My how things have changed...

Today Ukraine's President did multiple Zoom calls that were broadcast to major Euro cities around the world and tens of thousands of people showed up to watch them. Tomorrow he does one to talk to the United States Senate.

Just think about that for a bit. You can use a frickin cell phone to broadcast live around the world. Take that Putty Poot.

... longer.

The reason why Putrid is going after civies is he can't beat the UKR military unless they get high altitude bombers and even that is tricky.

They don't need a no fly zone just more long and short range AA and Javelins.

Oh

and FOSINT ... people online are getting news about mechanized, surface water and air movements at the same time the M$M is.

Jus ... yeah, things have changed

the technology today...

I'm rather surprised he can still broadcast from Ukraine, but there are lots of international media all over Ukraine, unlike Russia itself. Protest against Putin in Russia and get either 15 years in jail or get conscripted into the Russian military. Wtf. Way to go, Vlad. Sad country you have there.

It looks like Putrid is having meetings with his generals only over Zoom now. I wonder where he is? He could already be dead.
