IMHO there's only one reason to kill: immediate self defense or defense of others. Defining whole groups of people as "evil" is evil. And stupid. And the only thing worse than a stupid evil person is a stupid evil person with power.

Which demonstrates, SECOND, that you could be making the same mistake. And by posting this as if you're free of this error, it also shows that you're utterly incapable of self reflection.

Does a Ukrainian drone operator ask permission before killing a Russian? Never, and that is NOT PLAYING GOD. Does the Ukrainian ask the Russian for permission before killing the Russian? No, and that is also NOT PLAYING GOD. The Ukrainian war is NOT a TV police procedural nor a Marvel comic book movie where killing is justified for "only one reason: immediate self defense or defense of others."

For most of the war, a circle of generals decided which companies got paid to arm Ukraine. They named the suppliers, they named the models, and the money followed the list.

Then the defense minister Mykhailo Fedorov took that power away and made the companies compete on price and on how their weapons performed at the front. Three weeks ago, the minister was fired. Now, the people who did well under the old list are pushing to get it back.

What makes this more than a lobbying fight is that its two loudest voices agree on almost nothing else: Fedorov, who says he believes the overhaul cost him his job, and an anti-corruption watchdog who owes him no favors. Both say the reform may not outlast him.

What rides on it is real money, and Ukraine has little to spare. It now pours almost all its own revenue into defense, while the West covers nearly the entire civilian budget, roughly $50 billion in 2026. Every dollar lost to a rigged contract is one that never reaches a front already too short of soldiers to absorb the waste.

OMG, you STILL don't get it!

Do you still believe that someone spouting into a camera is providing FACTS?

Dood, I could get in front of a camera and spin a convincing yarn about ... a killer outbreak, a swarm of invading bugs, whatever.... and show flashes of irrelevant pictures and you'd never know that it was completely fabricated.

YOUR filter for whether something is true or not is whether it aligns with what you want. That's a piss poor way of learning the truth.

FACTS, dood.

Are you at war with "Trumptards"? More importantly, are "Trumptards" at war with YOU?

No.

Face it, dood. You just like the idea of killing people.

You can't admit to facts. I get that. Nonetheless, I'm going to post them, and time will show all you've done by defending all things Russia is bury you head in the sand. And the people speaking into microphones that I listen to are honestly trying to report accurately. Not so much with you aye comrade?

THGR, you're posting NARRATIVE.

Here's another narrative.

Disastrous End to Zelensky's 40-Day Operation Exposes a Dwindling Ukraine
Simplicius
Aug 03, 2026

Today is the final day of Zelensky’s 40-day Special Military Operation, and it has come with ominous undertones. The carefully-constructed facade of success that was meant to drive the orchestrated PR campaign has been violently torn away to reveal a frail Ukraine trembling on its last hind legs.

Russia’s recent attack on Kiev revealed a catastrophic situation as Ukraine no longer has any Patriots to stop Russian ballistic missile attacks. The interception rate admitted-to by Kiev was as follows:

1/27 ballistic missiles of the 9M723 OTRK “Iskander-M” / KN-23;

0/2 anti-radar missiles Kh-31P;

0/4 anti-ship cruise and hypersonic cruise missiles 3M55 “Onyx” / 3M22 “Zircon”;

In total, 83.2% of UAVs have been neutralized.

Top Ukrainian analyst channels now predict that Russia will soon go up from producing 70 ballistic missiles per month to over 150. This will leave Ukrainian infrastructure devastated as no current hope even exists for solving the Patriot problem, and no other available system besides the Patriot can engage Russian Iskanders.

Zelensky and his people know this, which is why now at the tail end of his failed 40-day operation he has begun begging Russia for a new ceasefire:
