Although they are calling it a SURRENDER, they SURRENDERED. And, IMHO, there’s no shame in that when a unit is out of all means to fight/resist. It’s kinda funny to see Zelenskyy change his tune to “we need our heroes alive”.

Sounds like the DNC focus-group tested Zelensky’s statement before sending it to him.

They are prisoners and are being sent to the Donetsk republic...to be very, very carefully investigated. War criminals will be punished, severely. Unlike Russia herself, Donetsk has the death penalty most actively on the books.

No evacuation to fight again. They have to surrender and go into the pens to get sorted for war crimes. The Nazis are caught in the kessle just like Paulus.

He doesn’t give a rat’s ass about the fighters, he’s being pressured by NATO because they have some high ranking intelligence and military officials stuck there that they don’t want captured by the Russians.

Like these nazi heroes sporting the Schwarze Sonne. Himmler had it on the floor of Wewelsburg castle.

These were members of the Azov Battalion. Ok they are called heroes, but they are fascist nonetheless. So Ukraine got their fascist element back, not sure if it’s really so good for Ukraine to have them.

Azovstal defenders = neo-Nazis, ones that several civilians in Mariupol said used them as human shields, held them hostage and tried to kill them if they escaped.

But, you can't get it through your skull that there are truly evil people fighting on the Ukrainian side. But, God does know the truth.

This was over days ago. Does anyone think Critters like Cocaine Mitch And Looney Nance would visit a war zone if the fighting was still live? Iirc, there were something like 27 members of congress who visited Ukraine this past week.

My take...

1. Putin underestimated Ukraine on the 1st offensive, and their capabilities.
2. Putin is setting for the southeast of Ukraine, which is also the economic heart of it, and has the highest level of Russian speakers and Communist Ukranians who support Putin, Russia and the Soviet Union.
3. Putin haven’t played anything closest to his highest card yet, not including WMDs. He doesn’t want to show too much to NATO.
4. Putin is trying to bait Ukraine into launching an offensive into the Rissian held areas in the Southeast, in hopes of tearing apart what remains of Ukranie’s armed forces. Fixed in position Russia can cause alot of damage and potentially break Ukraines armed forces, or at minimum force a stalemate. They also have their own high tech drones, as well as their own supply of Turkish Baktyir drones (and ones captured from the Ukes). Iglas and Kornets are just as deadly if not more, than Javelins and Stingers.
5. Ukraine is suffering high losses, but is doing well in keeping the exact figures secret, even from NATO.
6. If Ukraine falls or Russia gets a victory in negotiations, Taiwan is soon to follow. The west can’t allow this. But of NATO gets into a shooting war with Russia China will invade anyway.
7. Sanctions have allowed Russia to do things internally that they haven’t been able to do since the “collapse” of USSR1. It also frees up more industry for war production.
