So?
can you say propaganda......
Let’s see how the game plays out as freezing winter temperatures come to Ukraine and Europe.

He could live in luxury in a few friendly countries like Belarus or Syria. North Korea is nice for those in the favored circle. But alas, he would lose his power and power is all he has.
UKRAINE’S MILITARY DEATH THROES
Let me state up front that there are many brave, courageous Ukrainian soldiers fighting for their nation. Unfortunately, many of these soldiers are irredeemable bigots. It is indisputable that many in the ranks of the Azov battalion celebrate Nazi “theology” and embrace Adolf Hitler. No amount of rewriting history can erase the bloody legacy Hitler carved into the land and peoples of Europe during the Second World War.
So what are we to make of Justin Banse? You will meet him in the following video (at link). He does not strike me as a racist or an anti-semite. He seems like a fairly normal 22 year old who is not a deep thinker and not well educated. Maybe that explains how he could have joined forces with some modern day Nazis.
If you take the time to watch the video — warning, it is more than 3 hours long — you will understand my confusion. It is a shame that the guy conducting the interview is so clueless. He should have pressed Justin to explain how he could excuse the Nazi beliefs and then fight along side the Azov guys. But he did not.
In a way, Justin is a victim of his prior military service with the United States. What he experienced as combat against the Taliban (I’m assuming that he did), was not real war. His testimony in this video perfectly illustrates a point that Andrei Martyanov makes repeatedly — i.e., the United States has not experienced a peer to peer war since Korea. Justin’s account also confirms a point I have made in previous posts about the lack of artillery and air support for attacking Ukrainian units. They are relying solely on ground forces and vehicles and those are no match for heavy artillery, rockets, missiles and aerial strafing.
Justin does inadvertently reveal the problems facing the Ukrainian soldiers. For example, he states that the 200 man company he was assigned to was ordered to Mariupol. He was left behind and the company was wiped out. None returned, according to Justin.
I feel sorry for the kid. His very soul was scarred by this experience and it will haunt him for the rest of his life. He has discovered the sickening reality of war that combat veterans of World War I and World War II experienced, regardless of the army they fought for.
Justin’s account of the casualties inflicted on his unit corroborates the daily briefings by the Russian Ministry of Defense. Some Western analysts have insisted that the Russians are lying or exaggerating. Based on Justin’s emotional recounting of his experience, it would appear the Russian MOD is understating the casualties inflicted on Ukrainian units.
I think the war in Ukraine is entering a new phase. Russia has reinforced troops on the front and supplied them with additional fire power. At some point before the end of the year I anticipate that Russia will launch a massive counter offensive. No matter how tenaciously and bravely the Ukrainian troops fight, they are at a disadvantage. They have limited supplies of artillery shells, reduced armor and no air support. While not impossible, it is unlikely that they will be able to stop a full blown Russian attack across a broad front.
Compounding the dilemma of the Ukrainian troops is the growing difficulty to resupply their front line fighters with ammunition, weapons, food and vehicles. Russia’s strategy of crippling the electrical power grid of Ukraine is working and this, in turn, is making it more difficult to keep open the lines of communication.
I hope you take the time to watch this video. While it is the story of just one soldier caught in hell, I believe it is representative of what Ukrainian soldiers are experiencing in their battles with Russia.
Every time I see headlines from this publication it reminds me of the supermarket tabloids I saw as a kid when passing through the checkout line. It seems that even freeper’s are addicted to trash.
I would put this article in my “DUH” folder...
Once the CIA convinced the world that Russia didn’t liberate Ukraine in three days from the NATO/EU-Nazis, it’s been nonstop lies. Each more ridiculous than the other one.
But, should it be reported that President Putin fell over a balcony, let me warn you in advance it didn’t happen.
First, President Putin doesn’t own any penthouse apartments, and would never have any affairs or other reasons to go to such a place.
And, President Putin wouldn’t go onto a balcony if somehow he was in a penthouse apartment because of a well-known incident as a child. And anyone who claims not to know of this incident reveals himself to be an American agent and should be shot.
And, if President Putin were to fall over a balcony, he would be rescued by a military helicopter that always accompanies him just in case of such a thing.
And, besides all this, President Putin is qualified as a commando parachutist and would safely glide to the ground in a squirrel suit where he would be welcomed by a spontaneous crowd of thankful Russians and other nationalities that are part of glorious Russia. This includes many Ukrainians.
But, if something were to befall President Putin, it would be because of the Nazi CIA, which is unbelievable anyway because they are so incompetent.
Just thinking about it for a second reveals what would have to happen. The CIA must have bribed a Russian double-agent to do it. It’s the only possibility.
Yes, that’s our story and we’re sticking to it.
Oleksiy Arestovich works for Andre Yermak, who runs the unelected Presidential Administration which runs the country, as well as its figurehead and main PR guy, Zelinski.
Arestovich job is to mind Zelinski, making sure he does what he is told. Remember the government of Ukraine operates like a small version of the Soviet Union, where many of its people either worked or admire.
Andre Yermak is strongly suspected of being a Russian agent, working for the FSB/KGB. Andre Yermak was born in the Zaporizhya region, his father is Russian and is a long time KGB agent.
When the last government fell, Yermak fled back to Russia. Two months before the Feb invasion, he had all the mine fields separating Crimea from Ukraine cleared, thus allowing the Russians to take Southern Ukraine with ease.
The thing about the Daily Mail…if you miss the first sentence..they repeat it thirty more times in the story.
