"Where most of the non-kinetic work is being done is in restoring and normalizing smaller towns and cities that the Russians liberate. What is being reported is that Russian managers are now routinely being brought on site of these towns and cities to establish order and normal civilian function. They restore Russian Television, and Internet, get cleaning up done, start rebuilding, demine, and provide emergency food stocks for normal life to continue. There are rumors all over the netisphere that the status of Donesk and Lugansk will soon more formally change to Russian influence. We cannot speculate and will have to wait to see but what is clear is the de-nazification is in full progress.
Slow and methodical? But is it so? Take a look at today’s Russian Mod report and the sheer size of a complete demilitarization: https://t.me/mod_russia_en/1329
And then take a look at the latest map from Riafan.ru. We may have to say slow and methodical but another descriptor comes to mind: Slow, Methodical and Total.

Both live off of the profits of destruction, war, and death. Leftists are parasites that live off of the work of others. They are satanic in that they would rather rule in hell than serve in heaven.

“The Long, Lucrative & Bloody Road To World War 3”

Well, this war in Ukraine will last “months and years.” At least, that is what the leaders of the D.C. foreign policy blob, the media, President Joe Biden’s men, Pentagon and NATO leadership have decided. Their plan is to pour oil on the flames and keep the fire raging. Also, Americans are going to have to cough up the dough for another massive aid package, with $20 billion worth of weapons to keep the blood flowing. In total, this next package will cost the taxpayer $33 billion. With Biden’s proposed $813 billion “defense” budget for 2023, the U.S. is spending more on the military and war now than ever before in the country’s history.

“We want to see Russia weakened to the degree that it can’t do the kinds of things that it has done in invading Ukraine,” Austin said with a clear eye toward increasing Russian casualties and the long term destruction of Moscow’s conventional power.
Perhaps, Austin wants to cripple Russia so severely that his Pentagon can fight a war with China, the “most consequential strategic competitor and the pacing challenge for the Department,” without having to worry so much about Moscow—deemed a second tier “acute” threat, albeit one armed with roughly 6,000 nukes—getting involved.
Austin’s Raytheon pals are making a killing on this proxy war as well as the ancillary effects such as European NATO states, at long last, increasing their military spending.
As Ron Paul has written,
One group of special interests profiting massively on the war is the US military-industrial complex. Raytheon CEO Greg Hayes recently told a meeting of shareholders that, “Everything that’s being shipped into Ukraine today, of course, is coming out of stockpiles, either at DOD or from our NATO allies, and that’s all great news. Eventually we’ll have to replenish it and we will see a benefit to the business.”
He wasn’t lying. Raytheon, along with Lockheed Martin and countless other weapons manufacturers are enjoying a windfall they have not seen in years. The U.S. has committed more than three billion dollars in military aid to Ukraine. They call it aid, but it is actually corporate welfare: Washington sending billions to arms manufacturers for weapons sent overseas.
By many accounts these shipments of weapons like the Javelin anti-tank missile (jointly manufactured by Raytheon and Lockheed Martin) are getting blown up as soon as they arrive in Ukraine. This doesn’t bother Raytheon at all. The more weapons blown up by Russia in Ukraine, the more new orders come from the Pentagon.

Good to see things settling down in that part of Ukraine.
“the Russian MoD has decided that any US/NATO aircraft which delivers weapons to the Ukraine will be considered as a “legitimate target” by the Russian military.”
Well we just responded by telling these blustering little clowns that their generals are OUR legitimate targets and we helped wack 10 of them so far.
Lol, sure commie KGB Vlad and his muslim terrorist mercenaries are so concerned about “Christians”, I’m sure.
No one said you're the brightest bulb on the tree either.
This started at the start of the cold war. In the 50s every university sucked millions from the taxpayers for their gubmint run think tanks and research labs. Today it is just more blatant.
Patriotism? Americans and our allies have every interest in seeing Ukrainians victorious and Putin's Russians defeated.
The alternative of Russian victory only guarantees we'll soon be fighting them again, next time closer to home.
As for who are the Nazis and who the Christians, let's see -- who invaded who? Those would be the Nazis.
And which side are Christians?
Well, 63% of Russians say they are Christians, while 86% of Ukrainians say they are Christians.
So maybe we should ask which are the more sincere Christians, those suffering from foreign invasion, or those committing it?
That's why the real question is: why do you hate Ukrainians?
Latest from Azovstal:
Azov made an offer to Russia : swap 15 civilian hostages for 1 ton of food and medications.
(Typical terrorist behavior).
If that were true (I don't believe it) then all those thousands of destroyed Russian vehicles, and their crews, must be getting blown up by the Russians themselves, right?
And that suggests a new & unknown strategy for fighting a war -- blow yourselves up!
I don't get it, guess we'll have to see how well it works out...
Thanks, that is brilliant.
This claim is not confirmed by any western news source.
They do say that a small number of civilians, women & children, recently escaped, though how & where they went is not reported.
Conditions inside Azovstal are said to be increasingly desperate, with final defeat & surrender imminent if no help received.
You know I’m sure I could find a photo of some monument defaced by neo-nazis right here in the USA. Guess we should all cheer for Vlad the Impotent to try to invade us next.
The javelins are bouncing off the reactive armor on the Russian tanks. There are reports of tanks taking four or five javelin hits and rolling along as if nothing had happened.

Western sources : lol, they would not talk bad about Azov.
Yes, a group escaped abt a week ago, and another group was released by Azov (~ 3 days ago).
European WW2 cemeteries aren't just "some monument" jackass, they're dead Americans buried there also...so no need to go looking.
Guess we should all cheer for Vlad the Impotent to try to invade us next.
Much more likely it will be NATO or UN forces brought in to reign in a dissident region of the United States...and yes I have little doubt that neoliberals like you will be cheering them on.
