What do you think it means in the 'real world' when Russia has been retreating for months?
You're a neoconned proxy-war hooligan who's popping off online in support of his warteam.
You have my politics completely wrong in this regard. You assume wrongly, when my posting history goes back to 2002 and you'll find consistent, principled opposition even then to the neocons. That having been explained to you, I don't close my eyes to the reality that the Russian army failed in their March objectives, and have been getting pushed backwards for months now.
I don't understand why people follow sources that are demonstrably wrong, for months and months. When I ask them point blank, like you, they prevaricate, dodge, and insult, but can never explain why they don't reject sources that keep failing in their predictions.
So I ask again, why keep listening to Ritter when he keeps being so wrong?
The Russians are slaughtering Ukie cannon fodder. That's the real world.

Who said I listen to Scott Ritter?
I rarely listen to him. Once every month or two if he happens to end up on one of the channels I follow.
