The highly classified leaked Pentagon documents posted to social media offer a pessimistic US viewpoint about the state of the war in Ukraine, highlighting weaknesses in Ukraine’s weaponry and air defenses and predicting a stalemate in the war for months to come.
The documents, which appear to date from February and March, detail many of Ukraine’s perceived military shortfalls as Kyiv prepares for a spring counteroffensive against Russia.
Several of the classified documents warn that Ukraine’s medium-range air defenses to protect front-line troops will be “completely reduced by May 23,” suggesting Russia could soon have aerial superiority and Ukraine could lose the ability to amass ground forces in a counteroffensive.
The documents also underscore lingering problems with Russia’s own military offensive, predicting that the result will be a stalemate between the two sides for the foreseeable future.
“Russia’s grinding campaign of attrition in the Donbas region is likely heading toward a stalemate, thwarting Mosco’s goal to capture the entire region in 2023,” states one of the classified documents.

It’s over.
There was such a big leak. All sorts of info not just one document.
It seems like either a high level leak or intentional disinformation for Russian consumption.
What do you think?
running out of missles means “ we need to send them more money”
translation. More kickbacks for us...
It’s “amazing” that these leaked docs have leaped to the front of the story queue on MSM outlets simultaneously.
Could there be a new narrative brewing?
CNN=No read.
Duh.
Anyone paying attention knows this.😂
The “leaked” document was perhaps the media’s exit ramp after propagandizing the American people (and many freepers) with lies for two years. As Mark Twain said it’s easier to fool people than it is to tell people they’ve been fooled.
Man all the aholes we’re dealing with these days have five letter last names.
Biden
Soros
Putin
Fauci
Gates
Obama
What do you mean? Ukraine is on the brink of victory!
Quagmire
Despite having risen to the lofty rank of SP5 during my stellar Army career I can’t claim any military expertise. But it’s still hard for me to imagine that KGB in Moscow losing a war of attrition like this.
It’s over.

Very easy to predict early on, the US and their pet Nazis were on the wrong side
shortly after 2018- when the US started building military bases and training centers in Ukraine funding went back to the Ukrainian Nazis.Deceased McCain made many trips to Ukraine and met with many of Neo-Nazis.
“Congress bans arms to Ukraine militia linked to neo-Nazis
BY REBECCA KHEEL - 03/27/18 1:42 PM ET
A little-noticed provision in the 2,232-page government spending bill passed last week bans U.S. arms from going to a controversial ultranationalist militia in Ukraine that has openly accepted neo-Nazis into its ranks.
House-passed spending bills for the past three years have included a ban on U.S. aid to Ukraine from going to the Azov Battalion, but the provision was stripped out before final passage each year.….”
Now it is not entirely over for the US’s pet Nazis, the US is getting desperate and may just escalate.
US is pessimistic Ukraine can quickly end war against Russia...
Based on that assessment from the US, Russia should wrap this up in a few weeks.
It’s intentional misinformation so the military industrial complex can have yet another war. It’s way too soon to end things. They haven’t needlessly had any American soldiers killed or permanently disabled yet.
excellent post, thanks.
Never thought of that til now, interesting
Trump has 5 letters, too. What’s your point?
These the same guys who predicted the traitor government in Kabul would stand?
