Crimean bridge: Who - or what - caused the explosion?
Russia has blamed a truck bomb - but examination of the footage seems to contradict that.

"Nah, we got you" - The US military-industrial complex, probably.
I imagine Ukraine will run low at some point, but I can't imagine the US will let them run out. There is way to many influential people making too much money off this for the US to quit pumping money into the system. Plus, Congress will use this to justify pushing the military budget over $1 trillion.

Man, there's some serious delusion going on in Russia.

Vlad, my brother in Christ, the US can attack Russia and wipe it off the map if it wanted to. We actually maintain our military equipment, train our soldiers, and spend $800 billion+ a year on the armed forces. However, the US really isn't interested in what would end up being World War III.

Some younger Russians expressed sadness about the missile strikes in civilian areas, but were not ready to put the blame squarely on the Kremlin.

I'm pretty convinced the bridge attack was a combination strike. I find it hard to believe a maritime drone could have set off the tanker train that far above from just a pressure wave and fire, particularly if the road bridge deck itself probably blunted the force of the explosion - this isn't GTA. I would guess that explosive devices were planted on the train and coordinated to look like a single attack.

For whatever reason there is opinion that US cares about Russia territories. For whatever reason some forget that in 90s US was only thing that stop our giant country from collapse into dozen armed to the teeth khanates with ******** leaders(like it happened in Central Asia). For whatever reason they think that our culture is very different from Western, even if pillars of our culture were french speaking Europeans.Man, there's some serious delusion going on in Russia.

Simple recipe: Deprive people of opportunity and basic freedoms, deny them access to free information, tell them constantly their enemies are out to get them and saturate the entire culture with brutality and you get a paranoid and hyper-nationalist population.
Iranians aren't buying it anymore. Hopefully Russians will follow suite.

No joke, it's a war now but it wasn't before. And Putin has been warning against NATO expansion for years, he did offer diplomacy before the invasion btw.
Dec 17, 2021 -The Guardian
"Russia issues list of demands it says must be met to lower tensions in Europe"
Given Ukraine's track record and Russia's our leaders should have done everything to avoid this war or get us involved in it in any way, specially when some key EU countries are heavily dependent of their energy(not like they weren't warned about it either!).

The war isn’t about NATO membership. It’s about Ukrainian independence. Putin is mad that his loyal puppet was kicked out of office 8 years ago, which meant he could no longer control Ukraine in the same way he controls Belarus. Putin believes Ukraine should not exist, it should belong to Russia, for historical reasons. Independence on paper? Sure. As long as their best friend is Russia.
