Obviously the second most important news of the day so far is the strike on Sevastopol. Something big happened

and the posts by @CovertShores and others have more videos showing both Russian SAM's flying and an Mi24/35 dropping ordnance on the sea. Now both SAM's and helos can be "all show no go" but it could also mean a multi-domain attack on the BSF,

In particular that the city murdering terrorship Admiral Makarov may have been hit. This ship has been reported hit multiple times so I am wary, but man I want it too be true. This ship's only function is the infliction of terror on the Ukrainian population. It is crewed by
war criminals and pirates. Joining the Moskva as a reef would be too little recompense for the evil she has inflicted. Hundreds of missiles fired and doubtful she has killed even 1 Ukrainian wearing a military uniform. So lets look a little bit closer at the problem the Russian's
face. First if it was an attack from the skies, it looks like the S-400 complex has some unresolved issues: what air defense doing? This is supposed to be the boss SAM system for Russia a combination Patriot/THAAD type system able to not only protect wide areas but use its range
and radar to conduct area denial missions. The BSF getting bonked on the head under skies protected by S-400 is big news. Then again if the attack came from under the sea it is also big news. It means what ever ASW defenses: mines, acoustic detection, aircraft, guard ships/subs
are not enough and a drone penetrated the harbor. Ot as I mentioned earlier it could be both in a multi-domain attack. If it was did both attacks succeed, or only 1? Any or all however is a panic moment in Moscow. The attacks follow close on the heels of the US revealing it is
sending B-61-12 free fall nuclear bombs to Europe. Now these are mostly for show with out the bombers to deliver them but they do point something out: Russia our tech can penetrate your defenses. Not just Sevastopol but Moscow and Murmansk. What is that Russian saying escalate to
deescalate. Yeah, mix that with standard American: peace through superior firepower and you get what Russia is looking at now. Russia has shown herself to lack the skill, tech, numbers or IQ to match Ukraine and western weapons. Taking on NATO directly is several orders of
magnitude more difficult. That kind of strategic wakeup call is unlikely to do good things for comity among Putin's inner circle. Prizorghin and Kadyrov are pushing war and battling with Shoigu/MoD/Lapin etc. Based on the talking heads you can begin to see the fear setting in.
Moscow is going to increasingly feel like Berlin in 1944. Everyone knows its lost, but no one wants to say it aloud and be denounced and strung up on a meat hook for defeatism. Sadly Berlin 44 is a far different animal than Berlin 46. During 1944 the victims of aggression were
still dying and in 46 the dying had ended. For Ukraine its still 1944. The #GenocideOfUkrainians is ongoing because #russiaisaterrorisstate. Western aid is helping move us closer to Berlin 46 and a new Marshall Plan for Ukraine but we are not there yet. So continue to reach out
to your leaders the way I do to @JohnBoozman, @SenTomCotton, and @RepFrenchHill and tell them to keep the weapons flowing but be prepared to keep after them to keep the aid flowing once Russia is defeated. Millions of Ukrainians will be counting on us. Well, are counting on us.
its why we have to keep donating to charities we trust like @MriyaAid, @UkraineAidOps, @3xR_team and @U24_gov_ua. We also have a duty to oppose the trolls, I have no doubt the seeds of the counter narrative to the BSF strike are already being filtered out by Kleptograd.
Us #NAFO #Fellas are going to have our hands full fighting the dis-info. The sudden return of pro-genociders like Ritter are not going to help the situation at all. His horror-fiction piece yesterday blaming Ukraine for #Bucha despite the evidence is truly evil. He is a Judas,
Benedict Arnold, or Quisling. He sold out western values to Russia. Was it silver, little bodies, or just revenge for being outed as a sexual predator who knows and it doesn't really matter. What matters is that he is part of a disturbance that can be felt across humanity.
millions have been seduced and corrupted by the hate flowing from the Sith Lord wannabe Emperor in Moscow. This however brings up the most important part of my essay!

Russia can have the Ritters and Seagulls, We have Mark Hamil. My inner geek is over the moon. I am literally on the same side as part of the same rag tag band of rebels fighting the Evil Empire as Luke Skywalker. Mark Hamil is so much more than Luke as a person, but the symbology
of it.... If the Ukrainians are the X-wing pilots I am nothing more than a pro-rebel villager but we are on the same side. There is a third piece of news today. Not really new news, its a couple days old but mriyareport.org is live. This is the webhome for the twitter
space @MriyaReport which is a go too source for news and expert opinion on Ukraine. Please give them a follow. Until Ukraine wins on Ukraine's terms: Slava Ukraini! #UkraineWillWin #StarWars #ukrainecounteroffensive #UkraineRussianWar
@mfa_russia <--- still losing and Ukraine is not the droid you were looking for.
