Odessa and Kharkov...

Translation: The Russians are running!

Douglass MacGreggor has proven to be wrong on nearly all of his analysis of the Russia/Ukraine war the last year. He has been proven wrong over-and-over. This is the same guy who said Russia was going to wipe up Ukraine within a couple of months.

Indeed - his statements have been little more than a dramatic version of Russian propaganda... except that he makes claims that even Russia doesn’t even lay claim to. It also doesn’t match the reports I have gotten from friends I know personally in Ukraine.

He consistently under-states Rusisan losses, over-states Urkainian (though to a lesser degree - Bahmuht has been a deadly fight, costly to both sides - but between the quite plausible 100,000 dead Russians & Wagner and a possible 30k Ukrainian dead - it’s been costly to both.

But I continue to scratch my head - as much as I despise Biden - this somewhat disgraced “Colonel” blames the West, blames Ukraine, and continues to hinge everything on money laundering and all the traditional conspiracy theories regarding that area. He consistently defends one of the most corrupt and evil men in the world - Putin. He ignores hundreds of years of history and decades of broken promises by Russia (under Putin) that go farther back than what he is blaming. He is either simply mentally derranged, or he is on someone’s payroll.

The following is a portion of the video transcript starting at the 32 second mark in the video:

 

I think the first thing we need to keep

in mind

is that Bakmut was probably the most

successful trap ever created in military

history

uh ultimately the Russians

managed to turn Bakmut into the

graveyard of the Ukrainian Army

at least 50 000 Ukrainian soldiers were

killed and many more were wounded it has

been nothing but a complete disaster

zelensky obsessed over Bakmut the way

Hitler obsessed over Stalingrad

and the ukrainians have had to pay a

terrible price and if you want to know

just how profound the impact of this

loss is you need to look at Politico's

article over the weekend about the

desire of people in the White House

inside the Biden Administration to press

for a so-called Frozen conflict in

Ukraine.

I mean it's abundantly clear to them

that the myth of Ukrainian Victory is

just that it's a myth there's no chance

whatsoever. In fact the Ukrainians are on

the road to Total defeat and collapse

and what they've done is said, 'well you

know we can't win so we'll try to turn

Ukraine into a European version of the

Korean peninsula. We'll split it. We'll

freeze the conflict. We'll move U.S

forces into Western Ukraine and then

we'll just sit across from the Russians

for another 50 60 70 years. Of course

this won't work, Charlie, because the

Russians have no incentive to cooperate.

The Panic has set in as the weather becomes dry.

Russian troops are only overrunning their rear lines to get away from what is coming, but with Storm Shadows there is no rear, just ask the 450 well trained troops that are no more.

Finally we get the straight story.....straight from Putin’s puppets.

Which means Biden will BORROW more and send the money to Ukraine. Zelensky is very rich already. He owns a beautiful villa in Florida.
