Ah I thought this was non political 
It is for me. I don't have any control over others (unfortunately).
I just try to post the occasional battlefield update(s) to get an idea about the military aspects.
That interests me. People's "opinions" about what is going on do not. For instance, I did not
watch the above video.
Bootie is involved in a lot of other stuff and doesn't have the time to micro-manage our posts.
There is an <ignore> button if one feels someone's posts are "out of line". I've used it very
sparingly, but I have used it. I think my "list" has two people on it.

I'm not impressed with the logic of the first answer to, an incredibly leading, first question. Neither am I convinced this is an impartial expert analysis but I guess there's not a lot of that around.

I get info from both sides and find the common threads. I stopped watching the opinion pieces a while back because it was just a case of pick your Kool-Aid.
HistoryLegends
Military summery
Kings and generals
Southfront.press (formaly southfront.org) - They cover many global conflicts, but like anything else, take it with a grain of salt.
DPA
And lots of news articles and reports from both independent and mainstream sources.
Anyway, I want to respect mTk and not steer this thread of course.

I think it's good to get a wide view of events and have a bit of friendly debate. Of course, we post stuff we like or just find pertinent or just entertaining. I might not like a particular content but I respect everyone here has an opinion and also a post doesn't always reflect that opinion exactly. I might post something and later find I don't like it after all. I also come to share opinions I didn't understand before or just realise my view was narrowed by my choice of media and getting to see other views is never a bad thing.
Politics inevitably rears its head occasionally but I feel this forum is respectful and way less polarised than many other platforms , we all have a common love of history to relate to I guess. History teaches us a lot.
Just saying, it's good to be able to disagree and still get on respecting each other and our diverse opinions. That's freedom for you

F-16s arrive in Ukraine.

I don't see how Ukraine can possibly win.
That said, they continue to extract a price.

Who knows how accurate some of those numbers are? However, they are the same ones
I've heard reported by other sources. It does paint a rather bleak picture for Putin.

They moved 15 klicks in an oil pipeline and came out behind the enemy, completely surprising them. It's one of the best infiltrations I've heard of in recent history. Turn on your captions.
So, according to this guy the war is going swimmingly. He runs a command command centre on his own does he?
