UPDATE 2:40 PM SEE BOTTOM -- A new barrage of missile strikes was reported across Ukraine on Friday morning, damaging energy infrastructure in several regions and killing at least two people.
Local officials reported shelling in Ukraine’s capital city of Kiev, as well as in the northeastern city of Kharkiv and the central city of Kryvyi Rih, urging residents to take cover. Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense said Russia launched 76 air and sea-based cruise missiles at its neighbor, of which 60 were destroyed.
Two people were killed and at least five more were injured in a strike on a residential building in Kryvyi Rih.
Ukraine’s energy minister German Galuschenko said that nine generation facilities were damaged in the eastern and southern portions of the country, as Russia continued to target the country’s energy infrastructure. The entire city of Kharkiv has lost power in the strikes, according to its regional governor.
The renewed shelling came just hours after the Pentagon officially announced that it would provide Ukrainian soldiers with arms and joint maneuver training, beginning in January. The Pentagon said it expects to train about 500 soldiers a month.
Russia also warned the U.S. against sending the Patriot air defense system to Ukraine on Tuesday, amid reports that such an announcement could occur next week.
“If this is confirmed, we will witness yet another provocative step by the administration, which can lead to unpredictable consequences,” the Russian Embassy in Washington, D.C., said in a statement.

That is one of Austin’s brilliant “Lets Make Russia Happy” moves….
Being that close to the excitement the girls
sounded a bit concerned.
Good grief, who wouldn't be!
following your 'insider advise'.
If I was Hal I would block your sorry cheap ass from this website……PERMANENTLY.
Bet he watched the complete Netflix programming of those faux royals, Whimpy & Whiney aka Harry & Meghan. smh
At the time, you and others were told your payments were no longer being made, and the email telling you this asked you to change your payment method. Many did. YOU did not.
So here we are, 23 months later, you wander back onto my site and make a stupid remark about financial advice that I do not provide, while at the same time, welching on your responsibility to me.
Your access is now shut off for non-payment.
Just got me a few hundred.

“The Goldback solves a 2,600 year old problem in that gold can be spent in small, interchangeable increments.”
A Goldback Transaction Calculator is on site.
Haggai 2:8 The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts.
So......$3.86/goldback (today). 1000 goldbacks/oz-gold.
So....today....$3860/oz....if you buy gold impressed in ''goldbacks'.
Meanwhile....APMEX has 1oz gold eagles for $1993/oz.
What a (cough) .....steal......
The smaller the denomination, the greater the premium. The value of coins in circulation is always greater than the value of the metal making the coin. When the value of the metal is greater than the value of the currency, the coins get melted for scrap, such as happened with the copper penny.
It is reasonable and should be expected the goldback value is greater than the price of 1/1000 Tr oz of bullion.
The question is, especially since it is not legal tender, what is a reasonable premium? This is not a trivial question to answer.
The Ukes have a better system than we do?
Huh
I’ve finally reached the conclusion that Russia has bitten off more than it can chew. These missile attacks aren’t accomplishing anything. If they can’t advance against Ukraine on the ground or bring Ukraine to the negotiating table with its missile attacks then the last thing they are going to do is strike the UK and USA. Russia isn’t suicidal. They will pull back to their original border and leave Donbass before they commit suicide in a nuclear war. I think the bluffs are up now. I want to see Russia win but it’s become clear to me they simply aren’t willing.
Russia hasn't even begun.
The Lord will use them to fulfill prophecy IMHO.

The Kremlin will get acquainted with the ideas of Kissinger with great interest, Peskov said
Peskov: Kremlin will study with interest Kissinger's ideas on settlement in Ukraine

All the way back to the War Between the States.
Exactly, here it is in the Bible, prophecies against America-Babylon:
For, lo, I will raise and cause to come up against Babylon an assembly of great nations from the north country: and they shall set themselves in array against her; from thence she shall be taken: their arrows shall be as of a mighty expert man; none shall return in vain. (Jer 50:9)
Arrows = missiles.
Key statement right there. Getting prepared is good for any possibility, but especially what looms ahead on the war front. Multiple ways to heat the house, multiple ways to defend one's home, multiple sources of power, multiple ways to communicate, all good to consider now, while there is time.
We are all gonna die from old age here waiting for these Russian assholes to step up and DO SOMETHING. Your outlooks are just a pipe dream. Russia aint going to hit this shithole country. Or the limeys either. We just have to sit here and wait for zog to turn the attacks on the people here now. Russia aint gonna do it for us. This shit country needs to be bombed from coast to coast and destroy all the nazis that have been holed up here since 1947. When gringo moved them all here now we live under this nightmare from them. And Russia still does NOTHING. We will be waiting a long long time for Russia to destroy this shithole. A long long time. They aint gonna do our job for us. All this in a country with millions of guns available???? No wonder they laugh at gringos and anglow saxon SCUM.
FIND A CONSTRUCTIVE WAY TO DEAL WITH YOUR RAGE.
Tell us how Russia would bomb ONLY THE NAZIs that have been here since WW2.
Once they start bombing, you and your family are targets also. Is that what you want? You want your kids and wife dead? I sincerely think not.
Are you pulling it out in public again?
They want you to buy solar panels made in China. At the same time Bill wants to dim the sun.
Coo Coo for Coco Puffs, or is it just me.
"Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense said Russia launched 76 air and sea-based cruise missiles at its neighbor, of which 60 were destroyed."
Hey Guys, I just don't believe anything coming out from the mouths of Ukrainian authorities.
IF it's true that 60 out 76 Russian missiles where knocked out their flight path, then why is the Ukrainian electric infrastructure bening destroyed by Russian missiles on a daily bases.
Seems as though NATO does not understand the definition of insanity.
Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
More sleepless nights to come.
