Dear UK,

I am asking for a friend. How can you have a military intelligence division when you have no military?

Sincerely,

A descendent of those who locked you out of the best parts of North America.

"The war still has been a disaster for Russia on many levels."

Really, all the western sanctions really did was force western companies out of Russia and the Russians kept all of the knowledge, facilities and employees and freed themselves from western corporate dominance. And for those imports from the United States in Europe they just replaced with ones from China and other countries. Just look at all the wester corporations that were forced to leave the Russian:

I’m calling BS.

So are many others. From our Pentagon to the EU’s Ursula van Der Crazy, to those many non western ( not Russian) news agencies.

However, casualties matter little to Vlad and the Russian people. They are United. Make no mistake, Vlad is keeping Crimea and his five ethnic Russian provinces. The war cheerleaders need to get used to it, and everything will fall into place ( Peace).

This Ukie war from day one was so predictable, with a senile, corrupted vegetable head leading the effort…..US’s Project Ukraine has failed, another senile Joe Debacle.

This war may end the Slav as a world level force.

There is no end in sight and a few million may already be dead (not to count how many million wounded (or suffering from mental issues).

There is a “yuuge” difference in losing millions of young men when your average Olga was having 5.3 kids in 1941 or today when the average is 1.4.

Yeah you proved it’s great for Russia to have sanctions, to devastate its people and economy, lose vast amounts of its armaments, ships, planes. Not.

China got the greatest consumer companies and stores for Russia? I think not.

What do we say when companies leave our own cities? Only democrats say, good riddance.

It’s a typo. An extra zero. My wife does it all the time when balancing the checking account.

Who is helping Russia to fight, but not to win? Cause that’s what’s been happening.

You have no idea who is winning, yet you pretend you do. There’s a name for people like you.

You see your arguments are pure bullS and that’s a give away that you’re a dishonest person.

You don’t need a link to know that Russia has now fought a 5 weeks war for over two years, without victory.

A victory, by the way, that you and your comrades told us again and again, was going to happen every 4 weeks.

Russia even had its mercenary army turn and start attacking into its own territory.

They suffered territorial reversals on the battlefield.

They lost devastating numbers of troops in months of human wave attacks.

They lost their Black Sea fleet and hard to replace sophisticated AWACS type aerial platforms.

Now go get me links to demonstrate all that hasn’t happened.

Get real with your propaganda.

Pay attention for once. I never said who’s winning at the moment, or whether I believe the numbers in this report.

As usual, I answered propagandists who day everything is rosy for Russia. It isn’t. Or for Ukraine. It isn’t.

The war is a disaster for both sides, but Russia is the supposed superpower.

Unlike you I’m a conservative MAGA Trump supporting patriot.

You are an America hating liar, and you and your hero have no desire to face Trump.

Trump’s election is the priority, and I trust him to resolve this war.

Why not 1 million or 10 million. Maybe that would be even more believable. The propaganda stench is so annoying.

Yahoo’s number is 70,000. The New York Times will better them with a gajillion dead Russkies. The average age of a Ukrainian soldier is now 43 years old because all the inexperienced young ones were killed. The Times is going with the narrative “experience counts when you’re out of bullets” to lend credence to their gajillion number
