The estimated cost of a Kh-47M2 Kinzhal hypersonic missile is around US$10 million per unit.

Yes, the starting price. That why I stated 3+4 Kinshals = $70.

Thanks for the link.

“It was hard to be silent whilst Lebanon was attacked…”

Was it hard to be silent whilst Hezbollah fired thousands of rockets into Israel? Just asking.

It would be shameful to be silent whilst Palestinians are occupied.

Considering that flesh is still being ripped and squished and exploded, and that the wounds from a hot metal rod up someones rectum have yet to heal in the Public mind, forgiveness for long-ago history is irrelevant. The present counts immensely.

Dave, please turn the idiot box off, do a bit of reading, educate yourself on the number of children killed by Israel in just the last week, never mind last year, never mind the last 70 years. Also look up the number of Zionist children killed by the people whose land they occupy, do some arithmetic, no worry, no calculus involved, post your research results with every commentary henceforth.

If everything was forgiven, then nothing would change. In that ugly world, we may as well return to black slaves on cotton farms and sugar plantations, the Irish Famine, South Africa's Apartheid, the Holocaust, and the Vietnam War. I realise how exhausting it can be to be, more often than not, helplessly moral, but it's my personal decision to try.

Why do you consider Ukraine the aggressor here? It’s pretty clear to much of the world that it is Russia that is the aggressor.

HulitC, I've tried several times to be reasonable with you but we never get past first base. If you don't consider yourself biased, please start with the NATO aggression link I've sent you three times. I have made great effort to explain my thoughts. That's part of it. Let's have a logical to and fro.

Most of the reporting continues to pretend Russia is making great advances against Ukraine. While Russia is a much larger country, Ukraine is holding its own. Wishing for Ukrainian surrender to “stop the killing” is just that - a wish without reality. Russia has no intention of stopping although they may agree to an intermediate ceasefire to regroup while hanging on their current gains. Why would Ukraine agree to that?

I stated "Ukraine is nearing two important defeats in Vuhledar and Toresk." Why do you disagree?

It is a war of terrible attrition, so Russia is also advancing its victory by depleting poor Ukrainians and their weapons.

Yes, Ukrainians have fought well, at least those who have training. But that isn't stopping them dying, and the new recruits don't stand a chance.

Russia is not a bigger power, regards GDP or population, than Ukraine and NATO countries.

War is terrible. I wish Hell existed so that those who have used Ukraine for profit would be tortured forever.

Yes, that's his channel, and the video there is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhll2GK1Vqs

According to RT, Bumchik sarcastically wrote “I was walking and accidentally came out in Romania." He's been added to Ukraine's Kill List website.
