Who the hell are those degenerates in the Kremlin, representing the failed branch of humanity that russia is, to demand an apology for anything. They should be apologising to the Netherlands and Ukraine for their vile war crimes, at the very least. Arrogant bastards they are.

Igor Girkin posted about it on russian social media, v Kontakte (in Contact). He thought they shot down an An-26 transport (he wanted to kill as many Ukrainian soldiers in one go as possible). After he realised it was a Boeing he deleted the post, but I have a screenie. Translation is in Alt-Text.

Reports from Strelkov Igor Ivanovich [Girkin] 
17.07.2014 17:50 (MSK = Moscow Time) a message from the militia.
We have shot down a plane an AN-26 near the town of Tore. Now it is somewhere near the coal mine "Progress". We have warned not to fly in "our sky" and there's video proof of another "shot bird". The bird fell down behind the tailings dump. It didn't damage the residential area. The local people wheren't hurt. Also there is information about another shot plane, it looks like to be a Suknoi.

The Kremlin is full of degenerates. 💩 I was in Donetsk at the time. Igor Girkin kept bragging he would shoot down any Ukrainian aircraft (giving away that he had the capability with the BUK), he especially wanted to shoot down an "Antonov". He ended getting his Antonov, except it was a Boeing 777.

I thought they were mostly "student age". Anyway the rock meme reminds me of the "pet rocks" you could buy for $4 each in a box with straw in 1975. A million were sold and the inventor Gary Dahl became very wealthy. Originals are sold on eBay and Amazon etc. 😂 www.reddit.com/r/todayilear...

From the todayilearned community on Reddit: TIL about the craze of Pet Rocks in 1975. For about 6 months, they sold over one million Pet Rocks for $4 each. It was just a rock in a box with some straw ...

There is a price cap and it's legit to sell below that cap, but when ship to ship transfers happen, that's shady sanctions busting, as the oil is being sold above the cap (but below market price) & literally laundered by transferring it to a different legit insured ship, not part of the dark fleet.😵‍💫

Maybe Bulgaria should stop buying sanctioned oil. Romania & Bulgaria have a lot to answer for. It's in Ukrainian (not English as it says in text, just turn on auto-subs). Great investigation by @pravda.ua It's on the right time stamp. Oil trans-shipment in Bulgaria. 👇 youtu.be/seWZ6gJoDi4?...

yeap, touch screens in moving vehicles are not the most precise when it comes to activating a virtual button whist jostling around, you need the feel of a physical knob. I also wonder if fighter pilots in F-35 jets have the same complaint with that huge touch screen display in front of them.

Exactly, this is a very important point you mention. Ukraine was neutral from 1991 onward. But, the Kremlin shills and propagandists in western countries never mention this. They say stupid stuff like "Ukraine should be neutral", when it was neutral/non-aligned since the collapse of the USSR.

Echoes of Donetsk: August 2014 in Makiyivka in the so called fake "DNR". First pic is a police car either stolen or hijacked by a traitor out the front of my Ukrainian wife's flat, second is the DNR flag spray painted on a wall and crossed out. Read alt-text for details by clicking on the pics.
On the bonnet or hood of the police car is, ДПС (DPS) = ДОРОЖНЯ ПАТРУЛЬНА СЛУЖБА (Road Patrol Service). Licence plate on the car is "комендатура" (Komendatura = commandant's office). It's not an official Ukrainian number plate for a car, it's a DNR plate. For context, when Ukraine was occupied by Nazi Germany in World War II, the Germans had a "commandant's office" in every town or city, so it is ironic the russians, who wanted to "de-nazify" Ukraine, were using straight up Nazi nomenclature in 2014!Igor Girkin's separatists and/or traitors spray paint the flag of the fake DNR on a wall. At night Ukrainian patriots go out at great risk and cross it out and spray paint "НЕ БЫЛО" (NEVER WAS). The real start of the information war and resistance by the public on the streets of Makiyivka, Donetska Oblast, August 2014.

I'd love to ask Varoufakis to go the the wikipedia page "List of wars involving russia" and tell me, how many of the hundreds of wars, going back hundreds of years pre-1949 was "provoked" by "NATO expansion" and did NATO create Ivan the Terrible or Peter the Great. www.ukrainer.net/en/russian-w...

Yanis Varoufakis is an anti-NATO #vatnik POS who has even excused the invasion of us here in Ukraine as necessary because russia was "provoked". He doesn't get that NATO protection is not a threat to "russian security" but an impediment to its imperial ambitions. www.youtube.com/shorts/0fkS9...

It's bemusing and strange to me, that for these extremists, even Vuchich is not good enough. In an interview I saw, he was very offended that Serbia lost Kosovo and when asked about ethnic cleansing there, he deflected immediately to Ukraine/Crimea and totally dodged the question with what-aboutism.

A lot of Soviet gear is mediocre, but the Soviet SHORAD type MANPADS really could do the job well. I didn't know that fact about taking down Tomahawks successfully. There are videos of Ukrainian defenders doing the same thing to russian cruise fmissiles flying at low level, with Strela or Igla. 👍

Wow, that was a fire sale of military gear, what stood out was "...5.400 ручних бацача ракета, минобацача и бестрзајних топова, а на продају је и 26 вишецевних лансера ракета М-63." Possibly Soviet Strela (arrow) or Igla (needle) hand held rocket launchers, was useful gear here in Ukraine in 2022!

Huge win for the Serbian nationalists and Kremlin, I guess. They can bitch about the small autonomous territory of Kosovo they lost, but gained a lot more by stealing half of Bosnia into "Republika Srpska", including my late father's side of family, home town of Bosanski Novi, in 1992. NOVI GRAD. 😐

More actions, less talk fests. Air Marshall Greg Bagwell, a former RAF Tornado fighter pilot, also Sean Bell, former RAF Air Vice-Marshall and Harrier pilot, think this is operationally feasible. We have to trust the fighter pilots. BUT, big but, is it politically feasible, that is the question. 🙁

Our Ukrainian cats, that are IDC's (Internally Displaced Cats) from Donbas, used to get scared of our jet fighters, flying low and loud in west Ukraine doing CAP's to protect us from russian barbarism, but they got used to it. Iran is our enemy, sent 50,000 drones to russia to bomb us since 2023.

it's definitely time for Sky Shield Shaun. Let the NATO fighters take on protection in the parts of Ukraine where russia can't engage them in a shooting war with long range R-37M air to air missiles or air defences and that free's up the Ukrainian AF to concentrate on air defence in dangerous zones.

Retired RAF Air-Marshal (former Tornado pilot) Greg Bagwell states "Sky Shield" over Western/Southern Ukraine is possible. The engagement zone would be well out of range of R-37M AAM's and free up the Ukrainian AF to do more CAP's near the border (Kyiv) or front etc. www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5t9...

Of course, just like he endorsed his boy here in Ukraine, Viktor Yanokovich in 2004 & 2010 elections. Putin even traveled to Ukraine multiple times during the 2004 campaign, including trips to Kyiv and Crimea, to openly endorse and appear alongside his boy Yanukovych. That's some serious meddling!😵‍💫
