If this is a "strategic retreat" where are the projected gains?

The answer is obvious -- every time there is a retreat, the Russians unload an aerial assault on the Ukrainian army that depletes the number of troops and vehicles. And, they are doing that while suffering very few losses.

Now all they to do is pull back to their legal borders and proclaim glorious victory!

So, the Russians have "only" gained 39,000 square miles of land rather 40,000.

And, yes, since it is now Russian territory, the Russian military will ultimately defend of EVERY inch annexed.

Given that Russia has only used about 10% of its military on the ground and, to this point, been outnumbered on the ground and has still gained about 40,000 square miles, Russia will overwhelm the Ukrainians when the numbers favor it on the ground.

You're an idiot if you think what's left of the Ukrainian will do anything but get its ass kicked when Russia goes on all in.

“Russian military seems to be in full retreat”

Source: Some guy on the internet


All these spammers are about is victory for Biden and the LWO. That’s why the hatred for Russia. Nothing to do with loyalty to Ukraine. They’ve been shill pieces for the left and democrats for almost 20 years. Using terms like Bushies, and now pooty poot. Flamboyant, fairie- twinkle toes who also used to harass Christian boards.

t appears to me, Ukraine is constantly growing stronger, with more trained men, more advanced equipment, better mora

You're wrong. Ukraine has lost more than 110,000 of its troops and doesn't have trained reserved to replace what it is losing.

Russia has only used 10% of its military on the ground. It's relied mostly on militias from the LPR and DPR, the Chechens and Wagner.

Now, that these annexed areas are Russian territory, Russia will use the full force of its military and Ukrainians have no chance when that happens.

You should realize Ukraine has no chance anyway because Russian owns the air space. You can't win a war when the other side owns the air.

You mentioned two photos of Biden, but what were the articles about, they were not pro-Biden were they.

They’ve had 8 months to employ classic military tactics. They’ve yet to do so successfully. The Scythian maneuver requires discipline, excellent command and control, and excellent unit cohesion. In the last 8 months have Putin’s forces displayed these characteristics for any length of time.?

They are pics that seem to be casting Dementus as some kind of statesman. They are not attached to articles

They are on the ‘About Us’ page. Soon as you land on it you see his goofy mug. What does he have to do with what the site is about

So view view Dementus as ‘our President’? Don’t you mean your ‘illegitimate President’

Here’s a map of the last supposed election in Ukriane:

2010? That was three elections ago - makes it hard to take the rest of what you say seriously. And if you really think Kharkiv and Odesa are supporting Putin, you are mistaken. Putin has done the impossible - he's unified Ukraine politically (against Russia.)

Agreed. The only occupied territory of Ukraine that is still supporting Russia right now is probably Crimea. That's only because there are a lot of Russian carpetbaggers over there right now. Get rid of the Black Sea Fleet and stop the tourists from visiting Crimea, they might favor Ukraine at this point at this time.

Putin and Shoigu are obvious geniuses! And they can keep showing off their genius by keeping up their brilliant retreat all the way to Russia's borders.
