Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital
tgw replied to Chris.B's topic in The War in Ukraine
I have been in Ukraine too. I have family there. 2 things I know to be true: Kharkiv is a city where the main language is Russian. A hugely overwhelming majority of Kharkiv's inhabitants strongly oppose Russian aggression. -
Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital
tgw replied to Chris.B's topic in The War in Ukraine
I admit the invasion of Ukraine by Putin's orcs has greatly affected me. I once had great hopes for Russia to join the free world, but this is just a shameful memory now. Shameful for me because I misjudged the Russian people. I have visited Russia, know some Russian people, made friends. I had hopes the Russian people would not allow yet another dictator to ru(i)n their lives. They did the right thing in 1991, but it seems they are hopeless people when it comes to defending their freedom. The grandmother always warned about the Russians, not to trust them and that they were coming. At the time, I thought Russia was on the way to join our community of free nations. I thought Russia would go the same way as Ukraine wanted to go. Ukrainian People defended their freedom in the Orange Revolution and again at the Euromaidan. But grandmother was right about the Russians. It's so depressing. Putin has destroyed a part of my world - some of it physical, most of it spiritual. He wants to destroy more of it. That's why he must not be allowed to win. That's why I'm happy at every Russian plane that gets shot down, happy at every Russian tank that gets popped by a javelin, happy at every Russian general that gets rekt. Ukraine needs Gandalf to stop these orcs and strike down their evil masters. Putin's Russia shall not pass. -

The Soviet Union has been a long time friend of Syria. Many members of Syria's educated community are married to Russian wives. -
both GET and POST do work, but GET works over the URL, which is limited to 2^11 characters. that's why more voluminous data (such as images, files, blobs) needs POST. OP, things have changed since 1994. Variables transmitted by GET requests are no longer automatically globals. You will need to write a simple script, for example in PHP, to read the variables from the URL and use them. And think about validation, because that's a way to get haxxor'd https://www.w3schools.com/php/php_forms.asp EDIT: sorry I misunderstood the OP. What this post says is useful: And then write a script, for example in PHP, to parse the JSON response: https://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/how-to-parse-json-in-php--cms-36994

yes ... BTW, Brovary is the home of a Ukrainian Special Forces base, just West of it, in the woods. I'd expect it has already been levelled to the ground by Russian missiles. -

I hope one day Putin can be taken prisoner and put before a court. Maybe Ukraine can one day conduct a "special military operation" in the style of operation "Neptune Spear" and extract him from where he will be hiding in Russia. By the way, as oligarchs and their families are "under sanctions", I do hope that also applies to Putin's girlfriend and their children. -

Lavrov now spewing lies on air: "We did not attack Ukraine" now also playing the nonsense narrative of US funding the research of biological weapons in Ukrainian labs. Troll in chief. they even bear strong physical resemblance -

I think what's needed now is a non-Nato country to participate in the deal to receive Poland's jets and then deliver them to Ukraine. Preferably a country that doesn't feel threatened by Russia or doesn't give a toss. Malta? Ireland? -

wrong: 1- the USA operates more than 1200 F-16 and Poland is okay with used equipment. 2- the Polish MiGs have been upgraded -
do the 50:50 if it's a couple thousand max. you were in the wrong when coming down the bridge - you had plenty of time to brake and why do you think you should honk at overtaking motorcycles? does the road belong to you? the hit from behind is not clear-cut your fault, he veered into your lane without maintaining the safety distance with you, but you also had the time to react but chose not to. 50-50 seems fair. drive more courteously and book it under "lessons learned". you seem to drive too aggressively.

the West can't get foot on the ground nor planes above Ukraine without serious guarantees that Russia's red button is out of reach of Huylo Putin and other madmen in the chain of command of Russian Nuclear Strategic Forces. -

If Putin doesn't get some "Litvinenko tea" served by a member of his inner circle, then I think a drone strike on his vehicle while on the move is the most promising method of elimination (as for the Iranian Revolutionary Guards kingpin ). The problem is that the trail would lead back to one of the very few countries able to carry out such a strike.
