Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and his generals have an artful knack for keeping the Russian military bear off-balance. On Sunday, they renewed their offensive in the Russian Kursk Oblast, once again catching the Russian high command, Kremlin, and many pundits by surprise.
Reports of a demoralized Ukrainian army fighting to retain terrain captured during the August Kursk offensive — of which at least 40 percent has been lost — have circulated among western media and Russian milbloggers since November.
So too reports that Ukraine’s 155th Mechanized Brigade — trained and equipped by France — was under-resourced in “first person view drones or sufficient[ly] trained pilots.” And that 50 soldiers had deserted the unit while training in France and another that 1,700 soldiers refused orders to transfer to the unit.
Nonetheless, as Gen. George Patton once said, “When in doubt, attack!” And that is exactly what Ukraine did, along three fronts — southern Berdin, central Russkoye Porechnoye and central Novosotnitsky.
Ukraine is using British supplied Challenger 2 tanks and extensive electronic warfare operations to blind Russian drones, allowing sappers to open lanes in minefields to facilitate their advance. The success or failure of the renewed offensive remains to be determined, but one thing is certain — it got the Kremlin’s attention.

It is the liberals' way -- whether neolib or neocon -- to spend other people's lives and money freely. It is especially effective when those liberals clothe themselves in the drapery of "conservative."
Remember:
Barack Obama, conservative WaPo, 22 November 2019.
Or one can recall "GOP" Cheney campaigning for Harris-Walz, or "conservative" Robert Kagan worrying about "anti-lberalism."
The commentariat will never be on the front lines. Switzerland is upscale and safe....
Ukraine voted to be free from Moscow, but Moscow reneged.
I like freedom, and have wished for Ukraine to be free from The Moscow Club.
While the USA is likely to continue [for a while] sending anti-air support and artillery shells (of various types), plus [for an extended time] temporary shelters and medical supplies . . . I do not expect the cash flow envelop toss (that works both ways for socialist gang leaders) to continue.
In other words, no matter how much the Ukraine government threatens to make matters worse, I expect President Trump to cut them off from the Obama 3.0 (Biden, Blinken, CNN-NYT-WPost, socialist academic) trough.
Basically
Guns for Ukraine plus Butter for California, is not going to work.
lol that’s absolute nonsense.
I support the NATO countries also, so how many armies do I have to join?
And Japan, South Korea, Philippines, Australia.
I’ll be busy.

You’re just jealous of Rocco, or anyone else, who can post without having to copy and paste their remarks, or who has to ask their spouse how to reply, because you’ve never had an independent thought in your grey rock brain and you don’t have a creative bone in your entire flabby body.
Who exactly are those Pro-Putin FReepers, Holier-Than-Thou ?
Is all your lying bs part of your religion?
I wonder how long it will take before you try to have posts and threads removed again, and scream about being the poor, abused victim.
You are great entertainment! 😂😂😂

Join the military of the country whose interests you put above America’s.
You advocate for the USA to pour billions upon billions of our hard earned taxpayer dollars down the toilet known as Ukraine even though we don’t have funding to help Americans.
It’s obvious by your comments that you value Ukraine more than America. That’s the country you should fight for.

Exactly, World.
Some people call Mitt Romney a Conservative. In today’s political climate, the word has lost its original meaning. Just like the word “gay”.
The mappers on YouTube show completely dismal conditions for the Ukrainians.
Thousands of average Joe Ukrainians do not want to die for Zman or Lindsey Graham.
The average Joe would rather surrender than throw their lives away for corrupt politicians.
Zman should have his go bag ready. He may have to flee for his life . Where will the rat scurry to ? Who will have him ?
2. Use common courtesy when posting. Do not post insults or personal attacks against your fellow FReepers. Do not engage in flame-wars or feuds. If you find yourself falling into one, disengage immediately and move on. You don’t need to have the last word.
3. Do not badger other posters. Do not demand an answer.

Let us know when you start following them, "REVEREND"-mommy.
>>>>That RFU — in the US and utilizing the services of Communist China — and Davydov — resident in Switzerland — slip back into these Ukraine threads evidences that the proponents of these non-news US/Chinese and Swiss “influencers” are being promoted by FR’s very own influencers.
Not news. Propaganda for profit.<<<<
Easy money for ambitious, America-hating zeepers.
10 more days, and their party’s over.
Whose gravy train will they jump on next?
You’re just obnoxious.
>>>>Your attempts to call supporters of Ukraine in its fight against Russia’s barbaric invasion cowards because we won’t be mercenaries makes absolutely no sense. That’s very much a Russian thing, as Putler has now had to turn to poorly trained and malnourished North Koreans to fight (and die in droves) for him.
You remain pathetic as always.<<<<
Makes perfect sense to me. You come on this site advocating for war, every day, multiple times a day. Put your money where your mouth is...go fight for your globohomo hero. He needs your body, not your words.
You remain a War Pig as always.
The ultimate blog pimp. Using FR to make money off of propaganda.
