Seymour Hersh Claims Ukraine ‘War Effort’ Is ‘All Lies’: ‘The War Is Over – Russia Has Won’
Slay News ^ | September 23rd, 2023 | Frank Bergman

Posted on 09/24/2023 9:26:17 AM PDT by Mariner

Renowned investigative journalist Seymour Hersh has claimed that the U.S.-led war effort in Ukraine is “all lies.”

According to Hersh, the war is already “over” and “Russia has won.”

The veteran reporter alleges that the CIA and MI-6 have been running a “secret disinformation operation” to convince the public to keep funding “the war.”

He says the American and British intelligence agencies have been misleading the public about the disastrous state of the war effort.

“The war is over. Russia has won,” a senior U.S. intel official reportedly told Hersh.

“There is no Ukrainian offensive anymore, but the White House and the American media have to keep the lie going.

“The truth is if the Ukrainian army is ordered to continue the offensive, the army would mutiny.

snip

“Major elements of the Ukrainian army, without declaring so, virtually canceled the offensive,” Hersh reports.

“The two villages that the Ukrainian army recently claimed as captured are so tiny that they could fit between two Burma-Shave signs,” the source said.

“The soldiers aren’t willing to die anymore, but this doesn’t fit the B.S. that is being authored by the Biden White House.”

The sacrifice of the Ukrainians and their nation, with no possible hope of a good outcome, simply to cause as much trouble for Russia as possible, will go down as the most shameful foreign policy event in the history of the United States.

Hersh is one of the very few true investigative journalists left in this country. And he’s plenty old enough to understand that our intel folks specialize in lying. They will lie at news conferences. And they will lie at back-alley meetings.

So who really is winning that war? I don’t know. But I do know we should be completely out of it. It’s Europe’s problem, not ours.

Because Ukraine was able to strike behind Russian lines?

That’s pretty routine stuff.

“taken with a grain of salt” - Agreed, just about everything regarding this war is propaganda.

A simple fact is lies (as in outright lies, half truths and made up news stories) is done to obscure the truth. Those that obstruct the truth are generally evil people. The truth is being withheld from all sides, thus just about everyone involved in the war have something to hide.

Where are the embedded reporters giving first hand accounts and videos of the war? That unto itself tell a lot.

The only obvious truth is Ukes are dying by the thousands and the US tax payers are being bilked by the billions.

I pray this article is fact based and the war is over.

"...will go down as the most shameful foreign policy event in the history of the United States."

Or maybe just "the most shameful foreign policy event in history".

And almost every thinking person knows this. Basic sense tells you there are no more bodies in Ukraine to fight. We have killed most of the able-bodied men who haven’t yet escaped. Most of the women left long ago. Functionally, there really is no Ukraine left outside of some ex-pat cheerleaders.

Perfect timing for Kamala to start her new assignment of rebuilding Ukraine.

Won’t be cheap.

There is no Ukrainian offensive anymore

There never was a Ukrainian offensive. It was just a waste of weapons and money on a corrupt nation where America had and still has no national interest.

Character and principles matter. Who here admires Zelensky? BIden? Any of the Joint Chiefs? Linda Graham? Mitch McConnel? Schumer? McCarthy? All the Democrats in Congress? Those are some of the people who want to lead us into WW III.

I do not follow those that I have zero respect. I’m am able to objectively see the results of what they have done. There is zero success.

I refuse to be fooled twice. The WMD argument for the war in Iraq was the last straw. We lose every forever war because we have clueless, liars leading. The result is we are deeper in debt, less secure and progressively lose our rights. The real enemy of America can be identified by one thing: support for Ukraine. They are just retreads of neocon warmongers of the past. It’s even more hideous when some were the neocon warmongers of the past.
