I get your point, but the mercs may have been more akin to conscripts ...

A little interrogation and writing analysis of the opening sentences of a Daily Beast article posted here are warranted.

"The Ukrainian army has deployed some of its best brigades to eastern Ukraine, including the 92nd and 93rd Mechanized Brigades and the 1st Presidential Brigade."

Now nine months into the war and in the deepening winter, why is it that only now "some of its best brigades" are being sent to eastern Ukraine?

"But these elite Ukrainian formations might not be the biggest killer of Russian troops in the east. Under-trained, under-supplied and ambivalently led, Russians in the region are freezing to death by the dozen."

One of the favorite modal verbs of the press worldwide is "might." Also might not. Why employ wiggle words in "news" reporting, as in "winter might be coming" MIGHT imply "winter might not be coming."

"Shocking videos that have circulated online in recent weeks tell a tragic story. The videos, shot by the Ukrainian brigades’ hovering drones...."

Videos shot by hovering drones which "have circulated online in recent weeks" tell a story. Of course. The sides in this conflict are telling stories. Their stories. Unsurprisingly they contradict. But to return to the modal verb, they also "might" not conflict, since one may be sure that both sides are experiencing death and the ravages of cold.

Besides "Allegedly Abandoned, Starving, and Missing in Action" applies to another post to "secret" Russian recruits, because of course "secrets" are not secret when printed in media worldwide, and "allegedly" is akin to "might."

Here are some wiggle word statements. Ukraine might be winning the war. Russia might be winning the war. Russian soldiers might be dying of hypothermia. Ukrainian soldiers might be dying of hypothermia. Allegedly as we read "news" we "might" come to conclusions that the "news" "might" wish us to come to accept.

In the contest which is a violent circus with its vicious clowns on more than one side, I might learn in time which side will have won a war. Until then, allegedly "might" speaks volumes about media, and not about what "might" be happening, when "might" appears in sentences about what we should accept "is" happening. Might we?

‘Expendable Wagner mercs.’

And they steadily kicking collective Ukie ass, daily.

I am beginning to think you jealous that your not apart of that exclusive group of ass-kickers.
You are not Wagner material.
See they have a code of conduct and a fraternity to each other, one that causes virtually all of them to opt to take their own lives rather than be captured by any Ukie.
That alone automatically removes you.

Black water might do its but they expect it be paid up front with a western letter of credit in Switzerland backing future payments.

In other words, Russia can’t afford them.

“And they steadily kicking collective Ukie ass, daily.”

Funny how they seem to have been retreating on all fronts for months, in’t it?

From the Telegraph: "Ukraine's security service intercepted an audio recording of a call from a soldier to his family, who said they were desperate for meat...."

Ukraine tells the story, sourced to them, telling the story they say is sourced to another. He said, She said. And, "might be" but then again :might not be."

What we may be sure of because the chain of evidence is more detailed is that "Emma Thompson Says People Will Start Eating Their Pets For 'Protein'...." From 2019.

What's for dinner? Might be meat. Might not be meat. Might be desperation. Might not be desperation. But for sure we read that those in the West -- Britain still counts, allegedly -- might start eating their pets for protein. Even before the Russians -- might be spelled Ruzzian -- began their SMO.

We might be sure that an extinction rebellion is a way of telling the tale. Might be the Russians' extinction. Might be the Ukrainians extinction. Might be Russian-speaking Ukrainians' extinction. Might be. Allegedly. Could be. Maybe.
