Kyiv by 2125! Lviv by 2225!

There's really no rush, they want to keep the funds rolling indefinitely.

Russia is playing it smart. A war of attrition. Moving up foot by foot.

“Russia is playing it smart. A war of attrition. Moving up foot by foot.”

Just like Afghanistan ...

162 square miles.

At a cost of how many Russian troops and equipment?

That’s pathetic.

This has become a comparative meme now - for example -

“The Secret Service has now reached Russian-military-in-Ukraine levels of incompetence”

Taken at a cost of how many Russian lives, and how much military assets from Russian, and how much of the economy of Russia?

But, eventually, Russia will take Ukraine, but by that time, Putin will be dead and long buried and the members of the current Kremlin will have also been long dead and buried. The great-grandchildren of Putin will be running things.

Like a moth to light, Ukraine is attracted to kill zones until they run out men and equipment, then Russia moves into the void making the contact kill zone.

Russia is focused on the AFU’s destruction before advancement.

Ukraine is training 15-18 brigades while they collaspe on three areas of the front. Gone are the days Ukraine can continue to rotate units, but instead those units remaining fight and die in place. Russia will always prefer to have Ukraine defend every inch resulting in over extended logistics. Russia has short lines of resupply now.

But to make the point for land acquisition of the Ukrainian map, Russia is going to take more land in September and October than in the entire war DUE to the destruction of the AFU.

Ukraine will prove to have nothing but speed bumps for defense and manpower once the 7 Russian manuver groups breakout. Drip, drip to the last Ukrainian drop.. of blood, and treasure. Blackrock be damned.

I thought Putin had 7 different types of cancers, shaky leg twitches, and was probably already dead and replaced by body doubles, according to your favorite liberal-stream media propaganda.

Check Mediazona for the most accurate estimates of losses, they are nowhere near what the LSM is claiming.

They’ve worked in the past. The American civil war proves that.
