I know that propaganda on all sides exist what I find fascinating is that only “good” news for Ukraine is fake I remember you posting that Crimea bridge damage was fake news and here a month later bridge is still not able to handle heavy traffic, kherson retreat is fake nees and your post of Ukrainians losses like almost 6000 tanks which is almost twice what has been reported that the Russians had totally in service while Russian losses of around 1500 you call fake news lol fascinating

“”One large factor is the Russian army is in a miserable supply/logsitics situation. Knocking out the Kerch Bridge railway lines was a master stroke.””

Go back and read those threads, the people here using Russian sources were mocking the idea it was knocked out and were sure that the damage was mostly cosmetic and used their sources to tell us that only hours or a day or so were lost in using the bridge and railway.

“... your post of Ukrainians losses like almost 6000 tanks which is almost twice”

And yet you suck down the ORYX numbers of 360 Ukrainian tanks destroyed, etc. like fresh made cotton candy.

Ironic huh?

Riddle me this: Why is ZelenskyyIdiot steadily begging for tanks, planes, artillery, AFVs, etc. IF IT IS NOT BEING DESTROYED or put out of action?

Move along.
That bridge your crawled from is missing you about now.

These videos are plenty, and they are proudly uploaded by known Ukrainian accounts, mostly by the very same individuals you can see as peeps on videos.
Our resident zeepers are ignoring them or say that they are fake.
Yet, they talk for days about ‘Russian atrocities’ even though there is zero material evidence short of interviews of alleged ‘victims’.

The great Russian army it seems is nothing more than a turd-world nation with nukes.

Their old nukes probably rusted-out pieces of junk as well.

N. Korea, Iran, China, Russia.

Russian Soldiers Reportedly Panicking, Resorting to 'Self-Mutilation'

"It turns out that we are stormtroopers, not territorial defenders!" russians mobilized from Tomsk found out that the they were deceived, and now complain that they are being forced to go into battle. According to this "stormtrooper" since October 26 they have never held an assault rifle.

The "stormtrooper" also said that during their "training" they were taken once to the shooting range to throw grenades, which, by the way, they were not given, either. Moreover, the bus couldn't pick them up from the shooting range and they walked 10 kilometers back.

You know that the Kerch rail line was more crucial to disable/destroy. Russians say “Full repairs by July”

Go here and scroll down just a bit and you will find two video from November 4th showing the progress on Kerch repairs. And it is miserable

The real Kerch Bridge riddle is how did the Ukrainians manage to destroy the railway and roadway in one stroke? I saw one report that the British demolition experts/ civil engineers helped for months to plot out Kerch weak points. This just might be true.

Doubly delicious due to the British vs Russians going way back on Crimea -— “The Charge of the Light Brigade”

It was an extraordinary strike against the enemy, I look forward to learning about it in time.

I don’t believe MSN. I don’t believe Ivan, the Ukrainians, the MSM, the US government-especially US intelligence and DOD, I don’t believe western intelligence or their military and certainly not anything coming out of the current US regime in Washington.

If you still believe anything from the CIA, NSA, DNI, FBI etc... after their record of untold lies, and complete and utter failures, where thousands of GI’s and American citizens have died or been maimed at this point you are the sucker they are hoping for when they spread their copious loads of horse crap.

...people here using Russian sources were mocking the idea it was knocked out and were sure that the damage was mostly cosmetic...

To refresh our memory...here's a picture of the cosmetic damage.

I have a radical theory on the Kerch bridge attack...I now believe it was a Russian attack, approved by Putin.

Why? Because Putin needed rationale to attack Ukrainian infrastructure.

The explosion had to be big enough to be believable.

Who would have thought that a truck bomb would drop a span?

The biggest mystery is: How was the bomb triggered?

I am probably wrong, but that's my theory and I am sticking to it.

Meanwhile, the electric grid is on the verge of collapse in Ukraine. How can a nation win a war without a functioning electric grid? How can it win a war when the other side owns the airspace and can takeout a nation's electric grid?

How many more Ukrainians have to die and how many more millions of refugees will have to leave and damage the economies further of out European nations?

https://www.moonofalabama.org

The targeting of 330 kilovolt transformers in various switching stations has cut some 50% of the distribution capability of Ukraine's electricity network. These transformers weigh up to 200 tons. There are no replacements. You do not buy them at the next corner but will have order them with years of lead time. As far as I can tell Russia is currently Russia the only producer of transformers of that type.

###

The lack of energy is degrading the railway network that brings weapons from the west to the eastern front. It makes redeployment of units from one front section to another very difficult and time consuming. It will give the Russian forces the advantage when they change the Schwerpunkt of their attacks from one corner of the frontline to another.

Another effect of the strikes on the electricity systems and the blackouts in the big cities that follow them is a renewed stream of refugees that will want reach western Europe. It will over time change the public opinion and the political priorities of those countries. If they fail to end the war they will have to carry the burden.

You're a fool. The only territory Ukraine has taken back are areas the Russians chose not defend. The Ukrainians haven't nor couldn't win an actual battle with the Russian militaru.

Meanwhile, Russia is clearing out what is left of the Ukrainian military in Donbass, which as the primary objective when the war began.

And, never mind, that Ukrainian electric grid is on the verge of collapse, millions are again without power and the system can only survive with by implementing rolling blackouts.

Russia, you dunce, OWNS the airspace and Ukrainians do not have an adequate air defense.

You can't win war under those conditions.

You're a deluded fool spread propaganda for the Biden regime.
