the same US intelligence that said the Afgan army can hold off the talibans for 6 weeks?
Putin doesn’t have enough military to do traditional Russian strategy.
The usual daily outrageous lies, disinformation and propaganda from the “Daily Mail”? Yup.
Someone’s lying, the Daily Mail or Putin, as Putin says his forces are pretty much positioned and ready to start taking on the cities and that Ukraine’s military has been mostly neutralized.
Ukrainians are fighting bravely, but they are seriously outgunned. If the west gave them planes, they could seriously maul the column north of Kyiv. Armed drones would also be helpful.
We won’t be getting the real truth for at least six months.
If Putin is losing... He’ll make sure everybody else does too. Hopefully somebody within Russia is working on his overthrow. That’s the only way this ends... With him on a slab.
“US Intelligence” is hardly ever right on anything.
Imagine Chinese mercenaries being brought into the fight to test out Chinese weapons systems against European weapons.
Putin won’t stand for being humiliated like this. He’ll mash The Button.
I think they are under estimating the Russian deaths. The Ukes must have killed millions, perhaps billions of Russian soldiers! </sarc>
I don’t believe word 1 of anything the MSM says any more! It could be 120°C at high noon, I could see my shadow, and was frying an egg on the sidewalk. If the MSM told me the sun was out, I would STILL check up in the sky!
If you believe the Daily Junkmail you’ll believe CNN , too .
If this is true…and who knows. But if it is, the weapons they are getting must be really easy to use. With the number of “militia” there, our stuff must be pretty much fire and forget…for dummies (and by that I mean untrained folks.)
That said, there are going to be a lot of weapons left over when this is done. I wonder where they will end up?
If Ukraine does “win” the war, it will be seen as a stupid, needless, pointless “adventure,” and the Garks and the Generals will cashier Putin.
If so, good.
Of course, the Putinistas will claim this is “fake news”...
Article listed same guy twice, yet called him an "other" officer. Fog of war, I guess.
Yeah, let’s believe the mainstream media now.
I don’t believe the article.
Ukrainians can at best bleed Putin until he just takes the black sea coast and Donbas. No way can they do any better
So Baghdad Bob works for US intel now?
If Putin has limited resources and resupply material, encircling a city and just sitting there will get the job done. Nothing reduces resistance like an empty belly. A next move by Putin may be to cut electricity to cities.
I’m sure it is just coincidence that Biden, Kerry, Pelosi and Romney all have children that work/worked for Ukraine Gas Companies.
