Ukraine is ramping up for its highly anticipated spring offensive, powered by a huge arsenal of tanks and other weapons being delivered by Western allies, along with newly organized brigades.

“The frontline is priority number one. We are also actively preparing new brigades and units that will show themselves at the front,” President Volodymyr Zelensky said in a video address.

“Everyone in Ukraine must understand that the main task of the state is the de-occupation of our territories, the return of our lands and our people from Russian captivity.”

Russia will end up using tactical nukes to regain the initiative in Ukraine.

It will have to be up to France and/or Britain to respond in kind. Or not.

It just can't be us.

You guys really have lost it.

Like a child and a fairy tale you like this bombing fantasy put out by Russia onto the internet, so by golly, you will absorb it, and embrace it.

Do you notice these Russia lovers cry just like leftists.
They are panicking because Russia itself has been stating its fear of this counter offensive for months.

But i do recall pro putin people gleefully anticipating ukrainians freezing to death over the past winter due to russias bombing of the power grid. But anyway what was the purpose of russia bombing the power grid if not to force ukraine to cry uncle. After all It didnt have any effect on the battlefield...

We still have no idea what their purpose was, or is.

Barring telepathy.

Actually I don’t know anything about it and haven’t heard of it except mentions here and frankly I don’t believe much of anything about anything going on over there

That said, citing Newsweek and Snopes is hilarious but if you think it added to your credibility go for it

No, it isn’t silly, you have to learn how to use sources and collect information and use discernment to reach accurate conclusions.

you do realize you are using snopes as ‘proof’ of something on FR? Did you mean for this to be used on DU too? Your notes should have advised against appeals to authority based on trusted sources such as Newsweek, a twitter random, and snopes on FR.

maybe nudge brigade is tone-deaf, ‘surely everyone recognizes the integrity of snopes, even those neanderthal freepers...’

it shows that the poster in question has no grasp of something as obvious to any freeper as why using snopes as a basis for ANY claim is so odd and laughable as to only be done by an interloper, and that this poster is here for one reason only.

don’t feed the nudgers.

You do realize that you are acting like a child to protect some fantasy you got from Russian blogger sites given the mission to get this story to the very gullible, such as yourself?

I think simple logical deductions can be made to get to the purpose.

“We still have no idea what their purpose was”

But we can be sure that all the objectives were achieved, the power gird was de-nazified, bio-labs were destroyed and Putin stronk 10 thousand times, me US ultra MAGA supporter tells you so.

I did, long ago

Hence my reasoning for what I said

Think what you want, as far as I (and likely most others here) your citation of Snopes as a source removed any credibility you may or may not have had

So you accept the story as authentic and think it really happened.

After finding the claim somewhere on the internet and evaluating whether it made sense in the first place and then looking at the detailed attempts to expose the internet story and its origins and flaws, in your mind, it is totally true.

So you have your opinion.

I never said that but I did say I don’t believe anything coming out of this

Simply mentioned that citing Snopes isn’t a good way to appear credible
