Popular Post rudi49jr Posted August 20, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 20, 2023 The last few days were tough on old Vlad. A Ukrainian suicide drone totally destroyed one of his prized nuke bombers: https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/23563714/putin-nuke-bombers-destroyed-drone/?utm_campaign=native_share&utm_source=sharebar_native&utm_medium=sharebar_native And Russia’s Luna-25 probe crashes on the moon. I’m guessing more than a couple of people got yelled at pretty badly.

A post by Grey Zone, a Wagner-connected social media channel, claimed Russian anti-aircraft defences had shot down the plane. It said that residents heard “two bursts of characteristic air defence fire” before the crash. “This is confirmed by inversion traces in the sky in one of the videos,” it added. Mash, a news outlet on social media app Telegram, said locals had heard two loud bangs before the crash. https://www.ft.com/content/812c9da3-80f2-4fe1-8fad-0b4441d1977a https://archive.ph/31e8g 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post rabas Posted August 24, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 24, 2023 Revenge against Putin could come soon from multiple directions. 1. From Igor Sushko:Twitter just now: Prigozhin's security services collected all of their electronics & documents from their offices and disappeared. Prigozhin had a plan "B" for this situation and massive kompromat leaks against Putin personally are expected to follow... 2. Putin is meeting with FSB Director Bortnikov right now. 3. This is after the stunning crash of Luna-25, which Putin had pushed for. It's hard to overemphasize the discord between Putin and Russian scientists. Putin needs them but can't trust them, which is why so many are hospitalized or (and) fall out of windows. They in turn fear and loath him. Luan-25 however is on a scale beyond other recent technology failures. Putin may have two marks on his back. And did I mention the ruble, the economy, and the failed illegal Ukraine war? I really don't see how he can survive. 2 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bkk Brian Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Wagner Soldiers Send Chilling Warning After Reports of Yevgeny Prigozhin’s Death Wagner soldiers reportedly in Belarus have responded to reports of their leader Yevgeny Prigozhin’s death in a plane crash over Russia with a grim warning: “There’s a lot of talk right now about what the Wagner Group will do. We can tell you one thing. We are getting started, get ready for us,” the soldiers said in a translated video. https://www.thedailybeast.com/wagner-soldiers-send-chilling-warning-after-yevgeny-prigozhin-death-reports 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not be surprised at all and if so how is the Wagner group going to respond? was thinking about the same thing and my expectation was to shoot it over Ukraine air space thus an extra reason to blame Ukrainians, he did surprised me with doing it over Moscow. We were used to see his critics being dropped from high buildings, poisoned, fell out/down staircase but here he went to the extreme by shutting down the plane Edited August 24, 2023 by Mavideol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarraMarra Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Prigozhin was a dead man walking once he crossed Putin as all most crossed him tend to disappear or they are liquidated.

If the Wagner group does go to moscow to ask a few questions does that mean putin has to call troops back from the Ukraine to protect him ? maybe he is long gone hiding somewhere.

I have looked at and enlarged the images of the plane as it came down, seems to me the rear section of the aircraft has gone, the engines of this model are right at the rear of the aircraft. A ground to air missile will home in on a heat source, engines.... OR did Prigozhin stage his demise as he has done before..... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
