    Game changer.



    The US says it will support providing advanced fighter jets including US-made F-16s to Ukraine and also back training Ukrainian pilots to fly them.

    A senior White House official said President Biden had told G7 leaders in Japan of the decision.

    President Volodomyr Zelensky, who has requested fighter jets for months, said the decision would "greatly enhance our army in the sky".

    US approval for the scheme means other nations can export their F-16s.

    This is because the US legally has to approve the re-export of equipment purchased by allies.

    The US would "support a joint effort with our allies and partners to train Ukrainian pilots on fourth-generation fighter aircraft, including F-16s, to further strengthen and improve the capabilities of the Ukrainian Air Force", the official said.

    "As the training takes place over the coming months, our coalition of countries participating in this effort will decide when to actually provide jets, how many we will provide, and who will provide them."

    Right now it makes sense, heard a news report that Russia's deputy foreign minister was kicking off about F16's - I was like what's he on about, we are not supplying them - I hadn't seen that latest update.

    Reports now of fighting within Russian territory. A village in Belgorod has been shelled.

    Russia claim it is a Ukrainian attack, Ukraine say it is rival paramilitary groups fighting local authorities.

    If it was a Ukrainian attack, it really doesn't make much sense, first of all fighting on Russian soil would be massive, massive news and an extremely intense operation. Second, to use military resources to fight some local authorities in a small insignificant part of Russia when you're gearing up to push towards Crimea?

    Honestly, I truly hope Russia is not on the brink of a civil ****ing war. That is the last thing anyone needs. Just pop Putin in the head and be done with it.

    A Russian soldier ran up to a nun walking down a sidewalk in Petrograd. Out of breath he asked, “Please, may I hide under your skirt? I'll explain later.” The nun agreed. A moment later two politsya ran up and asked: “Sister, have you seen a soldier?” The nun replied, “He went that way.” After the politsya ran off the soldier crawled out from under her skirt and said, “I can't thank you enough, Sister. You see, I don't want to go to Ukraine.” The nun said, “I understand completely.” The soldier added, “I hope I'm not rude, but you have a great pair of legs!” The nun replied, “If you had looked a little higher, you would've seen a great pair of balls, too. I don't want to go to Ukraine either."

    Some of them looked like they were trying to surrender.

    Not convinced it's real.

    I did wonder if it was real.

    So yeah it's either not real or we are becoming dehumanised when we start putting battles showing the killing of someone's son, father, uncle, brother, whatever, being posted on social media.

    Not having a go at sucky btw, I'm talking in general.

    De humanising us
    Social media has created narcissism to a worrying level…that’s just a long term path to destruction for the individual
    snowflake options are promoted in order to weaken the warrior in the human being
    Confusing our kids, the next generation, with men wanting to be women, women wanting to be men
    Nothing spiritual is promoted, these things are portrayed as boring
    We live in a time of the weakest leadership, they are like spitting image caricatures that we used to watch back in the day but they’ve come to life
    Introducing AI

    There seems to be a plan in action…don’t ask me specifically why but to me it seems like a structured process is well under way to create certain types of human beings out of the forthcoming generations.

    Agree with brb, very sad video.

    Not to mention, what are those poor ****ers even wearing? They're in normal every day clothes with helmet and vests. When he kills the fella with a beard, who looks directly at him, he is wearing trainers ffs.

    Not sure if you was about in ww2 but weve since had the dawn of the mobile phone camera so we're bound to see more graphic footage of the actual horrors of a real ground war.

    I think its real but i dont know for sure

    Theres an old clip film called banned from tv, ive seen 1, 2 and 3 but there's more now and I've heard those later ones have lots of stuff from iraq and Afghanistan i dont need to see that tbh so aint gone looking for them but the first 3 were truly horrific, real deaths on camera.

    I've watched it a few more times and if you watch the last guy being neutralised, you'll see the rounds going into his helmet. It's real.

    Why would you film yourself killing a guy in the trenches, which is bad enough, then to make matters worse, someone then loads it on to social media?

    The only purpose of filming anything would (or should) be for military purposes.

    Surely these pictures are in breach of the Geneva Convention. I don't really see any correlation with ww2 a mobile phone which should not be in the trenches other than for taking commands.

    Whatever next eh....the guy that killed him, rings his mum on the dead persons phone and says your son in dead.

    Officially, the hope is for some of these videos and such to reach Russians who are denying the existence of the war.

    Which is surprisingly a decent amount of people
