The enthusiasm in the western media for an imminent Ukrainian victory over Russia has been ever circular; people who only get their news from corporate sources are likely to believe that Russia is about to be defeated any day now. However, as with all propaganda campaigns the public eventually grows tired of hollow optimism and skeptical of bombastic claims. Influencing hearts and minds is a fading prospect if your campaign is based on lies.
If the war has taught people anything it is to never trust establishment media sources to be accurate in their reporting, or prescient in their predictions.
A year ago we heard a deafening chorus of voices in the west suggesting that Ukraine’s victory was all but assured. The media’s boasts were relentless, but the numbers just didn’t add up. Zelensky’s appetite for NATO money and arms kept growing instead of waning. Recruitment efforts were expanding to include more women and older men. The talk of a glorious counter-offensive went on for months with no concrete actions taken. Rumors of mass deaths at Bakhmut circulated and it became clear that it doesn’t matter how many weapons NATO sends to Ukraine, there aren’t enough soldiers to utilize them.
Ukraine’s top military commander, Valery Zaluzhny, acknowledged in a recent essay that training and recruiting troops was becoming a serious challenge.
“The prolonged nature of the war, limited opportunities for the rotation of soldiers on the line of contact, gaps in legislation that seem to legally evade mobilization, significantly reduce the motivation of citizens to serve with the military.”
The essay admitted a bleak reality: Ukraine needs more people in uniform, and it needs them now. Wars are won by men, not by armaments. Going by this metric, Ukraine has already lost.
The situation is far worse than Zaluzhny lets on. Reports of aging recruits are more frequent these days (the average age of new recruits is older than 40 years). Training of Ukrainians is rarely done in Ukraine. Instead, conscripts are shipped to places like the UK, Australia and New Zealand. This may be because training facilities in their home country are not safe from Russian missile strikes, but a more likely explanation is that Ukraine is running low on experienced soldiers to train new fighters.
Training in foreign facilities is highly expedited, with programs that normally take months being fast tracked and completed in mere weeks. Yet another sign that Ukraine is desperate for combat capable troops. The life expectancy of these trainees is not good, and it is saddening to see Ukraine’s population being used as a proxy in a conflict that should have gone to the negotiating table a long time ago.
NATO’s clear intent is to see the war continue, perhaps indefinitely. The problem is, the general public has moved on to other concerns, including the war in Israel and its potential to spread beyond Gaza. Ammunition and arms shipments once destined for Ukraine are now being diverted to Israel. Zelensky has become visibly frustrated with the situation. After many months of being told by US and EU politicians that the whole of the west was flying Ukrainian flags over their homes, reality is finally slapping the former comedian in the face.
As some predicted last year, “Ukraine fatigue” has set in. The majority of Americans polled now say they no longer support more funding or arms for Ukraine.
NATO is a globalist entity, like the UN and WEF.
As such, its actual agenda might be quite different from its stated one.
One of the elites’ top agenda points is the DEPOPULATING of people on earth.
All these elitist entities want to keep their hands clean while funneling people into one meat grinder or another.
NATO has really been pulling its load in killing off massive numbers of people in Eastern Europe (Ukraine) and Russia.
Covid jabs are another front in their battle to kill people.
Getting people to cut their sex organs off is yet another front.
Sneaking insect carapaces into the human diet will be deadly for many if it happens on a large enough scale.
And, of course, designer viruses are another.
