  2. After the latest debacle Zelenskyy supervisors told him not to use Challengers and Leopard 2A6s in the offensive. It was too embarrassing. Zelenskyy managed to waste hundreds of tanks (including cutting-edge German Leopard 2A6s) and hundreds of armored vehicles (including Bradley) along with thousands of hapless Ukrainian conscripts (in the first 14 days 9 600 Ukrainian conscripts were slaughtered) on the mine fields, hit by Russian artillery or anti-tank missiles without even getting to the first main line of Russian defense . Adding insult to injury Russians captured Leopard 2A6 and Bradley. Ukrainian army has always been poorly led and marred by political interference and pervasive corruption, but now when it lost almost all experienced soldiers every Zelenskyy operation turns into a wholesale slaughter of Ukrainian conscripts like in Bakhmut . Bakhmut was a slaughter which was entirely Zelenskyy folly as Stalingrad was entirely Hitler's folly. Zelenskyy just for media hype wasted on average 500 troops daily (total tally was at least 51 000 KIA) in Bakhmut meat grinder even when all escape routes came under Russian fire control and this debacle turned into a sheer slaughter of Ukrainian troops.

  3. Meanwhile total Ukrainian losses are approaching staggering 400 000 KIA. The problem is that Ukraine lost almost all trained and experienced soldiers that it had at the beginning of the war. Hapless people that Zelenskyy goons are rounding up in the streets die like flies at an astonishing rate. Ukrainian army still failed even to take Robotyne and still failed to come even close to the first main line of Russian defense after wasting at least 54 000 troops since June 4. Zelenskyy is burning through his last reserves like an elite 82 brigade that was never meant to be slaughtered in this senseless way. Obsessed with deadlines Zelenskyy firmly made up his mind to take Robotyne at all cost by August 24, but even here he failed. The situation is so catastrophic that Zelenskyy even banned highly pro-Ukrainian western media from visiting the frontline. Some Ukrainian soldiers on condition of anonymity were too candid with western reporters. For example, NYT is quoting wounded Ukrainian soldier as saying: “We were shot like on a shooting range.” According to his fellow soldier “his battalion had suffered so many dead and wounded that only 10 men remained at the front line” . WaPo is reporting that yet another Zelenskyy debacle caused bitter recriminations on Capitol Hill: "The bleak outlook, briefed to some Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill, has already prompted a blame game inside closed-door meetings".

  4. Ukraine can win at this point only in TLDR's wet dreams. Macron and Lloyd Austin are panicking. Zelenskyy regime is on its last legs and it will unlikely survive until the end of the year. Well, it's a quote from The Time article. Zelenskyy top advisers say about him: “He deludes himself, ” one of his closest aides tells me in frustration . “We’re out of options. We’re not winning. But try telling him that. It is immovable, verging on the messianic.” One Austrian artist was in a similar state in 1945. Zelenskyy "achievements" to date: 500,000 Ukrainians are dead, 3x that mangled and crippled for life, half of Ukraine's population is living as refugees scattered all over Europe and Russia right now, they're drafting women because they've run out of men to kidnap off the streets, gyms and public transport. NYT wrote about these mass kidnappings that were happening only in Zelenskyy Ukraine and Hitler's Germany in 1945 in an article ‘People Snatchers’.
    11
  5. TLDR keeps reporting from the parallel universe. Meanwhile the quality of Ukrainian army isn't on the level anymore after previous catastrophic losses. This offensive is doomed. Zelenskyy is running out of cannon fodder. WSJ is describing Zelenskyy mobilization in this way: "Mr. Zelensky in January introduced even harsher punishment for desertion and disobedience. A disabled person was drafted in western Ukraine and pronounced fit for service despite having no hands. Another died on the front lines within a month of mobilization after 10 days of training, according to his relatives." Zelenskyy is officially catching and forced conscripting even disabled (not only army recruiters, but also police, border police, secret police and even municipal authorities are officially hunting for hapless cannon fodder leaving desperate people no chance to escape Zelenskyy goons). When such people are in the trenches let alone forced to go on the offensive, it's a recipe for disaster.

  6. It can't because of the domino effect. In reality the front is about to collapse. Ukraine already lost most trained and motivated soldiers along with almost all hardware it had before the war plus hundreds of tanks and IFVs it got from Eastern Europe. Zelenskyy strategy is reduced to rounding up civilians often at gunpoint and throwing them into a meat grinder in a futile attempt to stabilize the front. It's now abundantly clear that Zelenskyy lied about a real Ukrainian mobilization potential. Even these drastic measures clearly cannot save him. Ukraine got dozens of polish MiG 29s as "spare parts", dozens of SU 25s from other countries in Eastern Europe, dozens of choppers . Almost everything was lost. It's just a waste of money. The war is lost by Ukraine. This tank delivery announcement is just a transparent attempt to deflect accusations in an inevitable future blame game.

  7. Ukraine didn't retake Klischiivka. It's fake news from desperate TLDR. Meanwhile only yesterday and only near a small village of Rabotino Zelenskyy wasted 22 tanks, 12 IFVs and hundreds of hapless Ukrainian conscripts, 18 conscripts were lucky enough to surrender. In these suicidal attacks since June 4 Zelenskyy managed to waste hundreds of tanks (including cutting-edge German Leopard 2A6s) and hundreds of armored vehicles (including Bradley) along with tens of thousands (at least 32 000 KIA) of hapless Ukrainian conscripts on the mine fields, hit by Russian artillery or anti-tank missiles without even getting to the first main line of Russian defense. Adding insult to injury Russians captured Leopard 2A6 and Bradley . Ukrainian army has always been poorly led and marred by political interference and pervasive corruption, but now when it lost almost all experienced soldiers every Zelenskyy operation turns into a wholesale slaughter of Ukrainian conscripts like in Bakhmut. Bakhmut was a slaughter which was entirely Zelenskyy folly as Stalingrad was entirely Hitler's folly. Zelenskyy just for media hype wasted on average 500 troops daily (total tally was at least 51 000 KIA) in Bakhmut meat grinder even when all escape routes came under Russian fire control and this debacle turned into a sheer slaughter of Ukrainian troops. But obsessed with Bakhmut Zelenskyy didn't stop even at that. Since May 20 when Russians took Bakhmut General Syrsky (Zelenskyy minion) launched wave after wave of suicidal counterattacks failing to retake a single village near Bakhmut while wasting thousands upon thousands of hapless Ukrainian conscripts.

  8. The result of this great counteroffensive is truly astounding. Ukraine lost only in this misadventure 1200 soldiers (that's only killed, the number of wounded is unknown), 48 tanks, 46 IFV, 37 armored trucks, two jets, two helicopters (all hardware is courtesy of Biden administration and Fed's money printing -- inflation be damned) with exactly zero territorial gains. Zelenskyy regime is shelling a nuclear plant under Russian control. Such reckless war crimes and "counteroffensives" can be committed only out of utter desperation. It reminds Hitler's Nero plan in 1945. I hope eventually Zelenskyy, Biden and their henchmen will be brought to justice or justice will be brought to them .

  9. Serbia has a wonderful opportunity not to tie itself with a sinking EU. ship.

  10. Meanwhile in real life Ukraine had 1990 tanks before the war. Almost all of them were lost along with hundreds of polish tanks that were sent there. To send western tanks there is a clear sign of desperation. If it were even a bit rational, these tanks would be in Ukraine long ago. It's virtually impossible to repair and properly maintain them in Ukraine I remember fiery demise of Leopards 2 in Syria. Turkish army was absolutely furious. They thought that they had an invincible tank, but it proved to be just a barbecue set for the crew. You should take into account that these tanks were operated by professional Turkish crews in this case they will be operated by a bunch of Ukrainian swineherds. Challenger 2 is a junk in comparison with Leopard 2. Germans are so reluctant to send them there because it will kill their reputation for good. Israeli's Merkavas which are even better than Leopards 2 and had professional Israeli crews in them were decimated in Lebanon by old RPG-29. The war is lost by Ukraine. The sooner it signs unconditional surrender the better.

  13. This pointless terrorist attack on two tiny hamlets (Zelenskyy lost 70 troops KIA and several US made armored vehicles for nothing and these tiny hamlets are under Russian control right now) is a lame attempt to divert attention from Bakhmut debacle and slaughter of Ukrainian troops. Bakhmut is a slaughter which is entirely Zelenskyy folly as Stalingrad was entirely Hitler's folly . Zelenskyy just for media hype wasted on average 500+ troops daily (total tally is at least 51 000 KIA) in Bakhmut meat grinder even when all escape routes came under Russian fire control and this debacle turned into a sheer slaughter of Ukrainian troops. Zelenskyy did it while having to catch in the streets even disabled (he is officially forced conscripting disabled people) to try to fill the dwindling ranks of Ukrainian army . WSJ is describing Zelenskyy mobilization in this way: "Mr. Zelensky in January introduced even harsher punishment for desertion and disobedience. A disabled person was drafted in western Ukraine and pronounced fit for service despite having no hands . Another died on the front lines within a month of mobilization after 10 days of training, according to his relatives."

  14. More than 12 hundred polish soldiers were killed in Ukraine and hundreds more wounded. The government should stop lying about it and start helping the families.

  15. Ukraine already lost most trained and motivated soldiers along with almost all hardware it had before the war plus hundreds of tanks and IFVs it got from Eastern Europe (to understand the scale of losses it had 1 990 tanks, 1 212 IFVs, 1 112 heavy artillery systems, 354 multiple rocket launchers) . Its army is a shadow of its former self at the beginning of the war. Zelenskyy is catching and forced conscripting mostly people with zero motivation to die for him, who never served in the army, often disabled. When such people are in the trenches, it means that the front can collapse at any moment .

  16. All escape routes from Bakhmut are under Russian fire control . Zelenskyy successfully created another slaughterhouse for Ukrainian troops. In reality Zelenskyy is the gift that keeps giving for the Russians. Ukraine already lost most trained and motivated soldiers along with almost all hardware it had before the war plus hundreds of tanks and IFVs it got from Eastern Europe (to understand the scale of losses it had 1 990 tanks, 1 212 IFVs, 1 112 heavy artillery systems, 354 multiple rocket launchers) . Its army is a shadow of its former self at the beginning of the war. Mass summary executions for attempted surrender or unauthorized retreat just cause further demoralization and despair. Zelenskyy strategy is reduced to rounding up civilians often at gunpoint and throwing them into a meat grinder. Bakhmut is just the last instance of this insane tactic. Russians have 1:6 advantage in artillery according to WaPo of all places. 85% of Ukrainian soldiers are killed even without seeing an enemy. WSJ is quoting Ukrainian commander in Bakhmut as saying: “So far body count "exchange rate” is strongly in favor of the Russians. If we carry on like this, we will rapidly burn through all our conscription resources.”

  17. The war is lost by Ukraine.

Its army is a shadow of its former self at the beginning of the war. Zelenskyy is catching and forced conscripting mostly people with zero motivation to die for him, who never served in the army, often disabled. Germans said that they would give their tanks only after US gave its tanks. Nobody wants to demolish reputation of its tanks for nothing. To send western tanks there is a clear sign of desperation. If it were even a bit rational, these tanks would be in Ukraine long ago. It's virtually impossible to repair and properly maintain them in Ukraine I remember fiery demise of Leopards 2 in Syria.

  18. In reality Zelenskyy is using cannon fodder against overwhelming Russian artillery, but to no avail. According to WaPo of all places Russians have 1:6 advantage in artillery (you can imagine their real advantage). 85% of Ukrainian soldiers are killed even without seeing an enemy. All escape routes from Bakhmut and Avdeevka are under Russian fire control. Zelenskyy again successfully created these slaughterhouses for Ukrainian troops. He is a real butcher for Ukrainian troops. Ukraine already lost most trained and motivated soldiers along with almost all hardware it had before the war plus hundreds of tanks and IFVs it got from Eastern Europe (to understand the scale of losses it had 1 990 tanks, 1 212 IFVs, 1 112 heavy artillery systems, 354 multiple rocket launchers). Its army is a shadow of its former self at the beginning of the war. Mass summary executions for attempted surrender or unauthorized retreat and catching even disabled people in the streets (Zelenskyy officially forced conscripts even disabled) just cause further demoralization and despair. The war is lost by Ukraine and Zelensky wants to flee to his family in London ASAP. It doesn't matter for him where to kill hapless cannon fodder his goons rounded up in the streets.

  19. Leaks or no leaks, Blinken said that it was time for Ukrainians to go to the slaughterhouse. WSJ is describing Zelenskyy mobilization in this way: "Mr. Zelensky in January introduced even harsher punishment for desertion and disobedience. A disabled person was drafted in western Ukraine and pronounced fit for service despite having no hands . Another died on the front lines within a month of mobilization after 10 days of training, according to his relatives. " Zelenskyy is officially catching and forced conscripting even disabled.

  20. It's a wrong title. The right one: "German economy is over". Deindustrialization is irreversible.

  21. I thought Russia was running out of weapons, ammo, hardware, etc. I thought Putin was dying, like of a different disease each two weeks. I thought Ukraine was winning EASY thanks to the heroism of The Ghost of Kiev and Ben Stiller. Who could imagine that “evacuation” actually means surrender, “strategic withdrawal” means running for the hills dropping weapons, leaving wounded and equipment after total rout? How are they going to call Ukraine’s unconditional surrender? May be strategic evacuation across the polish border. To all Ukrainian supporters in this comment section, your sorrow and disappointment on the continuous defeats of Ukrainian armed forces, is the source of my utmost joy, what a hilarious laughingstock you are.😂😂😂

  22. Yeah, EU economy failed.

  23. German economy is dying. Germany doesn't have any government, it has a bunch of puppets that let US puppet master destroy German livelihood.

  24. Unconditional surrender is the only way out for Ukraine. Hitler's Germany also refused to admit defeat until Hitler killed himself, then Keitel signed unconditional surrender. Biden administration is urging Zelenskyy regime to start its last and most likely suicidal offensive because current situation is unsustainable. It would be difficult to convince republican congress to keep wasting hundreds of billions on this lost war. WSJ is describing Zelenskyy mobilization in this way: "Mr. Zelensky in January introduced even harsher punishment for desertion and disobedience. A disabled person was drafted in western Ukraine and pronounced fit for service despite having no hands . Another died on the front lines within a month of mobilization after 10 days of training, according to his relatives." Zelenskyy is officially catching and forced conscripting even disabled. When such people are in the trenches, it means that the front can collapse at any moment. Plan B of Biden administration is to try to throw Polish army into a meat grinder. I just hope that Polish government isn't that crazy.

  26. Switzerland already ditched neutrality by joining illegal (not approved by UNSC) sanctions. Now that the war is almost lost by Ukraine Switzerland regrets this dumb move.

  27. Yeah, it will eventually fail on the polish border.🤣Meanwhile in the real world Ukraine is losing the war. There are mass surrender and desertion. The most important thing is that Ukrainian professional army including elite Nazi units like Azov regiment suffered unsustainable losses and you can't do much with conscripts (most of them are really unwilling to fight for the regime). Just recently 32 Ukrainian soldiers were shot dead by Ukrainian Nazi unit while crossing the frontline trying to surrender. According to Guardian “…more than 20,000 casualties a month raises questions about what state Ukraine’s army will be in if the conflict drags on into the autumn. Ukraine is losing 2 to 3 brigade's a month at this rate. That's unsustainable.” Western supplies are a drop in the bucket taking into account the amount of already lost hardware. Without direct intervention of Polish or Romanian armies Ukrainian army will be done by the end of the year. 40+ billion in American weapons without even minimal oversight is mostly about corruption and kickbacks as usual. I suppose Ukraine is the second largest buyer of Hunter's art after China .

  28. Ukraine failed to reach even the first main line of Russian defense after 10 days of offensive while suffering catastrophic losses. Adding insult to injury Russians captured Leopard 2A6 and Bradley. Zelenskyy managed to waste dozens of tanks (including cutting-edge German Leopard 2A6s) and hundreds of armored vehicles (including Bradley) along with thousands of hapless Ukrainian conscripts on the mine fields, hit by Russian artillery or anti-tank missiles without even getting to the first main line of Russian defense .

  30. Ukraine isn't a democracy. Far from it. In democracies there is more than one TV Channel, main political parties and main Christian denominations aren't banned, no mass extrajudicial killings, disappearances and torture, men from 18 to 60 aren't banned from leaving the country, people aren't rounded up in the streets and dragged to their death. Democracies hold elections after all. Well, it's a quote from The Time article. Zelenskyy top advisers say about him: “He deludes himself, ” one of his closest aides tells me in frustration. “We’re out of options. We’re not winning. But try telling him that. It is immovable, verging on the messianic.” According to the Economist Zelenskyy is literally screaming at his generals at this point. One Austrian artist was in a similar state in 1945 . Zelenskyy "achievements" to date: 970,000 Ukrainians are dead, 3x that mangled and crippled for life, half of Ukraine's population is living as refugees scattered all over Europe and Russia right now, they're drafting women because they've run out of men to kidnap off the streets. NYT wrote about these mass kidnappings that were happening only in Zelenskyy Ukraine and Hitler's Germany in 1945 in an article ‘People Snatchers’. According to Zelenskyy latest statement only joining NATO or nukes can save his hide. These are lunatic ramblings of a desperate dictator before the imminent collapse of the regime. Russians won't agree to any ceasefire or a freeze at this point. Ukraine badly needs liberation as Hitler's Germany needed liberation in 1945.

  32. This propaganda puff piece is beyond ridiculous. Reality check for dumb TL DR propagandists. “Europe has been thinking about life and production for decades, based on stable and cheap energy supplies from Russia. However, the conflict in Ukraine has radically changed the picture of the future of Europe, the situation has become terrible" Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida on the air of the NHK TV channel.

  33. Lyman isn't a strategic transport hub. There is nothing strategic about this town with population before the war of roughly 20 000. Russians took it only in May this year. For purely political reasons Zelenskyy wasted his last reserves on this venture trying to capture it by September 30 deadline. No Russian troops were encircled in and around the town.
    2
  34. Yeah, usual stuff. Ukrainian forces are advancing backwards, while Russians are retreating forward. Russians keep using missiles that they were run out of three months ago. Who could imagine that “evacuation” actually means surrender, “strategic withdrawal” means running for the hills dropping weapons, leaving wounded and equipment after total rout? How are they going to call Ukraine’s unconditional surrender? May be strategic evacuation across the polish border.

  35. You mean twitter and Facebook. In real life the war is already lost by Ukraine.

Ukrainian Ambassador to London Vadim Prystaiko: "We're losing people left and right." For some strange coincidence sons of Mr. Prystaiko are living in Belgium and don't want to die for Zelenskyy.

  39. I thought Russia was running out of weapons, ammo, hardware, etc., but Russians keep using missiles that they were run out of three months ago. I thought Putin was dying, like of a different disease each two weeks, then I inadvertently compared healthy-looking Putin with Biden’s mummy with constant enuresis in the WH. I thought Ukraine was winning EASY thanks to the heroism of The Ghost of Kiev , Ben Stiller and Malcolm Nance. Who could imagine that “evacuation” actually means surrender, “strategic withdrawal” means running for the hills dropping weapons, leaving wounded and equipment after total rout? Ukrainians in the mainstream media and on twitter in the most bizarre way manage to advance backwards, while Russians are retreating forward. How are they going to call Ukraine’s unconditional surrender? May be strategic evacuation across the polish border.

  40. It's WSJ neocon-lite plan not Trump's plan. It's a complete nonstarter for Russians. Trump simply can't carry on with Biden's war without ruining his presidency, legacy and JD chances for 2008 in the first year. Putin stated his conditions for even starting negotiations on the basis of Istanbul quite clearly. 1. Full Ukrainian withdrawal from the regions that are included in Russian constitution; 2. Recognition and acceptance from Ukraine that these regions are Russian; 3. Acceptance of Ukraine's neutral status. Istanbul also included restrictions on Ukrainian army armaments and a number of personal. Russians categorically rejected any freeze of the conflict Korea-style. These conditions can get only tougher by the time. Even Trump wouldn't be able to accept these conditions explicitly without a coup attempt against him, but he could do it implicitly by cutting Ukraine's sustenance and turning the page.

  42. It's not about Ukraine (with its ruined economy it's not an asset, but a liability). It's about Russia long-term security. Putin said that he didn’t need negotiations, he needed results. No more NATO expansion, no more NATO militarization of Eastern Europe, no more NATO attack systems in Eastern Europe, no more broken promises (not one inch eastwards etc.) He has a point, but US establishment doesn't understand language of reason and never keeps promises. The only thing that can bring US establishment to its senses is nuclear-tipped supersonic missiles that can incinerate Washington DC in 5 minutes. US establishment (as a retired serviceman, I was part of it) is so corrupted by decades of crazy dollar printing, that it lost connection with reality (as if Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, Yugoslavia debacles weren’t enough). Along with absolutely crazy domestic policies (the best example is that nobody really cares about curbing soaring inflation and ousting all Keynesian lunatics with their negative real interest rates from the Fed) this is driving America into the ground. American democracy with its checks and balances proved to be pretty brittle and was destroyed by bad money. I'm a patriotic American and it's all very sad. P.S. You should keep in mind that many figures in this propaganda video are massaged. For example they use simple GDP numbers to compare economy sizes. It's deliberately misleading. GDP (PPP) (purchasing power parity) should be used in this case. Russia's GDP (PPP) in 2021 is 4.32 trillion, Germany's GDP (PPP) 4.74 trillion.

  43. You were dreaming exactly about this one year ago. Since then EU economy is dying, UK is on the brink of hyperinflation and Zelenskyy is running out of cannon fodder.
    2
  44. EU economy is dying. It's an underlying reason. The war is lost by Ukraine and it can't be helped as it was impossible to help Hitler's Germany in 1945.

  45. In reality Russians took a commanding height (slag heap) in Avdiivka area. All escape routes from Avdiidvke are under Russian fire control. It's turning into Bakhmut 2.0. i.e. almost one-sided slaughter of Ukrainian troops. It makes zero military sense to keep Ukrainian troops in Avdiivka let alone send reinforcements there, but only for media hype Zelenskyy and his minions will do exactly that. Zelenskyy is simply incapable of learning from past mistakes. He is as clueless, media hype obsessed and hubristic as he has always been. Zelenskyy is the gift that keeps on giving for Russians.

  46. As long as China, India and almost all other influential countries (except US satellites) are implicitly on the Russian side it's much more likely that EU will collapse. It seems that deindustrialization in EU is irreversible.
    2
  47. EU economy is dead. No more subsidies. It's time to get rid of moochers and troublemakers like Poland.
    2
  48. Russia's GDP(PPP) is the 6th largest in the world, not far behind that of Germany. Any meaningful sanctions would mean certain death of EU economy, so it simply won’t happen. China and Russia are far more important for EU economy than US. Unilateral US sanctions will be completely ineffective. There are no trade relations to speak of between US and Russia. Russia is the only country in the world that can obliterate the US. NATO military infrastructure near its borders is as acceptable to Russia as Russian nuclear missiles in Cuba to the US. It's not about Ukraine at all (with its ruined economy it's not an asset, but a liability). Russians aren't going to trifle with their national security. The time when they tried to reason with the US is over. These are basic facts. People who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.
