St Z calling for immediate cease fire, Vlad hammering now Western Ukraine with Iskanders, Zircons , cruise missiles, and drones…two days ago he put Ukraine in the dark, yesterday destroyed their NG pipelines, today hammering western Ukraine.

T.me has St Z’s full speech begging for a ceasefire…..you won’t find it on western MSM.

This is why mucus has abandoned his Ukraine troll and shifted to an India/H1-B troll.

Russian Nazis want Lebensraum. If Ukraine, the second biggest country in Europe, is erased as a modern society all the better in their view.

The prior update from Dima is providing documentation that the Russian salient north of Pokrovsk is expanding. My take on that salient is that the Russians created it to force Ukraine to commit its last major offensive forces (the neo-Nazi Azov brigades that have managed to keep themselves out of heavy fighting as much as possible). So for weeks now the Ukrainians have hammered the salient, and Zeepers have claimed Russia was losing 1000 soldiers a day, Ukrainian sources have claimed the salient was cut off and collapsing, etc. But all with no evidence provided.

A few days ago we got video evidence from the Ukrainian side showing them attacking Russians at the northern edge of the salient. Actually, beyond the northern edge, meaning the Russians were advancing deeper into Ukrainian territory. Which is very odd behavior for a supposedly desperate, collapsing Russian garrison that should be trying to fight its way out of a trap. Instead, Russian sources at around the same time were reporting an advance into a village north of Pokrovsk and SW of the salient. All very odd if you believe Western propaganda - why were the Russians launching an offensive to further encircle Pokrovsk, if literally just a mile or two away those forces should be trying to save an encircled Russian army?

With the news and videos released today it is apparent the Ukrainian counteroffensive has been ground down; the Russians soaked up the attacks and attritted the Azov battalion, and are now pushing forward, broadening the salient. They wouldn't do this so long as they thought they could tempt the Ukrainians to keep throwing troops into the "vulnerable" zone to try to score a major victory against Russia. With the effective loss of the Azov brigades as a potent strike force Ukraine will struggle to mount any counter-offensives in the future above the level of a single brigade.

Putin has mocked this idea, because it really is stupid. Russia of all countries doesn't need more acreage. What is does need is security against hostile and aggressive armies on its borders. The anti-democracy coup in Ukraine in 2014 showed the NATO aggressors would not be stopped by political appeasement.

Should read "Azov brigades". Not sure why my brain came up with battalion.

--- "This is why mucus has abandoned his Ukraine troll and shifted to an India/H1-B troll."

That might be a bit unfair. Perhaps by October, he finally realized what he posted in March was correct....

"Putin's botched invasion of Ukraine is over."

"Is" -- a verb made more famous by Clinton's wonderful "depends" -- is in the present tense, as used last march.

Grammatically, that which "is" applied to last March becomes "was" as a present tense?

Do you really believe the nonsense you write, or is it just what the boss wrote in the talking points?

he anti-democracy coup in Ukraine in 2014

Do you mean the one where the people rejected a Russian front-man and then he resigned and ran home to Russia?

What about the elections after that? You seem to have forgotten about the fact that the Ukrainian people voted democratically and selected their leadership.

Russia has tried to take over Ukraine for 3 and a half years....to no avail... which is a fact. Russia is using motor cycles and donkeys and bicycles and now horses in the war. Ukraine destroys refineries every other day. Russia looses 800-1000 men off the battlefield every day.

And all Russia can do is bomb hospitals and schools and apartment buildings .

And you Russian Bots think anyone besides other Russian bots believe that Russia has a chance? Where is the Black Sea Fleet? Russia cannot use Nukes because they know most of them might not work. And all you Russia Bots can do now is attack me personally... That doesn’t help Russia one bit...

While all is not ended as yet, all wars come to some sort of end. Those who assisted in extending this war have "helped" usher Ukrainian, Russian and probably a number of foreign soldiers of fortune to their demises. They will justify it as worthwhile.

As Blumenthal's chum, Lindsey Graham, said, "it's the best money we've ever spent."

It’s the best money we’ve ever spent US Senator Lindsey Graham, during a meeting with Zelenskyy 11 seconds....

Not to worry, Ukraine is in the process of turning out the lights in Russia too.

Hey, howdy! Nice links through "nitter" as hosted by "poast.org."

Following these links of yours, one learns that "OSINTdefender" leaves a nice trail --- to:

You'd not responded to our wee exhcnage of last month in which your source of that exchange tracked back -- with hotlinks to verify the whole -- to George Soros and his Open Soicety Foundations.

47 posted on 9/28/2025, 10:43:21 AM To: freeandfreezing -- a discussion of your "reporter" and proof with hotlinks of his links to the Soros Open Society Foundations.

This one, in a cursory examination, tracks back to the state of Georgia, some guy republishing other's short videos as "proof." I'll look further, because it's fun to "track back" a trail of internet breadcrumbs people leave.

I do all my propaganda pro bono; I doubt there is a Russian on the face of the planet who is aware of my existence. Sorry to disappoint you globalist sycophants, who as usual are projecting and hypocritical in what you say.
