That's why Russian military are so pessimistic about their perspective in Ukraine. Consider Strelkov. For 29 days Russia didn't achieve strategic success on any directions

"Girkin, a self-described Russian nationalist, was charged by Ukrainian authorities with terrorism.[8] He has been sanctioned by the European Union for his leading role in the armed conflict in eastern Ukraine.[9] Ukrainian authorities have called him a retired colonel of the GRU (Russia's external military intelligence organisation).[9][10][11]"

This clip was aired on Russian televsion news, I'm not sure which channel or initial airdate. He's a former GRU or FSB officer, who stirred up trouble in Eastern Ukraine, in 2014 (hmm...). Now he is saying on Russian TV, under current censorship, that the "Special Operation" is running into trouble.
Comments and thoughts?
Sure, Putin’s arrogance and Russian military ineptitude, corruption, and failure is the only thing that might save us from the ineptitude, corruption, and failure of Biden and rest of the democrat cheats in power in DC.
Gotta go to the chalkboard and update the number of times Russia has been totally destroyed today.
I think the count is at 9, but there’s still time to add more to the “Russia’s been defeated again!” count for the day.
There is one major warning in this war for America.
Both Russia and the USA used to be great at long wars. Even if we lost at first eventually the massive output from our industry would overwhelm any opponent.
The problem is that Russia like us has outsourced all our industry to China.
The USSR for decades led the world in steel production. Now China’s steel industry is 10 times larger than Russia’s.
Newer products like semiconductors Russia doesn’t make at all.
Russia seems to be plodding along towards their intermediate strategic goal of dividing Ukraine into East/West along the Dnieper. Is it messy? Of course. The Red Army never cared a whit about the number of dead soldiers.
this war has exposed Russia for the has been that it is, and honestly always was.
The only thing Russia ever had going for it was scientists it got from Germany after the WW2, and stolen nuclear technology knowledge it got from traitors here in the US.
Russia is pathetic. Practically a 3rd world country after this.
Reagan always said they were a parasite country that had to suck the life forces from other countries to survive. And we are in 2022 and they are still doing that, invading the Ukraine under phony pretense justvto steal resource rich areas.
Sleep well.

So do you have any comments responsive to this thread, or do you just robotically post you belief in Putin’s Cunning Plan(TM)?
Do think the story is false, and Strelkov/Girkin did not really say this?
Do you think he said it, but he doesn’t believe it?
Do you think he said it, and believes it, but believe him to be wrong because you still believe in Putin’s Cunning Plan(TM)?
Do you even know who Strelkov/Girkin is?
“Proper Planning.....”
They were practically one before this too. A failed state.
Before the Revolution, Russia was pretty much 90% peasants.
Like we should give a damn about anything a Krishnaraj Rao has to say.
No - of course, like you, I completely believe - without question - what the Dem-Media-Complex allows us to read, see and hear.
I’m just glad Biden and the Complex is not allowing anything contrary to their narrative to be easily accessed!
We got too much to think about already without having to run into misinformation that wcould lead us astray from the path!!
Like you, I’m thankful for not having to worry myself about details that could be contrary!!!
“Like we should give a damn about anything a Krishnaraj Rao has to say.”

But...but...but if you can’t trust some random video on Youtube, who can you trust for THE TRUTH???
“Ya, but 3rd world country.”

Yeah! And how they, after being around for only 40-some years , be the first in space? I mean, how primitive is that?? Whippersnappers - harrumph!!
#2: How unfortunately true.
I know, you’re right.
I just kinda blurted that out (channeling FJB). My bad, I guess ?
Russia was overly optimistic and unrealistic in their planning, and ignored the consequences of endemic corruption in the military. Now they are paying for it.
Russia planned for a fifteen day operation, than plan failed in the first fire days. This is a war where the outcome is not predetermined like both Iraqi invasions. Either side can win. What is hoped is that between ineptitude and heavy losses on the Russian side, increased aid on the Ukraine side, Ukraine can turn this around.
Girkin is a "former" GRU/FSB operative, saying on Russian TV, under Russian censorship, the war is going badly. That means what ever is going on is not good for Russia.
