Well Speedy you and the globalists ought to be very happy. Russia has inflicted a far more grievous wound on itself than anything the Ukrainians have done or will do. Russia, which has been a very serious nationalist entity and roadblock to the new “liberal globalist (socialist) world order”, has shown the world that its previously feared conventional military is not the juggernaut once thought. NATO, the sword of globalism, now realizes that the Russian military is not capable of significant offensive operations. The Chinese who have always coveted Russia’s rich ,underpopulated Far Eastern/Pacific territories and Siberia, also realize that Russia cannot defend them with conventional forces. Without nuclear weapons, Russia would soon be much smaller.

The globalists are gloating that nationalistic Russia has been essentially neutralized. Next target is the US. They may have been born here but they loathe American independence, power, liberty and its heritage. They hate the 4th of July and have openly admitted it. The only day they will celebrate and revere is the day the US cedes its independence and makes itself a cog in the new globalist social world order.

So enjoy the 4th and Russia’s self inflicted catastrophic strategic defeat. However if the Democratic Party is not thoroughly destroyed, there may not be many more 4th of July holidays to celebrate.

The problem is that the Russian regime has nothing in common with American conservatism. It is an epitome of unlimited government, the opposite of the vision of the Founding Fathers.

The WEFs Great Reset requires chaos to trigger it.

Putin played his part by invading Ukraine - all of the world leaders are part of the show since Wuhan. Putin and Xi are following their roles, as are the rest of BRICS.

Your attempt to portray Russia as opposing the WEF is quite naive at best, propagandistic is more likely.

Appreciated and understood. However Russia, as it was once perceived, was a roadblock to globalist dreams and intent. Despite its own repressive government and practices, it oddly made the globalist goal of subverting American independence and liberty far more difficult.

So the Russians are down to their last 12,000 tanks?

The last one will be July 4 2024, the year Biden wins his second term and the year the Dems hold super-majority in both Houses. What? You thought the Dems would relinquish their total control of the US election system?

Excerpt:
“Russians have 2,800 tanks and 13,000 other armored vehicles (reconnaissance and infantry fighting vehicles) in units with another 10,000 tanks and 8,500 armored vehicles in storage.”

The Russian began the war with 2,500 operational tanks in all of Russia - that’s all - the rest are rusted hulks with parts missing, stripped, cannibalized stored in the open air in the Far East. Which the above quote of huge numbers in storage belies their condition. There are images of the storage yards - and they are not pretty; only a few have some covered storage, the rest have none. Tanks have to be maintained on weekly basis in covered storage.

A few can be repaired and retrofitted at great expense like the antique T-62s that were given to the DNR/LNR and are completely expendable, like their crews.

The Soviet Army tank count you see is good only for the Soviet Army. Unfortunately, this is the Russian army and the two are not the same.

The Russia’s only tank factory recently cranked out a handful of T-72Ms, before they ran out of Swedish-made high quality ball bearings. Russian and Chinese ball bearings are garbage barely fit for a cheap auto.

Ukraine: military situation update with maps, July 3, 2022
(’Orc’ is associated with the various hoards of 13th century Mongol invaders, as well as LOTR evil villains)

War in Ukraine
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP2QApi8G2TKc8NZmeDWSUg/videos

Artillery (key to success in this war), fuller explanation of Orc military structure, other Bonus articles - see previous postings in “Attack on Europe” (FR title search).

(Numbered printed material below - Some of the items below may be out of date, and not updated yet)

••denotes transcribed dialogue.

———————————————————————————————————————
••Grain (wheat) supply from Russia
Using a lot of wheat seed from Europe ... why they grew so much. European GM seeds have about 30% more yield than Russian produced seed. With sanctions, Russia will not get those seeds, so wiped up as major grain exporter, and will disappear as a wheat exporter as a whole. Will return to Soviet position where it was barely self-supporting.

Russian ship with Ukraine grain was stopped by Turks bound for Syria or elsewhere in ME. Ukrainian wheat has to be blended with Russian wheat to be sold but will be an expensive proposition. Ukraine farmers in southern regions held by the Orcs will get dirt cheap price for their wheat from them and so will cut their production or grow something else.

Ukraine increased rail transport by 70% so the rest of the Ukraine farmers have no incentive to produce. Ukraine will fall as grain exporter.

••Russian rocket strikes
Generally relevant points. Orcs hit more civilian targets because they are using X-22s, old Soviet Navy rockets designed to hit ships, was developed in 60s. Very primitive. Made to hit large moving metal targets. Caliber missiles are used up. Factory makes make 240 missiles year. They were using then directly from the factory.

••Orlan-10 overview
Why it is cheap deadly effective weapon - open secret what Orc do to squeeze UA and capture more territory. Wings made from carbon plastid hard to detect by radar. Gasoline powered. Flies for 16 hours and can fly in cold to -30C. Small, light, cheap to make. Distance signal can travel 120km to Msta 2C19 Long Range SPA seek out high value targets like all the western artillery: HIMARS, Krabs, Caesars, etc. (Edit: which are not focused on Orc LR artillery, but on tactical propaganda targets, like ammo dumps, islands, and bases.)

HIMARS, Krabs, Caesar, Msta 2C19’s are examples of the backbone of armies: there job is not to take out soldiers, tanks, vehicles, ammo dumps etc, but to take out the enemy’s backbone and other strategic targets. Once the backbone is destroyed, the rest is just mopping up by the troops. (Edit: what the Orcs are doing and whether UA is not doing.)

Actually cost is US$6-7,000 with equipment another $20,000. So $40,000 for the unit, The remainder is profit for manufacture and RGF. Make 200-300 a year - used in wide range of areas, not just military. Flies up to 5000m (3 miles) altitude so is expensive to shoot down.

Excellently engineered product for the job. Catapult launched and parachute landed, super easy to disassemble and so to repair - can cannibalize broken ones to make a new one; parts from different commercial manufacturers are easily interchangeable from the engine to the electronics. No military grade parts. Coke a cola cap can be used for gas tank cap. Expendable UAV.

UA wants to buy UAV for $450,000 and is electric which is too expensive, flies too low, won’t work in cold - among other deficits.

Orlon-10 has direct integration with Orc artillery in real time, artillery had digital pad and the new numbers are quickly punched in - 46sec to 1m 15sec to correct fire. (Edit: there’s no Western equivalent.) It takes an average of 38 shells to hit target - is no problem for Orcs; Orc artillery is designed to work this way. Saturation is the method so with UAV and quick responses, this system becomes very effective without specialized shells.

———————————————————————————————————————
Summary: No major changes.
Key areas:
- Izyum bridgehead: no changes. -
Popasna area: Ukrainian troops are trying to establish new frontline after retreat.
- Svitlodarsk area: no changes.
- Donetsk West: no changes
- Kherson bridgehead: no changes.

1. Kharkiv: Russian forces captured villages Dementivka and Rubizhne.
••Some progress by Orcs

2. Izyum bridgehead. No changes.

3. Popasna area: It’s unclear where the new frontline goes at this point, very likely that Ukrainian troops retreated all the way to Siversk.
••Orcs have again possibility of flank attacks and encirclement. Again UA will continued to hold on for political reasons.

4. Svtilodarsk area: No changes.

5. West of Donetsk: Avdiyivka and Maryinka. No changes.

6. Vugledar: No changes.

7. Velyka Novosilka-Gulyapole stretch of frontline. No changes.

8. Kherson bridgehead: No changes.
