Why the SMO was launched to begin with is a total mystery to me right now. When you say that it was maybe a preemptive attack I assume you are throwing that out there for lack of any other explanation. I don't have any ideas either but a preemptive attack seems way unlikely imo. I cant see FSB correctly predicting a Ukrainian attack under any circumstances. If the Ukrainians were about to attack its unlikely FSB would know because they arent interested in that kind of stuff to begin with. But even if they did know would they actually share this information with Putin or any Kremlin decision makers?
I suppose its possible that the information came from outside FSB and FSB tried to downplay it. When it became evident that Putin wanted some kind action they pretended to have assets on the ground and only a half ass intervention was necessary. Thats all I can come up with. But when you look at how nobody has been held accountable for the absolutely humiliating f(ck ups, how it seems like Putin avoids making decisions like the plauge, it seems weird that he would have triggered the SMO to begin with. Just how likely is it that Putin simultaneously believed that the Ukrainians were about to launch operation storm 2 and also all Russia needed to do to cause the Ukraine to collapse was send some lightly armed troops without any back up on a relaxed drive to Kiev? Does that make any sense?
The Russian professional Army, Wagner and the more hardcore DNR and LNR militias have despite all the disadvantages foisted on them done very well with very little. They gave NATO absolute hell at both Krasny Liman and Herson where they actually had a presence unlike around Kharkov. By absolutely no means has the war so far demonstrated that the Russians just suck at war. Russia has also demonstrated they can strike deep into Ukraine with their stand off weapons at will. When the Patriotic bloggers just outright chalk up all the failures so far to sabotage I tend to agree. The Russian elite really is shot through with traitors after all and we havent seen one clear cut NATO victory yet that wasnt handed to them with gift wrapping and a bow on top. Perhaps im just coping here but I do think Russia already has the means to win this and all thats lacking is will at the top. So far Strelkov hasnt been wrong about anything and hopefully he was right when he said that if he was allowed to go to the front that Russia would win in the end.

Great post, a bit on the long side so people tend to skip it.
To be honest the AFU attack on Balakliya and blitz-advance to Kupiansk at the start of Sept was brilliant. Russians were overstretched sure, but the AFU exploited that weakness flawlessly. Russians could retreat behind river Oskil with basin lakes in front of Kupiansk but had to scramble further back abandoning that natural line of redoubt. Also Lyman fell fairly quickly, sure much faster than the weeks it took Russian and Lugansk military to seize it in Spring.
There was advance notice of the AFU massing for a planned assault of Donetsk - DPR- right to the Russian border. That was when the RF military executed a lightning mobilization to the Russian-Ukrainian border. The plans for the AFU assault scheduled for the first week in March were taken in the initial advances of the Allies into the Donbass. Now I have to go find where I read that six going on seven months ago and reexamination of the credibility of the sources. It was most likely a writer posting with Rolo's old buddy, Andrei The Saker.
A personal note: I "started paying attention to Russia" long ago when my mother gave me a copy of "Crime and Punishment" as I went off to college saying "Smart people read Russian novels"
On odd omission to your valuable summary? - Seizure of Crimea and the incursion of 2014 - I think that belongs here.
I left a "demographic crisis" note over at Occidental - that's gotta be part of the going forward mix - the bio-security state is not merely an incidental add on to the NWO - so: how about the Russian Idea offers some population health innovations (notice I did not say "public health") - starting with some serious natalism promoting policies - how about some "post vaccine/medication models of population health" - and get rid of the population surveillance projects - reject vaccine passports for entry to Russia - announce it now - this is just a start - if Russia wants to be "sovereign state" it has got to start acting like one - we are at a point where that's easy - or should be. But I think you are a lonely voice - the elites no longer want to run sovereign states - it's too hard and the beautiful people and cuisine at Davos are so delightful!
Thanks for that vax passport clarification - I was alluding -in a not at all clear way - to the fact that Lavrov did sign the agreement at the recent G20 that pledges nations to introduce vax passports for all international travel - that raises the prospect that one will -by 2030? - require a vax passport to enter any nation including Russia.
So, the larger point is that if Russia wants to maintain itself as a sovereign nation (subject of the post) - they - or somebody please! - needs to start acting that way - and how better to do that than ditching Lavrov (who may be very sick anyway) and repudiating the just signed passport treaty. And there are so many other ways - like going all in on pro-natalism.
Looks like the mRNA vax is creating an enormous fall off in birthrates throughout the developed world - and no one except a few bloggers cares about that - any word from Putin - who we all gush over given half a chance - on that issue yet?

This post plagiarizes one with the same title appearing on Unz.com.
Comments over there are in the hundreds and most are surreal. Apparently you are "behind the Analyses Curve."
One comment cites Bakhmut, out of all Russian mishaps, as overwhelming evidence against your critical stance towards the Kremlin, in ways I cannot fathom: "Last I heard was that the situation around Bakhmut and in the Lugansk/Kharkov convergence is becoming a bit desperate for the Ukies… Slavsky makes no mention of the missile and drone offensives which have succeeded in taking down the Puppet regime’s electrical system and internal communications networks. These are fully logical steps to precede major military operations.
Maybe Slavsky will sing a different tune as the occupational forces in the western sector of the Donetsk Oblast lose cohesion and accelerate their crumbling. That central front is the teller marker for the progression of the war."
To notice, Ron Unz put a like to the first comment, which blabbers something about hypersonic missiles in a sarcastic tone.
In the end, most of the commenters (to your posts, to unz.com, but we can extrapolate, on the internet in general) then spout of having spent "30 years here, 20 there" or to have owned such and such view "since 1971". Your readers' demographics basically likes to drone away on their personal rants, without really caring to understand yours, we can be assured of this point.
With the rise of social media in Russia, a Trump/Bolsonaro will rise. Artyom Lukin said a future president will likely be a veteran of this "non-war." The most likely person would be STRELKOV, a veteran of the Ukraine war and a social media star.
Thank you, Rolo, for providing such an excellent report on the situation. I have two questions:
(1) Is your fiction available in the USA? I tried to find Rolo Slavskiy on Amazon and was directed to Creamy Caramels Wrapped in Rich Chocolate Candy. (2) Now that Elon Musk has released the truth about the DNC/Twitter and since the 118th congress will certainly investigate the Biden Crime Syndicate, will Victoria Nuland order a direct assault on Moscow in the next 30 days?
Thank you Rolo Slavskiy for your informed, historical reflections centered on Russia and Ukraine, with their Global extensions. As a, basically ignorant but aware human reader, I appreciate your presentation of events & facts without an imposed bias of opinions and projections. Ideal journalism. for me.
As I peer out at our human world on this Internet of www., the only conclusion I can Pray for,
is a Unification of our planetary Humankind , as we, The People, awake to this Secret War of Global Enslavement . Human & Earthly Genocide Is Happening -Globally. Global "Elites" gather, envision and weave their webs of 'legality' , to become the 'Head' of Our Human Body-a OWO. 'Pin headed' - Parasitic 'worms/maggots' in sheep's' clothing.
The People of our World Are Dying.- from genes to mass murder. Torture & Slaughter stalk the Beings, the Environment, the Totality of our Planet. Human Beings Are Protesting. We have trusted our governing authorities, ignored the decay , corruption. allowing that corruption to run Rampant into Global Destruction.
Humans Are the Caretakers of Earth under God.. We have been given 'Choice'. Who is to know if this is our last time, our last choice ? our last chance? Each of us chooses daily...
Why do you think the NATO forces in Ukraine are so strong and pose such a threat? Where are you getting your info on their size, composition, strength, morale, logistics? Do you totally discount the casualty figures that generally seem to put Ukie deaths at 100k plus 3x in wounded? If so, why? Other than the August gains against admittedly weak and overstretched militias, what has Ukr done of any significance?
Thanks for the reply. It doesn't match what Van der stupid said. She said "killed" not casualties. The ECB tried to walk it back but she herself hasn't retracted her statement. The fact that the Kiev regime was so furious about her ststement is some indication that 100k dead was accurate. Also, reports from the front that Kiev is forced to shanghai old men into the military is more evidence that fhe KIAs are 100k not 25k.
Again, I'm curious where you get your information on Kiev forces that seems so optimistic.
"For reasons that are still not readily apparent, possibly an imminent Ukrainian attack on Donetsk, Putin ordered a strike force to invade Ukraine on the 24th of February"
Round about the time that Truckers in Canada and elsewhere were creating momentum against the planned NWO. Coincidence?
I wish it was only a theory but once you see the Lockstep reaction of Russia and other countries to the Plandemic Mandatory Injections G20 agreement etc and join the dots it should be apparent-otherwise I think your article is very succinct
Russia is beyond fucked. We în the west smell the blood, no way we are backing down. We are going all tge way, because what will cuck Putin do, he s a weakling.
And what if what see is actually what is going on? That seems to be anathema to pro-Russian pundits. What if Russia was never threatened by Ukraine or Nato but just decided, for historical, nostalgic reasons that it absolutely needs to expand to cover hits historic empire in Europe and elsewhere on its periphery? That interpretation seems a lot simpler the complex conspiracies that are required by the pro-Russian chattering class.
🤣🤣 so your take is "well what if actually the Jews, Biden and Hannity are correct and Russia invaded for no reason"? Serious question, how did you even end up here to begin with? But anyway do you also believe the MSM when they say Russia is bombing itself in Donetsk? The thing is Russian civilians in Donbass have been getting blown up by the Ukrainians for 8 years. Literally thousands of Russian civilians have been killed by Ukrainian shelling and the reverse has not happened at all.
That is its only Russian civilians in Donbass that have been getting maimed and killed. These civilians would certainly be surprised if you told them NATO and the AFU were harmless. However nobody actually denies all these dead and maimed Donbass residents, but the jews/the Ukrainians say that Russia actually blew up all these people in false flags to trick them into not liking the post Maiden government. The MSM in the west either repeats those claims verbatim or they just leave it ambiguous as to who is shelling Donbass everyday.
But your position unfortunately requires believing an absolutely ridiculous conspiracy theory as well. It cant be true that NATO and the Ukraine are no threat but they are also blowing up people in Donbass all the time. So I ask again, do you agree that it was actually Russia shelling donbass the past 8 years?
I started reading you as I wanted a Russian view of the war....do you actually live in Russia? I definitely am not on the side of the NATO Satanists who want to rule the world but have struggled with the nagging thought that behind the scenes Putin is actually working with the "west" AKA NATO....that would explain a lot of what is actually going on...
What do you think of Scott Ritter's reports? He's on the Russian side as are several US and British citizens e.g. Patrick Lancaster, Tex, Brian Berletic, the Duran people, et al
A very insightful essay but let's make it simpler.

Thank you Rolo - keep up the good work, I know you will not kneel to the ideologues and will continue offering a fresh, realistic voice.
