  1. This is not good publicity for the orcs self proclaimed invincible air defences. What do you say, Turkey?

    • Turkey says: “We own Ukraine, we own Zülünsky. The tatars and crimean ruSSians are the true natives of Ukraine. Either Ukraine becomes a shithole like Germany, France, the UK or ruSSia or we will invade ourselves!” 🙄

      • I’m not enthusiastic about the high numbers of turks here, neither, Mike, but may I remind you that you have voluntarily chosen the “shithole” Germany as your residence? And you seem to be as happy as a hog in a pigsty here, ain’t that so? 🐷

        • I live in a part of Germany that still is german/western. But my hood does not reflect the rest. BTW, i did not move here voluntarily. 😎

          • Uh, really? So, a new girlfriend grabbed you by the collar and dragged you here, kicking and screaming? 😁
