I understand. But it takes a lot of misery for a population who's votes don't matter much, to apply pressure on a regime. Taking 4 or 5 billion dollars per month from the oligarchs might be much more effective. It also cuts out Putin's personal money, if we are to believe that he takes 10% right off the top.

I think the sanctions are affecting both sides of the population. The only missing now are revolt of deserting soldiers and it would be back to the old times.

One thing that puzzles me is: why does RuAF keeps on making low flybys over territories that are not safe for them...

Su27 are mostly meant for air-superiority.
Su34 are fighter-bombers.

We both saw them operate over Syria and dropping their ordinance while remaining out of reach.

So... why isn't Russia applying the same approach in Ukraine as the one applied in Syria.

As a wise man once said: "bruh...!"

Probably due to active AD, not just in the Ukrainian side but also on the neighboring countries. I have a feeling that SAM batteries of surrounding neighbors are on high alert and scanning. So say someone from Poland launching a missile would be easier to hide. So stay low would make more sense as you have a better survival rate.

A long story short...
Hackers do a great job. A woman living in Russia used to believe that Ukrainians are Nazis and the war was the right thing to wage against them. After Russian propaganda channels were hacked and she saw Russian crimes in Ukraine, she called her Ukrainian relative in Berdyansk apologising and crying.

These soldiers might be key to starting a revolt down the line...

Ok, calm down Poland hehe. On a serious note, some Polish Air Force pilots might volunteer to fly those, one of the best way to get experience learn how to improve doctrines and transfer knowledge to their home units. Putting the "RED" on on Red Flag

Hmm, I wonder who has suitable deniable aircraft that could be purchased by ... somebody, shipped someplace, then given to somebody else. Probably far fetched, but I wouldn't rule it out.

Plenty of those, even the Malaysian Air Force have a squadron that they are trying to get rid off.

Yep. And then there's the image of a young, charismatic Ukrainian president putting his life at risk in the mud while Putin sits fuming in some far away bunker and hasn't been seen walking amongst his people for months.

Putin at his long table looks like a paranoid tyrant. Doesn’t even trust being within polonium range of his closest staff.

Poland is sending 1,4 billion $ worth of fighter planes for Ukrainian war effort, but western scumbags like BBC and Le Figaro only talks S**t how Poles are apparently mistreating non-whites. F**k them "media"

When you are so afraid of your own people you seat so far that the guy nearest you needs a camera for a zoom conversation with you

The thing is, the Russians don’t use any close air support aviation or fighters, just cruise missiles and SRBMs.
The Ukrainians could attack Russian helicopters until Russian fighters get involved. I don’t know how these ex-Polish fighters will be able to operate, as all Ukrainian airbases are either destroyed or heavily damaged. If some of them are made operational again, the Russians will spot it plus the fighters and fvck them up again with Kalibrs and Iskanders.
I know that NATO will be sharing intel again and pick vulnerable targets for these fighters, but hiding them will be a problem.

I am certain those red buttons on Putin's side control trap doors or ejection seats or something on the other side of the table.

I know, but they can be quickly attacked with cruise missiles and SRBMs again.

Are Mig-29s like some other fighters such as the Grippen and designed to use less than ideal airfields, or do they require high quality airfields? I know very little about aircraft, especially modern ones.

This is day 5. If the Russians had their air act together, the only planes currently flying over Ukraine should be Russian.

Do you really think the murder of a murderer is as reprehensible as the murder of an innocent man? I don't think it is.

Nope. However, the above is completely out of context wrt. to my response, which stands unchallenged.

Russia is making constant references to the Iraq War, as though that would give Moscow a right to break international law. Yes, that is a problem. Whataboutisms are effective because the dickheads who use them find them appropriate and cannot ever be reasoned with. Heck, historically speaking Moscow actually invented the whataboutism way back when Washington had accused the Bolsheviks of mass murder, and they responded by pointing to Tulsa.

Whataboutisms is BS and as you have rightly observed, it Can be effective against clueless airheads.
How often do you hear Putin say things that backfire on him ?
Now, compare that with Every Single One of the western leaders.
Putin is about rules, rules of law - starting with UN.
How much of US action is legal in that regard ?
Disagree with my view, plan, action ? Fair enough, let's talk then. Never happened !
Ongoing UA action - how many times did Putin point out how Minsk Agreement has been left hanging ?
No one gave a sh.t !

As if things aren't murky enough, we now have Strategic Ambiguity.

More funny sh1t from Poland.
