Oh, the war is over and its not day 849 of Putin's invasion? Okay
OTD in 2023 Prigozhin said Kremlin was lying about the reasons Russia invaded Ukraine. In unrelated news, he was killed soon after.

SICK: Dozens of men from Ukraine tricked into thinking they were given an escape route out of Ukraine from Zelensky's gustapo only to find out they have been captured and con-scribed for war.

Just how does that work out? That large a group — sort of like arming convicts and expecting them to compliantly remain in the prison yard and follow orders.
I think I saw this in the movie “Enemy at the Gates”. The WWII Soviets (correct me if I am wrong) had armed men backing up their “comrades” with orders to shoot anyone running the “wrong” way.
Douglas A Macgregor needs to take his meds.
Press ganged they call it
Cannon fodder also ?
Yes, I have read they did; however, the numbers going forward have got to vastly outnumber the ones in the rear who had orders to shoot deserters.
LOL, when was Douglas Macgregor correct in the past?
Colonel Douglas MacGregor has made the following predictions:
On 27th Feb 2022, he stated: “The battle in eastern Ukraine is really almost over". It is still going.
In March 2022, he stated: “I would say another 10 days this should be completely over”.
In March 2022, he stated that: “[Ukranian forces have been] grounded to bits. There's no question about that despite what we report on our mainstream media". And yet, fighting continues.
In July 2022, he stated that: “The war, with the exception of Kharkiv and Odesa, as far as the Russians are concerned is largely over”.
In September 2022, he stated that: “this war may be over soon”.
Why are you still taking him seriously?
Macgregor’s deliberate use of the archaic “con-scribed” (with a completely unnecessary hyphen) instead of the familiar “conscripted” tells you all you need to know about that pedantic, arrogant, and ridiculously wrongheaded blowhard.
We all know MacGregor is a tool.
But whose?
I see your point!
Sounds like he has been closer to being accurate than any Zeeper!
😂🤣😭😅
You are correct.

St Zelensky is pure evil. When the people realize how they were tricked by Z, and the West, the backlash will be historic….think Mussolini.
I think it’s interesting how some Freepers here want to those men fighting and dying.
When they obviously don’t share the same opinion.
Macgregor is a designated naysayer.
Given his horseface, I think you might mean “neigh-sayer”. 😂
Yes, the Soviets did that. They also didn’t have enough personnel or weapons. Stalin emptied the prisons and conscripted them. They were forced to run, unarmed, into German fire, with Soviet machine guns at their backs, with the idea they would exhaust Germany’s supply of ammo. If they made it far enough, they were told to pick up a weapon of a dead comrade.
How quickly will such soldiers surrender to the enemy? How many will frag their own officers or even join the other side. How many will go “Kelly’s Heroes” and start to rob and loot for themselves?
At least he fights.
As a matter I of fact, I have, unlike you, Potato Chip. You’ve never done a hard thing in your life, have you?
But you’re a real tough guy behind your keyboard, huh loser?
