artillery system to Kyiv, with its CAESAR howitzers. The UK and New Zealand are outliers in their provision of 105mm artillery platforms, with the bulk of the ammunition provided by Washington, CSIS states in its 27 June analysis.

The leader of Wagner Group, Dmitry Utkin, literally has the Nazi SS symbol tattooed on him. This guy was sent to denazify Ukraine. You literally cannot make it up. Putin reportedly sending mercenaries from the Wagner Group - named after Hitler's favourite composer - to #Ukraine on a mission to kill its Jewish president and "deNazify" the country.

Jim Tankersly of The New York Times asked Biden, “How long is it fair to expect American drivers, and drivers around the world, to pay that premium for this war?” Biden gave a stupid answer, which shows he knows nothing about how gasoline prices are set:

“As long as it takes,” Biden said. “Russia cannot in fact defeat Ukraine and move beyond Ukraine. The bottom line is ultimately the reason why gas prices are up is because of Russia. Russia, Russia, Russia. The reason why the food crisis exists is because of Russia,” Biden added.

My answer, if I was President: "Putin and I both want low, low gasoline and food prices and if that means Ukraine has to be annihilated I will be sending American troops to destroy Ukraine following Putin's orders. Did you understand I was being facetious, you goddamn knucklehead reporter? To answer your question, Ukraine/America/NATO/EU will be annihilating Putin. However long that takes, that is how long it is fair to expect American drivers, and drivers around the world, to pay that premium for this war."

Wow, personalize things much, SECOND?

If your aim is to "destroy Putin", just send in a crack assasination squad. I mean, how complicated can it be? That way, we won't have to fight to the last Ukrainian and destroy the collective west's economy.

But, yanno, the aim isn't REALLY to destroy Putin, is it? He's just a convenient figurehead to rally idiots. So why are you engaging in this exercise?

Lysichansk Is Under Control Of The Russian Side

Lysichansk is now under control of the Russian side of the war.

This was reported by a Russian speaking journalist from the Lysichansk City Park (map) which is at the center of the city. There are a few locals around him who seem to be happy. There is no background noise of shooting or artillery fire or impacts in his report.

The Lugansk People’s Republic now has the entire territory of the Lugansk oblast under its control.

This comes only a week after the cauldron around Lysichansk began to close. Until a few hours ago there was still a chance to flee from Lysichansk but the only passable road was under Russian fire. It is not know yet how many made it out or how many gave up and were taken prisoners.

It is not an exercise. Putin intends to take all of Ukraine, Poland, the Balkins. It is his dream. Check out "How Far Do Putin’s Imperial Ambitions Go?"

Assassinate Putin? Don't be silly, Signym. The CIA tried assassinating Castro dozens of times. Castro died an old man so the assassination route is not a believable tactic for America. Killing Putin would require assassins who know it is a kamikaze mission and the CIA doesn't have anybody like that on call. Not even Tom Cruise in one of his Mission Impossible movies ever goes in knowing that he will die.

But if America can't kill Putin, Putin's soldiers are easy to kill by the tens of thousands, as Ukraine has proved. Unfortunately for Putin's dream of expanding the Russian Empire, he only has a smallish number of soldiers to expend. Putin can't emulate Stalin and kill Russians by the millions, confident that the peasants will keep sacrificing themselves for Mother Russia. Putin will have to quit his invasion when the number of dead and wounded gets to, who knows, 500,000. I don't think even Putin knows. Whatever the number, ordinary Russians will realize that this is a stupid war being fought because Putin needs to feel good about himself as the reincarnation of Peter the Great. Killing/wounding 500,000 Russians is a very doable number for Ukraine, assuming the EU/NATO/UK/USA keep supplying ammo.

Putin is not the only old man with delusions. Biden has some, too, which he tweets @POTUS

My message to the companies running gas stations and setting prices at the pump is simple: this is a time of war and global peril.

Bring down the price you are charging at the pump to reflect the cost you’re paying for the product. And do it now.

During WWII the Federal government had price controls on gasoline because it was a perfect time for price gouging by Capitalists. The government could actually remember what happened in WWI. But government has forgotten what it once knew. Today there are no price controls.

There is a US Inflation Calculator to easily calculate how the buying power of the US dollar has changed from 1913-present:

https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/

https://smartasset.com/investing/inflation-calculator

What once cost $1 now costs $29.52

Here is a different calculator that compares prices from centuries ago:

https://www.in2013dollars.com/us/inflation/1844?amount=1

$1 in 1844 is worth $38.97 today.

Capitalism is a machine for raising prices. Capitalists can take extremely profitable advantage of Americans who don't understand how Capitalism works.

Ben Franklin knew how Capitalism works. He set aside a small amount of money for an experiment. Franklin’s glorious 200-year experiment in microlending came to an official end in 1990, by which time the compounded value of the funds was $4.5 million in Boston and $2 million in Philadelphia. Inflation is wonderful, assuming you have money and use inflation to achieve ever larger wealth.

Quoting Putin: Mr. Putin said that he views Ukraine as just the first step, with many other territories potential targets. On June 9, he held court in front of a sign proclaiming “Peter the Great, the Birth of the Empire” at an exhibition honoring the 350th anniversary of Russia’s first emperor. With a smile, Mr. Putin explained that when Peter conquered from Sweden the area of today’s St. Petersburg and the city of Narva, currently in Estonia, “he was merely returning what is ours, and strengthening it,” even though nobody else at the time recognized the legality of Russia’s land grab.

“It seems like it is our destiny too, to return and to strengthen,” Mr. Putin added, suggesting that—like the wars of Peter the Great—the current conflict could last more than two decades. His senior adviser Vladimir Medinsky was even more explicit. He lamented at the same conference that Russia’s territory has greatly diminished from the time when Moscow controlled one-sixth of the planet’s surface, including Finland, Poland, and 14 other currently independent nations. That unfortunate territorial retreat “is not forever,” he said.

That's a false equivalence argument.

The world-wide median per-capita income was $2,920 in 2020, and that's before wages were pushed up post-Covid plandemic.

If I owned my mud hut in Kenya free and clear, I'd be living on 25 cents per day.

As it stands now, I'm under $18 per day. If I didn't have property taxes I would be under $15 per day.

The average working American will spend more filling up their tank to get to and from work this week than I will to live comfortably the entire week. The average working American will spend more on lunch Tuesday when the holiday weekend is over than it costs me to comfortably live for the entire day.

And all of that was paid for, well in advance. Most of the stuff I have in my house for future use was bought pre-Bidenflation. Zero on credit. Zero interest payments. Plenty stock of everything I need on hand.

Hell... If I wanted to, I could just not buy any food or toiletries for the next 2 years to keep stocked up and I could bring that $15 down to $10 per day. Then the only thing keeping me from being under $10 would be paying for other people's kids to go to school.

Franklin’s 200-year experiment in microlending came to an official end in 1990, by which time the compounded value of the funds was $4.5 million in Boston and $2 million in Philadelphia.

Franklin's greedy descendants wanted that money for themselves, but his lawyers wrote the codicil to his will so that Boston and Philly got the money instead. Franklin's experiment proved to be very important but no Trumptard understands, probably because TL;DR. Or maybe Trumptards just plain old lack the knack to live large and be wealthy. I guess somebody has to be on the bottom and that place is natural for Trumptards.

6ix, nobody cares about reading your story "See America on $18 per Day". And those supposedly poor "Democrats" that Republicans are always bitching and moaning about? Those "Democrats" don't even know who the governor of Texas is, or any other state-wide official. I've been asking and they either don't know Abbott's name or they think his name is Perry, a previous governor. Ignoramuses don't prosper anywhere in the world, especially in America. That is a rule which is true even in Russia. Too bad more ignoramuses don't know it, but then they wouldn't be ignorant, would they?

Apparently you do. You can't stop talking about my personal life.

Stop pretending that you're talking to somebody that doesn't understand money, and I won't tell you for the 10,000th time that I have no money worries.

Side note: https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/car-sales-in-the-us-slow-on-rising-sticker

According to JD Power, the average car loan is $700 a month now. Add that to the $1200 to $2000 I'm not paying on rent or mortgage in BidenWorld and it's no different than me making $1900 to $2600, tax free, every month, simply by not doing anything.

And then think of the large percentage of all that money that Americans are paying for interest on their loans and not even to pay down the shit they don't own.
