  1. Is he serious when he says that they don't know how they could do that remotely wipe a hard drive on a reaper? The guy flying the thing in Nevada has constant communication with the reaper, The cameras record the hard drives they just did a remote wipe! And as far as the SU-27s, why does everyone not understand why they were dumping fuel on it? They were trying to catch it on fire! dump jet fuel on it and the propellers engine might catch it on fire or they fly by and hit the afterburner on it! Why does everyone not understand why they were dumping fuel on this thing?

  2. Russians have a "peasant mentality" and are used to taking orders from above.So don`t look for a spontaneous uprising by the Russian privates.Especially if they have families that will be threatened.Russian Authority always put the pressure on to get the result they want.
    Don`t people read Russian history?

  3. Video shows the prop on the drone being damaged after the last intercept so the plane must have hit pretty hard. If the prop was damaged that means the tail must have been severely damaged too in order to even reach the prop.

    Omg, please take a Putin double, a President Zelenskyy double (or himself after the war) plus other important characters involved and make a James Bond movie with all of them!
    It should end with the idea of the commentator's username "Putin will hang in the middle of the Kremlin" and it should be done by the Russians themselves … maybe with Ukrainians, Poles, Georgians, Chechens and other formerly suppressed ex-iron curtain communities helping them to find the right ways to accomplish this goal!

  5. The Republicans are saying that Ukraine should not be the main focus China is. They are not saying that we need to cut off all aid. To Europe, Ukraine is the most important issue which it is. Trump is a narcists conceited jerk. This is not all the Republican Party. Only the extreme are.
