Stoplying: It feels like the last kick of a dying horse. The desperation of this move shows that Ukraine has lost the war and zelensky and NATO know it. Their media is in full blown propaganda right now.
This move is good for zelensky in the short term (he's become the hero of the media once again) but this move is bad for Ukraine in the short term and the long term. You're right. Every sane thinking person knows the Kursk incursion is not sustainable for the long-term. What the coke sniffer is trying to achieve is still baffling to many because it makes no strategy sense. Except that they are actually going for the Kursk nuclear power plant as a way to have some leverage. Otherwise, this incursion that's now becoming a suicide mission doesn't make any logical or common sense. |

Stoplying: I don't think it is deliberate. But it is a calculated risk. The Russian military knew it were a possibility and calculated the risk, they made up plans in case it happens and concluded it would be a bad deal for Ukraine. Ukraine made the move, the Russians executed the plans prepared for this eventuality. You should study game theory a little bit. The endgame will tell. But, I know after this, Ukraine will never be the same again. |

Ska333ko: ❗The Russian army has "come very close" to the city of Pokrovsk in the DPR
The head of the local administration, Sergei Dobryak called on residents to evacuate, as the Russian military is "a little more than 10 km from the outskirts of the city".
Earlier Ukrainian soldiers from the Pokrovsk front told Politico that after the start of the Kursk operation, the situation for them worsened.
⚡Ukraine will pay a very high price for the Kursk adventure!
This is exactly what I was saying.... The Russians deliberately allowed the Kursk fiasco to unravel. Majority of the fronts are now collapsing with speed because Ukraine has moved most of their best fighting force to the Sumy region from where the Kursk offensive was carried out. Now, the man on Coke would be doubling down to keep the current PR narrative going on the media that, they're fighting Russians inside Russia, whereas, his defense front lines deep in Ukraine are collapsing much easier than before. There is a reason why Elensky is a comedian. Pathetic. |

Vl3ly: 🇷🇺🇺🇦⚡- Ukrainian Commander-In-Chief, Oleksandr Syrskyi, has transferred the 128th Brigade from Volchans'k (Kharkov direction) to the Pokrovsk sector.
Russian forces have captured 37 sqkm of area in the Pokrovsk direction in less than 48 hours. I love the way the Russians simply focused on their quest in the Kharkov and Nicholaiev directions, refusing to pull troops from the south to attack the Ukrainian Kursk suicide mission grouping currently running amok over there. What they thought or expected to be a distraction for the Russians, is now slowly turning to be a blessing in disguise because the Ukrainian sham offensive in Kursk means less men to defend from the Russian attacks on most of the fronts. The Russians are now taking territories at much easier speed compared to the square meters they were taking before the Ukronazi Kursk suicide mission.
Now, it's making more sense. One Russian artillery man told a news source that the Russian authorities got wind of the planned Ukrainian Kursk incursion before it happened. The fact that they still allowed it to happen speaks volume. And when you consider how they're responding to it (tacitly instead of frantically), one tend to believe what the artillery man said. But, what is the Russian end game in this? Is it to lure Ukro troops from their defense lines and make the Russian objectives of taking targeted territories more attainable? Or to form another meat grinder deep inside Russia, which would be easier than Bahkmuth because the Ukros would have huge problem supplying their units in Kursk once the Russians turned around to face them squarely? Or is Russia purposely encouraging this Kursk incursion to drain Ukraine of its remaining best fighting force and then open another front? Russia still has a huge force sitting in Belarus and another in the Zaporozhia direction. Whatever the endgame might be, one thing is certain, Ukraine will never come out of Kursk in good shape. |

BoldBrainz: Mr WriterrNig, your thread is becoming a beehive of low-brained toxicity.
A decent measure of us didn't sign up for these juvenile shenanigans when we took an interest to the proceedings here but it's becoming obvious that there's a disturbing lack of order herein.
Either you call the attention of the requisite moderating channels or we'll opt for individual cleansing measures. I cannot wake up to a hectic society on a daily and come online to the repugnant drama of children shoving threats and delinquent behaviour down the throats of everyone.
We are not animals and it is only fitting we all endeavour to not act likewise. You spoke my mind. It's a real shame seeing what is going now on this thread that once upon a time was a sane gathering for sound, intellectual and logical discourse. Now, we have untrained, immature kids ruining this thread. I don't blame them perse, I blame some of us here that is giving them the attention they wanted. Very sad. |

Stoplying: Your own opinion quotes an entire sentence which is not yours. It is academically more ethical to give credit to where you got the sentence from. 1. Ukrainian military being in Russia is of no relevance, this is a war, and Russia is applying attrition strategy. Ukrainian soldiers in Kursk is to the military advantage of Russia. You seem to be focused on PR like zelensky while you should be focused on strategy. 2. Russia has always been kind in geopolitics and Warfare, it is their tradition, they even treated the Nazis with kindness, they treated Finland with kindness after ww2, they treated Germany with kindness and trust in 1991, they treated Galicia with kindness and trust in 1991. Russia trusted the USA in 1991. Russia always obeys agreements and gives trust to people who (after the test of time ) do not obey agreements and don't deserve trust. I think that that is changing now. It has nothing to do with Putin, it is russian culture which they need to change. 3. Russia seems to always be taken by surprise when its adversaries break all conventions and do things like supporting or enabling or ordering terrorist attacks or directly doing terrorist attacks. Russia needs to have a better understanding of the fact its foe don't follow rules. But Russia has a little historical inferiority complex which makes it such that Russia always imagines it needs to prove that it is not a savage nation to others while Russia always expects its foes to be as civilised as Hollywood claims. Factually postulated |

For some reasons, I find this Ukrainian incursion into the Kursk region as historically interesting. The Battle of Kursk, if we can recall, was the largest tank battle ever fought in history, involving about 5-6,000 tanks, 2 million troops, and 4,000 aircraft. It marked the decisive end of the German offensive capability on the Eastern Front and paved the way for the mighty Soviet offensives of 1944–1945.
Now, Ukraine and so-called NATO mercenaries are in Kursk....?
He that the gods want to destroy they first drive mad.
The cosmic order is definitely planning something sinister for Ukraine and the west. History always repeat itself. |

Vic2023: 🔴 About 30 Ukrainian DRG officers tried to break into the Belgorod region through the Kolotilovka checkpoint
⚫️ Russian border guards eliminated half of the militants, the rest fled to the territory of Independence.
Earlier it was reported that in the border area, the “Severyans” and the approaching reserves, together with the Russian Aerospace Forces, artillery and drones, stopped attempts to break through mobile groups of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in armored vehicles into the settlements of Tolpino, Zhuravli and Obshchiy Kolodez in the Kursk region. Four armored personnel carriers (three of them US-made Strykers), seven armored combat vehicles and two cars were destroyed.
In total, the Ukrainian Armed Forces lost at least 1,500 people and several hundred units of armored and special equipment.
In the area of the city of Lebedin, Sumy region, three launchers were hit and the AN/MPQ-65 rada... This is the most suicidal and stupidest PR stunt the Ukros has undertaken so far since the war began. It is stupid because at the end, they cannot hold those territories. It is suicidal because majority of those Ukrainian reservists will die on Kursk soil. There is a reason why so many young Ukrainian keep running away from the country. When you have a leader who believes in comic-tragedy, decisions like these would continue to emerge despite Ukraine losing more and mote territories. |

Americans fear Russians more than Russians fear them. Russia is like their Nightmares, for instance check most of their movies and video games. They always put Russians on the bad side to tell you how much they fear Russians and eager to defeat them.
If not why does Nato exist? 32 Nations against 1. Be playing you don't know Russians you think its bloated american kids that can withstand 1 vs 1 fight.

If that happens, the chaos that would break out in the US would result in massive loss of lives and properties. Unfortunately, there is another logical way for them to defeat Trump. They either kill him or rig him out. That failed assassination attempt has not only galvanized Trump's supporter base but has also opened the eyes of many sitting on the sidelines to become more sympathetic to the former president. Trump is now leading in almost all of the swing states in the latest polls, and they knew that their chances of beating him fairly were not going to work the way they imagined it. Even most of the US allies across Europe know this already and they preparing for the inevitable. Except..... If the unthinkable happens..... Another attempt at Trump's life. |

If they follow up with the EU plan, many other countries and non-state actors that operate many accounts there might withdraw their assets, and that could negatively impact the Swiss economy. So, it's in their best interest to not follow up with the plan which is practically a theft. |
