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

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.

“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.”

Just stop. The ruble was .013/USD before the incursion, its at 0.11 now.

Maybe you need new glasses. The ruble is trading at .0104 today. That is off quite a bit from .013.

There is no need for war correspondents now. Anybody with a cell phone camera can and does post video and pictures of what happened.

And you can watch first person views of the fighting from the GoPro cameras some of the soldiers wear.

Col. Douglas Macgregor, Scott Ritter and Larry Johnson have reached the same conclusion.

That's funny. Kind of like saying the Three Stooges reached the same conclusion.

Conservative icon Seymour Hersh? Are conservatives so broken and defeated they’ll believe any America hating fairy tale Hersh spews? You have any Noam Chomsky for us? Maybe some golden oldie Lyndon Larouche quotes?

Funny how Iran killing 500 Americans in Iraq gets forgotten, too. What do you think Iran will do with the money and weapons they are getting from their allies Obama-Biden and Russia?

Thanks for sharing the latest Russian talking point.

One of the measures of Ukrainian progress is how many people show up on Free Republic making pro Russian posts.

Whenever something bad happens to the Russian military we get to see all kinds of posts saying how Ukraine is losing, its all over now, Russia will win, etc.

There must have been some very important Russian officers in the Russian Black Sea Fleet Headquarters when it got destroyed.

Hi.

As everyone knows this war is killing people, destroying property and consuming massive resources.

May I suggest a 72 hr ceasefire in place?

Maybe this conflagration can stop

Otherwise...

I think Maximus needs a day off too. You should take some time and go have some blinis together. It’s hard work maintaining so many propaganda sites and having to post from so many different identities. It must be exhausting. Of course having your fingers in Zelenskyy’s cash trucks to Zurich must soften the blow.

Russia has won? That would be good news for Putin, if it were true.

"The war is over"?

Great!

Now can we get on and prosecute our own war on our southern border? We have been ignoring that one for years.

Unfortunately, the enemy is now located not on our actual border but throughout our entire country and we are paying them to occupy it.

“Russia is a mental illness.”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I fully agree with what you mean.
I would maybe be a tad more precise, saying it’s the Kremlinists who are the madmen and who are sick. Those who run Russia.

The Russian people though are just victims of their deep-state warmongering politicians. They are used like pawns and cannon-fodder to please the lust for blood the Kremlinists are yearning for. Hundreds of thousands Russians being purged on the killing fields of Ukraine. At home they are sent to rot in prison, are pushed out of windows from the 7th floor, or just poisoned... in case they express the even slightest critic against their Kremlin masters.

The kremlin is composed KGB/FSB fanatics suffering from old Soviet-Union melancholia and nostalgia.
That’s why they are trying to resurrect it all into a new fresh “Neo-Soviet-Union”.

The West must awaken, urgently.

Actually there is a lot of grooming and child abuse going in Russia.

And all this rape culture going on in Russia’s army and prisons is well known all over the planet.

It’s gangraining Russia as a nation.

Russian “commies” actually were first of all SOVIET ideologues.

Today though, while they are not boasting about communism anymore, they remain profoundly entrenched in the Soviet ideology and attitude. That’s why I prefer calling them “Neo-Soviets” instead of “Commies”.

However...it’s interesting to note that only communist nations have expressed their full support for Russia and THAT makes it all look very suspicious to say the least...

Indeed: Belarus, China, Cuba, Nicaragua, North Korea, Venezuela... all these ARE communists... and they are part of Russia’s alliance.

As a bonus, Russia has allied itself with America’s most extreme middle-eastern enemy : the Islamic State of Iran.

So in essence, Russia has become a Globo-Islamo-NeoSoviet-CommieFriendly-Kremloid alliance.

Your silly picture that you keep posting over and over again, do you imagine that it's clever? Do you imagine that you are clever for posting it?

Try to stay up to date. We're having a conversation between adults with critical thinking ability. Maybe you don't belong here if all you can do is regurgitate your silly picture over and over again.

What's you point? Yes, he broke the story of Abu Gharib, a disgusting stain on America. Shameful conduct by those in charge, and those doing the dirty work. You don't have to be a genius to know that stripping soldiers naked, and then having female soldiers lead them around on dog leashes is not acceptable conduct.

I appreciate him bringing it to our attention.

Anything you read about this war should be taken with a grain of salt, both sides have been lying out their arses since before the war began, and will not be changing that anytime soon

Was Mai Lai a fairy tail? Abu Gharib? Nope, those things happened.

Maybe you approve of the US Military falling apart and acting like Nazis. Most Americans do not, and therefore were grateful to the people who brought the wrong-doing to our attention.

But, maybe you think that sort of thing is OK? I mean you *ARE* siding with the Ukrainians, who are very Nazi-adjacent, Nazi-influenced, and Nazi-symboled-up.


Photo taken by United States Army photographer Ronald L. Haeberle on March 16, 1968 in the aftermath of the My Lai massacre showing mostly women and children dead on a road.

Instead you would have us believe who, exactly? The institutional liars at the New York Times and The Atlantic? David Frum, David Brooks (who may have a drinking problem), Bill Kristol and the rest of the Neo Con journalists?

No thanks. I still remember the WMD con-job they pulled off.

You really hate the American military, don’t you? You’re just jealous. Russian inferiority complex on full display.
