“The initial leaks from “US officials” seemed to suggest they were neutral, and claimed it was an “internal matter”.”
LOL, if Zelensky wants to take a leak he needs to send a cable to the Neocons first.
It’s clear to me that even the NeoCons have given up on Ukraine. They know they have lost, and they are now doing the exit strategy.
Maybe if the Ukrainians start fighting amongst themselves, the NeoCons can use it as an excuse to pull the plug.
If they thought Ukraine could keep going, Zelensky would go the way of the Diems, Zalukhny woud have got his 500K troops (including deportations from the West) and the USA would run the rest of its shell inventory down to zero.
The NeoCons not forcing the 500K additional draftees is about the only good news we have had in this war.
It means this slaughter is nearly over.
