Yegorovka is found on Google Maps as Horlivka, or Gorlovka, and it is about 60 miles South and slightly East of Izium (Izyum), but yes, it is beyond the reported Russian advance front line.

You have to suspect these mercenaries are contractors, possibly on the payroll of what used to be Blackwater. The pay is better than with American or British special forces but so is the risk. Neither Washington nor London will formally acknowledge them and both capitals will claim they are volunteers.

First off, I always love your posts...great sense of sarcasm even if some of the dimwitted here don’t get it...:-)

I actually do have some sympathy for this dope, though. I read his obituary and saw dozens of social media pictures of the little family in the making (Joshua, fiance, 2 yr. old son.) Also saw the picture of his Ukrainian passport in addition to the American one. Apparently that is a mechanism the Ukrainians are using.

He was like most of his generation an under achiever. His bio was “gamer”...father...fiance.

At the start of the conflict Ukrainian oligarchs “hired” 4,000 well paid mercs. 1,000 of which were American.

Since the guy had nothing going for him and was now a father I speculate that he was enticed by that offer.

The info about his death showed he was trying to get away, but it also shows how evil the Ukrainian nazis are...mined so that you won’t attempt to get away.

God bless his little boy whom the pictures showed he loved very much.

Unfortunately they volunteered to fight for Ukraine with the understanding they could die there. Fighters die in conflicts regardless of where the conflict is.

They made their choice to go to Ukraine but they are the kind of people who might be a problem for people in high places as they build a new “carbon neutral” world.

It’s a way for the people in high places who promote the War in Ukraine to eliminate them.

I agree—he was a victim of the war—Used a second time as a focus of Propaganda. This shows how evil the people we are supporting are—Peace is the only answer.

“This shows how evil the people we are supporting are—Peace is the only answer.”


There can be no peace if evil is in control. Evil must be defeated if there is to be peace.

We didn’t ever choose to “support Ukraine”. We chose to use it. We couldn’t care less and never did care about the welfare of Ukraine or the Ukrainians.

We bought Ukraine. We bought it to use as a tool for us to pressure, destabilize and eventually take down Putin/Russia (or what we euphemistically refer to as “containing our competitors/adversaries”.) We trained the nazi troops particularly because we were confident that their hatred and brutality would be useful in achieving victory. We pour weapons and money continuously in the effort.

We are now coming up on almost 300,000 Ukrainian casualties. Zelensky has told the EU that 400,000-450,000 is the critical number; but he does not expect to reach it prior to March, 2023.

I repeat my point, evil must be defeated before there can be peace. Unfortunately our permanent “deep state”, globalist, elitists, WEF, “new world order” centralized world government IS THE EVIL.
