Russia - threadbanned users in OP

Oh no, you see @Wibbs it is because the fear oráiste is the bestest and the toughest and the bestest president. The Russians quake in their boots when they think of him. They would be too terrified to place sanctions on him. It is because Joe Biden is weak and in bed with the Russians and, and, that they placed sanctions on him. It is not what the MSM want you to believe. None of this would have happened if our greatest and bestest former President didn’t have the election stolen from him

All commercial/civilian aircraft and military aircraft working in commercial or civilian airspace are required to transmit or "Squawk" a unique code that identifies themselves, plus height, direction of travel and airspeed. The apps simply recieve and process the same transponder signal that airtraffic controllers see. Military aircraft transmit only if they want to be seen, so there is another side to the Global Hawk story.

Interesting theory from Reddit

More camouflaged Trump crap

Times Radio: 'The West is at war with Russia' | Garry Kasparov

Going by that he is suggesting that NATO, should get involved now, instead of waiting until later?

On another note, hopefully not giving ammunition to putinbots?

If Putin sees this as a ‘Military Operation’ and not a 'War' can he be guilty of War Crimes?

And yes I believe 'War Crimes' have happened in Ukraine.

I think many are surprised including myself at the level of influence Abrahmovich has in Russia.

Abrahmovich lived in The Kremlin having been invited by Yeltsin and was the link man between Yeltsin and Putin. Subsequently Abrahmovich recommended Putin (for the job of PM I think) and interviewed his cabinet or something to that effect.

Allegedly some very dodgy deals were set up to funnel money to Putin via state contracts granted to Abrahmovichs companies.

Chelsea can go **** themselves playing the victim.

I'm pretty sure Putin won't be the one deciding if its a war and hence charged with war crimes

For example, I do a bit of flying ( of course you do, you Walter Mitty bastard). But seriously, I do. I fly out of a little air strip in Roscommon called Tibhoine airfield. Its only a few miles from Knock Airport. Now, Knock does not have an active radar, so they cannot see us. Neither can Shannon Control, which controls aircraft flying at a certain level. So we have to contact control, who assign us a squawk code, which I input into the transponder, select the mode, which broadcasts our attitude, speed etc and as soon as I do that, a blip appears on their screens. Therefore they can steer us clear of any impatient Ryanair flight that might be bearing down on our asses at that moment. Very simplified of course, but you get the picture.

I sincerely hope the Ukrainians have a store of their home-grown Neptune anti-ship cruise missiles they have been hiding from airstrikes and have refrained from using so as not to tip their hand.

That's why she's depressed.

But what about Iran using the Yemeni's as their cannon fodder, comrade?

Thats a real pedal to the metal job.... no orderly convoy rules there...more like every man for himself......☺️

@corkie

If I cover my eyes while playing hide and seek, can people still see me?
