Please don’t post that here, the media, DNC, Soros, and their apologists here want us to thing that Ukraine is winning.

You make it only more difficult for them.

Why would anyone believe the media?

These ex-military are popping up all over the place.

I saw that creep Petraeus on Kilmeade this evening.

Old soldiers never die, they just keep getting regurgitated on FOX.

Puke! 🤮

“...one of the more famous shots is an attack helicopter being ambushed. And you can’t ambush an attack helicopter unless it’s flying a route you knew it was going to be on.”

And a camera was conveniently located in the right spot and facing the right direction to capture the kill shot. The camera was steady indicating it was mounted, but it slightly tracked the helo after it was hit. I was wondering how that video was captured.

I think the strong Ukrainian resistance has kind of thrown a kink into the playbook. We all know that Biden telegraphed to Putin that we were fine with him taking the Seperatist regions in Ukraine, so you can figure the EU was on board as well.

The plan was that Russia would swoop in and demolish Ukrainian resistance in a matter of days, (according to the Russian battle plan, they thought it would over in 4 days and didn't even carry enough provisions for more than a week). The West would make a show of wringing their hands and putting some sanctions on Russia. Then Ukraine would be forced to the bargaining table, Russia would get what they wanted, and West would quietly remove the sanctions in a couple months.

Except Ukraine actually put up a real fight. They stalled Russia for days, then weeks and we are now into the third week and Russia is still barely advancing.

So now the West is kind of stuck, they have to bow to public pressure and take some "real" action against Russia, and the longer the war goes on, the more anti-Russian sentiment will force them to do even more.

That's why you are seeing some leaders getting desperate and essentially begging Ukraine to surrender "for the good of the Ukrainian people".

“Hanson said the offer from Poland”

Bull. Poland was responding to the US Blinken’s “green light”. We were the ones escalating the war, not Poland.

The question is will the Russians nuke Kyiv in order to conquer Kyiv?

I no longer know what to believe. Haven’t for years.

Wait a minute... there might be legal precedent. Of course! Land-snatching!

Land, land... “Land: see Snatch.” Ah, Russia vs. Ukraine. Russia: 7, Ukraine: nothing. You see, it can be done!

...And Russian troops far-outnumbered the Kaiser’s troops in WWI.

Same dynamic in play here, except Russia is the invader and occupier. Even less popular with the Russian people.

Kramer was right. Ukraine is weak.

It’s difficult to get a clear objective picture of what is happening, but this analysis seems to provide the most reasonable account that matches the bits and pieces of believable information.

A matter of time. And casualties. Just depends on how many Russia is willing to accept.

He’s right Putin is not planning to occupy the Ukraine. He’s getting rid of the NWO there.

It is still the consensus analysis, that Russia can dominate in the Ukraine by force, but the cost keeps climbing, the longer the Ukrainians resist, and the West supports them.

It seems to me that the Biden Administration has been careful to keep aid to the Ukrainians below the level that might actually change the outcome. Not in it to win it, just doing enough to cover their butts from criticism that could hurt them politically.
