Col Douglas Macgregor (planner for the butchery of Belgrade during the Kosovo War and current Russian propagandist and media hound ) on the build up for a Russian offensive in November - using forcibly conscripted and untrained troops that lack winter clothing and boots without holes, firing WWII rifles and rusty machine guns, while pounding UA troops with WWII and WWI artillery.

When it comes to predictions (as Yogi Berra said, about the future) I'd rather rely on Nostradamus than Colonel Macgregor because Nostradamus has a better record.

Yeah, McGregor seems to favor the Russians in his analysis. I’d be waiting to see before placing any bets.

I am surely no expert on Russian military history, but know enough that their go-to strategy is to retreat from the fields to let their enemies capture empty territory, where they then get stuck in the snow.

Col. Douglas Macgregor must have been one of those military geniuses back in February, who claimed that said Russia would roll over Kiev in 7 days. Was he?

In the week following the invasion of Ukraine, Col Douglas Macgregor predicted that Russia was on the verge of victory.

There is a big difference between a great tactician and a strategist.

This would be right in line with the traditional Russkie military practice of winter offensives, their favorite.

The one time they really failed in winter (but won in spring) was in Finland.

Remember Kazan is the one who predicted that the Ukrainians would surrender in a few days. I hear he gets an extra ration of vodka with every 100 propaganda posts.

All the genius naysayers who are so much smarter than McGregor show up for their requisite globalist bootlicking. Cash those paychecks, clowns.

With what? They’re out of missiles, using T-62 tanks, can’t feed or arm new conscripts, giving the cannon fodder viagra. This war is over. Nukes are out of the question. Everyone has them.

You loons said all this before. You’ve all said this doggerel since March. It’s always just a matter of time until RuSSia goes into high gear and destroys the Ukrainians... It was supposed to happen in March. It was supposed to happen in April. It was supposed to happen in May. It was supposed to happen in June. It was supposed to happen in July. It was supposed to happen in August. It was supposed to happen in September. LOL!

How much longer will it take?!? They had the whole damn summer.

These Putinists are getting dumber by the day...
