Suspect the Serbs realise they will be the next country annexed by Putin. Serbs love a fight, even when they mostly lose. But even more they prefer a profit, regardless of who dies.

2x A50s? They only had 3 left! That pretty much leaves Russia defenceless against a serious aerial attack. They basically only have ground based radars to identify threats & control responses. And ground based units are easier to attack.

Make it so, but offer a Universal Basic Income so people don't need to focus on earning a wage. AI, automation & computerisation are removing millionsof jobs anyway. Time for a new approach to life as we enter the next capitalist revolution.

Noticeable lack of dead insects on car after long journeys these days. However, recent (May) trip to Scotland was just like my youth (70 years ago) regular screen cleaning needed.

One does not stay on the wrong side of the road if something is seen. Moving over temporarily allows it to be seen sooner.

Not very good at holding phones steady either. Maybe they're all drunk, or afraid. Maybe both.

It's difficult & manpower intensive to defend all road/ rail crossings but not hard to hit undefended ones. Russia's size & low populaion outside cities is a big weakness.

Pretty sure they will understand.

As long as he doesn't kill or maime anyone.

Which significantly reduces Russia's ability to defend itself from all aerial attacks

Quite, it's a logistics nightmare to check every container in transit for the forseeable future.

Bet you haven't a shred of evidence for that absurd claim.

Be interested to learn how they define chemtrails & how they will identify miscreants & prove guilt. 🤔

Much worse than Hamas.

Should have planted it. You'd have a couple of servings of delicious new potatoes ready for Christmas dinner.

The missiles they fire have global reach. The concept is that after a country is annihilated, the oppressor can be attacked by retaliating submarines.

You can see further round a corner if you are on the outside of the bend.

Shotgun guards are probably the best defence against drones, but you'd need a lot of them. Maybe automated multishot shotguns able to locate & shoit drones?

Wot no pictures? 🤣

Only gets paid 50k pw, while others get 150-300. Not a strong motivator to stay as a squad player.

Don't they know that octopus can squeeze through the mesh anyway because they don't have bones or shell?
