Russia - threadbanned users in OP

No delusion here,they know what they are fighting for,their very survival.

Source for this?

The war and rapid disconnection from Russia as an energy provider and instability have increased energy costs across the board, so why are you asking "who" has increased energy costs? Is something else occurring according to you, if so, what is it?

You just claimed a few posts back that gas prices in Germany are now four times what they were before the russian invasion of Ukraine. This link below has a graph of EU natural gas prices and shows the current price is the same now as it was in September 2021 after which the EU decided on not buying material from the terrorist state and support their continued occupation of another European countries territory and the murder of its civilian population. I don't see why you should expect other people to do the work of discrediting your lies.

That's completely independent of what it costs to buy. Your argument is that the US make less profit on the gas then the russians did when they were able to sell it. That doesn't impact what Germany pays.

Look, come to the party with facts and figures and stop embarrassing yourself.

EU gas prices (Natural Gas EU Dutch TTF)

Peaked at 346 eur at end August

Now at 58 eur

Reason: Russian invading Ukraine impacting the European market price of gas. Which, amazingly, fluctuates.

Some reports are saying that a major Russian Offensive in the East (Luhassk and Donbas) others may be feints in the next 7-9 days. They are stockpiling ammunition and have upwards of 500,000 ready. Ukrainian forces may have to (and it would be sensible to) withdraw to pre-prepared positions well back from the current front.

Nobody knows what you are claiming as your story shifts in every post.

This is what you were claiming earlier:

"Germany are now paying 4 times the price for gas from the US than they were pre-Nordstream demolition."

And with each claim you seem incapable of providing any external evidence.

We are asking you for direct evidence to support your actual specific claim.

From History net

'British-supplied tanks made up 30 to 40 percent of the entire heavy and medium tank strength of Soviet forces before Moscow at the beginning of December 1941, and certainly made up a significant proportion of tanks available as reinforcements at this critical point in the fighting.'

Furthermore,

Nikita Khrushchev offered the same opinion. "If the United States had not helped us, we would not have won the war," he wrote in his memoirs.

The war in Afghanistan went on for 10 years.

And Russia lost.

Ukraine are much better armed and trained.

Your post contradicts itself. Why should a long war favour Russia. You cannot explain.

Really obvious the way you assign moral agency only to Ukraine and throw in digs at Zelensky. Yet have no words on Putin and how many lives he is wasting on this 'bit of land'. It is Ukrainian land.

Russia wanted all of Ukraine. Or did you miss that bit?

And he puts himself in the line of fire. Unlike Krapzinc.

I really have no interest in your pretend concern for my heating bills. You were making claims about gas prices in Germany and after I showed you evidence your claims are lies you simply try to deny saying them with a claim your phrasing of the lies meant something else. My main heating is with a wood burning stove with local Irish grown timber. On all fronts you are making no sense in your feeble attempts to imply putin's efforts to blackmail Europe with russia's previous role in energy suppies is anything but a complete failure just like his efforts to destroy Ukraine.

The pro orc faction are adamant the Ukraine should negotiate with these rapist savages.

A farmer in Tipperary with 5 acres can probably produce an abundant harvest of potatoes or rhubarb or vegetables.

PMSL, you really understand Irish agriculture alright. My grandparents grew rhubarb in the back garden of their 1930's council house in Tipperary but there aren't too many farmers growing rhubarb in the county for anything other than a few homemade tarts.
