Read the comments on this one. Too funny. It starts with a debate on what kind of car he was in. Some say a WRX, others Mustang but I'm with the Charger crowd. Things really get funny talking about this guys haircut. Marine Corps. Never change...we luv you just the way you are.

Some say we fought an entire war because the President at the time was mad because this dude threatened his father....

US Military bases are being probed. I fully expect a catastrophic incident involving teams of active shooters soon...

Hamas is on the convert or die tip...

Hamas terrorists: “Our issue is not just Palestine, our issue is killing every non-Muslim. We will pursue Jews and Christians all over the world. Either they convert to Islam or we’ll kill them!”

Hamas must go.

Convert or die? I guess that means we must kill them first huh?

This lady is in for a rough ride....I pity her life choices...

Gabbi always had "masculine" traits but you can tell she dialed up to 1000 on the roids. Its to the point where female MMA fighters won't fight her and I really can't blame them ONE BIT! This mixed gender fight is gonna be wild.

Rough day for the Ukrainian push into Kursk?

Today was probably the worst day for the Armed Forces of Ukraine since February 2022.

Let's walk through it.

The Russians started the day off by destroying two HIMARS launchers at their hide site in Sumy. This has likely ended GMLRS support for the Kursk operation temporarily. pic.twitter.com/wNLYHAWxHz

Still don't get this offensive. Still seems fool hardy to me. Regardless I expect another stalemate and then a withdrawal to fortify their lines inside Ukraine cause this is looking like a bridge too far.

B-Roll: 3rd AA Bn. conducts ACV launch, recovery drills

 

U.S. Marines with 3rd Assault Amphibian Battalion, 1st Marine Division, operate Amphibious Combat Vehicles during launch and recovery drills with the USS Germantown (LSD 42), a Whidbey Island-class dock landing ship, off the coast of Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California, Aug. 7-9, 2024. The sustainment drills allowed the Marines to increase their proficiency in amphibious maneuvering by practicing launch and recovery procedures. (U.S. Marine Corps video by Lance Cpl. Logan Courtright)

Large Scale, Long Range Air Assault to JRTC @ Night

101 Combat Aviation Brigade sling loads an Infantry Squad Vehicle (ISV) for the 2nd Mobile Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) at the Joint Regional Training Center (JRTC) at Ft. Johnson, LA as part of a large scale, long range air assault (L2A2) that the 101st launched from Ft. Campbell, KY to JRTC on the night of August 15, 2024. L2A2 means delivering one brigade combat team over 500 nautical miles in one period of darkness, arriving as a cohesive element where the enemy least expects it, capable of fighting behind enemy lines for 14 or more days.

So the Army is saying that they can transport a brigade of their Screaming Eagles 500 miles behind enemy lines and that they capable of sustained combat for 14 days before being relieved or linking up with follow on forces? That's some Marine Corps shit! That's some MEU shit....or used to be USMC MEU shit!

Berger gave it all away in order to chase his China whale and its gonna cost the Marine Corps.  

The Pentagon will not tolerate a void and the US Army happily picked up everything Berger gleefully threw away.

That bastard thought he could see the future but he couldn't see how fucked up and arrogant he really was.

US Army is making 7th ID part of the ground force designated for the Pacific (25th ID is in play too)...

 

I'm on the outside looking in but it appears that the US Army is taking hardcore changes to make itself the decisive ground force in the Pacific.

Note that I did not say Korea, but the Pacific.

The 2nd ID (which is headed toward being understrength) is still tasked with the fight in Korea, but seems to be off the table for other areas.

The same definitely can't be said for the 25th ID which was the first Army unit to make a full throated swing there.  Now we can the 7th ID to the mix.

So what does that leave us with?

25th and 7th IDs dedicated to a potential fight with China (biased toward that fight?), 2nd ID tasked with Korea and 11th Airborne taking on the arctic fight.

These bastards are out Marining the Marine Corps.

The Army can tailor forces to regional fights.  The Marine Corps must be ready to swing to any fight in any region at anytime.

Force Design was a huge mistake.

The Army got started late but ya got to give the fuckers credit. Once they took a beat and a heading they're on track.

Let's get real about the Ukrainian invasion of Kursk...

The narratives that I'm hearing/reading about the Ukrainian invasion of Kursk has me spinning...

*  We've heard about manpower shortages on the Ukrainian side.

*  We've heard about entire battlegroups being encircled by the Russians.

*  We've heard that the Ukrainians need more of basically everything including retired F-16 pilots not to mention more artillery, anti-air missiles, etc...

*  We've seen a fool hardy counter offensive before.

So why isn't anyone questioning this move?

Why am I on an island wondering how a force that has had to take to the streets to force conscription is all of a sudden able to gather forces to take and hold territory?

A reader chided me (low key) for wondering if this thing is a PR stunt.

I'm still there so tell me how I'm wrong.

Is the Ukrainian "Kursk Offensive" just a PR stunt???

NOTE! I realize this guy is a sympathizer of the Russians but we can't just rely on Western news media to get the real deal on this stuff. Its up to you to decide but let's be honest. The idea that the Ukrainians could muster forces to launch an offensive at this stage of the fighting seems far fetched. To be even more blunt it seems more like a PR stunt than an actual action to change the course of the war. I'm smelling another ill timed offensive instead of a well conceived battle plan.

Wait what? Ukrainian forces without air, artillery or armored support are being picked off wholesale by Lancet attack drones???

 

Ukrainian troops with no air, artillery or armored support are being picked off wholesale in Kursk.

lancet attack drones are easily identifying and destroying the NATO light vehicles being sent forward on what are essentially suicide missions.

Would Russia use battlefield tactical nukes to destroy Ukrainian forces on its own land?

You read the headline.

I think its possible.  It would stun and frighten the West and yet NO ONE COULD PLAUSIBLY do a thing about it.

They used tactical nukes on their own land against an enemy force.

How do you justify attacking a country for nuking its own land? NATO would be on the sidelines.  The US could posture but in the end do nothing.

The only real question, because I'm sure its been considered is if its worth it.

Do the Russians have neutron bombs?  High radiation levels that should rapidly dissipate if I remember correctly.  This sounds almost tailor made especially since structural damage would be limited.

What do ya'll think?

Don't know if this is correct but if so then modern Islam has subjugated its believers...

The traditional dress is so colorful and almost stunning. I wonder how and why modern Islam has gone to the "all black" attire? Additionally I have to wonder why we no longer here about the stress between Shia and Sunni.
