U.S. Spooks Can't Keep Their Mouths Shut About Helping Ukraine Kill Russians
PJ Media ^ | 05/08/2022 | Rick Moran

U.S. intelligence agencies are deeply concerned about a steady flow of leaks pointing to extensive assistance by the United States, helping Ukraine score some of its biggest victories of the war.

On Thursday, several news outlets reported on assistance by U.S. intelligence agencies giving the Ukrainian military information on Russian units that have allowed Ukrainians to target and kill many of the Russian generals who have died in the war. Moscow has acknowledged at least 12 general officers were killed — more generals than died in World War II.

Then on Friday, some blabbermouth told the Washington Post that the U.S. gave information to the Ukrainians that allowed them to sink the Moskva — the flagship of the Russian Black Sea fleet. The Biden administration is denying that such assistance was given — at least in every instance. But more worrisome than the deliberate provocation of killing high-ranking Russian general officers is the stupidity that someone is bragging about it.

“It’s stupid, it’s unnecessary. There’s no upside, only downside,” a European official told Politico. “It looks like the Americans are trying to take credit for what the Ukrainians are doing.”

Speculation abounded across the Washington, D.C., natsec and intel communities that the administration was intentionally rubbing salt in the Kremlin’s wound. Turns out none of this is a coordinated leak by President Joe Biden’s team: “Someone is eager to take credit, but it’s not helpful,” a U.S. official told NatSec Daily. Others we spoke to revealed there’s an internal freakout over the stream of stories, though it’s unclear exactly who is feeding reporters the juicy nuggets.

Instead of boasting, a parade of administration officials have denied the direct link between the shared intelligence and targets, saying that U.S. military and intel assets merely tell Kyiv where the Russians are

And remember when Democrats and their corrupt media freaked out (and blamed Trump) with the fake news that Russia was paying bounties to the Taliban for dead Americans.

And we have our own neocon and deep-state warmongers bragging about doing the same, or much worse.

Hypocrites. Pay-back is gonna be a byatch.

Putin wants everyone to keep their hands off Ukraine so their military can crush them. That would be a fair fight.

Sometimes you sense a disaster approaching and have an overwhelming feeling of powerlessness to do anything about it.

I don’t think it is almost. Some powerful people really want war.

Not surprising at all: They’re attempting to start a nuclear war. Population control as directed by the WEF!

The Biden people have been taunting Russia since before this started. And remember the hysteria when the (false) rumor of Russians putting bounties on US troops went around? Now the US is claiming they are directly involved in killing Russian troops.

I see that you are still swallowing Biden's.....

Just remember this:

President Obama: "On all these issues, but particularly missile defense, this, this can be solved but it’s important for him to give me space.

President Medvedev: "Yeah, I understand. I understand your message about space. Space for you…"

President Obama: "This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility."

President Medvedev: "I understand. I will transmit this information to Vladimir, and I stand with you."

Then Obama cancelled missile defense in Europe because "The 90s called and they want their foreign policy back." Russia was not a threat where we needed to put missiles in Europe.

After Obama's re-election, Russia went into Crimea.

Had Russia gone in before 2012, Obama would not have had an easy time cancelling the missile defense system in Europe and it would have made his re-election more difficult.

Only the most gullible fools believe the propoganda coming from Obama's meat puppet.

“U.S. intelligence agencies are deeply concerned about a steady flow of leaks”

Doesn’t say much for alleged intelligence agencies that can’t figure out who in their own organization is leaking.

The Russian people have a long history of privation and scarcity. They fought one of the most brutal campaigns in the history of warfare, and prevailed. A couple of days ago they held the annual WWII Victory Celebration. They can walk around their communities and still see scars and monuments to a war fought in in living memory in their own towns and cities..

The Russian people are not afraid of Joe Biden. Anyone who wants to go toe-to-toe with Russia better think long and hard about it. Russia is a formidable opponent. Russia is not afraid of a people who cry if addressed by the "wrong" [sic] pronoun.

Yup—In this age of 24/7 monitoring of communications it should be trivial to catch a leaker—even more so within these agencies—unless the leaker was smart enough to use carrier pigeons!

We're the closest right now to a nuclear war as we have ever been during my lifetime (53 years).

Don't worry though. I've been reassured by many here that Russian nukes will certainly malfunction and fall on their own cities.

I thought so.

The establishment is pulling out all the stops for war.

Good post.

I keep reminding folks that Russia has a robust and modernized civil defense system for their civilian population.

The US has none—zero—nada...

That tells you what both governments really think of their populations.
