The war in Ukraine and Donbas

Exactly! America is stupid for ever allowing this. Break out the lube and start learning Chinese.

Well American corporate greed got us to that point.
Then the stupid politicians decided to start a cold war with China and trying to destroy their tech economy and lead a global boycott against them.
All while relying on stuff from them for critical things


Politicians are really good at being stupid.

But then so are the people.

The stupid public have a limited attention span.
Russia has been very intelligent in slowly bleeding the Nazis dry, thus not letting our dirtbag politicians have anything to stir up the public about.
The USA public has no stomach for long term things these days.
Besides you have the whole Israel thing now competing for USA money and politicians
And as much as the Nazis are funneling back huge amounts of cash in bribes and kickbacks, when Israel comes calling, "our" politicians in the USA snap to and do their master's bidding pronto.

Even that warmonger (possibly also hugely corrupt) Mittens, is all about Israel now and less about helping the Nazis.
 
From RT, so take it for what it is worth.



However, it should be noted that we are looking at a 3 front war if things don't cool off, and the war drums keep beating. Ukraine, ME, and China/Tiawan. But in any of these the players on both sides will be the same, it's just moving to a different home field with a different first string. Its turning into BRICS+ v NATO and doesn't seem like many decision makers have considered fully the implications of the amount of military components NATO is supplied with from BRICS nations.

I also wonder if one of the reasons the Norks are being deployed is to get combat experience to improve their training and readiness. It's been a while since they have fought and they are stirring the pot with SK pretty hard.

....and based on the info that @Terry Cross provided, how many believe that there is probably a back door into the systems and machines that these chips power? I am computer illegitimate to a large degree, but am sure if there is a way to hack things, and these chips can be used for the process... . In a word, sadly, we are screwed and next week aint gonna change that.

As far as Ukraine and weapons testing/experiments there... the battle is lost, how long it stretches out just depends on when the cash cows dry up. I have been expecting a report from Russia on US Biolabs discovered there, perhaps I missed it.

It's been well proven that the CIA and NSA were busy backdooring all the telecom and network gear they possibly could that was being shipped out to anyone country they had any interest in.

It's also well suspected that the NSA has backdoors in any operating system made in the USA or "friendly countries" as well as backdoors into most chip and processor level hardware.

And this is before we get into the NSA spending decades making sure many or most or perhaps almost all western based encryption systems had a way they could get in...


So maybe the Chinese are doing the same thing we probably are?
Who are you more afraid of spying on you?
Or you could be like Merkle's cell phone and basically be the town bicycle with everybody spying on your device.

There is a reason that for national security rated stuff, the NSA is rumored to run their own chip fab in the USA with their own chip designers and software designers.

China Snuck A Tiny Microchip Inside Servers Used By The DoD And CIA​


"Elemental servers assembled by Supermicro are “found in Department of Defense data centers, the CIA’s drone operations, and the onboard networks of Navy warships,” per Bloomberg, and the revelation prompted DoD officials at the time to request a small group of technologists “to think about creating commercial products that could detect hardware implants.”

“Public documents, including the company’s own promotional materials, show that the servers have been used inside Department of Defense data centers to process drone and surveillance-camera footage, on Navy warships to transmit feeds of airborne missions, and inside government buildings to enable secure videoconferencing,” Bloomberg reports. “NASA, both houses of Congress, and the Department of Homeland Security have also been customers.”

"News of the years-long infiltration of secure networks through the lowest levels of the global industrial supply chain — China still manufactures the majority of the raw tech behind the world’s mobile phones and personal computers — reflects not just a coup for the Chinese intelligence community, but an alarming vulnerability of the U.S. industrial base."

You don't know who your computer dad is? Shame.

its a by product but not the why. Russia and Norks have a mutual defense upon invasion agreement. Ukraine moving into Kursk brougth the Norks into it.

Every action has a reaction.
 
And Sig is stupid too. The camera is tilted upward, which means it is meant for fast forward flight. Even with a 120 degree FOV on the camera the aiming of it will be tenuous at best unless there is a secondary camera, both of which means you have to stop, hover (or at least slow down) and then aim, all while the noise signature gives everyone actionable info, all while having the same issues as the first one. Unless you are into strafing - with a limited number of rounds. And the Xing motors Sig is using are made in China; unless they get a waiver that's a problem.
I'm probably wrong but I took it that the drone in that photo is inverted to show the handgun fixturing.
Pretty sure it would be gun side down during actual flight operations. At least from a CG and stability standpoint, I think that would be a given.
 

A good 1/4 of physicians in the U.S. are foreign, from old data.

Not articulating the root problem well enough, but I think you get the picture.
foreign doctors can't get rich from socialized medicine...so they come here to make bank pushing pills.
that isn't to say there aren't some good ones.

Just trying to illustrate the overall gestalt that we sold ourselves out long ago, and continue to do so this very day…

It rhymes when I say…

…this is the American way.

EDIT: In this case, we locals are either too dumb or too lazy to fill domestic demand for this profession.

One would think. But nope, it’s on top. That’s one of several reasons i disagree with the design.

China’s domestic chip production has infected almost every aspect of US military equipment. A recent report analyzing US defense weapon systems and supply chains found that 41% rely on Chinese chips.

Looking at specific weapons programs is even more disturbing: The US Navy’s newest aircraft carrier is powered by over 6,500 Chinese computer chips.

An F/A-18 Super Hornet is a close second with over 5,000 Chinese chips per plane.

Straight out of this government report:


and......

Producing chips requires high-quality neon gas, and Ukraine’s neon supported half of the global chip industry—and supplied 90% of the neon for US chip production.

Another history lesson ignored. Trojan Horse

That is not what it says.

There is a difference between a semi conductor and a chip.

The article states 41% of the semi conductor material is purchased through China. All the other high numbers about aircraft carriers and F-18's is the same, semi conductors... the raw material.

Not Chips.

This is not some massive breach of the sky is falling and the Chinese have control of our chip production. Like you are making it sound.

you are confounding the information

Yep. Either way, the fact we rely on them for so much, even raw materials, is not smart strategy.

Agree, and understand the concern.

I also believe if Push comes to shove, I don't think they can stop use from getting these resources.

Just as an example, the Ti that the A-12/SR-71 was made from was sourced from Russia purchased through shell companies. We then took that material and arguably build one of the most impressive pieces of machinery of the 20th Century. To me that pretty cool.

no. from the start most of the regulars here were anti-NWO Ukraine.

Also this is the second Ukraine thread. Same over there. Would be interesting to hear more from the old professor guy that spoke on Ukraine. Don't remember his name.
 
WUT :eek:

American Daniel Martindale explains how he managed to infiltrate Ukrainian army in Donetsk (ex-Ukraine) with help of Telegram contacts (1st video), thanks Russian forces for daring operation risking their lives to bring him safely to Moscow
Martindale has been active in Ukrainian-held territories since February 11, 2022, transmitting coordinates, which helped with precision missile strikes on Ukrainian military facilities

Still sceptical of this , but would be quite logical if they get used they get used in Kursk.

“already fighting with Koreans, who are disguised as Buryats,” = 11th separate guards airborne assault division from Ulan-Ude, parts of which have been fighting in the Kursk since August.

if true, doesn't sound good for the regular people...

Its going to be hard as many old apartment blocks run on distribuited heating provided by powerplants


Note that power generation was actualy not hit till they started bombing Russian rafineries , then each time another powerplant goes up in smoke

If the "regular people" get enough of Zelensky and the West shitting on their homeland, they just might have to stand up for themselves and have their own Independence Day.

Doubt it would ever happen and a whole generation of Ukes are wiped out but would have been the purest path to a sovereign and happy country.

the longer this goes on, the more i believe this war was used on purpose to eliminate christian nationalist ukrainians.
all that's left are cowards that will tow the line for elite globalists.

Ghost of Kiev day dot, the pensioner shooting down a jet with a rifle, Russia running out of ammunition in the first week, Russia running out of supplies in the first week, Russia running out of missiles in the second week, Russia building missiles with captured washing machine electronics.

Ukraine flipping on a dime from a corrupt shithole with nazis and a tendency to shell Donetsk to peace loving freedom fighters that need a fuckton of money. Even though the media at that point still had their old articles up about the corrupt shithole part.

And throughout this entire time the media was in lockstep, traditional left and right papers publishing the exact same thing.

i think read that some iraqi scuds used something like washing machine timers to change the trajectory during flight.
