It was only a matter of time. This could explain some of what's going on in Ukraine right now & why Russia seems desperate to find some kind of victory. Russia’s Economy Is Starting to Come Undone WSJ paywalled site, but the headlines are sufficient.

Yea, there's a few pics with here in USC gear on the sidelines.

Supposedly these are being used because the Russians don't have the optics/electronics to fix their more modern tanks. Kinda doesn't make much difference if you have thousands of convicts and conscripts to use to try and wear down the Ukrainians.

Immigrants? Seriously.....what else is there?

They have to pay the oligarchs & Generals first. Corruption pays well if you're at the top of the list.

They're trying to grind away at the Ukrainian forces so the UA/ZSU can't go on the counter-offensive. Ugly, but it may be effective. Russia likely knows they don't have the reserves to stop a full on armored assault (assuming the UA/ZSU can execute such a thing). It takes a lot of precise...

They did convict Mladic & Milosevic. Milosevic died before they convicted him but they continued anyway. Those 2 were butchers in the Yugoslav wars.

I remember that so well. Russians claimed the Ukrainians shot it down. Then a video appeared showing the BUK/SA-11 unit on the back of a flatbed heading back towards Russia, minus one missile. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsbC8yDeGUw

Depends on which "oldies". Some of today's "oldies" came out long after I was grown. 😳 🧓

You know you're getting old when there's stuff you grew up on showing up in museums. :)

Seems lots of items needed replacing in evacuated areas due to corrosion from the gas. Dedly killer left its mark. 😳

Graniteville train disaster. I used to visit that factory for work and was very familiar with that area. People got gassed with chlorine. :(

This is why Poland, Estonia, Latvia, & Lithuania have been so generous to help out Ukraine. They realize they could be next and depending on US politics, they may be on their own.

Russia has been exposed for what they really are. There's a reason putin hates the west.

...yet they keep coming. Who needs tanks when you got convicts? Easy way to make room in their prisons for political enemies.

But to what degree? How long after vax did they get exposesd? How many shots? Where the shots given before some of the later variants/mutations (Alpha/Delta?Omicron)? See....there are so many variables in this when trying to determine what level of immunity those people got from what kinds of...

And there were efficacy levels posted where it was known from the start that they would offer limited effectiveness for some people. I read where some people needed up to 6 tries to achieve immunity in some Hepatitis situations. While some people allegedly already had immunity to the CV due to...

Was there ever an explanation for this? Killed at different times?

All my friends who lost family members: none of them were vaxxed. I know for sure at least one of them was anti-vax. Let's not forget some of those (5) "conservative/anti-vaxxer" talk show hosts who died of the CV. 😳 This link is to a paywall site, but it shows the date. Might find more...

It's also easy to forget the status of hospitals & health care workers who were on the front lines. If I can take a shot that may keep me out of the ICU, then it seemed the responsible thing to do.
