Russian TV Presenter:
“The decision of our MoD has become known that we are withdrawing troops from the right bank of Dnieper, that is, we are leaving Kherson… Now, if you are expecting I will explain my opinion on this, then I won’t tell you anything. But I’ll explain why. If I support this decision [to withdraw] then this turns out to be a public call for violation of the territorial integrity of Russia in our criminal code… This is several years of imprisonment. If I do not support this decision and believe that the MoD [is wrong], these are public actions aimed at discrediting the armed forces, in the same article, roughly the same amount of imprisonment.”

The notorious propagandist Solovyev, Russian TV talking head:
“Too many scumbags were lying. Lying from top to bottom. About what they had in caches. About the condition of the vehicles. About how many fighters are on the frontline. And not a single one was shot. Not a single bastard was caught by his ears.”

“These are Russian sources. If Russia was winning, they wouldn’t be withdrawing from Kherson in a panic due to Ukrainian bombardment and usual Russian incompetence. “
This statement is simply fact. No one is so ignorant they can’t understand it. So anyone who denies it is simply a liar.
I’ve already explained that the Ukrainians were going to try to cut them off by blowing either a bridge or dam - I think it’s a bridge. But the destruction of the bridge would likely involve needless civilian deaths and hardship.
So, the Russians withdrew and plan to return with a full contingent and deployment of weapons.
I believed in the Red Wave, I believed Russia was winning and Ukraine on the ropes—Looks like I was wrong again. Ukraine is winning and Russia, a hobbled giant unable to do anything right. Maybe Biden isn’t so bad after all. At this rate, Russia needs to pull out of all Ukraine. The US can rent (or buy) Sevastopol from Mr. Zelensky for a US Naval Base in striking distance from Moscow. That will humble Russia and end this talk of them being a “great Power.” We can tell Xi to move on Russian territories and Mongolia like they did Tibet. The Russian Bear is no more than a soft Teddy Bear.
Did you read the article. 20,000 Russian troops trapped in Kherson, and Ukraine controls every route out of town.
UKR is pushing on thru Kherson to the river, and could very well strand all the rus troops to the northeast along the river
Biden is still an asshole. Don’t let the grifters nominally on our side, with their constant false predictions and promises, get you doubting that. These freaks would never have been tolerated during the Reagan years, or, for that matter, during any other era in our history. These people are deranged conspiracy theorists who have been taken hostage by the likes of Ron Paul, Alex Jones, and Russian/Chinese propaganda.
As a rule, if the center of your ideology is “America is BAD,” that’s not conservatism.
Unfortunately, this type of thinking has caught on because Biden has the Presidency. The simpletons among us think in simple tribal terms, assuming that because the Democrats—who historically have been in bed with Russia (remember how Obama—whose mentor was likely under control by the KGB— mocked Romney for saying Russia was our number one enemy?)—are suddenly anti-Russia, that therefore we have to be PRO-Russia.
That said, this Russian conflict has been good in that, for the first time ever, I’ve seen liberals online opposing not just Russia, but China, North Korea, even Iran and the Obama era deals. The only exception are the hard left communists, who are all Pro-Russia.
It’s funny to see Liberals suddenly become more patriotic while so-called conservatives have been becoming more anti-American.
Wow, there is some freedom of press in Russia. Do you remember anything like that in the US media when Milley was running away from Afghanistan? As a side note, I don’t see any real panic, except orderly withdrawal to the territory where there is no risk of flood due to a dam burst.
You cant say your winning when your withdrawing. Again if Ukes were being destroyed as it is said as nauseum here, russia would be in Odessa already
I think you would be the first to admit perhaps your perceptions were wrong. Gotta respect that. Since I support Ukraine I prefer Bidens handling it compared to Trump as I think Trump would sell out Ukraine in heartbeat if it made him
look good. I still despise all of Bidens other policies and would never vote for him or any Dem.
Interesting idea of US renting Sevastopol. I think we could get a good deal in exchange for all the $ we given them.
China could take all they wanted, only risk is getting nuked.
Would be interesting to see a rehabilitated Russia allied with US against China. Russia could make all the junk we are hooked on. But dont think Russians have the wherewithal to think beyond their shot glass.
“Putz,” you call me.
“Blockhead,” you call me.
My FRiend, if the invasion of Ukraine does not fall into the category of “the destruction of a foreign state,” you can also slap my ass and call me Sally!
The invasion of Ukraine does not fall under the category of “destruction of a foreign state”. The failed Russian gambit falls under the heading of “biting off more than you can chew”
Russia has and is in withdrawal mode because it lacks the military wherewithal to stay.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine has degenerated into a constant war crime. Being unable to win with troops on the battlefields, Russian command has retreated to terrorist action bombing and killing Ukranian civilians.
You are on the side of the Great Resetters who want you dead, “Friend.”
You should lead by example and off yourself.
I am saying you should lead by example since your nuclear warmongering comrades are globalist depopulationists.
I am saying name-calling and telling other FReepers to commit suicide is not nice.
I am increasingly amazed by how many Freepers say things on this forum that they’d never dare say to another person face-to-face.
It is the sort of anonymous, cheap cowardice I would normally associate with communists, fascists, creepy Putin and ChiCom apologist trolls and other sorts of sissy bullies, were it not for the fact that there are no such people here.
You sure like to hear yourself talk.
Yep. That’s the sort of thing bullies say. In the schoolyard, bullies then turn to fists, but anonymous online bullies don’t have fists.
They are not total wussies, though! I can imagine you saying all of the sorts of things you say to me here to your ex-wife, or any other woman or child who has since left you, face-to-face.
Better you stick with faceless, anonymous online forums, though, especially when part of your class act is telling other people they should commit suicide.
I’ll leave you to your silly pro-Putin, anti-FreeRepublic cruelties.
Spoken like a Soros bully.
I truly have no idea what you are talking about. Who is the bully?
Ukraine or Russia?
Me? Or you, who call me names and tell me to kill myself?
How am I a “Soros bully,” having fought him and his ilk all my life?
How have I bullied you?
I hope the pro-Russian madness that has infected Free Republic will soon pass.
It’s like coming home from the ‘36 Olympic games on a plane full of Lindberghs.
This new, queer isolationist Russophilia is not conservative.
It is not Reagan, it is not Buckley, and it is not Free Republic.
