Putin and Zelensky are both dictators.


Nonsense. Ukraine has had 5 Presidents since the KGB corporal occupied the Kremlin and two since Putin’s stooge was booted.

“Why didn’t England and France declare war against Russia?”

Because the Bank of England told them not to.

“Why didn’t England and France declare war against Russia?”

Because the treaty with Poland only applied to an attack by Germany.

You do hear peace ideas from the western nations, ‘leave Ukraine alone, and leave Ukraine’.

It became a shooting war because the Russian army attacked Ukraine.

I don’t understand why this became a shooting war between Russia and Ukraine.

Why did Russia attack?

So Russian tanks were peaceful and German tanks were bad?

Exactly. That “Zelensky is a dictator” nonsense is mindless Russian trash propaganda. It’s amazing the BS that people allow to permeate their minds.

Good. We don’t have to support them with our tax dollars anymore. Maybe we can spend it helping our fellow Americans now instead of defending foreigners 5,000 miles away.

Pro-Russia freepers used to list the reasons Russia needs Ukraine to rebuild the military power to threaten the world again, minerals, resources, agriculture/food control, population, technology know-how, ports, and such.

That is why Russia keeps mentioning the other countries it wants to take.

Interesting that you posted something from Charter 97%. It’s based in Poland and is funded with the help of Open Society, which is George Soros’ organization. So you’re promoting the views of the globalists when you post these stories. It helps to know who your “sources” are, don’t you think?

Every day I see more accounts on FR that look like WEF/Globalist propagandists.

I’ll believe it if and when it’s reported on the Military Summary Channel.

“Obtuse.”

No, pretty simple and direct. But, such simplicity may seem obtuse to you.

A example of how Russia shill logic works, and how to work backwards from it to figure out what is likely happening in reality, I.E. not online:

  1. Claim: Ukraine has enough of a foothold across the river Lyman is in reach of being retaken.
  2. Russian shill behavior: Multiple shills ignore this and at some point will switch to a new set of talking points to ignore it.
  3. Conclusion: Based on Russian Shill behavior, the reality is Ukraine is nearing position to retake Lyman.

My prediction:

  1. At some point, Ukraine will try to take Lyman, or take something of equivalent value, like the Kharkiv was to Kherson
  2. Russian shills: They will repeat Russian MOD talking points with their own embellishments and their own overused talking points.
    • To understand this, just watch Scott Ritter two or three times.
    • When you catch how untruthful Ritter really is, watching him is not fun.
    • (I just warned you, don't say I didn't.)
  3. Conclusion: Ukraine will have achieved another significant victory of the Russian army.

You deny reality.

Zelensky acts like a dictator.


He acts like a wartime president defending the interests of his nation. You obviously have a problem with that and wish he surrenders to one party state fascist Russia. That’s ok. Just don’t expect Ukrainians to agree.

Yes, things are progressing much more rapidly than people know. Russian soldiers are surrendering or running away en masse. They leave behind EVERYTHING. Tanks. APC. IFV. Guns. Ammo. Grenades. Rockets. Etc.

Ukraine has been shipped well over 30,000 various rockets. More than Russia has armored vehicles and aircraft COMBINED. Plus, the HUNDREDS they have captured from Russia. Plus, all their own equipment and ammo.

Just the other day Ukraine introduced into battle their own multiple rocket launcher. It can fire 12 rockets on a truck design. it isn’t as high-tech as HIMARS, but it can give blanket coverage similar to Russia’s systems.

The Putinist copium that Ukraine is “outgunned” has not been true for some time.

At this point, Ukrainian morale and success are so high, they don’t even NATO or the West’s help.
