“the AngloZionists have tried to draw out this war for as long as possible”
Great “anti-nazi” Russian sources you’re relying on there.
With 200 lost military men per day, Ukraine is no doubt losing this war.
Or so the writer wants us to believe.
Truth is that, if the invaded have lost that many, the invader has lost twice or more than that.
But, the ‘glee’ by the Ukrainians is about how many Russians were killed with ONE SHOT, and not about how many total the Russians have lost in the war so far. If one shot can kill that many Russians, imagine how many could be killed with a thousand of those shots. That’s what the writer doesn’t mention.
Furthermore, if Russia had been killing 200 Ukrainians per day, the number of losses by Ukrainians would have lost the Ukrainians the war by now. But, the invader is the one that doesn’t know the territory as well as the invaded, so, one can be certain that the Russians have lost at least twice as many as the Ukrainians. If Russia were to be doing as great as the writer and anti-Ukes wish, then, the war would have been won by Russia months ago.
And, the Ukes are not alone, and the Russians Russians know it, and the reason they mention the strike that killed their 63, is because they’re trying to point to the U.S. and it’s allies as the brutes that did the killing, not the Ukes. Russia is trying to win sympathy, and the strike by “the U.S.” is how they can get people like the writer above to do it for them.
Well, after years of reading FR for news not reported in the “mainstream media” I’ve never seen as much sheer nonsense as is now routinely posted here about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. 🙄
“Have they ever reported the losses from the Moskva’s sinking?”
You mean from the completely planned and quite intentional transition of the Moskva from a surface vessel to a submersible, of course. All part of the plan!
Yes, you post a decent share of that twaddle, along with your fellow Azovnistas.
President Sniffer and his idiots are working to involve us in World War III. It won't start with Russians - maybe it'll start with Iranians... played off involvement in Ukraine.
Nooooo - that's what artillery is for.
Just to be clear, it’s OK for Iran to provide drones, but it’s bad for the US?
Honestly, this is payback for Korea, Vietnam, and every other place where Russian weapons have killed and maimed US troops.
The logic being used to defend Russia lately is mind boggling.
Of course, the response will be name calling and insults.
Yes, the pictures yesterday did not seem to go well with the story. The celebrations here among those who tune in everyday for their latest fix of death and destruction of “Ruzzians” was a little over the top as you would expect. I suspected that there was a “bit” of exaggeration going on. But by Telegraph/MSN standards... at least it was actually based on an actual event... which is an improvement compared to most of the time.
“’Hundreds’ killed as Ukrainian Himars flatten Russian barracks in one of war's deadliest strikes”
[... building itself could only hold 100-200 troops.]
Right... It was a 2 or 3 story school building. I don’t know how many were in there but it could easily hold much more than that. Stop being silly.
“the response was unusual, so obviously it can only mean what I want it to mean!”
No, it’s not the most troop deaths in one day. What makes it unique is that these soldiers weren’t killed on the front, in combat. Russia’s defenses failed to protect soldiers sleeping in their barracks.
Be careful what you advocate, warhawk.
Glad to see you back from Donetsk Oblast, where you could personally inspect the site and report back to us.
The constant Russian casualty numbers remind me of 70s SoS McNamarra’s VC death totals that day..
And I ain’t buyin’ it.
Of course, it’s not that hard for me because I dumped the MSM in 1997.
“which is apparently not a good thing in their view”
Gee, maybe the Russians should have considered that before they supplied weapons to every terrorist group and revolutionary movement that wanted to kill Americans during the 20th century?
On a related topic, I just finished season three of Jack Ryan. I think it was the best one by far. It came across as true Tom Clancy territory.
You wouldn't want to be a cookie in the middle of that particular circle...
Whatever.
The Russians are gonna do what they want.
More Russians will die. And that is fine with me. They are a brutal, paranoid, insecure people who add very little to the well being of the world. They have done nothing but slaughter their people and others for the past 100 years.
The fewer of them around, the better.
This was done with Western supplied intelligence that identified the troop concentration and provided the coordinates for launching a precision strike.
That drives home something I was thinking when I first read the OP - The American barracks in Beirut in the Reagan years. I believe it was 241 killed. Yes, it was:
