RUSSIA-UKRAINE WARNING UPDATE: NEW INDICATORS OF IMMINENT RUSSIAN ATTACK (Tomorrow! oh noes!)

Russia may launch an attack on Ukraine on Saturday, February 19, 2022. The attack would likely begin with an air and missile campaign targeting much of Ukraine to decapitate the government and degrade the Ukrainian military as well as the ability of Ukrainian citizens to prepare to resist a subsequent Russian invasion. US and allied governments have been warning of such an attack for some days, pointing to the size of the Russian forces concentrated on Ukraine’s borders.[1] Western officials have additionally said that Russian troops have moved to jumping-off positions for an invasion over the past 24 hours. The following additional conditions and indicators point to February 19 as an optimal date for a Russian attack:

1. Ukrainian President Volodymir Zelensky will be in Germany at the Munich Security Conference. He is scheduled to speak at 1530 Munich time.[2]

His absence from Ukraine will degrade his ability to coordinate a response to any Russian attack and create more propitious circumstances for a Russian-sponsored attempt at a coup d’etat. Russian forces could close Ukrainian airspace to prevent Zelensky from returning to Kyiv.

I recognize that you and other folks here jump to conclusions when anyone reports anything which doesn’t agree with your take on the Nato/Russian/Nato US situation. I choose to look at all sides and also report what I’ve found or known because most Freepers are looking for the truth...as am I.

It’s no secret that Ukraine might attempt to take back the areas of conflict.....an
d it’s no secret the militias take pot shots because they’re afraid of false flags from both sides that would kick off a war nobody wants.

rbmillerjr “It’s obvious to all ... except Russian trolls... what is happening.

This is more pretext for invasion by the Russians, to protect those poor, poor poor Russian minorities.”

Mac_truck “Whats “obvious” here Bob is you’re a liar and deep state hack.”

rbmillerjr “Damn you are a thin skinned little Russian, much like the 5’5” Pout’n Putin.”

And Rbmillerjr is correct TWICE in succession!!
