Sieg67 Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 (edited) Just a couple of small things I read. There have been 15 reported instances or Russian soldiers dressing as civilians and deserting the military. Russian propagandist are having a hard time burying news of Ukraine's latest strides. The main propagandist appeared on TV with bruises on his face. Wonder what happened there. Edited September 9, 2022 by Sieg67 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stories I've been seeing indicate that the Ukrainian version of the DoD knew they had leaks in the East, so they told everyone that they'd be starting an offensive in the South. Interestingly, shortly after that was released, some Russian forces started moving south prior to the Eastern Offensive. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's even an instance of using the dead body of a homeless man to trick the enemy with false information. They put some fake documents on him, some fake personal items and dumped him in a river for the enemy to find.

They left all sorts of equipment behind that is further evidence of a complete route. This wasnt an organized retreat to regroup and counterattack. This was "run like hell or we will die".

Master-Debater131 Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 https://www.reuters.com/article/ukraine-crisis-russia-offensive-idAFKBN2QC09Y Russian nationalists rage after stunning setback in Ukraine " The swift fall of Izium in Kharkiv province was Russia’s worst military defeat since its troops were forced back from the Ukrainian capital Kyiv in March. As Russian forces abandoned town after town on Saturday, Putin was opening Europe’s largest ferris wheel in a Moscow park, while fireworks lit up the sky over Red Square to celebrate the city’s founding in 1147. In an 11-minute-long voice message posted to the Telegram messaging app, Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov, a Putin ally whose troops have been at the forefront of the campaign in Ukraine, dismissed the loss of Izium, a critical supply hub. But he conceded the campaign was not going to plan. “If today or tomorrow changes are not made in the conduct of the special military operation, I will be forced to go to the country’s leadership to explain to them the situation on the ground,” said Kadyrov." Ahhh, now theres a feel good story to start the week if I have ever read one. Russian apologists are running out of excuses for just how poorly they are performing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The territorial shifts were one of Russia's biggest reversals since its forces were turned back from Kyiv in the earliest days of the nearly seven months of fighting, yet Moscow signalled it was no closer to agreeing a negotiated peace. "Ukraine has turned the tide in its favour, but the current counter-offensive will not end the war," US think tank Institute for the Study of War tweeted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master-Debater131 Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 It really does look like we may be in the early stages of a complete and total collapse of the Russian army in Ukraine. The speed at which Ukraine is advancing is remarkable. And the Russians are simply abandoning anything and everything in their attempts to flee. You can also tell just how bad things are going for the Russians by the increasing silence from their apologists around the world. Even the most hardcore propagandists within Russia are having a hard time spinning this. There is a long way to go, and who knows what sort of depravity Putin might unleash as he gets further backed into a corner, but it sure looks good for Ukraine right now. We just have to keep up our support and funding of the UA so they can route the Russians. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master-Debater131 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Russia is increasingly resorting to terrorism as they lose the war. The attacks on and near the nuclear plant are just an escalation in their terrorism. At this point I think Russia would love for another Chernobyl event to happen in Ukraine. if they cant have the land, no one can. Russian propagandists are also increasing their nuclear rhetoric. Lots of talk about deploying tactical nuclear weapons to turn the war. Theres even some talk of using nukes against the UK and other NATO nations as a way to stop their support of Ukraine. These people are totally deranged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
