romad1 Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 I have my doubts about this level of discord. It seems too crazy. Plus we hear from the Putin apologists that its all going swimmingly according to "the leaks" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gehringer_2 Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Next few weeks in Ukraine will get very interesting. So far AFU seem to be pushing back around Bakhmut, possisibly threatening the RU forces three with encirclement. Since this would be such a huge embarrassment for Putin, MOD, and Wagner, it could also be that it is the perfect feint to draw RU strength away from where the real blow lands... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All my friends who are following every possible event over there are losing their minds waiting for the big push. Its coming. Russia is terrible in all phases of combat. Imagine how terribly they will do trying to have an orderly withdrawal under fire. Fugutaboutit. They don't have anywhere near enough troops to control the territory they have. Once the partisans start setting off IEDs on the lines of withdrawal... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, let me put on my pre-2015 hat: The house organ of the DC establishment does a thing. It does not do that thing in a vacuum. Its like wondering why the NYT covers Trump with credulity. Clearly, they are doing things on behalf of the NY plutocrats who pay their salaries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am legitimately worried I could get fired for opening one of the articles. Bad enough the newsletter subscriptions I have pumping to my email (to avoid using twitter steering me to news) have them.

1984Echoes Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 Conspiracy Theory: Putin poisoned Lukashenko with a radiation pill so when he dies he can move in and take over the country for an easy annexation: https://www.yahoo.com/news/rivals-putin-no-1-ally-180546290.html So who can move in faster once Lukashenko is dead? Democratic Byelorussian and Western forces, or Russian? My money is on the Russians, they're prepared for this, the west is not. Sorry Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya.
