I'm pretty sure I know more about tank track than most posters on here.

 

You certainly know more about tanks than about Russia.

 

M4A3 named “Cairo” of 4th Tank Battalion on Iwo Jima. Its track was blown off by a land mine and it sustained five hits from Japanese artillery, but the crew survived.

The photo has nothing to do with Russia, they were reversing for the track to be in front of the tank, and there is no evidence of 5 artillery hits on the tank ( perhaps the wood on the side stopped the shells penetrating the tank ).

Any more pointless attacks to make on me?

PS.

 

Given there was no caption on the photo as originally posted either you spent some time looking it up to make some pointless attack on me, or you and the poster that put it there are one and the same.

would anybody expected a different answer from the Chinese, they do have the courage/face to deny it even with the evidence showing, China same as Russia always blaming somebody else for their actions, reminds me of my kids when they were caught with their hand inside the cookie jar they kept saying it was not them but the cat or the dog

Zelenskyy incurs wrath of China

and once again Putin give the middle finger to Trump, not stopping the war and no concessions, the big mouth orange man who's looking for the Nobel Peace Prize and claimed he could end the war in 24 h keeps quiet, Zelensky stoop up to him he asked the Ukrainian to leave the WH, Putin is standing up to you and he sits back, no dead line or time frame given to the Russians, we couldn't expect anything less from Krasnov as he's afraid of challenging his master Putin

 

"Putin's spokesman said the talks with US envoy Steve Witkoff, which lasted more than four hours, were 'not momentous' and there would be no concessions."

Trump envoy says Ukraine could be divided 'like Berlin after WWII'

The captions about damage are not mine, see my link.  This very famous WW2 tank image is even used by WIKI's Tank Mobility Kill page. When a mine hits near the front drive sprocket the track unwinds this way.  WIKI also shows a WW2 German Tiger tank damaged the same way.  Look.

 

My point was beware claims without evidence in threads about Russia because of the huge volume of Russian disinformation flooding the world, especially since Putin started his war.  The point was not solely for you, but, well, I guess you hit the mine.😋

I never said they were yours. I said they were not on the original photo as posted. I don't read Wiki tank mobility page- what on earth makes you think I do?

So famous I never saw it, LOL.

 

As for claims without evidence, that would apply to any post that says Ukraine is winning, simply because they are not, ergo there is no proof of that.

You miss the point or deliberately try and change the subject. The point, which you patently fail to cmprehend, or refuse to acknowledge because you are in reality a Russian stooge, is the Russpria,  a superpower you continuously express faith in and admiration of, is resorting to B&Q (Home Depot, if you really are an American, but I suspect you are not) to uparmour. I don't think nthat you are so stupid that you cannot comprehend, so I revert to the alternative, that you are a Champion for Russia and Putin an apologist for barabarism and fascism, in the same way that during the Cold War, Communists in the West went out of their way to defend the ills of the Soviet Union, and before them, the likes of Mosley, Joyce, Lindbergh and others defended the indefensible. You are part of a long line of apologists.

 

Of course, for a while, the US military was reduced to scouring scrap piles to up armour Humvees in Iraq, until a brave NCO in Kuwait stood up and took Rumsfeld to task over this. Back in the days when members of the US military were not simply sacked for not following the political ideology.

Prospects for a breakthrough in the deal between Washington and Kyiv are scant given the “antagonistic” atmosphere of the talks, a source told Reuters following last week’s meeting.

As part of Donald Trump’s sweeping new demands for US control over all of Ukraine’s mineral and energy assets, Washington has proposed that its International Development Finance Corporation should take control of a natural gas pipeline running from the town of Sudzha in western Russia to the Ukrainian city of Uzhhorod.

Senior economist Volodymyr Landa told The Guardian that Washington's bullying, “colonial-type” demands had little chance of being accepted by Kyiv.

The war will end when Zelensky accepts the inevitable. All the future deaths are on him.

As Trump says, it's a war that should never have happened.

[sharot724]

Russian people, themselves  need to feelt hat sort of activity to pay some attention to Putins WAR

As I did growing up next to Cape Cod fearing RUSSIA nightly

[Mavideol]

Trump keeps blaming Ukraine for starting the war in Ukraine, I guess he (Krasnov) can not blame his boss or something very bad will come out, Putin has something big on him, it has to be very big or otherwise he would have gone after Russia's atrocities. He blackmailed Zelensky to accept a cease fire but he doesn't black mail Putin to accept any type of cease fire, Trump is full of BS nothing else

 

“Trump used to say: if I were the president this would never happen. But now he can’t say this. All these atrocities are occurring on his watch. He is the president now.”

Russia has a different opinion on this matter. Let me explain it to you.

You can say that Vladimir or Dmitry have big balls, but you can't say that a table or a chair have big balls. What's the difference? That Vladimir or Dmitry can make decisions on their own. And that's why they can either get scared or act bravely. But a table or a chair can't get scared, and that's why they don't run away, not because they're brave, but because they're incapable of making any decisions.

Recently, Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov said that he doesn't care what Europe thinks because it will do whatever it's told from overseas. Vladimir Putin, in turn, reminded that the US occupation forces are still in Germany, although they've changed their name. Russia's position is that Europe doesn't make decisions on its own and is like a table or a chair that Uncle Sam moves at his own discretion. Therefore, the concept of big balls doesn't apply to Europe.

Perhaps he knows something you and the totally discredited legacy media either don't know or refuse to admit to.

That my comrad is just propraganda straight from those that realize the Russian War is neverending.

My only hope is that Germany and Polish deliver to the citizens of Russia LARGE scale missile attacks assistance . Interviewers in Russia heard those same citizens openly asking why Ukraine attacks them for no reason

Then they will really get closer to finding out the TRUTH.

Can you reveal the reailty to those that claim thier are more civilian enforcers totals than those fighting in the War?

[sharot724]

Comrads gather around and listen up. Lying may be closer than you expect..

On their own, Europe table decides to send Taurus missiles and OKs bombing Kerch Bridge. 

 

Testicle fear drives Putin to issue empty Z-guy threats. Look, even chair is afraid!
