"Retired four-star US army Gen. Jack Keane said Sunday he believes Ukrainians have a good chance of defeating Russia — while claiming the White House has been encouraging Ukraine to “make a deal’’ with Moscow to end the war......
....Keane added that an “excellent source” told him President Biden’s administration has been encouraging Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to “make a deal” with the Russians, which he called “shameful.” His claim has not been independently verified.......

Are you kidding? That’s Jack Keene!
Quagmires seem to work. Russia is setting the Ukraine back dozens of years... probably more.
The Ruble can be up 300% and it still doesn’t matter when there are no stores open for shopping. When all the Malls closed down………
The Ukrainians probably have libraries full of crooked deals done with the European and United States elites. If Russia wins, Putin might just publish ALL of it.
I do believe this guy is also CEO of the company which supplies the military its Humvees. Take his advice with a grain of salt due the military/industrial complex.
Yes, let them win the war so they can finish the job of ethnically cleansing eastern Ukraine …
Deal?
The Big Guy gets 10% min.
ha ha ha hahahaha. Who is sending his offshore accounts money to come to such conclusions?
Ukrainians [can] actually … win,....
Yes.
The orcs are retreating from the northern front. 40K casualties in one month. What’s left are digging in and laying mines. That won’t work against reaper drones. Long range arty and aerial bombing with WW2 surplus is what they’re down to.
80k Uke expatriates have returned. I’ve read they don’t have enough weapons to equip all of them but they’re on the way.
pootski is looking at a 300k man Uke army with modern western weapons going up against his clown show that doesn’t want to be there.
Yes, the Ukes can and will win. With 70+% US support in the polls, they know biteme has to support them. They don’t care about any deals.
Couldn’t Vindman crush Pooty just by sitting on him?
Russia already won.
In this thread:
All of the Putin suckers demonstrating their Putin love, all in one place. One after another.
It’s disgraceful to have this many Russia lovers on a supposedly pro American site. And it’s driving away people.
But, it’s Russian Soldier killing season. And business is good.
There's a tsunami of misinformation out there.
Remember - he knows AMERICAN doctrine, not so much Russian doctrine.
For every Russian tank or plane destroyed in the Ukraine, it will take Putin that much longer until he is ready for his next target.
The greater the losses, the lower the profit incentive for future aggression.
Inflict the maximum possible cost.
Punish aggression.

“I wonder what his FReeper name is.”
JohnnyinJuneau. SpazzyinChicago, VicinVermont. Some like that.
“I always like listening to General Jack Keane so I will give him some respect for this answer.”
Goddamn right! He is a REAL general in the old school sense of the word. These drips on here who are bad mouthing him aren’t fit to shine his shoes.
Retired USAF here who spent three years behind the Iron Curtain in West Berlin. I know REAL generals when I see them.
See post #35. This guy isn’t a TV general,he earned his stars through combat not by kissing up
I’ve heard Keane for a long time and thot most of his discussions were pretty weak and not nearly as instructional as one would expect from a guy who might be leading the convoy at some time. But in the past few weeks he sounds more like he’s been paying attention. As a 4-star, retired or not, he would have access to updates, etc. in case he gets the call and I’ll give him a little slack for seeming to get into the game.
He's worried about his bodily fluids being corrupted by fluoride......
