The Ukrainians are beating back the Russian invasion by dropping anvils on them and tricking them into running off of cliffs.

If I had to bet, I’d say this report is a lot more accurate than the MSM cheering of the glorious Ukrainians and their easy victory over the incompetent Russians. That one doesn’t make sense to me.

It appears the Russians are using our version of “shock and awe” by avoiding large civilian casualties; avoiding WW II type bombing of cities; using very selective attacks and NOT targeting mass infrastructure that would lead to high casualties. They apparently learned that while this won’t keep the rest of the world, or the West, out entirely, it will minimize the outrage.

We’ll see though. Virtually all of the news is fake. For having 50,000 men inside Ukraine, there is almost zero footage of combat (far less than in Iraq) including cell phones.

The mainstream media will portray it as a win for Joe Biden. They will spin it somehow to show his diplomacy ended the war.

“The Russians have finally entered Kharkov, Ukraine’s second largest city, very close to the Russian border. On Saturday night, they finally wasted all significant, organized resistance with a rain of thermobaric death in the outskirts”

This must have been written on Sunday, before all the Russians that entered Kharkiv ended up dead.

“The power is still on in Kiev and Kharkiv last I checked.”

I’ve been wondering about that. Not too difficult to take out power plants and substations, after all.

Today the Wall Street Journal editorializes about the Slaughter in The Ukraine. Not one single number to say how many slaughtereed. Just one laudatory adjective after another towaarw the “brave” fighters, a total encomium with few facts.

If Putin is determined to take over Ukraine (known as Little Russia), he wants more than a heap of destruction and a population residue.

I am suspecting something more is happening behind the scenes and great stories are being coordinated for a particular effect.

GP article without BOOM, BREAKING, or HUGE prefacing the headline? That’s news in and of itself.

Putin is a KGB pinko commie sovietski scumbag and I hope Ukraine kicks his red ass back to Stalingrad.

Cleanest sniper fatigues ever, and very nice and shiny rings. Her girlfriend is probably the Ghost of Kyiv. Netflix series by next month.

Biden and corrupt cronies, Xi, and putin
Are mass murderers. , the trio of evil,
They released covid as a start to this war.
I expect if we had a legal system we may find out the trillions milked from the children of the usa are probably in putins hands..these folks are not dumb like our news.., biden is in on this with cronies
Because they are criminals who have been robbing the people for decades.
They know if they are exposed before they
Take over the USA they will die hung on the white house lawn, so expect biden
To fight Us.. its just starting, I expect putin will nuke a euro country, us and China will not reply, Europe is gone, Asia next .they already have us with biden Clinton and crew of sicko crime family pervs.
That’s the reset, biden, Xi, and putin..
Imo..with the beast to come..
It would have never gone this far without putin knowing the plan..
They plan to make our money worthless,
They don’t care .

We Got US A Convoy..blues rock Video I wrote
It’s free..pass it around

The main thing is that, as far as I know, we all assumed that it was planned to be a Blitzkrieg-type takeover of Ukraine, but the Russians never published a timetable. So to say they’re losing on the battlefield might be a bit premature.

Likewise, maybe they are losing - who knows, other than the Russians.

So now the GP has gone to cheerleading for Putin.

Well done, Comrades. Marshal Putin will bestow a “hero” medal upon you any day now.

It is obvious, that Russians tried their “proven” strategy, tried in Prague, Kabul, Grozny, and other places.
Send spec forces and saboteurs to take over airports, then fly in the rest of spec forces and take over all government and strategic points (control, communication,...)
Then drive in their masses of poorly trained draftees, all of them would rather be somewhere else! Just for show, to suppress any thoughts of resistance.

The spec forces obviously failed, so now Putin is trying to get some spec forces from Belarus.
He seems to be down to the masses of poorly trained draftees. Most of then do not know, where they are, why are they there, and probably do not even know which way the bullet comes out of the rifle!
Since there are many of them, they still present formidable force in aggregate, but they are pitiful.
I would not count on them to win anything!

As I posted yesterday...

The problem for me, at least, is that Ukraine is a small to medium sized country in the middle of nowhere, yet I kept hearing about it with regard to the Bidens, and Trump’s impeachment, and it looks like the Dems (and Romney) had a great scheme going there to launder money to their families.

So forgive me if I have little sympathy for the government in Kiev. I usually root for the underdog, because it’s more fun, but Ukraine chose to take a side in the politics of the United States and we’ve been paying the price ever since. Whatever the government there is replaced with will be an improvement for the United States, and that is ALL that I give a crap about.

The Russians still have access to China for transactions with the West, also have access to SWIFT for energy and raw materials transactions, and still have Hunter to go through. Want to end this? Cut off all energy and raw materials transactions with Russia and start progressively stricter sanctions on China for providing Russia access to their markets (and add one day per incursion of Taiwanese air and sea defense zones).

So Russia, with the million man army and tanks that will overrun Europe so we need the combined forces of the UK, France, Germany, and many other NATO allies to barely be able to stop them..... can’t take a city 30 miles from its border? and is being held back by people with molotov cocktails?

Either Russia’s military is a joke and we have been lied to about the need to fund NATO at the level we have been doing...or this article may have some truth.

This appears to me to scare tactics to try to convince the West not to arm the Ukrainians. Elon Musk has provided phones, and probably a few other things, and the Ukrainians in any event are very tech saavy, as tech is their third largest export.

The victory that Putin can legitimately claim, is that he seems to be putting a very definitive nail in the woke coffin.
