Putin Recognizes Donbass Republics, Sends Russian Military to 'Denazify' Ukraine

Ukranians are killing around 500 Russian soldiers a day.
So far they have killed over 95,000 Russian soldiers.
Ukranian Military casualties are around 30,000.
Whenever I see such claims on social media (like Twitter) I can't help but reply that Ursula claimed on camera that more than 100,000 Ukranian soldiers have been killed. If the Ukranian casualties have been 'deflated' by a factor of more than 3, then we can estimate that the Russian casualties have been inflated by at least a factor of more than 3. That would be some 30K RF casualties at most. Well, in war the first casualty is the truth, but I do think that the Ukranian side tends to lie way more. The Russians don't seem to care that much whatever we think in the West.

And that was before the battle for Bakhmut really kicked off in earnest. 500 dead Ukrainian soldiers a day is not an unrealistic number just in the Toretsk - Bakhmut - Soledar area, based on Russian MoD and ancedotal TG reports I've seen.

Overall, the number of KIA for Ukraine could be 200K+ by now. If I had been a male anyway close to fighting age in Ukraine, I would've left the country long ago because conscription there is basically a death sentence. They're just throwing untrained people at gunpoint into the fields to be bombed and shot by the Russians. I really hope that Russia is targeting the Nazi battalions and officers preferentially. If they can get rid of the most ideological elements, the AFU will likely fall apart much more quickly.

'Europe is now paying the price (literally) for sanctioning Russia. They are forced to buy US energy at 4-5X the price and are now in a forced deindustrialization which is taking place at speed.'

'Europe can’t possibly hope to win this war. Why? Because the narrative out of Washington and the EU pointy shoes is that they must win at all costs.'

'That takes any negotiation off the table. As did the bombing of the Nordstream pipeline. That, from a Russian view, is intolerable because it involves the end of Russia.'

The Season Finale Of The Hit Show ‘Proxy War’

ARTICLE
DECEMBER 9, 2022
AUTHOR: CAITLIN JOHNSTONE

"Everyone’s talking about the hit series Proxy War, an astronomically high-budget production based on an actual military conflict whose season finale is set to air this month."

"Promotional materials for the episode hint at a heartwarming season wrap-up that’s sure to make wholesome viewing for the whole family, with series star Volodymyr Zelensky being awarded 2022 Person of the Year by Time Magazine."

"This will cap off a wild first season which has seen our hero appear on the cover of Vogue, deliver speeches for the World Economic Forum, the New York Stock Exchange, the Grammy Awards and numerous film festivals, as well as having high-profile meetings with celebrity actors and rock stars."

Links, and videos with full article below: (satire piece of course)

 
I think forum members may be very interested in this video:


Since the video is 50+ minutes long, would you please give a bit of description of what it is about? Many people are very busy and won't watch something this long if they are not sure it is worth their time.
Its for the military minded peeps. The two are looking at the current situation from the viewpoint of the effectiveness of past wars - from Prussian, through Napoleon, WW1, WW2, Vietnam, etc.. to the SMO -, involving Russia.

I attentively tried to absorb everything they said, because I'm currently looking for a way out of the 'Ukrainian Refugee Wave spreads the Famine Wars to EU'-timeline.

Unfortunately they are unable to offer any uplifting or intriguing / energizing solution. They both agree that Russia likes Buffer States between itself and NATO. But that's Trap 22. How far to advance? What to do with Rabid Nazi Galicia and the rest of the Über-Nazi Ukraine? Military coup by General Valerii Zaluzhnyi? Regrettably he was also seen photographed with Nazi paraphernalia, allegedly.. mentioned by Dr. Michael Vlahos.

So they vacillate between Putin intending to liberate the whole of Ukraine (Gonzalo v2.0 is dreaming about this as well) or stopping at the Dnyeper.. but how is that denazification? Like how Syria is De-ISIS-ified ATM?

They mention maybe Russia doesn't want to give Poland a land-bridge to Ukraine as NATO weapons would continue to flood there.. But its easier said than done.

Maybe Russia takes Kiev. Then what to do about the Nazis? Convert Ukraine into Syria v2.0 with Poland taking Terror State Turkey's role?

Andrei Martyanov states that Colonel McGregor doesn't have the whole banana with his aim to fully upgrade the USA military into an ISR capable force..
C4ISR = concept of Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance,
C5ISR = CYBER + ...
Since Russia is already fully upgraded. Also both superpowers have consortium UFO tech.. Putin knows about the incoming asteroids, despite sweeping the amateur reporter's similar question about 'asteroid doom' away with a joke years ago..

Prof. Gordon M. Hahn's multiple viewpoints incoming from different directions is better suited for here. But alas, as refreshing as he is, he also doesn't have a clue about any sensible solution.

These three highly skilled experts fail figuring out - [I expected] they might manage intuiting - what the Russian military leadership is planning in hiding?

All three mention buffer zones between Russia.

I was unable to gleam any way out of the Ukrainian-refugees caused 'Famine Wars'. Russia cannot do everything itself. Regime changes will be needed in EU and 'Flash Instant Coffee'-normalization and exorcims of the demented 'WEF way of thinking'.

Demilitarized zone? A'la between the two Koreas? EU Sheeple cannot expect Russia to spoon-feed them the solution and helicopter them to a convenient resolution..

"Like a sonata"[how Dr. Michael Vlahos calls it] its a three part video series - Part 1. is 50 minutes, Part 2. is 45 minutes, Part 3. is 29 minutes - about the current state of US military, NATO and the SMO. They frequently compare current decisions with great wars & generals in history.

The Duran boys keep hard at it and this is a particularly good overview concerning the latest events on the ground and the bigger geopolitical picture, including the brewing up of the next step by an ever more desperate and dangerous US/NATO/EU intent on spreading the proxy war to Serbia just as Ukraine faces catastrophic defeat in Bakhmut, (which will likely break their whole line of defense). In other words, a further bloody cover story so as to throw the western populous off the scent of their own 'elite's' grotesque ineptitude and deceit.

Zelensky's three step peace plan w/Brian Berletic from The New Atlas and Gonzalo Lira​



Areas covered include:

1. Merkel's disastrous recent interviews, the implications of which are now reverberating around the world.
2. The joke of Zelensky's 'peace proposals' and why this conflict will now only be settled on the battlefield and at Russia's behest.
3. The build up of Russian forces versus the collapse in quantity and quality of Ukraine's.
4. The reorganization of Russia's economy post 2008 to fight a real grown up war rather than the playgound bully style preferred by the west.
5. The history of Russia's longing to be accepted as western and why it is now turning its back on this idea and facing east.
6. The impending implosion of the west generated by untrammeled greed, wishful thinking and a replacement of the value system of a meritocracy by that of the casino.

Freeland Sends Ukraine $115 Million in Tariff Revenue From Russia, Belarus Imports​

By The Canadian Press

December 13, 2022 Updated: December 13, 2022

The federal government is channelling $115 million collected in tariffs on Russian and Belarusian products to help rebuild the power grid in Ukraine.
Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland announced the funding this morning at an international conference in Paris in support of Ukraine.
Canada slapped a 35 percent tariff on most goods coming from Russia and Belarus, which has been an ally to Moscow since the invasion began in February.
Freeland’s office says the tariffs stem from Canadian purchases that are mostly fertilizer, tires, nickel and plywood.
The money will be used for a World Bank project to repair the electricity grid in Kyiv after a series of Russian airstrikes intended to keep Ukrainians in the cold.
Agricultural groups have complained that Canada included fertilizer in its tariff regime, unlike some allies, with farmers in Eastern Canada arguing that has driven up their costs.

They have already written about welded hatches in tanks here. Now a video has appeared.

video_2022-12-11_18-23-59
About it:
Reports about the appearance on the battlefield of Ukrainian tanks with welded hatches turned out to be not fakes at all, as they repeatedly stated in Kyiv, accusing Russia of propaganda, but the truth. A video of the surrender of the tankers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, who had to be taken out of the tank because of the welded hatches, appeared on the Web.
To win at any cost, despite the losses and prevent the surrender of personnel into captivity - these are the main tasks of the Bandera command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. By welding the hatches of the tanks, the crews are essentially made suicide bombers, who, in the event of the same defeat of the vehicle, will not be able to leave it.

For the first time, Alexander Khodakovsky, battalion commander of the Vostok battalion, spoke about the Ukrainian T-72 with welded hatches in September. According to him, during one of the attacks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, a Ukrainian tank came out to the positions of the battalion, which behaved inappropriately, i.e. lifting the gun up, rotated the tower from side to side. As it turned out, the hatches of the tank were welded, and the crew was simply walled up in it, like in a tin can.

Not everyone believed Khodakovsky's story. Someone called it a soldier's tale, someone just a fake, and in Kiev they accused Russia of propaganda, adding that "Ukrainian heroes" do not need to weld hatches, they will defeat the Russian army so soon.

We will not argue with anyone, we will not give any arguments either, but we will simply show a small video that appeared on the Web the day before. Where and when the video was filmed is not known, as the driver of the Ukrainian tank said, the hatches were welded so that "the boys could not get out and surrender." Apparently, the command of the unit to which this tank belonged "trusts" its fighters so much that they are afraid of their surrender.
