I'm not going to say Russia isn't the aggressor, but I expect the claim that Ukraine would no longer exist as a country or a nation is exaggerated. There's not really any proof, the slogan describes a feeling. For example, Georgia still exists, and has applied to join the EU a few days ago...

they're not two images, these are two multi-image threads. If they appear blurry to you, you could try viewing them directly on imgur. They point to posts where the topic has come up previously.

Some cities (e.g. Mariupol) are without power, water, or heat, because Russia has targetted essential infrastructure. This is also a threat to civilians. Proportionality and precautions in attack: The reverberating effects of using explosive weapons in populated areas - International Review of...

Nice, the thread is back, except for the post that got shifted to Rambles. (2x TASS) I'd like to clarify my intentions with regard to this discussion: 1) The thread is about "Media, information control, and misinformation" in the Ukraine-Russia war. It's about how media are used to push...

Scientists base their work on the work of others. "Standing on the shoulders of giants" and all that. See, Edward Current put a curved cloud layer in his simulation, after I mentioned it on his thread, and now TheCholla has it in his. Who is the "original scientist", and why does it matter...

could be that they're trying to prevent russians from using it for recon they already turned traffic info off for that reason

Yes really per fotoforensics. Look up the source of my quote, it's literally that site, and an expert opinion. I didn't want to go into the details because it doesn't make Azov any less Nazi, so it's not really an important issue.

I don't expect we'll know anything for sure anytime soon. It's probably safe to say that the Russians reached a position outside Enerhodar late on the 28th. On March 1st, there were pictures of a civilian blockade. I've also seen a report that the Russians wanted to negotiate for a peaveful...

I found a good article on the ins and outs of no-fly-zones, here's the conclusion:From a distant viewpoint, the no-fly zone might seem like a somewhat impersonal option for the employment of military force. The reality is that effective enforcement involves flying over territory where fighting...

Yes, but the rest of the planet isn't the part of the model that concerns us, so it doesn't matter. What matters are the clouds we see, and if their tops are at approximately 15000 ft, those tops approximate a segment of a sphere with radius of (Earth+15000). How else would you model them? Are...

the reporter asking the question had seen the reports, and asked the official to confirm the reports themselves came from someone else and we don't know if they're true but they're useful and haven't been debunked, so the NYT (and other outlets) propagate them were they still good? it's not...

not only reason 1, but also reason 2 do these "aggressive statements" even exist?

Earth is a sphere, therefore a uniform cloud layer surrounding Earth is a slightly larger hollow sphere.

=sanctions he gives 2 reasons, and 1 of them is sanctions 3 of your 4 "yellow marker" sources support this: Marketwatch: The increasingly erratic Putin made a clear link between ever-tightening sanctions and his decision Sunday to raise Russia’s nuclear posture. He also pointed at “aggressive...

The separatists thought they could, and did. Russia points out that Kosovo did as well. My post isn't about your perspective, or the "right" perspective, it's about Russia's. Solving conflicts without acknowledging each other's perspectives rarely works out well. And from Russia's perspective...

I'm not saying it is propaganda, I'm saying I can't tell if it's propaganda or not. "Russian morale is low" is one piece of propaganda that's particularly obvious: it's easy to claim, possible to show on TV anecdotally, but is it true in general? Same with the gas tank story: even if someone...

Russia complained about it to the European Court of Human Rights last year (application 36958/21, see https://www.echr.coe.int/Pages/home.aspx?p=caselaw/interstate&c= ). They also complain about the water supply to Crimea at the Northern Crimean Canal being switched off [...] In the context of...

to enjoy it, you'd need to dehumanize the people you're shooting at, and the civilians who will unavoidably die as a consequence your sources: “You see people nowadays that are hooked on drugs, heroin, cocaine, whatever the case may be,” he said. “The biggest high you can ever get is a natural...
