Zelensky has rejected consistent advice from the Pentagon and others to pull back to preserve troops. He needs the optics of constant attack as if he were in that sort of ‘upper hand’ position even though he’s burning through soldiers he can’t afford to lose. There’s nothing wise about Zelensky- he’s a puppet doing what he’s told, working to keep the false optics going, the money flowing, as he tries to start WWIII.
“Burning through soldiers...” My God, what a picture!
“How many guys do we have just standing around holding their pants up? Well shit, give them guns and send them to Kharkiv. Or Kharkov, wherever. Kherson. I don’t know, send them.”
We can send them weapons all day long, but eventually they are going to run out of people to fire the weapons. If attrition is the name of the game, Russia can produce more dead bodies than Ukraine can.
And how do you know that? Wishcasting much?
The only time I heard about the Ukrainians ignoring US advice was the advance into Kherson. It appears they understood the facts on the ground better than we did.
