Ukraine Russia War Status update - Col Doug Macgregor The whole thing is on the verge of collapse
Judging Freedom ^ | November 28, 2022 | Colonel Douglas MacGregor

MacGregor: Up until this time at night we have had freezing but during the day it has gone back up to 40 even 50 degrees. It has to drop below freezing and stay that way for at least two weeks. So if it is now below freezing and stays that way you can do the math. Your looking for something happening no earlier than the 10th; probably no later than the 19th of December. And you're talking about concentrations of Russian troops all the way around the country. We've accounted now formally, these are people who sit in front of your monitors that control satellites, and the intelligence community says it has accounted for 540,000 Russian troops.

And of that 540,000 we are talking about 5,000 armored fighting vehicles of which at least 1,500 are tanks, probably another thousand self propelled artillery, the rest infantry fighting vehicles. A thousand rockets, missiles, tactical ballistic missiles, your so called drones (unmanned attack systems.) That doesn't even begin to address the hundreds of fixed wing aircraft, hundreds of helicopters,. The helicopters will move troops obviously. There will be some ground support. Hundreds of fixed wings operating as ground support, but also bombers now. We've begun to see the use of bombers now which is something we've done for years. They're now beginning to do it and they all have precision munitions.

Judge: What you have just described must be understood and known by President Zelensky, by Ukrainian intelligence, by American intelligence, by the State Department, by the Pentagon and by the White House. What are they going to do about it?

MacGregor: Yes, well what they're trying to do is ship more equipment to the Ukrainians. The problem is the Ukrainian casualties have been horrendous; particularly over the last few months. There was an article today in the Euro News and I'm told there was another one in the New York Times describing the very, very heavy casualties. Of course the Big Lie that is always accompanied the bad new is well the Russians have taken heavy casualties, too. Nonsense, the Russians have not. That's the difference; when you are killing your enemy at a 10 to 1 ratio; which is about where it is right now in Southern Ukraine, you're not hurting at all. And the Russians aren't running out of anything. The Ukrainians are running out of everything...ammunition, spare parts, fuel, you name it. The soldiers, most of the best troops are dead or wounded and the people they are shoving forward in the defensive positions are untrained reservists. They say, well we sent 10,000 more troops to England for three weeks, you can't train a man to do much of anything in three weeks or even five weeks. You need time and time is something the Ukrainians no longer have. So the whole thing is on the verge of collapse.

I do understand. The day after Russia came Ukraine blocked the river from upstream. The river ran thru Ukraine, including Crimea, until Ukraine blocked it.
Ukraine wasn’t *supplying* it to Crimea. They took it away from Crimea.

Just like Ukraine, every day, shells civilian areas in Donetsk right now, killing civilians and kids.

I can’t wait until Ukraine no longer exists. They play dirty and go after civilians, hide in schools and neighborhoods,
ignore the Geneva convention.

So Poland will get a big chunk of their territory back that Stalin stole in 1939. I wonder if Germany will want a corresponding size of real estate back from Poland that was carved out and given to Poland in exchange in post-WWII?

I’d say that a number of posters are paid to push the hate-Russia-love-Ukraine POV. These are the ones that always seem to be pushing a narrative, always on message, and their posting history shows they *only* post and comment on these Ukraine threads. They seem to post like it’s their job to cheerlead for the war— probably because it is.

Other pro-Ukraine posters might be Cold-war vets who still hate Russia, guys with Ukrainian mail-order bridges, and posters who have lots of investments in Raytheon and Lockheed-Martin. But these Freepers also post on other subjects (elections, Trump, religion, globohomo, etc). On the other hand, the paid shills are *always* on message— its all Ukraine, all the time.

When Biden got that 40+ billion for the Ukraine war funding, it probably included a big chunk for a propaganda blitzkrieg both in traditional media and the internet.

Just think of it as your tax dollars at work!
