The Western media for decades has hailed Vladimir Putin as a great strategist. But if the past eight months have proved one thing, it’s that this strategic wizard often achieves the opposite of his intentions.
...Mr. Putin should look to history. During World War I, Russian authorities tried to conscript Muslims from Central Asia. The result was a major uprising in summer 1916, which took months and tens of thousands of Russian troops to suppress. In the end, none of the Muslims were sent to battle—and, by withdrawing army units from the front to confront the internal uprising, Russia expedited its eventual defeat. Less than six months later, the czar and his government were forced to resign.
By sending poorly trained non-Russian men to Ukraine, Moscow may soon meet a similar fate. Centuries of pent-up bitterness and frustration over rule by Moscow may spill into a military confrontation and civil war. Given Russia’s current military defeats, this isn’t a distant prospect. If and when that happens, Russia will fall apart as the empire of the czars and Soviet Union did. It would be ironic if the man who wanted to revive the U.S.S.R. instead ushers in the twilight of Russia’s last empire.

For she sees no escape.
The Western media today is nothing more than the propaganda agent for the DNC and WEF..

How does that change the outcome for Russia?
In the meantime, outside the propaganda steadily peddled:
“Ukraine Badly Defeated in Kherson, Russia Advances Kharkov; Putin Mobilizes Russian Economy for War”

“War and Regrets in Ukraine - at least 400,000 Ukrainian battlefield casualties including 100,000 soldiers killed in action”

And one of the most revealing videos on the Ukraine-Russian conflict:
“LTC Ritter, CPT Bennett, MAJ Jaco (all CIA SPEC OPS) annihilate Woke-West Lies/False Russ Narrative”

Right, it’s all propaganda on both sides in war. The media doesn’t know Putin’s intentions, but they judge him anyway.
Wow, a world without Russia! The world will be much safer if Russia disintegrates.
Time to offer peace while Russia is on its back leg and hasn’t used any nukes.
Correct, and I'm already bored with their daily non stop coverage of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. I'm more interested in America, our issues, crime, the border influx of people and drugs, the k-12 education failures, reforming our social security house of cards, our energy problems, the decline in values....
Thanks for the list
How is a world with 6000 nuclear warheads up for grabs a safer place? You are out of your mind.
The law of unintended consequences is lost on most people.
I can’t tell if you’re serious or being a smartass? :)
“ Mother Russia weeps for her children.
For she sees no escape. ”
The escape for these Russian dumba$$es is to declare victory and go home.
But Putin is a petulant child and won’t do so.
Russia could have been a force for good in the world, but they won’t put their murderous Stalinist past behind them.
Resign? I guess that's one way to put it. I'm not sure of the timeframe, but they killed the czar and his family.
—”In the meantime...”
CHANGING THE SUBJECT DOES NOT CHANGE ANY FACTS.
It was about a year and a half from abdication to execution.
There will always be a Russia, comrades. Just like there will always be a China. Bank on it.
“Ukraine Badly Defeated in Kherson”
Yeah thats why the Ruscists are evacuating Kherson.
