Last video is from februari which makes him pretty off the mark. The dnipro runs next to kiev as well. Which would make him comically delusional. In a month russia is lucky to have taken bakhmut and avdivka. Let alone sloviansk/kramatorsk or anywhere near the dnipro

https://www.rand.org/pubs/perspectives/PE198.html They never spend a second replying or defending their obvious lies. This is deliberate. 1. They know its undefendable bullshit anyway 2. Better to bring up another lie or half-truth or whataboutism. Goal is that some of this stuff “sticks”...

But germany was able to trade. Russia top 10 imports and top 12 export in 2021. China top 1 and top 10. Germany imported 40% if its energy needs from russia till 2022. Germany is a european lead in education and research. Germany spent a ridiculous low amount of money on defence and as...

Yes..germany under usa influence turned out terrible!!! Returned as an economic powerhouse and with one of the highest freedom and human rights/development indexes. Much better was the soviet umbrella! Where germany would have turned into another Belarussia! With a sprinkle of rape by russian...

Depends on ukranian will to resist really. Afghanistan showed that you cant just pump money and weapons and expect the unwilling to fight. ukranians however…held the lines being outgunned 10 to 1 in artillery mid 2022. They held the lines in bakhmut grinder. Without morale breaking, without...

Even with these 75.000 training up elsewhere. ukraine had managed to stop russias winter offensive. So no. Its not an all or nothing gamble. If it fails it will more likely lead to frontlines stabilizing as they are. With attrition continuing for both but both sides not dominant enough to...

Day 394 of Americas 3 day special operation against Mexico. America threathens to use Nukes if mexico dares to try and retake Texas. How russia as a superpower has fallen really…..

Good let them burn through all their material. Then the bear has lost its fangs and neighbouring countries can finally relax

Russia overtook the west? I have no problem with a more multipolar world with china and india rising up. Its inevitable when these massive populations are developing. And I am no fan of USA anyway. But russia? Russia will turn into the junior partner to china. Its army crushed in...
