Ukraine Losing the War Big Time
Armstrong Economics ^ | 9 Feb 2024 | Martin Armstrong

Posted on 02/09/2023 5:32:42 PM PST by delta7

I reported last week that my source from Ukraine, not Russia, was placing the Ukrainian military casualties at 150,000 with 35,000 unaccounted for – missing in action. Including the civilian deaths, over 250,000 people have died. Ukraine is losing the war.

With the UK claiming they will now train Ukrainian pilots and provide fighter jets, this is obviously putting the UK at risk and such pilots with a few weeks of training will only crash and burn.

Our targets coming into play for April and May are critical. We see major shifts in the financial markets coming even by June. The West has sacrificed the Ukrainian population in an effort to weaken Russia so they can run in and destroy Russia. Just as their plans for the Iraq War and Vietnam never worked out, this is only risking the security of the entire world for this Neocon nonsense where they always love war and hate every Russian – period! There is absolutely no reason for this war. It has been deliberately provided by the West

This time, our computer warns, perhaps like the Oracle of Delphi, who told the King of Lydia that if he waged war against Persia, he would destroy a great empire. He presumed that meant Persia and not his own. Socrates confirms the West will lose this one. This is totally unnecessary and pointless. We stand absolutely NOTHING to gain from this war – only losses. The Neocons always want war and they NEVER think what if they lose?

Some believe that supplying these arms is merely pretending to support Ukraine for they know that this will not prevent their loss. The West will be in a position to then wage war against Russia directly and they are hoping for Putin to attack outside of Ukraine to be the excuse. They will use Ukraine as a play for revenge against evil Russia. They have pumped out nothing but bullshit propaganda knowing that Ukraine stood ZERO chance of defeating Russia.

The West will then count the dead civilians and proclaim that they are just going in to wage war against evil Russia lying to the people with every breath they take. So get prepared, for as we cross into 2024, we will be approaching 51.6 years since the end of the military draft in the United States.

The draft law was due to expire at the end of June 1971. But Nixon decided it needed to continue and asked Congress to approve a two-year extension. In March 1973, 1974, and 1975, the Selective Service assigned draft priority numbers for all men born in 1954, 1955, and 1956. However, the draft was never extended. It will probably be reinstated in 2024/2025.

In 1973 when the Arab armies did their sneak attack on Israel from all 3 sides during the Yom Kippur war - Israel nearly lost that war. They literally had to move troops from one front to another just as soon as they had stabilized one of the fronts.

Anyway, Egypt had already lost badly in 1967 - they lost the Sinai and the Canal - so they had Soviet jets but this time they used Soviet pilots too. Didn’t help. Israel shot nearly all of them down while losing only a few themselves. Using mostly French and British planes.

Because Egypt lost twice with Soviet support and even Soviet command, they realized they had enough, they could not win, and ultimately agreed to make peace with Israel brokered by Carter at Camp David. We flipped Egypt from Soviet to US influence. It was and still is a relatively cold peace but better than a war.

Russia has a much larger population to draw cannon fodder from while Ukraine is being ground down. Unless Ukraine can deliver a miracle knock out of Russia, they will eventually lose.

Is Armstrong Economics affiliated with Herbert W Armstrong? Or is it just the same name?

Moving troops from front to front is normal, and the possibility of doing so is a major advantage of having a central position.

Israel did the same in 1967, moving troops to take the Golan after the West Bank front stabilized.

The same thing happened in 1973. After crossing the Suez and trapping the Egyptian 3rd army, troops were transferred to the Golan to counterattack there, and threaten Damascus, when the ceasefire froze the fronts. IMHO, have read several accounts of 1973, Israel was very far from losing. Herzog, “War of Atonement” may be best. It took time to mobilize, but after that victory was just a matter of available time before a ceasefire was imposed.

From my understanding, they were surprised by the invasion and were losing badly the first day or two, but eventually pushed back fast and hard. War lasted only a few days and you’re right they gained the upper hand quickly and the cease fire stopped them from Damascus. Kissinger.

Also, in 1973 Israel was attacked from two sides, not three - on the Golan and along the Suez canal.

In 1967 the war was on three fronts - Suez/Gaza, the West Bank and the Golan.

The worst crisis was on the Golan but they did get reinforcements there in time. However the Syrians were in such bad shape that even if a column of theirs had gotten down from the Golan I doubt it would have been decisive. It would just have entered a hornets nest.

International consensus is building that it’s in their best interest to avoid Americans and their printed dollars at all costs.

It’s understood they’ll blow up their pipelines and seize their assets on a malicious whim too and then lie about it and most Americans will go along with that, considering it a “patriotic duty”.

And now the prospect of just destroying all countries that disagree is now proven as fiction. The US can talk the talk but can’t walk the walk and the thinking world sees this, plain as day.

If Armstrong had been around in 1942, he would have argued that we could not hold the West Coast and need to withdrawal to the Rockies…
