They had one near Whelans/Flannerys direction which wasn’t a patch on the flagship one off temple bar

They are releasing a Chicken Kiev with coddle as the filling in celebration
Very interesting contribution by Putin’s former economic advisor Andrei Ilarionov on Newsnight there. Says it has been obvious Putin wanted full control over Ukraine since 2012 and that he will not stop at Ukraine but will move on to the Baltic countries, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary.
Says NATO must implement a no fly zone and that if done so, Putin will back off. Without saying it he basically stated that Putin’s attitude is that KGB saying about bayoneting somebody “if you find mush, push, if you find steel, run”.
Can Ukrainians work here immediately on arrival if they wish?
Yes
That’s good. Hopefully plenty can get here and settle here quickly
My mother told me tonight she has volunteered to take people in. Not sure she has thought through the logistics really but her heart is in the right place
Thats brilliant
Fuck sake. Absolutely shameless.

Putin will fill his togs when he gets wind …

(not to be confused with Gen. Valery Gerassimov, of the often misconstrued Gerassimov Doctrine)
Claimed by Ukrainian military intelligence. Confirmed a Russian source,
This is not the worst part. In the phone call in which the FSB officer assigned to the 41st Army reports the death to his boss in Tula, he says they’ve lost all secure communications. Thus the phone call using a local sim card. Thus the intercept.
His boss, who makes a looong pause when he hears the news of Gerassimov’s death (before swearing), is Dmitry Shevchenko, a senior FSB officer from Tula. We identified him by searching for his phone (published by Ukrainian military Intel) in open source lookup apps.
In the call, you hear the Ukraine-based FSB officer ask his boss if he can talk via the secure Era system. The boss says Era is not working. Era is a super expensive cryptophone system that @mod_russia introduced in 2021 with great fanfare. It guaranteed work “in all conditions”
The idiots tried to use the Era cryptophones in Kharkiv, after destroying many 3g cell towers and also replacing others with stingrays. Era needs 3g/4g to communicate.
The Russian army is equipped with secure phones that can’t work in areas where the Russian army operates.
They have 90% of their troops engaged here and they still haven’t taken control and they will all be required to maintain control if they get control. Their is no chance of them moving further.
Kyiv before or after bombing ?

The Kremlin has threatened to cut off gas supplies to Europe and warned that the price of oil could rocket to $300 a barrel if the western allies step up their economic war against Russia by banning energy imports.
As European leaders prepare to meet at Versailles on Thursday to discuss weaning the continent off Russian gas and oil, Moscow warned that any such move could be a catastrophe for the global market.
Why aren’t the Arabian oil producing nations stepping up to fill the hole in the market here?
I know prices have sky rocketed which is probably great news for them but do they not want the slice of the pie that is Europe as a market?
