Ukraine war briefing: Power cuts in Kharkiv after Russian strikes

Residential buildings and service stations were among targets, say local officials; Russian grip tightens around Pokrovsk with battles in nearby Selydove. What we know on day 971

So you believe these US statements in one post but disregard them in the next?

Playing his cards pretty close to his chest there to the media from Mr Austin I'd say.

Considering Cong. Mike Turner (R) Chair of the Intelligence committee issued a media release demanding an immediate classified briefing from Biden on Friday regarding North Korean troop movements into Ukraine.

You wouldn't think there'd be that sort of reaction if he thought the topic was simply a media beat up.

I'll wait for another week or so before determining either position.

Set your watch to this;

You'll figure Warlord out pretty quickly. His system is not complex;

1. If it makes Russia look good, it's true
2. If it makes Russia look bad, it's fake news

Australia really is one of the understated world leaders in military UAV's at the moment.

The Ghost Bat, Ghost Shark and Strix are all next gen platforms with big futures.

In addition to the Port Melbourne developed Corvo cardboard/rubber band drone that the Ukranians have been ordering 100's of per month and that they used in a swarm attack that destroyed a number of Russian fighter jets at the Kursk airfield in 2023.

Only in Australia would we show off cutting edge tech like that, in what looks like a standard backyard Aussie shed.

I'm sure just out of frame of that video is a 1990s Kelvinator fridge full of VB.

thanks to bigfooty "Indigenous Campaigner" has taken on a whole new meaning.

love this though. Don't agree with her about everything obviously but I can't imagine being against her on this. Like, to support an institution that in living memory was used to overthrow our democratically elected government, to prevent our country from exercising sovereignty? A head of state who holds the position through a direct line of inheritance from the one who authorised the settler colonialism of this land and genocide of its people? Monarchism is not compatible with even a moderate support for indigenous people, I'm sorry. The King (feels absurd to say) should not be able to set foot in our country without facing this kind of backlash.

Imagine saying this to someone else, and then proceeding to go on a rant about how Russia is great and apparently it was AKSHUALLY a good thing that they invaded Afghanistan and then left.

You realise he didn't akshully do what you're accusing him of yeah.

 

[ferball]

Yeah. I can't imagine supporting him or ever being in lock-step with him in terms of his policies and worldview.

Would make me take a massive pause.

You never watched that MorePerfectUnion video I linked did you.

It's the right message, delivered in a less-than-perfect way, by the absolutely wrong messenger.

Who the hell are you to decide who can and can't speak for indigenous people?

Oh, please.

We've been over Lidia Thorpe before. I'm not going over it again.

 

[ferball]

Its none of your business what indigenous people speak for indigenous people. You're that up yourself that you think your opinion matters?

Anyway what's interesting is the way you keep ignoring the video I'm talking about. More Perfect Union is a leftwing youtube channel.

They went to some bush county in the south with a long term history of voting Democrat until Trump. They interviewed the people, most or all of whom voted for Democrat governor, because his pro working people policies. All of those people bar one couple were voting for Trump.

They're not what you think, most of them are thoughtful and consider what they're thinking of. One of them talked about the people at the border, the so called illegals, and said wtte of "they'd be just like me and we probably have more in common than any politician."

Oh get over yourself.

Come back to me when you've actually worked directly with elders like Aunty Geraldine like I have, and have heard their opinions of Lidia Thorpe.

Anyway what's interesting is the way you keep ignoring the video I'm talking about.

Yeah I have no interest to be honest. Quite frankly you've proven yourself to be a gullible and unintelligent type. I'm not really interested in the YouTube "do your own research" rabbit holes you've fallen under.
