excerpted:

“..If there were a public announcement of a decision supporting Nuland, Blinken would likely have a heart attack – but the US is sending long-range bombs and artillery as well as bridging equipment essential to attack Crimea. If such an attack is not envisioned, the Ukrainians don’t need this kit.

Meanwhile, there seems to be very little coherent US opposition to the unfolding scenario of what could quickly become a general war in Europe...”

It’s been said Bakhmut was a strategic area. Why? There was something about terrain past it was free of obstacles for the Russians.

But there are not tall mountains or large swamps nearby. So what was so important about this town?

So Nuland the subordinate overruled her boss Blinken. And coming off a defeat in Bakhmut, she thinking they should do a frontal assault on Crimea, like the Brits, French and Nazis did with huge war machines and long heavy efforts. But all the hollow Ukes army will need is a few small diameter bombs and jets flying high over S400 batteries.

I used to think the Russians might think Nuland the Uke anchor baby might be a legitimate target. But I think they might be better served b u her setting policy.

“[W]e will support Ukraine for as long as it takes. Ukraine is fighting for the return of all of its land within its international borders. We are supporting them, including in preparing a next hard push to regain their territory…Crimea must be—at a minimum, at a minimum—demilitarized.” -- US UNDER SECRETARY OF STATE FOR POLITICAL AFFAIRS VICTORIA NULAND

That is as bat sh$t crazy as China saying that Hawaii must be demilitarized.

Nuland is a danger to the safety of every American.

“ Ukrainian forces are pulling out of Bakhmut and the battle for the small Donetsk city is nearly finished…”
**********************************************************

I wouldn’t be so sure of that. The taunts by the Wagner leader may have actually worked and SUCKERED Zelensky into ordering his forces to stay in those kill zones.

the battle for the small Donetsk city is nearly finished.

In true propaganda style, they ended this sentence without explaining that the AFU fled the city under a hail of Russian artillery
