  1. Prediction: this "analysis" will age badly 😂
    14
  2. Anders is always there to give you a good cope 🍼
    13
  3. "It will take 6 to 12 months for Russia to take Pokovrsk"... this analysis will age like one of Biden's diapers 😂
    13
  4. For over 2 yrs, western "analysts" have said that RU army sucks because it's only making small advances... then it dawns on them that it's been a RU attrition strategy all along while UA has been terrain-centric with PR operations 😂
    10
  5. All of Anders news is encouraging! And most of it turns out wrong 🎉
    10
  6. The soothing sound of copium 🍼
    7
  7. 1. How is the river crossing going (2 weeks since the video) 2. Presuming that there are 2 UA battalions on that side of the river, what is the minimum daily supply in tons and how many rubber boat trips does that take to ferry over?
    6
  8. This "line of thinking" is your own (wrong) assumption. Which makes your entire "assessment" invalid.
    6
  9. "No conscription until later in March after the elections to avoid political problems"... Anders, you don't understand something as basic as annual Russian conscription intake schedule???? Its twice a year: March and September. Its been like that for many, many years 😂
    5
  10. @slocad11  are you looking foward to becoming a Russian citizen?
    5
  11. So why is Russia out producing everything, especially artillery shells, in what looks very much like an artillery war?
    5
  12. "The mud season is a couple of months".... No. Its a couple of weeks. "Analyst". I'd fire you off my staff.
    5
  13. "The Russians are short of air defence" ??? WTF 😂
    4
  14. Sure. Putin is having his 31st case of cancer, palsy, parkinsons. Shoigu is on his 25th heart attack. Since you are so knowledgeable on observable medicine, what are Biden's and Zelentsky's ailments?
    4
  15. Don't confuse "UK intelligence" with "UK information operations". When is the last time they turned out to be right?
    4
  16. @TrevorCrook-c1s  exactly. A serving NATO officer making youtubes. Looks, smells and walks like an Info Op 😆
    4
  17.  @vulgarisopinio  he's an active duty Danish navy intel "analyst." He can't say anything but good stuff for UKR and never for RU. I bet his channel is a nato info op... a very bad one
    4
  18. A country that funds its war thru savings rather than debt. An alien concept in the west. High interest rates is NOT bad for investing. Its bad for BORROWING. ECO 101.
    4
  19. I like your analysis. Because its fairly predictable that the opposite will actually happen. "4-500 soldiers per kilometer is not a lot" 😂 This is what you get from a navy "analyst" that doesnt even understand his own alliances doctrine. A battalion (4-500 soldiers) defensive doctrine states 2-3 km frontage. Not surprisingly, this is the same for both Soviet and now Russian doctrine. The fact that UA hasnt been able to get thru the Russian security zone, never mind even reaching any main defensive positions, after 3 months should be telling you that Anders is full of it. Anders, try this Red Cell exercise: look at the Russian side and really do an honest, unbiased assessment of their strengths, weakenesses and options. Then see how these match up the UA side. Lastly, what is your estimate for losses on both sides in last 3 months?
    4
  20. If RU had to choose between regular conscription phase OR mobilization, they would need mobilization if they are as desperate as you say they are at the front. But there is no mobilization... ergo, they are not "desparate at the front"
    4
  21.  @dr-rexmangrca113  "the rouble is in tatters"... oopsie 🤣
    4
  22. "RU troops don't rotate"... this is patently false. Home leave was normal in the first year of the war an still is. What kind of info op are you running here? 😂
    3
  23.  @BigDsGaming2022  but they (US) are running out of ammo. In one of his rare lucid moments, biden told a reporter they are sending cluster rounds because that's all they can spare. Cost of 155 has gone from $2k to 8k (each). That's not the result of economy of scale production but of scarcity. Russian 152mm is same price as it always was; $600 🤣
    3
  24.  @ABCBCNM  have watched some of these vids? They are often baseless assumptions. "Putin's regime is collapsing", "UA is winning", "UA can break thru the Surovikin line", "the RU winter offensive failed" (there wasn't one - just the Bakhmut operation)... it's hopium because even analytical assumptions should have some "indicators" to base them on. In this video, Anders says the mud has stopped armoured vehicle movement. The daily telegram vids on drones destroying both UA and RU tanks say otherwise. You are better off watching History Legends or Military Summary Channel. Although they are amateurs get it more right, more often than this "expert". I'm convinced more and more that Anders' channel is just a NATO info op 🤣
    3
  25.  @ABCBCNM  I suppose, as a serving NATO officer, at a military academy in Denmark, Anders is better off drinking the kool-aid. Even if it's wrong, his career will be fine. Imagine if he was unbiased and said Russian Forces did something well... career over. The groupthink in some J2 shops extremely disappointing.
    3
  26.  @ABCBCNM  The New Atlas is also a great analysis channel.
    3
  27. @shueyk2320  I know. But Herr Puck, the "analyst", is oblivious and wrong. It's like he's a NATO propagandist. 🤣
    3
  28. @gregorymccue5003  They did and do. You just suffer from selective info cope. Zaluzhnyy says he needs 20,000 fresh meat puppets every month just to maintain numbers. UA suffered 170,000 casualties during failed summer offensive. UA marines feeding yet another battalion into the Krynky beach grinder. Looking at drafting 500,000 fresh puppets this winter including women.... obviously, UA doesn't use meat assaults 👍
    3
  29. The attackers take Bakhmut with less casualties than the defenders does not = "pyyrhic victory." Quite the opposite.
    3
  30. Has hell frozen over? You actually said Russia did some things well.👏
    3
  31. This channels "analysis" is so whack its gotta be an info op. Try History Legends and Military Summary (twice daily!)
    3
  32.  @Memovox  you get vodka and potatoes?! I'm on anti-freeze and dandelion leaves. I need to step up my game!
    3
  33. "No RU mobilization"... because there are more than enought volunteers. About 1,500/day. "UA offensive has not culminated"... yes it did. 3rd or 4th week of June. In August UA committed what was supposed to be 3rd echelon breakout forces. They didnt even reach the RU main defensive position (MDP) aka Surovikin Line. I have to ask, what in your opinion, would a failed UA offensive look like? Because I believe its long since failed
    3
  34. Your moral flexibility is jaw-dropping. Those "Ukrainian children" were children taken from ethnic Russian Ukrainian polulation to get them out of a war zone. Not Kiev. Plus many "Ukrainians" decided to flee the war east not west. Isreali apartheid of Palestinians, relocation from their homes/lands, periodic "mowing the grass" etc for 50+ years gets a pass 👍
    3
  35. "The Ukrainian Offensive" 🤡
    3
  36. @webjakob  Right? But here's the thing, Anders is still serving in Danish navy (which eminently qualifies him to speak on land combat). What do you suppose will happen to him if he said; RU is doing this well, that was a smart move, etc. His career would end. But if he follows the Project Ukraine narrative, no matter how many times his "analysis" is wrong, he'll be promoted. I'm convinced that his channel is a NATO info op.

  37.  @mariaf.6601  there are two rasputitsa (mud) seasons per year. Late March and late October. They can each last approx 2-4 weeks depending on temperature and rainfall.

  38. Errrrmmmm..... and whats west Pokovrsk? Short answer: Nothing. Long answer: Nothinnnggggg.

  39. We're fighting for democracy and free speech, remember?

  40. Q: what are Ukr casualty #s? A: Ukr is not going to run out of soldiers. Well, thanks for clearing up that simple question 🤡
    2
  41. Greenland would be a great place for the new Gitmo; American Arctic Gulag (AAG)
    2
  42. All Russia has to do is wait out NATO's "as long as it takes" support because Ukraine is TOTALLY dependent on the west.
    2
  43. Actually, Anders makes several mistakes and bad assumptions every video.
    2
  44. You're An expert... whose analysis is mostly wrong 😂
    2
  45. When the US does an air campaign to destroy a country's infrastructure it's not a war crime 🤔
    2
  46. "400-500 Russian soldier per km"..... no way they have defence in depth right? Multiple lines? No. They are lined up Naploleonic style. What a joke. Navy guy has no understanding.
    2
  47. How is Ukr going to afford a fleet of 300 "western fighters"?
    2
  48. RU meat assaults: stupid UA meat assaults: genius
    2
  49.  @counter-intelligence7902  I know. UA got to the Sea of Azov as intended!
    2
  50.  @thekurdishtapes8317  the fascists will never reach Azov or Crimea.
    2
  51. @gregorymccue5003  Really? Then why do they have Azov units in "barrier positions" behind assaulting territorial defence brigades? 🤔
    2
  52. @fodsaks  salty facts. If you like analysis with a heavy dose of bias, you're on the right YT channel. Anders "analysis" is mostly wrong. Even the assumptions that he uses as a basis are faulty. Garbage in, garbage out. Frankly, I don't think he's an Intel officer. Probably an info ops guy. This is an info ops channel. I took the courses in the army, so I recognize what I'm seeing. To cut Anders some slack, he is still serving. So he can get it all wrong as long as he drinks the kool-aid. I don't have those problems anymore.
    2
  53. If the Russians had a "winter offensive", isn't it weird that they build a huge defensive belt along the entire front? 🤔 If you'd bother to check out Mediazona's data, you'd realize there was no winter offensive; just the Bakhmut operation.
    2
  54. Anders, what do YOU consider minimum a outcome for success in this UA c/offensive? Cutting the Crimea land bridge? Taking 1,000 km2? 1 km2? Losing less soldiers than Russia?
    2
  55. I like that you are attempting to compare best/worst case scenarios. 1. "RU has an advantage in equipment and ammo". While that is true, the RU, in the 2nd year of the SMO, also have an advantage in manpower. 650k troops in the SMO area. UA is around 200k. Arty ammo production is 3.5M rounds/yr. US/EU combined is 400K rds/yr. 2. Satellite imagery shows that RU is building new defence plants. So they are not capped out. Where are the new NATO defence facilities? Just talk. 3. "RU is spending its SAVINGS". While the US and EU are growing their debt. If RU had to, don't you think they'll go to debt/govt bonds, too? 4. UKR defence production? WTF is that? A fraction of pre war levels 😂 5. "In the 2nd yr of the war, RU is on the offensive". False. 2023 was characterized by the defeated UA counter-offensive. RU is, as you later slip, is in an Active Defence phase. The Bakmut and Adiivka operations were more about attrition operations. Adiivka has the added political imperative of stopping the shelling of Donetsk which has been happening since 2014. 6. The Ukr supply chain has dried up. It's never going to be as good as winter of 22/23 pre counter-offensive. 6. Let me fix your "pessimistic scenario". Due to casualties and continued real military failures, more UA units refuse combat, civilian demonstrations increase, zelensky is forced out and the RU reach the Dniepr and take Odessa. The new Ukr leader signs capitulation. Ukr does not join NATO, all its heavy weapons including western equipment is handed to RU and the UA is capped at 100k internal security troops. Most NATO members don't actually make good on their announced defence increases due to populations not wanting to give up established generous social benefits. This causes collapse of NATO. US, UK, Australia, NZ and Can formalize their current arrangement into a new alliance. The remainder become members of the currently planned EU Army.

  56.  @Princip666  I hear you about TY. Although Mr. Puckhead also deletes my comments from time to time. "The arena of ideas" 😆 "Western heads exploding" 😆 great line. But who is this western leadership dream team? biden, blinken, austin, scholz, bierbock, vanderleyen, boris the clown johnson, the sun king macron and blaqueface trudeau. Mental midgets paired up against putin and lavrov. But seriously, Russia doesn't want or need the non-russian part of ukr. What they have now represents 40% of ukr's GDP. Should they go to the Dniepr River and Odessa, and I think they will, it will be 60% of the GDP? What if Poland, Hungary and Romania want their parts of Western ukr back? That would have more heads exploding 😆
    2
  57. So... tell us. What have the casualties been in Bakhmut? Saying they have been "costly to Russia" means nothing without #s. If you were on my staff, you wouldn't be for long. Facta non verba.
    2
  58. In 4-5 yrs, Ukr will have the air force that RU allows them😂
    2
  59. Is one of the agreements you mentioned include the Minsk agreement?
    2
  60.  @Sparticus-fh3os  how about a 20 year failure against Afghan guys in flip-flops and manjamas?
    2
  61. @TechnoViking111  My "expensive military stuff"? Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not American
    2
  62. You have to surmise that agreements were hashed out behind closed doors before the media conference. Then zelensky tried to get things out again for live discussion. Thats his bad. Looked liked an intervention trying to get zelentsky to understand reality of his situation. But hey, you get this when you deal with an addict. "Europe is going to have to carry Ukraine now." Good F'ing luck with that. Europe can't carry themselves without the US. Uk and France know they can't send "reassurance forces" to Ukr without the US backstopping them. Why is that? 🤔
    2
  63. WTF are you talking about? There was no "Russian Winter Offensive". Not only did, Russia not announce it, there was no evidence of one. The casualty figures bear this out. With such a bias blindspot, are you a pundit? Because you can't be an "analyst" 😂
    2
  64. Yes, because that's what nato needs; a corrupt govt led by a comedian and some neo nazi units 👍
    2
  65.  @The_ZeroLine  the US inspector General "said" 🤣😆🤣😆 They also said safe & effective. 2 weeks to flatten the curve. 👍

  66.  @Memovox  won't be the first time people bought bad products. I had the misfortune to buy a Max Boot book... total garbage.

  67.  @Memovox  thanks, comrade! 🐻
    2
  68. "Trump wants to help Putin." How stupid. Trump started arming Ukraine, not Obama. But that's never discussed. Such garbage "analysis", as usual.
    2
  69. Oh.... suddenly Bakhmut isn't important anymore. "The war will be won or lost in Bakhmut" - V. Zelentsky
    2
  70. "Hope." With biden, blinken, austin, sholz, macron, sunak, and van durrr leyen... what could go wrong? 🤷
    2
  71. ​ @Rtg5637 how can that be? Zelentsky was Time Man of the year. A new Churchill. And Zaluzhnyy the ne Eisenhower or Patton. Were we lied to?😢

  72. Trump will shut off the $. Who'll pick up the slack? Europe? 😂😂😂😂😂
    2
  73. @thedutchfoxxx  7:02 mark. "Pokovrsk may take them [RU] 6 mths maybe up to a year..." my ears and comprehension is A+. Yours?
    2
  74. @mariaf.6601  yes, after the rain it's wet ground. But it's "solved" differently for each rasputitsa. The October one is wet until the ground freezes. It will freeze around mid November. So if it rains later in October, it's pretty short. This year it is looking short so far. The other one started in late March with spring thaw. It's longer depending on how warm/cool the spring is and how much April rain.
    2
  75. @mariaf.6601  further to my last... tanks are moving freely across the fields as seen in drone footage. The October rains are delayed. Steady rain expected end of first week of November. So this seasons rasputitsa will be quite short.. if the weather turns cold by mid November. And why wouldn't it. We'll see.
    2
  76. 😂😂😂😂😂 go ahead. Invest in Ukraine. Your money will be rock solid there! 😂😂😂😂
    2
  77.  @stevewhite3424  Right? The EU economies are in decline. GDP growth is from negligible to negative. They are funding their own budgets and the war in Ukraine with debt. Forget about "rebuilding" their militaries. Only 3 NATO members can make the 2% commitment.

  78. Such wisdom! You, Sir, are the next Zhukov!

  79. You make it seem like Zaluzhnyy was an unknown before his debut essay 😂
    1
  80. 10 mths into the war and you're thinking "long or short"? I'm my opinion, the short option ended in the summer. Why do you think "not much will happen in the winter"? The war started in winter! Lastly, no one knows how many missiles Russia had at the start nor how many missiles they still produce each month. It's silly to assume, and I'm using that word on purpose instead of presume, that there is no monthly missile production. You just discount that possibility entirely. Hopium 👍

  81. @anderspuck  it's the new normal of western free speech... and it's only going to get "freer". So much freedom. Aren't we lucky?

  82. That the terrorists were caught on their way to ukraine doesn't pique your curiousity as an analyst? Top marks! 👌

  83.  @ABCBCNM  then they were on the wrong road 😂

  84.  @ABCBCNM  you're right. They were going to stop on the Russian side border and call it a day. 👍
    1
  85. At this stage, Russia can demand; it doesn't need to negotiate or cease-fire. "What does Trump want?" He's said it. Stop the dying. If this is detrimental to Europe, then Europe needs to step up. But it can't. 😂😂😂😂

    1
  88. Even that amateur History Legends does a better (and unbiased) analysis. Dima at Military Summary Channel is another good one. S2 Underground is good but does more Gaza coverage now. But he does make coherent analyst comments. On substack there is "Simplicius The Thinker" and "Big Serge" (I suspect that Simplicius was military intel and Serge some kind of combat maneuver arm - just guessing). But Anders, your "analysis" is so off that its either just plain bad (to be kind) or an info op 😂

  89. Are you really paying any attention to the turn in the headlines? From Ghost of Kiev to perhaps its better to negotiate since we're outta ammo now?

  93. What happens if one of the armies in Ukraine collapses. Refuses orders. Desertions go sky high. Would there be negotiations or capitulation? 🤔

  95. ​ @Zifferony your impression of events has been manufactured for you using cognitive and cultural vectors. Look up information operations and tell me I'm wrong.
    1
  96. Wagner is in Ukraine. Look at a map; they're in Kherson region. The mutiny was about resisting going on the RU MoD rolls. But you are preferring the Prigozin narrative ( as and when it suits you). The "RU Winter Offensive". There wasn't one. The RU didn't state it. And Mediazonas casualty figures back this up: biggest losses were associated with Bakhmut. "Stopped RU from taking next town after Bakhmut" is only an assumption; not a fact. For a guy that says he's an intel analyst (abliet navy), your critical reasoning skills are underwhelming.

  97. If Europe can't keep up their end of defending themselves, why bother. They've enjoyed decades of generous social programs and welfare. Time to stew in their own juices.

  113. You are stuck in a very old (and erroneous) "thinking". They pioneered armored and combined arms doctrine in the 1930s. The Soviet army in 1941 was far different from the one in '43+... because they were "rigid"? Even western pundit commentaries are acknowledging the the RU now is far different from the start of the war because they "adapt quickly". But keep on being stuck in your cold war propoganda mode. Because the height of military analysis is to constantly underestimate your adversary 👍

  115. The mineral deal was zelensky's idea. True fact. Then when the US looked at it in Kiev there was shouting. So postponed to MSC. Z failed to sign. Then this Washington debacle. Notice zelensky didn't sign again? Never trust a junkie.

  116. So there are 60-80k UA around Bakhmut and they have been feeding in reserves. Who has been distracted?

  120. @Hans Sarpaier  the US leaks put RU losses between 35-43k. The BBC Mediazona put put at 20k. Last Dec, EU president let slip 100k UA KIA. I think that's now about 140k. But you keep listening to CNN 👍

  126. @AlexKarasev  I suppose you can take it as a taunt or a legit question. Up to you. But living in Kharkiv, there is a high probability that OP is ethnic Russian and, 2 the way Anders does "analysis" on the war and Ukr winning, 2023 counter attack, Russia running out of tanks/missiles/troops, etc there is high probability that the city will be Russian territory when this war ends.

    1
  131.  @guydreamr  "blalanced", "unbiased" means calling out the good and bad plays on each side. That never happens on this channel. Why? Because Anders is an officer at a Danish mil academy. He's a serving NATO officer. He'll be on the carpet for disloyalty if he says RU did something well. He kept saying the UA c/offensive was making gains when it was already dead in the water. Look at what he said about Bakhmut being "strategically important " while in UA hands then magically it wasn't very important once it changed hands. All those "game changers" that amounted to nothing. Putin has cancer/14th heart attack/med issues.. ok, I'll bite. Source? Zero. Putin under political stress/tenuous hold on power... as evidencedby what? RU has sustained hundreds of thousands of deaths... BBC (UK MoD?) Funded "mediazona project" says different (check it out for yourself). When RU started using upgraded RM37 and shot down 25 UA aircraft in last two weeks of October... crickets. Here is some BS "analysis" from this vid: RU has to pull back to high ground away from river and build defences there OR fight at the current bridgehead line. Why can't they do both? Is that what RU did in order to build the Surovikin Line? Pull back and not maintain the line of contact? 🤡 Anders is a navy guy (i think the equivalent of an army major). I'll presume he knows what he's talking about in the maritime environment (im givinghim a freebie because i haven't heard any). But he's out to lunch on army operations. I conclude that he is either trying to make a popular name for western audience echo chamber to sell books/YouTube revenue OR the channel is a NATO info op. So why do I watch Anders? Because I listen to points of view across the whole spectrum and then make my own assessment of who is winning. It's not who Anders says it is...

  132.  @alfisti93  James Baker stated that the United States was striving for a united Germany that would remain "firmly tied to NATO," promising at the same time "iron guarantees that NATO jurisdiction or forces would not move eastward." (FEB 1990)

  133.  @alfisti93  are you trying to say there are no nato bases east of Germany?

  134.  @alfisti93  agreements ratified by US-USSR continued after USSR. Like INF. They didn't just disappear, right?

  135.  @alfisti93  yes, I do think that. When someone says no eastward expansion, I tend to believe the mean "no eastward expansion". I don't this RU would care if nato expanded to, say, Senegal 🤪

  136.  @alfisti93  no, no... I was mentioning the Afghan adventure I was involved with in nato. With all those weapons, tech, etc, etc... we lost a 20 yr effort. Perhaps if I was there more than the 8 yrs I did, we could have won! 🤟

  137.  @alfisti93  yes... me and nato. I'd say 60% of the coalition were tourists. Notably the Germans and Italians. The Japanese contingent didn't even have weapons 👍

  138.  @alfisti93  perhaps you should join a UA legion. You might enjoy it. Overall, my experience was personally very fulfilling and profitable. Viel Gluck! (Still remember a bit of German from when I was stationed there... near the inner german border)

  139. Anders has been mostly wrong...

  140.  @Pierluigi_Di_Lorenzo  if RU has the 2nd best army in Ukr, why is it causing 10x more casualties on UA and beating NATO? Why are western leaders (US) starting to talk about negotiations? Because they're winning? 🤔 Pull yer head outta your posterior 🤣

  144. @Gr1mPenguin  or the side that claimed the Heroes of Snake Island? Or the Ghost of Kiev? Or that they shoot down 99% of Khinzals and other missiles? Or that blamed their two S300 missiles that hit Poland on Russia to get NATO in on articles 5? That side is believable? Listen, when one side has 8x more artillery in a war where 90% of the casualties are due to artillery, you don't need a PhD in statistics to figure out the results. Name one area in which UA outnumber RU. Can you? Ultimately, all wars are decided by logistic chains. An arty shell for UA is made in Arkansas and has to get to Poland, then train and truck to the front. 10,000km. RU shells are made not even 1,000km away from the firing batteries and in much greater quantity. Read an article on Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) "The return of industrial warfare" and get educated... or keep coping. Up to you

  145. @JohnFlower-NZ  In the early stages of the battle, you may recall Zelentsky saying that Bakhmut will foretell the future of the conflict. Thats why the UA threw their all into it. 30 brigades. About 70,000 soldiers. He was right. And UA lost it. The trajectory is evident. Especially after the disastrous UA summer counter-offensive.

  147. @firebird4491  oh, just let our western govts push Ukrainians to be cannon fodder. Meanwhile, you sit back and enjoy the spectacle... until our kids get involved with this stupid war. It could have settled after the Istanbul talks in March 2022. But US sent Boris Johnson to tell Zelentsky "we got your back". The US objective is not to defend ukraine, it's to cause regime change in Moscow. Remember that. "Until the last Ukrainian" as they say in DC 🤡

  150. @jespernystad  So Jes, you think the US should pay to have military bases in Greenland?

  151. @TechnoViking111  the EU armies couldn't move or sustain themselves in Afghanistan. If you are saying that the EU doesn't need the US for defence, that means that you don't really believe that Russia is a threat to EU. Don't bother with defence my friend. Just keep paying for those awesome social programs and enjoying EU "democracy" 😉

  152.  @jespernystad  so the US should have a base for free in Greenland. Why?

  153. @jespernystad  phasing out US weapons. Good idea. Might as well phase out the German ones, too. I recommend you buy the ones that actually work 🇷🇺

  159. @Henry Hudson  the casualties of wagner vs rest of RU forces. Seems like wagner was the only one fighting.... and everyone knows where. I keep hearing about the "failed Russian offensive" but this claim is not supported in any way but fiction. Since western analysts said there should have been one, and there wasn't, is it a failure? 😜 In my day, this was called "situating the estimate"... intellectual laziness.

  163. @The_ZeroLine  you might recall CIA Burns making a trip in the spring to talk to zelentsky: UA generals overheard by NSA complaining that zman was taking too big a slice; $400M just from fuel sales. The Min Def Reznikov had contracts to buy all UA rations thru his own company at 2x the normal price. Some of the US aid $ sent to Ukr was then used to buy crypto at FTX who then filled the coffers of the DNC. FTX was the 2nd biggest donor to DNC after Soros. At the tactical level, it is widespread phenomenon that wounded soldiers have to pay medics to evacuate them. Recruits are tild to always have money in their pocket. The country is compromised from top to bottom.

  165. @rumpelstilzchen4202  the UA Min of Energy owns two power plants. His younger brother manages the company. They are paid by Ukr govt. The plants produce electricity but for Russia as they are in the Rissian zone. The younger brother accompanied Zman on his latest trip to DC. But not weird, right? (Edit: the US taxpayer is funding the Ukr govt services, civil/miltary salaries, pensions and power generation 👏)

  167. Well, do you want your govt to increase taxes?, cut social programs?, make defence company shareholders rich? How long will it take for another defence minister like Van Der Leyen to let a new armed forces fall into disrepair again? In the west, defence conglomerates have captured their govts for profit priorities. Russia has done the exact opposite. They have a state defence conglomerate that serves national defence priorities. What's going to happen when the EU countries stop paying those millions of military aged male "migrants"? 😂😂😂

  168. Well, for years Europe laughed at us for their awesome social welfare and health programs while we in the US payed for your defence. You got some adult decisions to make now. Reality, it's a bit#h. Remember how the Germans laughed at Trump when he said that it was dangerous to rely on Russian energy? Well, who's laughing now? Europe has always been an unreliable partner for the US. Europe creates the conditions that require a US blood and treasure solution. No more. Good luck and good riddance.

  169. @JR-gp2zk you misspelled "Royal Navy Poseidon nuclear missiles". There. I fixed it for you 👍

  170. Zaluzhnyy and zelentsky have been at odds since the early days. Now Zelentsky wants to take over operational command and has orded 500m a day advances across the front (Where's Kampfgruppe Steiner when you need it?). Zaluzhnyy has been against this offensive since it was conceived (remember he say his NATO mastets would never yry this operation without air superiority but UA has a gun to its head - also Wrstern politicians saying it must go ahead because they want to see "a return on their investment"). Zaluzhny will take the blame and be fired. That's why he's talking and admitting that the Russians ate winning. If NATO can't even supply the basics, how are they going to come up with Zaluzhny's new list of wunderwaffe? 😂

  184. @larsrons7937  luckily, I don't watch Danish TV. Anders has been so wrong about so much. Go back and watch his "analysis" of the UA spring greatest ukrainian counter-attack. It's a real gem. Western news outlets don't put on people that say RU is doing this or that well. Give us a break. Additionally, Anders statements about the "strategic air campaign" are 180 degrees off mark (for Angelina Baerbock fans, "360" 😆). In summary, we see a serving NATO officer giving analysis that ages badly and conforms to NATO narrative. Why would he be fired?
    1
  185. @larsrons7937  when has Anders' analysis been accurate? Remember all his hype about the US 2023 c/offensive? 100k casualties and didn't break the RU first line. What about the UA's useless ops @ Krynky beachhead? Waste of 4 good marine brigades.
