  1. Her comments suggest a strong unresonable bias like everyone I have seen do a recap of the evensts on the battle field... No significant advances along the Ukraine fortifide line [the attakc is going at relative lightning speed over a very big area] , Russians not sticking to the cese fire on the steal plant [after several cese fires, with humaintarian coridors I get the impression that no russian troops are watching the plant and farmed that out to local malicias], 10K people burried at this mass grave [digers on the ground show each grave with markers of who was burried in each sight, manitude maybe not even in the hudreds] Second phase of russian operation thoght to be an anexation [my impression is that is soon to tell]

  2. Zaporizhia nuclear power plant, in russian controlled territory is being bombed by russia, just as they bombed the nord stream pipelines.... Biden threatening to bomb then just gave the russians cover to bomb the pipelines.

  3. The russian narrative is that Ukraine has been dug into the donbas by setting up command centers to control local russian ethnic populations as well as setting up ordenence postions in urban areas... Russian narratie is also that they have done their best to preserve civillians and civiallian infrastructure as well as opening up humanitarian coridors so that civillians can leave... Coridors that would be shelled by Ukrainian nationalists...

  5. Granted, after the fact they seem to be able to throw up a relitively accurate map... The have no predictive value at all though.

  6.  @randomdude2832  That is exactly what I be thinking... I also be thinking that there is not a currency that can take over from dollar hegimony in the very near future.

  7. Perhaps he should be more conserned with democratic processes in the EU.... Democracy might break out across europe...

  8.  @maw4734  Interesting.... It was speculated that russian intelligence was operating on the assumption that if russia showed military might, ukrain would surrender.... That offer to surrender was rebuffed and ukraine is claiming victory ever since. In football terms... It is like declaring a game won when the opposing team didn't execute an attempted touchdown on kickoff.... While it may have not been wise to attempt a touchdown on kickoff... The assertion IS that they lost because they didn't achieve that goal. It is innocent ukraine military's personnel that are paying the highest price... The sanctions on europe, planned by the US before russia's invasion of ukraine are also destroying europe. The sanctions against europe in the interests of US military contractors, monopolies including IT, banking. energy and pharma are going to destroy europe... The US is trying to be protectionist against industrial polices that can strengthen europe and make europe an economic rival of US hegemony.

  9. As an american and a mechanical designer, I am proud of the opportunities that the weapons grinder that russia has afforded me. I expect to be hansomly compensated for replacing them.

  10. The main part of the story is the sanctions aginst russia... The main target is keeping the EU in the US sphere of influence and have the EU buy from western cartells everything they need and to refinance everything.... These are tactics that can't win the economic war but can stop the advance that is slowly grinding on the west... The west would have to adopt some of the east's economic weapons, like capitalism, to stop it's decline independent of the east.

  11. I thought it was a good interview... If there were edits they looked legit.

  12.  @johannjohann6523  Much evidence for some of these allegations have been published. Russia had the english PM Truss's personal phone hacked that suggested that the UK was involved in the pipeline destruction... I have not seen others, but russian intelligence will probably present some evidence for each of these allegations.

  13.  @evechurchill424  Sometimes there isn't really another 'side' sometimes there are carefully placed lies that are meant to croud out the truth... More reasonable narratives are biased as well. They are just biased toward the truth. They are doing their best to censor the truth as well.
    1
  14.  @evechurchill424  Actually how profound the west lied about the Ukraine war is breath taking.... I suppose I should have gotten ready for this since the democrats insisted that trump was installed by the russians.... The lies in this case are just as weak.

  15. ABT. Ukraine, he continually said how russia was losing and that they will be beaten back to the pre 2014 border, while showing maps of Ukraine that showed steady progress of russia through areas of Ukraine that had been fortified since 2014.

  16.  @coffeewithbleach6168  I like to think of myself as a russian bot: the kinds of people who never believed that trump was installed by putin...

  17.  @alexb6631  It is a difficult operation for the Russians.... They lost a huge number of men, perhaps 50K and they want to lose as few as they possibly can to the end of the millatary operation.... It should be over in about a month.

  18.  @edwardbernthal160  The Ukrainians arn't going into Kherson... They want to stay away from that caldron... Now a caldron but most of the population went east before hand.

  19.  @edwardbernthal160  I have heard it argued that the civilian population is scared of the Ukraine troops... It is often deadly to be seen as a supporter of russia in Ukraine and many have died.... An example early on is Bucha where, according to military forensics expert Scott Ritter says that all evidence points to that as a Ukraine massacre. Many of the annexed territories have electricity and water... Kyiv and other cities not so much so I am not sure why anyone stayed in northern Kirson... It is also getting cold....

  20. It sounds funny in a way but the whole world is at war.... Many people all over the world will die becaus of foodstuff shortages.... It is fun for the US millatary industies to send wepons but Zeleski says he dosn't need any forign help... I am pretty sure US sending weopons is one of the primary resons for the war.

  21.  @LornaC474  The russians clame to have intersepted an order to shoot on sight anyone surrendering in the plant. My impression is that there are people there that would embarass the Ukraininan operation, and that the order is real and that is was given to save Ukraine from some shame.
    1
  22.  @LornaC474  I am not sure.... These are the reports I have heard... I am not at all good at verifying sources. That leaves me with a group of impressions based on my biases... If the western media says it, to me they have impeached themselves over and over again with the most extreme whacky conspiracy theories that even I could never imagine... But they said it and now I think they are almost always lying.... So I do try and verify things that have given me an impression but I ain't all that. Needless to say, war is not fun and conditions are not the same "White flag means surrender" and "POWs will be treated with respect" and so on don't always apply...

  25.  @shaunlovett1565  I think the right word is 'tip' because I think the russians have a clue.

  28.  @Harrywilkinscornwall  Arguably the 'world community' could be pulling away from russia. That is the world community comprized of the five eyes. The one that the US had stubornly insisted that they are with us and not four russia before the invasion. The 'world community' comprised as well by 11% of the world's population. It is possibel that will be the the new 'western block' in the new cold war agaisnt russia and more importantly china. My understanding of what russia wants is that they want to enforce the minsk agreements signed in '15 and haven't backed down from that 'bright red line' ... The ‘special military operation’ [russia prefers the leagal definition as apposed to 'war'] is the enforcent of that agreement... Or at least that is my understanding. So.... If the war is about the economic clought with the west, where the west was trying hard to get russia to invade to strenthen, mostly to issolate europe AND NOT russia, is lost... Yes then europe is isolated... And EUROPE lost. If the plan was to weaken russia economically.... That would assume that US intelegence can't ballance a ledger at a candy store, whch is probable, then that STUPID plan didn't work.

  29.  @TheInfamousMrFox  The scuttle but says that russia thought that it would be popular in the Ukraine to join russia and institute the minsk agreements and all they had to do was knock on the door.... Putin fired like 150 millatry intelegence officers after those 'battles' If it were the US invading Iraq, Kieve and other western cities would be flattened... Russia has more than enogh assets to do such a thing.

  30. @edgar zarate Yes.... Entirely unacepble.. Still too many russians dead... Was it in russia's interest to invade? Here scott ritter discusses that... youtube[DOT]com/watch?v=zsiXJcKnGO4

  31. @edgar zarate Did russia win the economic war? Would the economic war be as virolent if the invasion hadn't happened? Who wins there? Odviously the west didn't have the capabillity to ballance a ledger in a candy store... US objectives were to liberalise the economies of russia, china, iran, venezuela... Their objective was to make those economies los, to break up their goverments and have their vendors take the rent and natural resources away from those economies... That didn't happen... Sadly Europe lost and willingly lost.

  33.  Андрей Тымко  Germany gets low pressure zones during the winter where there is no wind and no sun.... They have no power then.... So perhaps they could have more energy soverenty but not compleate energy soverenty.

  34.  Андрей Тымко  Scott Ritter is the person that I look to to describe, via informed speculation, what is going on in Ukraine. youtube.com/watch?v=m4SlSILtlpc

  35.  Андрей Тымко  Scott Ritter seems to think that Ukraine is going to mobilize refugees in Poland and other places to train on advanced artillaery sysems in... The US is giving more aid to the Ukraine project than all of Russia's yearly millatary budget... The stated goal of the US is to 'blead russia dry' economically... Russias only real 'first strike' capabillity in a war is to cut off oil and gas to europe... .... Not fun.

  36.  Андрей Тымко  Notable that Zelenski said earlier that he doesn't need anything other than Ukraininans themselves, 'no forigners' to defeat russia... Now the west is sending more than a years budget of Russia millatary to fight russia and it is turning the whole thing upside down. They are arming training Ukrainians in places like poland and firing on the russian millatary from western Ukraine.

  39.  @nvelsen1975  I don't know that they can suffer ten times as many lives lost because the magnitude of lives lost in the millatary of Ukrain is 1/2 million.... Ten times is Five Mega deaths, which gets to look like world war two Jewish and Russian death toll.

  41. I know the Sky guy is an idiot which is nothing new, but did Mirandi have to be so belacose? He usually is more mild manored. In this case when Iran shows a definate advantage he could fall back on his mild demeanor.

  44.  @octaviantimisoreanu5810  Try apeasing the russians by stopping slaugter of russian civillians and stop shelling russian army positions and perhaps they will be so kind as not to advance. That was the russian demands eight years into the conflict before russia invaded.

  45. Russians are cry babies... DPR, LPR and the russians are occupying 2/3 of the donbass region... That was their primary objective. Is it the russians who are crying or is it Sky news that thinks they should crush everything with mortar?

  46. The russans have huge quantities of very good weapons... They also have a tendency to hit their targets, not town squares and community centers with shrapnel hymars. ... Supposedly hymars are being guided by the americans and that is what they are hitting... Harassing populations generally makes radicalizes the into cohesion against the threat and that is exactly what is happening in eastern ukraine...

  47.  @boink800  It seems as if the west has taken over that kind of poetry.... Poetry out of a distopian science fiction novel or movie.... Example: In the US we have a 'minstry of truth' which was formerly headed by 'scary poppins' ... Nina Jankowicz who was part of mutliple teams who insisted that trump was installed by putin for six years... The tanks are only steel cofins for the Ukrainians... The west is in big troube because the mask is about to be lifted.

  48.  @boink800  Here is some more poetry about lying by Nina Jankowitz: former head of Biden's 'minstry of truth' ... They had to walk back her as head because of public outcry but the minstry of truth still exists with no public face... youtube.com/watch?v=lNcEVYq2qUg

  49.  @des_smith7658  This is something that the head of the Minstry of Truth put out... youtube.com/watch?v=lNcEVYq2qUg To be sure, she was part of the team that insisted trump was installed by putin.

  50.  @gregorylouis617  It is not true that Russia is an artillary army more than the US exept in this case they decided not to burn Ukraine to the ground, but if they find consintrations of personel, feuel, armiments and amunion they will send in a rocket or two... Now the Russian millatary is increasiingly killing women on the front lines.
