  1. Where are the 1000 North Korean casualties? Ukraine told CNN this

  2. The entire tone of your daily summary is essentially: "...and today the Russian steamroller has flattened this part, is preparing to flatten that part, has cleaned up after flattening that part, and estimates they will flatten that part sometime next week". You don't even need the details anymore.....the previous sentence sums things up nicely for the past two months... 😂

  3. The "gap" between the red "pincers" in the center of the city is only about 5 km. The overpressure lethal radius of a 2000 lb bomb is a 1.5km circle from point of impact. Just imagine that on AFU....

  4.  @TeunisMarinus  ??? Yes, but they hung 5,000 KIA on AFU's best UK-trained troops in Krinky, right? Isn't that the whole point of war?

  5. This really is a 21st century war; even Fallujah 2004 was nothing like this. These quadcopter drones were toys just a decade ago now they are bombs guided by the best intelligence system on Earth---a human. Even the small ones carry an explosive that basically took out the entire floor of what looked like at least about 3000 square feet of space. Even if you didn't get hit by fragments, your eardrums are destroyed and possibly your lungs collapsed in that enclosed space. Western leaders talk trash about Russia and say Ukraine is too slow; but in both cases the West is full of isht. None of them have ever fought a war like this. If Saddam's men had drones like this, US Marines wouldn't have taken a month to capture Fallujah, it would have taken them a YEAR.

  7. Trumpeter (big military model kit maker) has their '24 line coming out and for the first time we are getting the latest versions of Russian tanks in SMO livery (and with cope cages!). I plan to build an entire array of models of Russian hardware to commemorate their victory over NATO.

  8. I mean, everyone who watches this channel said two weeks ago when Ukraine started to go hard in Zaporizhzhia that they were being allowed to enter a meat grinder.

  9. Yeah...what's this the 54th "game changer" or the 55th? I lose count there have been so many
    3
  10. How many Chechens are going to Kursk?

  11. US local news in towns were Ukrainian soldiers are getting treated for loss of limbs, very serious injury and all of them say the same thing when interviewed. "We are shot at almost immediately" or "the average soldier at the front lasts three days before becoming a casualty". Day after day, for months now, this summary and many others say the same thing. Infantry assaults result in horrendous losses in every war. I recall stories about the Battle of the Bulge, where in the opening stages the Germans used infantry assault so they would not lose so many tanks in breaking through American lines. Some American soldiers said they stopped shooting at the Germans because by that stage of the war, the Wehrmacht was mostly teenage boys, and they killed so many with machine gun fire it made them sick to see all the dead littering the ground in front of their foxhole. We are seeing the exact same thing happening again.

  12. What are the guesses at Ukrainian casualties in just the past week? NATO must have made some kind of promise to Ukraine for them to simply try the "bust through no matter the cost" strategy
    3
  13. ?? That's why we come here; this PERSON's view (who is doing this 24/7). Otherwise its just a daily report of how much this and how much that and that's boring.

  14. Those Wagners man....they are going into the history books with Spartans, Persian Immortals, Centurions, US Marines in Pacific War, etc....

  15. NATO may physically leave Mali, but they'll just arm whoever is against the government as they have done for decades. The old school CIA way. They won't just let Russia build up five or six countries there with no resistance

  16. Go Russia! I have no hate for Ukraine but Biden and NATO are using Ukraine to destroy Russia.

  17. Mi-28 gets no love 😅

  18. Neither side posts videos of their failures; only their successes. Don't fall victim to confirmation bias.

  19. RU has to show why the "no Western weapons used in Russia" rule was in place for 2+ years. NATO changed their policy suddenly to enable this attack, Russia has to change its "policy" suddenly in return..."

  20. Source: trust me bro?

  21. I can't believe Syrsky even took that job a few months back. A job Zaluzhzhny said was hopeless a year ago. Napolensky is going to start ordering him to send in "Army Group Steiner" very soon (if he hasn't already). Even Biden believes Zelensky may be trying to draw the US into direct war with Russia: ""...But Ukraine is fighting for its survival. It would accept direct US involvement in a war with Russia. According to a recent book by David Sanger, Biden even suggested to his aides that Zelenskyy might be deliberately trying to draw America into a third world war..." Financial Times - 8/26/24

  22. This is basically the Russian version of the Jan 6th attack on the US Capitol
    2
  23. Zel is offering to sign the deal but Trump is still PO'ed at him so it'll probably be at least a week or two till they kiss and make up. Russia will ROFLstomp them during that time.
    2
  24. Just how in the HELL is AFU capable of special ops in freakin' Sudan, unless US military fly them there, equip them, feed them, and provide all the intel for them??? To kill BLACK members of Wagner; men who NEVER fought in Ukraine??? Those devils Blinken and Nuland have their hands all over that. WOW! My government is making me really angry!

  25. I will admit that I am very surprised that Russia has not decisively defeated Ukraine to the point even their die hards see no choice but to talk. Ukraine fighting Russia is like a soy boy fighting Mike Tyson; if the soy boy manages to hit Mike, it is nothing really to Tyson, but it is a big deal to the soy boy (and his fans). There are signs that Putin has been holding back all along, not really wanting to vaporize the entire landscape of Ukraine (this restraint created Prigozhin). However, there are also signs Russia legitimately is at the limit of its ground combat capability---the dismissed General speaking of how he lacked enough of almost everything to truly defeat his opponent. Russia has 1500 combat aircraft yet only the Su-24s see any constant action; Ukraine no longer sends up fighters so the Su-27s and 35s have nothing to do. The bomber force could level cities with tons of dumb bombs, but that wouldn't do much militarily and in any event they are content to just be missile trucks for precision strike. There is a 100-ship navy that is doing almost nothing; a few Kalibrs a week. Maybe its both? Russia is holding back AND is near its limit on the ground?

  26. If its true Avdiivka has 15,000 AFU and many NATO mercenaries (and is the basis of Ukraine's position in Donetsk since 2014), then it has to go. Russia has to take it to cleanse all of Donetsk so if it takes 500 vehicles, 10,000 casualties and four months, so be it. It is worth it to win the war.

  27. "....and as you can see the entire block of Petropavlivka village was erased...." Military Summary reminds you to condemn any violence in the world...🤣🤣🤣
    2
  28. as long as the enemy is losing more, you are winning, correct? The point of war is to win. The West fights "play war" like Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. where they don't actually want to win, just to make a point or regime change. In those cases casualties are to be kept low for the West. However when your countries' life depends on it, the West WILL send you to your death just like the Russians do.

  29. There was an article last week in the National Interest, a neo-con outlet, and the author flat out stated "...the Ukraine War has proven the T-72 is the best tank in the world..." A lot of US MIC heads are exploding this week....

  30. Ukraine trading lives for land, Russia trading land for time. 2023 campaign season is about over. Winter is to rest, rotate, and train up new Legions for Spring 2024. Putin this week authorized 147,000 drafted between now an Spring, plus the 280,000 Medveyev said they recruited this year with bonuses, debt forgiveness, citizenship, etc. So thats 427,000 more ready by next year this time. AFU is sending 71 yr old men to NATO training, demanding countries send back male refugees, now conscripting women. Russia hasn't even had to raise its draft eligibility age max from its current age 27. Ukraine can win battles, but they will never win the war.

  31. I would like a mini episode totally focused on what this air raid hit. So many targets in so many places, and West media will never report it. We could learn a lot by analyzing what RU is targeting...."
    2
  32. Wow. The Tu-22M story if true is a major problem.
    2
  33. The only metric that matters is what was the cost. If Ukraine said "ok, we accept 3000 casualties and 100 vehicles to take this town", and they take about that amount, they are "winning". If they lost 6000 casualties and 200 vehicles, Russia is winning. We just have no idea yet
    2
  34. If its on CNN or BBC, it's a lie
    2
  35. To see Velkya Novosilka now covered in red when just around Christmas the place was completely yellow is sobering. How many AFU were surrounded and captured in the south of the city?
    2
  36. This summary was like "left, left, body blow, right, left, body-blow, body-blow, uppercut!" There is NOTHING in Western Media AT ALL today about Ukraine's current state....in fact the whole week has been mostly silence. I think it is clear they simply have nothing good to say, so they say nothing..."

  37. I am 100% certain Zelensky plans to share the fate of his country. When he chose not to negotiate in 2022 he tied his future to that of Ukaine as he dreams of it to be.
    2
  38. Russia never fights NATO directly; they'd lose such a fight. For every ATACMS that lands in Russia, a German internet cable will experience "failure", a Greek pipeline will develop a "leak", a Polish fuel storage tank will "ignite" , a Brit wind farm in the North Sea will lose fan blades to a "fault" , a French....well....you get the picture... 🤣

  39. Cut the figures in half and they are still catastrophic

  40. A few weeks ago the son of my wife's close friend told his family he is being deployed to "Europe". He is in the infantry, wife and two kids---one just born a few months ago. Great young man. I told my wife "he can't say, but I'm 99% certain he is going to Poland" (my wife never watches the news and has zero interest in geopolitics), and explained to her what is going in this war. She got a look of dread on her face, and I reassured here it was likely just political. Shore up Poland, make a show if it for Putin, etc. and the likelihood of him going to war with Russia was near zero. I am no longer sure of that: Ukraine has been simply hurling itself against the Fortress Zaporizhzhia wall with little apparent concern for losses since Zelensky visited the front a week ago. Zaluzhny called Robotyne "Kursk 2023" a few days ago, and AFU asked Zelensky to approve 200,000 more mobilization a week ago. Ukraine is fully aware it is going to lose A LOT of troops and is obviously prepared to do so. Such a gambit only makes sense if Zelensky knew his risk was mitigated somehow; he would not throw his entire NATO force into the grinder and just hope for victory without some insurance against disastrous loss. I now believe that "insurance" is Biden has assured him NATO will enter Ukraine if necessary to prevent a complete and total disastrous defeat and Russian occupation of the majority of what remains of the country.

  41. I guessed Mariupol and I wasn't far off. I didn't see the dam busting coming but it makes perfect sense from Ukraine's point of view. Two weeks ago the WSJ had a retired general lay out 4 attack options he thought for Ukraine, it appears this is his option #2 Zaporizhzhia. The Russian defensive lines in that area are very strong; Novoprokopivka lay right in the center of 4 lines; 2 in front and 2 bigger behind it. This will not be any kind of maneuver war until Ukraine breaks through at least 5 or 6 lines; this will be the Germans and Belgians at Liege. Rock vs. hard place and one will eventually break.
    2
  42. I was just thinking last night that Ukraine has no depth in their combat power. They had to have blown that dam, because right now if 25K Russians pushed through Kherson there would be nothing to stop them. I also dont think they could stop 25K from Belgorod either.
    2
  43. US raised rates just 18 months ago to fight serious inflation due to high salaries and only just very recently has the inflation rate begun to stabilize and prices on cars and houses starting to fall.
    2
  44. AFU just asked Zelensky for 200K more last week. Ukraine basically had decided that either they will win and survive, or there will be no Ukrainians in the land that is now called Ukraine. "Victory or Death" strategy.
    2
  45. Im pro-Russia simply because NATO started the war by threatening Russia first. NATO must fail or we will see them do the same with Taiwan against China, Nigeria against Niger, anywhere anyone can bribed to be the Western proxy to do their dirty work will now be a new "cauldron". A NATO victory is a far more dangerous global future for ALL than a Russian victory
    2
  46. It's Russia now....2+ years and 20 years from now will be 22+ and counting. Get used to it
    2
  47. It has been unmistakable that the past month or two NATO has stepped up its game on Ukraines behalf. Precision strike is where NATO dominates and we are seeing more of that than ever before, because that requires intelligence, surveillance, satellites, $200M Global Hawk, etc. A billion dollars of assets are used before one HIMARS gets fired. That is the unmistakable hand of NATO. Ukraine may be taking tens of thousands of casualties on the ground, but Russia is going to have to find a way to counter this growing precision strike capability of Ukraine.

  48. Waiting to see the "making gains" headlines on CNN and BBC later today....
    2
  49. Russia should advance through Kupiansk, Bakhmut, and Ohrekov. NO way Ukraine can stop all three.
    2
  50. CNN/BBC too. The amount of cognitive dissonance on the NATO side is astounding. However, I've begun to hear arguments by them now of "well, what has Putin really won?". They are beginning to believe...
