Jest jeszcze jedna rzecz w tej całej awanturze ukraińskiej. Mental Polaka jest szlachecki, my mamy zakodowane wielkopańskie maniery. Polak jak coś daje to z serca i gestem szczerym. Czujemy, że w potrzebie trzeba komuś pomóc. Stąd był ten narodowy zryw w 2022, który w żadnym innym społeczeństwie nie byłby możliwy. Do tego dochodzi katolicyzm. Ukrainiec zaś ma mental batożonego chłopa, uniżonego w potrzebie, hardego gdy może. On weźmie wszystko i nisko się skłoni gdy musi, a gdy nie musi to opluje. Po prostu taka jest natura chłopska. Nie ma tu gestu, nie ma współczucia. Jest koryto i własny interes. Postawę altrusistyczną uważa za frajerstwo i idzie "drżeć łocha". To jest podglebie wszystkiego.

The FP-2 UAV has gained the ability to mine logistical routes. - Fire Point co-owner D. Shtilerman hinted that FP-2 drones may be involved in laying mines on roads in occupied territories. On the highway between the occupied parts of Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions (near the city of Melitopol), unidentified Ukrainian anti-personnel / anti-vehicle mines were discovered. - These resemble the IBM-series mines used by the Armed Forces of Ukraine for remote mining of roads in the rear, particularly along the R-280 “Novorossiya” highway toward Crimea. 1/

Sen. Kelly: After 15 years working with Russian cosmonauts, I learned mission success was not their top priority. First was how things looked, second was who to blame, third was what they could steal. Mission success was somewhere fourth on the list.

It’s finally clear what Zelenskyy’s big prediction about ending the war by November is actually based on. Ukrainian media—citing sources straight from Zelenskyy’s office—dropped this gem: “Intelligence data from multiple agencies agrees that if Ukraine can seize the initiative, then in about six months the Russians will start running out of available resources and will be forced into serious negotiations.” As a Ukrainian, I wanted to believe it. I really did. “The Russians are about to run out of resources”—it sounds so reassuring. But then you look at the actual world. There’s a crisis in the Middle East that’s already triggered a global energy crunch. And if we’re talking human resources, Russia has at least seven times Ukraine’s population. This isn’t strategy. This is an episode of 95th Kvartal—that Zelenskyy’s comedy show—masquerading as military analysis. Wishful thinking dressed up as intelligence. Ukrainian strikes on Russian energy facilities deep inside the country? They deliver some tactical pain, no question. But strategically? They’ve never been decisive. Meanwhile, the European Union keeps trading with Russia—actually increasing its purchases of Russian energy. Moscow is dodging sanctions left and right, and Western aid to Ukraine is shrinking in multiple areas. And here’s the kicker: right now, the United States is basically the only mediator between Ukraine and Russia. Do you really think Washington is going to be laser-focused on cutting a deal in Ukraine while it’s in the middle of a mid-term election season? From September through November? Good luck with that. So this November deadline isn’t serious analysis. It’s hope marketing. It’s designed to keep Ukrainians from leaving the country and to give Western politicians something to sell to their own voters: “Just a little more aid, folks—victory is right around the corner.” But let’s be brutally honest. If no peace treaty is signed and the hot phase of this war isn’t over by September, this conflict is rolling straight into 2027. And no amount of comedy-sketch optimism has ever survived contact with reality. Never has. Never will. The people running this narrative aren’t stupid. They just think you are.

I still remember how shocked I was when I went to Poland and my two Polish friends had diametrically different views of the Ukrainians. One is exceedingly welcoming and supportive and almost thinks of them like kin. The other hates them every bit as much as the Russians. This is because Ukrainian ultranationalists were Nazi collaborators during World War II and they killed a lot of Jews and Poles. And unfortunately, it's impossible to simply expunge them because figures like Bandera and Andriy Melnyk remain central to Ukrainian Nationalism to this day. I don't see how we can deny it any further, when Zelensky gave Melnyk a state funeral as he was reburied in Kyiv. This has naturally caused a lot of outrage in Poland.

Innocent Russian kids in Luhansk, just peacefully studying. This is literally a military site, we should be neutralizing them ASAP.
