This is probably the primary reason Putin wants to shut off Youtube in Russia.

I can speak a bit of Slovak, and Polish is similar, but they're speaking really fast and I have zero technical vocabulary.  I did hear some familiar blurbs.  The first guy's intro was about another video they shot there.  The second guy I think said he was going to time how long it takes to get it started and moving.  The third guy said something like "here we have" as he jumps in the tank, and I heard "72" and "90."  After that, it's a blur of words.   

Sedemdesiatdva is crystal clear to my ear, but it's probably spelled a little different in Polish.

Hot wiring is probably how they start them.  They probably long since got drunk and lost the keys back in Mother Russia.

If you can't get it hot-wired, just radio in the Elite Farm Tractor Attack Squadron and give them the coords.

They never have.  But in this kind of war, where the Russians aren't garrisoning troops in newly-won territory, and are completely reliant upon armored battalions to take and hold territory, armor is their currency, and the Ukrainians are getting good at burning Russian money.

Oh they'll do that anyway.

In the meantime, Russian soldiers better start learning to eat their dead.

They actually didn't fire a true Hypersonic glide missile. It was just an Iskander under a Mig-25 - yes it's hypersonic...but so is almost every military missile...flies multiple times the speed of sound...

The Russians have won which part of this do you fail to understand?

It will be over by August

When are you people going to grow up and stop being dramatic?

The Ukrainians played big shot egged on by the EU regime and now have been hung out to dry

Its a great excuse to blame problems created by the same groups with their misguided policies who are now blaming putin for all of it..like they were not issues before the invasion.

High oil, no fertilizer, record inflation etc..

And some actually believe that bs as CNN/MSNBC spews it..
