Cheerleading failure

Great Healing Forward I, Napoleon It's Probably Nothing 115 Comments

In war, if you’re not winning, you’re losing. For the Ukraine, there’s no denying that this is pretty bad news. A string of blank checks from Biden is not going to change things that much. Maybe, just maybe, the leftist corporate media and various politicians could start doing their jobs and demand to know what the Ukrainian strategy for victory is and what it will cost. At that point, the West could determine whether all this is remotely worth it. To see where this might be headed, it’s worth looking into the story of the mutiny of French troops in 1917.

As Moscow intensifies its campaign on the eastern front, the tone from Ukrainian officials on the embattled city marks a reversal. Zelenskiy declared on Feb. 2 that Kyiv won’t surrender Bakhmut. Less than three weeks later, he said his forces won’t hold the city “at any cost and with everyone dying.”

  1. The Uke Nazi military has been decimated, losing 10 for every Russian soldier. It’s a meatgrinder.

    As Clay Travis has been saying, Cocaine Volod won’t be happy until every last Uke has died on the battlefield. Cannon fodder. Western media is nonsense. Putin is not “going to invade the rest of Europe!” Mindless drivel, yet, it’s what EU and NATO have been shilling.

    The choice is Ukraine’s, but it has passed. Meat grinder. Scorched earth, by slow, deliberate and over powering means.

    1. This is totally false. The Russians generally send 8 to 10 person suicide squads. They’ve lost tens of thousands of soldiers around Bakhmut to only gain a few KM since summer. This is the only spot on the front that they have gained land since summer.

      Russia winning Bakhmut is a pyrrhic victory.

      If you want, I can send you pictures of mountains of dead orcs. Go read up on Progozhins and Girkins latest comments. It’s clear the offensive potential of Russia is nearly spent.

      Then Ukraine will do an actual organized offensive against Russia and gain huge tracks of land at minimal cost. Russia hasn’t done that since the very beginning of the war.

      1. “Will gain huge tracks (lol) of land”. Allan, will they invading Russia, or regaining huge tracts of land that Russia had previously not gained? Go get another booster.

        1. Getting their land back while absolutely wrecking Russia. Thousands of vehicles destroyed. Meanwhile Ukraine now has more tanks than what they started with.

      3. Now we know that Bakhmut has fallen that Ukraine’s trolls are talking about a “pyrrhic victory.” It was more like a pyrrhic loss, which is ten times as bad, for the Ukraine, but this won’t be settled here on SDA, will it, so go ahead and believe the crap they are telling you.

        1. Bakhmut has not fallen. Russia has been assaulting it since the summer last year. Do you not understand how attrition warfare works?

          1. “Do you not understand how attrition warfare works?”

            (oh, WOW…)

            Yes, Allan…we actually do understand how ‘attrition’ warfare works. We understand the the larger country with 3 times the population, 11 times the GDP and 28 times the landmass *will be the winner*. We have told you that right from the start, but you just seem unable to comprehend this simple fact for some reason.

          3. “Oh you mean like Vietnam and Afghanistan twice?”

            No, I mean like conflicts waged by nations where you *don’t* have to worry about politicians caving to public opinion and snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Try to keep up.

          4. Oh you mean like the Russian empire during WW1 and the USSR during the 80s in Afghanistan?

            Nothing to worry about.

      4. Unless “you” can verify any videos or photos. This info is worthless.
        Neither side will tell the truth, it’s how WAR really works.

        1. So I take it you have no idea of the tools available? Also, aome of these videos are verified by both sides. Usually it’s a massacre of Russian troops and the Russians are livid. It happens over and over and over again.

    2. Dumping easily refuted lies on the internet isn’t going to do much to advance your viewpoints.

        1. If you want to refute that, you’ll have to dismiss dozens of large-scale, controlled scientific studies.

          And no, someone with a blog and an attitude doesn’t really cut it.

    3. The kill ratio I’ve seen is 8.5:1 Ukrainians to Russians. The Russians had retreated to well-defensible positions and have had a significant artillary advantage, with 75% of kills and casualties of Ukrainians (and Poles and others) coming from artillary. A mercenary fighting for the Ukrainians on the front reports the average duration expectancy of new recruits on the front is four hours.

      The Russians have artillary control over the evacuation routes from Bakhmut have almost surrounded the city. There are going to even heavier Ukrainian casualties with supply lines cut off.

      1. If they were losing that many soldiers they would’ve retreated from Bakhmut long ago.

        You live in a fantasy. I have plenty of videos and images of Russians on idiotic suicide attacks. Look up the Vulhedar massacre for one.

          1. Videos are only one piece of the puzzle. Wagner themselves said this is what they do. Groups of 8-10 soldiers at a time dig in close to the enemy position. The mark a tree or something with a rag.

            They die, the next group comes in and moves the rag to however close they get. Rinse. Repeat.

            They’re PROUD of this. Just like their training.. They’re shown videos of executions. Then they’re shown live executions. 1% of Wagner recruits die in training due to executions.

            Why do you think Russia has cut them off from prison recruiting?

        1. KM, between you and Allan, the two of you are doing a rather good job of sorting out the Putin sympathizers polluting this place.

          1. “KM, between you and Allan, the two of you are doing a rather good job of sorting out the Putin sympathizers polluting this place.”

            So all realists are now Putin sympathizers?

            Good of you to expose your own similarity to the global warming hysterics, the Pfizer collaborators and the LGBTQ2+ nutjobs.

    4. “over powering”… Ruϟϟischescweinazis can’t spell long words, can’t they? Also, if hypothetical loss of Bakhmut is a defeat for Ukraine, what was the loss of Kherson for Russia?

      1. This kind jujitsu propaganda is played out.

        Canada sides with nazis in Ukraine, and de-banks its own citizens after sending some agent who could not be identified for “national security reasons” to parade a nazi flag in front of cameras to accuse the Truckers of being nazis.

        Canada’s deputy prime minister flatly denies that her nazi grandfather was a nazi. People get sick of the lies.

        1. That sounded like a response from an improperly configured chatbot (not a single word related to the original post).

  2. Unfortunately…our politicians deem winning by land occupation statistics and not anything else that has won this conflict with Russia(Scorched Earth Policies)…same politicians as Afghanistan…and you know how that ended.

  3. The question no one dares ask is a simple one:

    What are the odds that “the good guys” in a conflict:

    1- wear NAZI regalia and tatoos;
    2 – are enthusiastically supported by George Soros, Hillary Clinton, Trudeau, Biden, and thousands of others ranging from European political leaders to spokepeople for leftist anti-war organizations;
    3 – represent a government violently put in place with funding and support from Obama and Angela Merkel?

    1. You don’t have to be a fan of Ukraine to support them in this war. Russia is clearly the imperialistic aggressor, and a far greater risk to NATO countries than Ukraine (which is no threat whatsoever).

      No matter how this war turns out, by the end of it Russia’s land forces will be thoroughly depleted, and Russia will be reduced to a 2nd-tier power at best, possibly never to rise again. That’s a good thing.

      1. No, Russia is NOT the imperialistic aggressor. The only country on earth that fits that description is the USA. NATO broke many promises to Russia. NATO supported the bombing of the eastern areas of Ukraine since 2014. NATO failed to uphold agreements previously made with Russia. NATO, the lapdog of the USA, provoked this war and did so deliberately and Russia entered her territory only after numerous, clear warnings. Russia isn’t going anywhere. As for the US? It’s going to a dark place very quickly. NATO will have as much success in Ukraine as the US did in Afghanistan.

        1. There were no promises to Russia

          “8 year genocide” is a propaganda myth

          Russia is the one that failed to uphold agreements: UN charter, Budapest Memorandum, Friendship agreement, NATO Russia founding act, Belovezha accords.

          Funny how you say things but choose not to actually cite them. My guess is you haven’t read them. You just watched some qtard YouTube videos and decided their opinions sounded good.

          3. “There were no promises to Russia”

            Correct, the Ukrainians and the US had their fingers crossed the whole time.

          5. Gorbachev himself:

            “The topic of ‘NATO expansion’ was not discussed at all, and it wasn’t brought up in those years. … Another issue we brought up was discussed: making sure that NATO’s military structures would not advance and that additional armed forces would not be deployed on the territory of the then-GDR after German reunification. Baker’s statement was made in that context… Everything that could have been and needed to be done to solidify that political obligation was done. And fulfilled.”

            Bakers comments were regarding east Germany. The USSR was still intact at that point. Russia isn’t the USSR.

            Then there’s page 6 of the NATO-Russia Founding Act which absolutely destroys your argument because both parties agree that sovereign states have a right to join alliances.

            What Founding Act you say? The one where Russia took steps to join NATO.

        2. No, Russia did not invade “only after numerous, clear warnings”; they did that after numerous denials of any intention to do so. Even on the day preceding the invasion they blatantly lied about not wanting to invade Ukraine. At that time Pootin’s speech about the “Special Military Operation” was already recorded. You’re either a loony or a paid poster.

          1. If you don’t know about the numerous warnings from the Russian government between 2014-2022, then you are not a worthy participant in this discussion.

          2. Of course I don’t, because there weren’t any. They never said “we will invade, unless…” AND they said “we have no intention to invade” many times.

            Worthiness isn’t for you to judge, sorry.

        3. When Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014 and 2022 in order to annex territory, that’s imperialistic aggression.

          “Russia isn’t going anywhere.”

          It’s going down the toilet. There’s more than a note of desperation on Russia’s state media these days, which is usually arrogant and bombastic. Even if Russia ultimately wins this war, it’ll come at a massive cost which will take many years or even decades to recover from.

    2. What you said should be shouted from the rooftops. Why are all the bad actors so willing to break the bank to support Ukraine? As with all American wars, this has ZERO to do with defending democracy and freedom.

      1. The cost of supporting Ukraine is extraoridinarily low compared to how much money has been spent by NATO countries on their militaries through the years, most of it to deter the Soviet Union and Russia. Ukraine is doing NATO’s work for it at cut-rate prices.

      2. Paulette
        When a euroweeny big wig says , twice, that the EU has been at war with Russia since 2014, these fools in here need to learn to believe him. There is a mental disconnect with reality in here , by the Russia bad crowd.
        I know a few Ukes, and they are great people, one is even part of my extended family, but the Nazis Uke Gubbermint is the problem almost as much as the USA/CIA/WEF/SORASS!

    3. Nailed it. When people like those are pushing a war, that’s all I need to know that’s it’s wrong, and the side they’re pushing is nothing I want to support.

      And of course, when every single party in parliament is also in favour of war- when the likes of Trudeau, Singh, and Poilievre are likewise pushing for war- that, too, is a sign that we need to stay the hell out of yet another European self-inflicted mess.

      1. Pushing for war? Are you ****ing braindead?

        Are the 140+ countries that voted at the UNGA for Russia to GTFO of Ukraine “in favor of war”?

        You would’ve enabled Hitler in the late 1930s. Sudetenland.

        1. No, he would have been that guy who refused to perform the nazi salute when everybody around him was doing it to get along.

          We are the baddies in this conflict.

        2. You would’ve enabled Hitler in the late 1930s. Sudetenland.
          *********************
          Stupid comment as usual. Two totally different times.

          1. Short tinpot dictator rises to power under the guise that his country is under constant attack. The economy improves. They grow their armed forces.

            The country attacks a neighbor because “our ethnic people are being slaughtered”. The people buy the propaganda and go with it.

            Ukraine? Nope. Germany 1938.

            Where it differs is the European reaction. In the 30s they allowed Germany to take Sudetenland. “He will be content and there will be peace”. This only convinced Hitler that Germany was invincible.

  4. I’m guessing that almost nobody here is actually paying close attention to the war. Russia only ever wins ground by fighting “on the forehead” as Girkin puts it. They’re losing hundreds of soldiers for mere meters of ground only to lose that same land quickly in a Ukraine maneuver at minimal cost to thr latter. The Ukrainians are dug in deep with multiple layers of defense. Not since last March has Russia been able to overwhelm defenses anywhere on the front.

    There’s plenty of video of Russia sending wave after wave of soldiers across the same open ground only to be slaughtered. There’s some areas where Russian deaths exceed 10:1 compared to Ukrainian deaths. It’s classic attrition warfare. Give up ground to buy time and attrit the enemy.

    The reason Ukraine wants to keep Bakhmut is twofold. First, they know Russia wants to take Bakhmut so this is an ideal location to attrit them. Second, the city is already nearly destroyed. If Russia takes it, then they will just destroy the next city.

    1. Well, I guess we will see. Please bookmark this comment and check back in about six months.

      In the meantime:

      Who has their industrial heartland occupied by the enemy, Russia or Ukraine?

      Who has their ports blockaded, Russia or Ukraine?

      Who has their capital regularly bombed by the enemy, Russia or Ukraine?

      1. How about we go back to Feb and March of last year to all the replies to me saying that it isn’t going so good for Russia? I will do that some time.

      2. 1) Ukraine’s industrial heartland, the Donbas region, was home to – not “occupied by” – ethnic Russians. Kiev could have avoided the loss of both the Crimea and her Eastern provinces by accommodating the autonomy aspirations of the ethnic Russians, and by recognizing Russia’s strategic interests against the Western globalists.
        2) Why wouldn’t Russia retaliate against the economic war (Nordstream ?) being waged against her?
        3) The war zone is Ukraine, not Russia. The intent, when Russia invaded, was to turf the corrupt globalists out and give the country back to its people. The point of waging any war is to dispirit or destroy your opponents in order that your purpose is gained, and Kiev is the command centre for both the globalist invaders and Ukrainian armed forces. Of course Russia would attack their enemies’ headquarters.

    2. Can you post one link to a video that shows “Russia sending wave after wave of soldiers across the same open ground only to be slaughtered”?

      3. There’s a few more I linked but got caught in the spam filter.

        Wagner also admits to suicide waves. 8-10 soldiers on foot. Wave after wave. They dig in close to the Ukrainian position and mark something with a white rag indicating how far they got.

        That combined with war crimes such as dressing up as Ukrainian troops – that they are also proud of – are the reasons why Soledar fell.

        1. Your links are to Ukr war videos that are not “wave after wave”. You repeat a Western MSM propaganda lie over and over.

          1. Wagner themselves admit to this tactic. It’s about all they have. Now that they’re cut off from recruiting prisoners I’d expect a major stall.

            There’s plenty of videos of Russian soldiers running across open fields with bodies everywhere. They usually get picked off by drones or shells.

  6. Winning? The Ukraine has won back close to half the ground Russia initially captured. The Ukrainians are toying with the Russians at Bakhmut. They’ve got to fight the Russians somewhere. Russia loves doing suicide attacks on open ground at Bakhmut. In what world would the Ukraine want that to end?

  7. “demand to know what the Ukrainian strategy for victory is”

    We know what the conditions for victory will be, expelling the imperialistic invader from Ukrainian lands. Permanently.

    The strategy to get there is something else. Dennis seems naive to think that Ukraine will share their strategy to outsiders. They will not. What they will share is specific Intel. That’s what they have done to get weapons systems and what they will continue to do.

    The defence of Kyiv was an absolute masterclass in asymmetric and guerilla warfare. Ukraine was able to take advantage of many Russian oversights and expel an enemy using only a fraction of Russias forces. Ukraine gained hundreds of pieces of equipment while doing so.

    The Kharkiv counter offensive was incredible maneuver warfare. They destroyed entire BTGs and gained a ton of land and equipment (LOTS of ammo) at minimal cost.

    The Kherson operation was perfect attrition warfare. They made Russias position in Kherson untenable so they were forced to retreat at minimal cost to Ukraine.

    Last summer in the Donbas region Russia was absolutely hammering Ukrainian positions. then HIMARS arrived. Using only 20 of these units they were able to destroy dozens of ammo depots. To this day, Russia has yet to offer any proof that a single HIMARS unit has been damaged. Ukraine was able to attrit one of the largest artillery forces the world has ever seen. That is when Ukraine gained the initiative.

    So n, Ukraine doesn’t owe anyone anything regarding “strategy”. They have it mastered.

    1. I forgot one, snake island was attrition warfare. It also allowed the port of Odesa to be opened.

  8. Very telling that there wasn’t a single dedicated post in this blog when Ukraine retook Kherson (a regional centre), but when Russia capturing Bakhmut (a much smaller city) because a possibility, there’s a dedicated post immediately. So who’s doing the cheerleading here and for whom?

    1. Bakhmut has been fortified by the US and NATO for eight years in anticipation of the NATO instigation of this war. Ukraine has poured men and materiel into Bakhmut far out of proportion to its actual strategic value.

      Likely by fall, the Russians will control the whole Donbas, and if Ukraine goes into Transnistria, they will declare war, and likely take the whole of Ukraine, which they will then cede the western half to be Poland’s headache, while keeping Odessa.

      1. “Bakhmut has been fortified by the US and NATO for eight years in anticipation of the NATO instigation of this war”
        LOL, are you “BDSM the inverted reality” posting under a different name? Also if NATO new 8 years in advance that Russia would invade, you’ve got to take your hat off to the intelligence of the NATO countries.

      2. Russia has lost 55% of the land they initially took. The only gains they’ve had are a few KM along the front in the east at very high cost.

    1. Ruϟϟischescweinazi fans are triggered by something they can pass off as a victory after a string of humiliating defeats.

  11. Remarkable that the same ruling elite that fed/Feeds you (to name but a few)…
    Russia Collusion Fraud
    Hillary Secret Server
    Hunters Laptop Fraud
    Weiner Laptop Fraud
    Muellergate Fraud
    Covid/Vax Fraud
    Election Fraud
    Climate Fraud
    Open Borders Fraud

    …feeds you Ukraine good/Russia bad and people can’t be bothered to consider that the same group who lie about everything, are also lying about this.

    The ruling class has decided that Russia must not win in Ukraine – but the reasons for this are not the reasons they feed you through their media arm. But so many simply parrot them here.

    1. If the ruling class had decided Hitler could not win in Czechoslovakia in 1938 then World War 2 wouldn’t have happened.

      1. If “the ruling class” hadn’t made intolerable demands of Germany following WWI, Hitler wouldn’t have happened. By late 1938 Germany couldn’t be stopped, not that by then the ruling class wasn’t cheering Hitler on for their greater fun and profit.

    2. We are the bad guys, and the Russians are the good guys.

      Most people don’t realize this because we are the most heavily propagandized and brainwashed people since the end of the Third Reich. We go from failed narrative to failed narrative to failed narrative without a hiccup and having not just no long-term memory, but no short-term memory either! Zero knowledge of world history and geopolitics.

      Don’t look back – ever! Just keep looking forward. To WWIII.

      The USA + Western World Hegemony comes to an end when Ukraine loses. Russia can’t afford to lose because for them this is existential. It will become existential for us as well if we don’t back down.

      And China can’t afford for Russia to lose either. So we get to go against them too, if we’re up for it.

  13. The ukes have their industrial heartland occupied by russians. Their sea ports are cut off and the breadbasket of the country is no longer theirs.

    If they cannot regain this region and somehow the war ends the ukes are destined to a life of abject poverty.

    1. ab
      Sadly you are correct.
      And then there is the X KGB clown who told the EU’rs that Putin no longer has viable nukes.
      Is that a CIA set up , to try and take the Nuke issue off the table, so the west can keep pushing and get less pushback from their constituents????

  14. ” he said his forces won’t hold the city “at any cost and with everyone dying.””

    Hey, look: COMMON SENSE from the Ukrainians. Who knew they were capable of such maturity and good judgement?

    (if only their supporters here would demonstrate the same, we could end this thing without further pointless bloodshed…)

  15. This is one war that will end badly for the west. Not only are we making even more enemies, but we fail to understand the consequences of waging a proxy war with Russia. A war that began with the overthrow of a legally elected Ukrainian government back in 2014 by the US and her western allies.

    World War II pales in comparison to what is coming over the horizon.

    1. More enemies? Have you not been paying attention at all?

      140+ countries voted recently for Russia to GTFO of Ukraine. A handful against. The usual scumbags, North Korea, Iran, Syria.

  16. Call me when the “war” is over. That is unless you idiots manage to get us nuked with your stupidity. Then you cannot and will not call me. Really guys, it truly will be all over, now get out there with your boots and kick ass for the Ukraine. Morons.

  17. The worse part. Even if Ukraine wins (what ever that might be) Or next big mess could be China. Right now the USA is running low on war supplies. You can’t turn out new tanks on jets by just snapping ones fingers.
    I won’t even get into the mess Biden has done to our armed forces.

    1. The only thing that is low is artillery shells. The vast majority of weapons systems haven’t been touched.

  18. Radio free Europe 2/28/23

    Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has said that the situation around the besieged city of Bakhmut is becoming “more and more complicated.” As Russia concentrates its efforts on the industrial city, Ukrainian artillery units are pushing back against waves of assaults by Russians

  20. Sounds like all the keyboard warriors here are rooting for or against their favourite NFL team during the Superbowl.

    Anyway if your not pushing for peace and an end to this stupid war regardless of your personal bigotry you are a f*cking idiot who knows nothing of war, history, nor the historical context here. You are also brain-dead enough to not grasp the reality of this war escalating and the fact that it WILL negatively affect your life along with everyone you know and care about in due time. So keep rooting for the team and try to remember your stupidity the day your life becomes a fail.

    3. “Anyway if your not pushing for peace and an end to this stupid war regardless of your personal bigotry you are a f*cking idiot who knows nothing of war, history, nor the historical context here.”

      Well said. More and more of us here seem to be coming to the same conclusion.

      “I agree, get Russia out of Ukraine and it all ends.

      @Allan S – thanks for proving my point.”

      The saddest thing is that he actually thinks that was a clever retort.

  21. The 5 stages of grief among Russia supporters:

    Denial – Most qtards are here with sheep Russians. You will not find any remotely credible Russians in this stage.

    Anger – A bunch of Russian propagandists are here. Solovyov for example. Many average Russians are here. Who they are angry against varies. NATO, imaginary nazis, Russian MoD for example.

    Bargaining – You see some credible Russians and some propagandists here. They’re looking for a possible exit that doesn’t hurt Russia. Mostly it seems that Russians with connections to the front lines are here.

    Depression – Some understand this is an unwinnable situation for Russia. They’re isolated, the Russian MoD needs massive reform, and the political climate isn’t good. Igor Girkin is here. This is a dangerous place to be.

    Acceptance – You won’t hear of any Russians in the final stage because they’ve either fallen out of a window, or jailed for “discrediting the armed forces of Ukraine”

    It’s actually quote amusing that many of the Russians that created this situation in the first place are further along than the qtards.

    1. Did you get that from the CBC or MSNBC? 100% the girls at The View agree with you, you should ask for a spot on their show.

      What the WEF Tudites seem to not understand is this is not “winnable” by anyone, except the arms industries and the political puppets that get rich from it. NOT you, sorry to inform. You or your children or (fill in the blank) will be fortunate to not get drafted to fight on the front lines if it continues to escalate, ie China. Lucky in fact that Russia doesn’t start launching small tactical nukes into Ukraine if it truly felt that it was losing at some point in the future.

      If you don’t believe that is possible, then you truly know nothing.

  22. Some basic facts are being ignored by cheering fans and downplayed by MSM cuz they don’t fit the narrative.
    Mercouris takes a look back from this vantage point on the 1 yr anniversary of the war. I can’t take his hour long daily dissections,
    however first 15 minutes (on 1.5 x speed) of the video does a good job connecting the dots and a clear picture emerges of what transpired in the lead up and opening months of the war. Bottom line: Russia wasn’t ready for the war and hoped to get out of the war as late as end March 2022 hoping for a negotiated settlement. Others wanted war. Well Russia is still standing and now they are talking a negotiated settlement.

    1. They’ve been planning this for a while, what they expected was a very short war.

      A year in and we still don’t know what Russia wants.

      1. Which is it Allan? We know Russia’s objectives going into the war or we don’t still to this day. But the “short war story” makes for a nice kid’s story about bravery of Ukies and incompetence of Orks. The Russians sent in ~15% of their available fighting forces. They were outnumbered 3 to 1 by a 350,000 Ukie army who had 8 years to arm up and dig in & were ready to launch their offensive to win back the eastern territories and crimea. Playing offense, the Russians needed to send in 1 million troops. Yet the Russians were able to move the contact line further west. In places the Ukies succeeded in moving the line back but instead of winning the territories back. they have been annexed outright by Russia. What is left of that 350,000 man Ukie army today?

  23. The maps tell the truth of who’s winning right now. The rest of the commentary you can ignore. My prediction: Bahkmut falls before Easter.

    1. After being assaulted for 10 months straight. Then Ukraine switches from attrition to maneuver warfare and gains back another huge chunk of their land at minimal cost.

      1. What land did Ukraine gain in the last 2 months? You said they switched to maneuver warfare after 10 months. Given the war has gone on 12 months now that would be 2 months ago.

        Anyway they’re not doing maneuver warfare now. Your comment makes no sense. Or are you saying they will switch to maneuver warfare in the future?

        1. I was referencing Bakhmut. There’s already Ukrainian shaping operations taking place.

      2. A view from Finland on the Russia-Ukraine war: https://svenska.yle.fi/a/7-10029576
        “Finländsk officer kritiserar Ukrainas armé: Den duger inte till anfall och striderna slutar med en smärtsam överraskning – “Ryssland förlorar inte det här kriget””
        “Finnish officer criticizes the Ukraine army: It does not know how to attack, and the fighting will end with a painful surprise – “Russia will not lose this war””

        (My hope is that all parties soon realize that all parties are losers, and thus agree to an immediate ceasefire and then negotiate a peace agreement.)

  24. So was Zelensky lying before, or is he lying now? Either way, he is lying almost constantly, just like Justin and Joe. Birds of a feather…

    1. “Donbas has been bombed for 8 years by Ukraine”

      “Ukraine has bioweapons labs funded by the USA”

      ” Zelensky is a drug addict”

      “The US broke its promise not to expand NATO east”

      “2014 was a CIA coup”

      “The people.in the east are ethnic Russians and want to be with Russia”

      “The Russian economy is fine”

      “Ukraine is run by Nazis”
