Russia's Armchair Warrior Turns on Ukraine's Rebel Leader - July 9, 2014 - "....Kurginyan, at one point in the video, also lashes out at “armchair loudmouths” who dispute his version of events in Ukraine. As it happens, Kurginyan delivers this message from a couch, seated alongside two automatic rifles, looking very much the poster child of armchair analysis."
I think this moaning about slavyansk is part of possible
snowjob being laid on us.. They retreated when it appeared
they didn’t have to. It is part of suckering in Ukraines
forces, while many of reports of troops on russian side
north by Kharkiv, shows that maybe with Ukraine forces,
which are very, very, small, compared to russia, tied down
by the nutcakes in Donbass, and russia could invade in the
north by Kharkiv, and bag the whole country.
I really think tha putin and his people figure that they
will have most of Ukraine,west of Kyiv even, physically,
and that the Crimea and especially the Donbass diversions
has got Ukraine and the world off balance and looking the
wrong way, with forces and resources tied up in the wrong
place, and ripe for instant takeover by russia
that they can’t stop. The ATO forces in Donbas will
be flanked.Russia figures this will work as it
appears US,EU, Hato, UN won’t care enough to help...Ed
