He's now trying the hoohoo tactic of pasting pages of bullshit.

He has been backed into a corner for the last several days, and he is desperate. He well knows that his points are empty, and the Russian army is being hollowed out by the day, yet he soldiers on desperately pushing the propaganda his masters have pushed into his small brain.

Sad.

Sabang, I reckon you would be posting more news from Russian sources and not opinion pieces if you are correct that Ukraine is losing. Opinions are like assholes.

[sabang]

I can do that if you like MK, I have refrained from posting several news articles. Tbh, it feels a bit like triumphalism though. I take no triumph at all in this war, rather lament the fact-

In broad brush strokes at least, the most-likely post-war settlement is pretty much the same as the settlement that was on offer before the bloodletting began in earnest on Feb. 24. While Putin was the one who pulled the trigger that fateful day, and thus bears full moral responsibility for all that has happened since, there are many others who could have made different choices in the run-up to the war. Different choices could have resulted in a pre-war settlement that would have been almost indistinguishable from the most likely post-war settlement, minus only the untold death and destruction visited on Ukraine these past weeks and months. In that sense, and only in that limited sense, there’s plenty of blame to go around.

This war could, and should have been avoided. Apart from the arms industry and perhaps OGAM (Russia also a winner here), who exactly wins from this war? Even China, with it's diplomatic sway enhanced- is still affected by the slowdown in world economic growth. A total Lose/ Lose scenario.

[misskit]

^Who wins? Ukraine. They made the choice to defend their country from an invasion by Russia. No matter how many opinions you post, it all boils down to what the Ukrainians want for their future.

[sabang]

If you say so- but it will be a smaller Ukraine.

[misskit]

To be worked out. It will certainly not be decided by someone in the West with their pencil stuck up their nose, waxing philosophical.

[Switch]

Russia under Putin’s direction have failed. The feint and subsequent withdrawal is unbelievable from such a country. When it comes down to it, he, and they, have been found wanting.
Can Putin and Russia learn from those big mistakes and unjustified overconfidence?

Probably not now they are o the back foot militarily and economically

Printing more money will not improve the Russian Army.

[sabang]

The feint and subsequent withdrawal is unbelievable from such a country.

Ritter's analysis tells a totally different story. Up to you what you want to believe- it certainly changes nothing on the ground. I suspect Putin is immune to your admonition, even if he has opened a TD account, but lecture him all you want.

That supposed Russian feint has been described by military experts as stunningly naive. You seem to lack cohesion on both fronts, economic and military.
Sorry you don’t really count on either score.

[sabang]

Personally, I back Ritters knowledge, experience, achievement, seniority and analysis over yours junior.

[pickel]

At least some of the opinion pieces sabang posts show a modicum of contempt for Russia. Shame he can't bring himself to do the same.

[OhOh]

Russia are the ones threatening nuclear war,

A link to a Russian government official confirming your allegation would be useful in supporting your allegation, or failing to do so, confirming your lack of facts to substantiate your post #5999 (Ukraine war mega thread).

An unsubstantiated statement, from a 16% media outlet, is not a fact.

[Troy]

^^ Mid February, Russia conducted military exercises involving nuclear weapons.
At the start of the Ukraine invasion Putin made a speech that implied the use of nuclear weapons against any country that interfered. Three days later he put his nuclear forces on special alert. Nuclear exercises were subsequently carried out using submarines and IBCMs.
In March the Russian FM noted that a ww3 would end up being nuclear.
You can read Putin's speech and the FM speech to confirm. Both were made public and should be easy for you to find.
The exercises in the Barant sea and in Siberia are also public knowledge and easy to find.

You need to put your thinking cap on and come up with reasonable arguments if you want to be taken seriously. Currently you appear to be nothing more than a whack job with a chip on both shoulders.

The Ukraine war from the Western perspective. Notice how the one on the right precedes the one on the left.

When you are going to show contempt for the US and NATO for doing everything it possibly could to get this war started ?

-2014 coup
-Nato, UK, US naval base construction
-bio labs dotted along the border
-supporting Zelenskys desire to get nukes
-zero negotiations from the US on any of these concerns

You clearly don't know what the word "precede" means.

Half of that is utter bullshit and the other half involves a sovereign nations right to their own decisions.

[pickel]

I also criticized the US invasion of Iraq. You didn't. Not once have you or sabang criticized Putin.

[bsnub]

That supposed Russian feint has been described by military experts as stunningly naive.

Because there was no feint, it is total bullshit and just an attempt by Russia to save face in light of a total defeat in the north. Ritter is a pathetic stooge.

Personally, I back Ritters knowledge

Others in the US press and intelligence community do not, which is why he is forced to shill for RT to make a living. He has nowhere else to go as he has no credibility.

Half of that is utter bullshit and the other half involves a sovereign nations right to their own decisions.

Nothing skiddy posts is worth reading, it is just lies and bullshit every time.

[kingwilly]

Such as ABC,

You duplicitous moron.

The ABC is a publicly-owned body that is politically independent and fully accountable, with its charter enshrined in legislation, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation Act 1983.

[sabang]

So State owned, thanks for backing up my point- which does not necessarily mean State controlled. Thanks for proving yourself a total moron- and saving me the trouble.

[pickel]

Such as ABC, BBC & PBS? -

And how many of their commentators are talking about flooding the British Isles with a tsunami from a 100 megaton torpedo launched from a sub? You ignorant fool.

Canadian general captured at Azovstal turned out to be a "big shot"

Strong structure

General Trevor John Cadieu, captured by Russian troops while trying to escape from the cellars of Azovstal, was the commander of the Canadian Ground Forces.



Seated in the catacombs under the Mariupol steel plant "Azovstal" nationalists staged a provocation, trying to hide the Canadian general's attempt to escape. After the capture of a high-ranking foreign soldier by units of the RF Armed Forces, it became clear why so many efforts were made to save him.

According to media reports, the general's name is Trevor Kadieu. Seven months ago, he was appointed to the post of commander of the Canadian Army, but before the inauguration he was involved in a sex scandal. In the harassment that occurred back in 1994, he was accused by a former colleague. The general called the accusations false, but in April 2022 he retired from military service.

Military analysts are confident that the scandalous resignation was a cover for an operation to send an experienced general to help Ukrainian nationalists.

A high-ranking mercenary tried to break out of the encirclement at Azovstal several times. It was for this that the West insisted on humanitarian corridors for the exit of civilians: among them, foreign specialists had to leave the catacombs.

Foreigners fighting for Ukraine are admirable.

As for his sexual misconduct, in Trudeauland, he most likely asked a female co-worker out for a drink.

More Z-anon bullshit.
