Biden’s reality check in Europe

The Russian General Staff disclosed on Friday that the hyped up Ukrainian Armed Forces, trained by the NATO and the US, have sustained crippling losses: Ukrainian air force and air defence is almost completely destroyed, while the country’s Navy no longer exists and about 11.5% of the entire military personnel have been put out of action. (Ukraine doesn’t have organised reserves.)

According to the Russian General Staff’s deputy head Colonel General Sergey Rudskoy, Ukraine has lost much of its combat vehicles (tanks, armoured vehicles, etc.), one-third of its multiple launch rocket systems, and well over three-fourths of its missile air defence systems and Tochka-U tactical missile systems.

Sixteen main military airfields in Ukraine have been put out of action, 39 storage bases and arsenals destroyed (which contained up to 70% of all stocks of military equipment, materiel and fuel, and more than 1 million 54000 tons of ammunition.)

Interestingly, following the intense high-precision strikes on the bases and training camps, foreign mercenaries are leaving Ukraine. During the past week, 285 mercenaries escaped into Poland, Hungary and Romania. Russian forces are systematically destroying the Western shipment of weapons.

Most important, the mission to liberate Donbass is about to be accomplished. Simply put, the main objectives of the first phase of the operation have been achieved.

Western Media Fallout...

THE WEST’S PROPAGANDA WAR IS THE END OF DEMOCRACY
Vladimir Putin has become “Putler”, something halfway between Putin and Hitler. For the less aggressive, the Russian president is Vlad the Mad. “There has never been a genocide against the pro-Russian populations in Donbass. Nazi formations do not exist and have never existed in Ukraine and there has been no massacre in Odessa. Putin threatens the world and must be stopped.” Western media is treating the Ukrainian crisis as if it were selling soap bars with TV commercials. The Western media world is fighting a war against truth. There is an official dogma and anyone who claims otherwise is a heretic and must be isolated. Any evaluation, any information that collides with the Washington consensus is branded as fake news.

Western Media Have Lost The Plot With Their Ukraine Coverage
Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine on February 24, Western mainstream media outlets have put professionalism in the trash and began to serve as fully fledged propaganda outlets for the Ukrainian military and NATO’s cause.

Russia only has 2 weeks left.

Be on the lookout for Victory Day, May 9th!


It will be earlier than that.


Do you at least know what May 9th is and who set it? :wink:
:lol: :lol: :lol:


Oh yeh, I know what it is.

Victory Day when Hitler fell. Hitler started the war by invading Poland.

Russia has invaded Ukraine so the comparison that Russia is somehow justified in Invading Ukraine because its overrun by Nazis (not true btw) is FLAUD.

Don't ever think you are smarter than me. You are a pauper.

I think you will find that the majority of the cars in support of Pootin would be Russians living in Greece, and much of the pro Ukraine supporters would be Ukrainian. Although, Ukraine is more likely to attract support from people completely unconnected to both Russia and Ukraine because of the war crimes and illegal invasion which is an affront to peace and international law.

Putin enjoys a worldwide love like no other politician in the history of politics!


... and on the same road there were others holding Ukrainian flags.
Demonstrating for either side is ridiculous imo. Both Cypriots and Greeks have our own problems to deal with, let aside the possible clashes between Ukranians and Russians on our soil.


For once you say something smart.

And at the same token, Cyprus is an EU country and must tow the official line - in support of Ukraine which has been invaded by a foreign aggressor.

Secondly, just reading Kikapu's post, about propaganda. The US never pressured the EU or insisted on the EU restricting Russian Media. Russian Media is not restricted in the US, Canada or Australia. You are able to have access to ALL Russian media in these 3 countries. The EU has made its own decision to take the sanctions to an extra level by restricting Russian media. In the USA, no such step has occurred so Americans have unrestricted access to everything at this point in time.

Some private corporates however have taken their own action independent of the USG, and probably contravene the US Bill of Rights. But in any case, Facebook does restrict information that is deemed to be Fake News or distressing to the consumer. And Google does derank Russian sources but you can use other browsers and you can specifically search the news provider by name.

So US can't be blamed for any action the EU has taken. And yes, you do not have the same protections in the EU for a free press, and for free speech like in the US, or even in Australia and Canada. But the EU is still 1000% better than Russia.

It can't be the Ukrainians as they have no Air Force.

Must be a Russian False Flag.

They still have some air power mostly helicopters and air defense systems. The Russian position after the first incident was that it was an accident on site caused by human error. The Ukrainians refused any comments.
Up to that point there were videos on the internet showing Ukrainian helicopters doing the attack flying at low altitude.
Hence up to that point nobody could be sure of what actually happened.
However now we have a second incident.
Use your brain if you have any.
