Russia on brink of humiliation - Ukraine 'within striking distance' of Crimea water supply
EXPRESS ^ | Russia on brink of humiliation - Ukraine 'within striking distance' of Crimea water supply | CLAIRE ANDERSON

Posted on 06/16/2022 1:39:41 AM PDT by GonzoII

Ukraine has made significant advances close to Kherson to the point of controlling the water supply in Crimea. Professor Michael Clarke, who specialises in defence studies, explained Ukraine is within striking distance of the supply. Speaking to Sky News, he said: "The Ukrainians are conducting quite a big offensive to take back Kherson. "They've opened up a 50-mile front to the northeast of Kherson and there are reports over the last 24 hours that the Ukrainians may have got as far as Kiselivka which is quite close to Kherson.

"They may be within striking distance of Nova Kakhovk which is a dam which controls the water supply in Crimea.

"Ukraine would love to retake that and be back in control of that supply.

"We're keeping a very close eye on those two areas because that battle is so far developing in Ukraine's favour as the days go on."

Putinistas are not that popular outside of the internet. They’re rightfully seen as freaks.

It’s not us, it’s them. That tiny unpopular fringe can spam a lot more than they represent on websites.

The Pontic Greeks were in Mariupol centuries before the Russians or Ukrainians.

There have been Pontic Greeks from Mariupol, interviewed and testifying on their experiences after they fled to GREECE. Interviewed by regular publications of Greece.

Do you know who they consistently blame for being the worst abusers of human rights? Who they were most afraid of? Azov battalion, the Ukrainian troops who had their headquarters there.

These people had no reason to lie, their sincerity is clear.

Did you know that more than 1/3rd of the troops the Ukrainian government troops are fighting, are Ukrainian themselves?

I wonder what they saw and experienced over the past 8 years that made them do that.

Russia never cut off gas supplies to Ukraine in the middle of winter...And Ukraine soldiers defected by the thousands when the battle for Crimea was raging.

Sure!

But first, the Ruskies must recover from...

-Putin’s cancer
-Losing a general a day
-Losing a colonel a day
-Losing Mariumpl
-Losing a 100 tanks a day
-Collapse of the Russian economy

Then, the Ukes can destroy the Russian water.

Not a single argument as usual. Your SOP is to spill lies and then insults as your lies are countered with facts&logic. Then you switch topics or spill more insults.

Not at all surprising.

During the special military operation, the Ukrainian army continues to suffer significant losses .

❗️I would like to emphasize that in recent weeks, incidents of shooting Ukrainian servicemen in the back by nationalist units have become more frequent in the areas of hostilities . So, after conducting fire preparations for the offensive of Russian troops in the area of ​​​​the settlement of Novomikhailovka (DPR), more than 30 servicemen of the 25th battalion of the 54th mechanized brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine decided to lay down their arms and surrender.

◾️The Ukrainian servicemen, who occupied a stronghold in the area of ​​the Animal Farm , braced themselves by radio to the command of the Russian unit to cease fire and provide an exit corridor. At about 10 p.m., servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with white flags began to advance towards the Russian positions .

◾️At that moment, a detachment of Ukrainian nationalists , who arrived at the strong point on armored vehicles, opened crossfire at the servicemen of the 54th brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the back .
As a result of this shooting , 32 Ukrainian servicemen were fatally wounded and killed .

◾️This incident, like many others like it, clearly shows that against the backdrop of growing military failures and the demoralization of Ukrainian troops, the Kiev nationalist regime is trying to stop the retreat and surrender of its units by punitive actions of detachments .

◾️The lives of Ukrainian servicemen and mobilized fighters of territorial defense units mean nothing to the current leadership of Ukraine.

The French medic who went to Ukraine to help the Ukrainians was shocked at all the war crimes he personally saw the Ukrainians commit. He is personally putting himself in danger by reporting this. He even covers the shelling at Bucca and indicates it came from the Ukrainians.

He personally watched and filmed the Ukrainians taking Russian POWs from vans carrying 3 or 4 at a time...asking them if they were officers. If they said no they were shot in the knee. If they said yes they were shot in the head.

He told the French government about it and the French media. They wouldn’t touch it because it went against the narrative the West is pushing.

Here’s another look at the people the West is supporting:

Anyone who continues to believe Big Media lies and deep state lies will be frustrated inside their make believe bubble.

-Two weeks to flatten the curve
-The Russians are losing badly
-The Russians are running back to Russia.
-ghost of kiev
-this development is THE gamechanger that will lead to Uke victory.
-the Uke’s are winning on all fronts and will wrap this up in days if not weeks

Congratulations, you are now officially a nazi, just like your leftie brown-shirt antifa friends.

Explain why anyone in the United States would support Ukraine. It's a crime syndicate involving George Soros, Klaus Schwab, Jao Bai-din, Hunter Biden, Paul Pelosi, John Kerry Jr., Christopher Heinz (Kerry), and Alex Vindman.

Some of that group actively lied, created a false impeachment, and committed treason in an attempt to overthrow a sitting U.S. president.

Jao Bai-din bragged on camera about getting the Ukrainian prosecutor investigating Burisma Holdings fired. If supporting Ukraine is legitimate, let's see that investigation reopened.

Explain why anyone in the United States would support Ukraine.

Because they don't want Russia to be emboldened.

Because they want Russia's unprovoked invasion and massive land-grab to fail!

Because Ukraine will be only the first victim of Russian neo-imperialism.

Regards,

Some of these posters might also seem to be mere conspiracy theorists (though of the extremely fringy variety) and avowed isolationists (to the extent that they advocate retreating to our coastlines and allowing the rest of the world to go to hell in a handbasket), but that, too, may be just a cover.

Cover for what, exactly?

There is a way to get to the truth. It's called an investigation. If only your friend Jao Bai-din hadn't illegally shut it down.

Here, you can watch him yourself:
