I predicted this, and now its happened.

Oh yeah, it hasn’t been “recognized” yet, but it will be.

There are reports that Zelinsky is drafting women.  You don’t do that unless you’re out of fighting-age men who can actually fight.  Note that soymen who runs away or spends his time buttfucking and/or preening can’t actually fight, and you must have people who can.  When you even contemplate drafting women you’ve made a statement that you’re out of competent fighting men.  This is similar to what the NVA did after Tet and what Iran did, but both grabbed literal boys, shoved rifles in their hands and sent them out to die.  Which they did, in size.  The war was over in that case both times, but not yet admitted.  In the former case we literally walked away from a win thanks to Cronkite and the stupidity of the American people buying his bullshit.  Thus it is here, except this time its just money, much of which has been siphoned off by defense contractors and the families of politicians — like fuckface Biden.

Russia has employed a nasty and very effective strategy which our so-called “punditry” has entirely failed to understand.  Putin’s folks lob artillery shells at the other guys; anything within 10-20 miles of their weapons gets pulverized.  With satellite and UAV targeting and fire direction these are wildly effective — and cheap.  He can do this all day long for almost no money.  He blasts away until your force is cut in half, creating a no-go zone where if you stick your head up to try to return fire it gets blown up and then slowly does a pincer on one of the pieces, making the perimeter ever-smaller until they either surrender or are all dead.  Then he goes after the next one, and so on...........more..........
