  1. he is a total liar and charlatan who absolutely refuses to report the truth about Russian successes on the front line.

  2. yet more evidence that Russia is running out of weapons, just as we have been told by the West for the last 12 months.

  3. at what point do you think dumbo Connelly will realize that the point of Russia's missile attacks is to deplete Ukraine's anti-air missile capability. "things not going well for Russia on the battlefield" says Nick, obviously unaware of the kill rate in Russia's favor, and the fact that Bakhmut has fallen to a bunch of demoralized convicts fighting with spades. Jeeez, lying charlatan.

  4. @Craig Steddy given the 5 objectives Putin announced at the beginning, the fall of Bakhmut is not high priority.

  5. @Craig Steddy slowly but surely, you are learning! what sense would it be to get just 40,000 troops bogged down in a city of 3 million? makes no sense, and isn't how Russia fought in Chechnya, Georgia or Syria! What would be the point of taking Kiev anyway? Taking Kiev wouldn't liberate the ethnic Russians in Donbass, would it?

  6. @Craig Steddy do you think Putin thought he would achieve his objectives in Syria in 3 days? in Chechnya in 3 days?

  8.  @badmonkey2222  the successes mentioned. the kill rate in Russia's favor, the depletion of Ukraine's air defences, the cauldrons around Bakhmut and Avdiivka, the 100% record of every time Russia fights toe to toe, street by street, Russia wins (Popasnaya, Severodonetsk, Mariupol, Lyzychansk, Soledar, Bakhmut) and achieving that with poor leadership, poor equipment, convicts and shovels, according to the West. where has Ukraine been successful in 2023?

  9.  @nudisco7882  it's personal for anyone who has close connections with Ukraine or Russia. you bet. easy for the West to push Ukraine to fight to the last Ukrainian.

  10.  @nudisco7882  how many Ukrainians on the ground do you know?
    1
  11.  @nudisco7882  so you haven't seen the videos of ukrainian men being ambushed and forced to sign up? do you think there are many ukrainan men in hiding and doing all they can to avoid the call up papers being pressed into their hands?

  12.  @nudisco7882  you know a few. meaning you have no idea how almost all soldiers, ukrainian and russian, feel about going to the frontlines, right? no idea at all. tell me, out of 100, how would you rank the willingness of Ukrainian recruits to be sent to the front lines compared to DPR and LPR recruits?

  13.  @nudisco7882  as expected, another fool totally unable and unwilling to answer basic questions. you are totally ignorant of the situation in the Donbass and try to hide your ignorance by the panicked "oooh, look at how old the account is" performance. let's try again. would ,you say a Ukrainian teenager called up and compelled to fight has more motivation than a DPR volunteer? you really believe ALL ukrainians fighting are doing so willingly? and if not all, roughly how many? cue the silence.

  15.  @nudisco7882  bla bla bla, no answers to basic questions, appealing to authority, pointing to the messenger instead of addressing the message all adds up to an incapable fool masquerading as a sage. goodbye Mr Dunce. Learn to answer the basics one day. it will serve you well.
