I certainly believe you hell of a lot more than I do that Delboy Mercouris of the Duran, who just went full retard over Prigozhin's video. He wouldn't even acknowledge the existence of corruption in the Army, which is a well known fact. And let's say that I can take Prigozhin by his word. He's not a politician, he can say whatever he wants. But I do wonder how the story about the lack of ammo fits the story of immense ammo deposits captured by Wagner in the mines of Soledar. Were they the wrong fit or what?
Ritter (and also Lira) are basically taking Russian MOD talking points at face value. Sitting here in the USA, it looks to me like Putin has a lot more credibility than Brandon. And the Russians may not be winning as bigly as Ritter and Lira have been predicting, but neither are they being routed off the field as badly as Prighozin and Strelkov have been warning against.
In the fog of war, none of us know for sure. The 5D bloggers may be wrong, and maybe they should be listening to Prighozin and Strelkov more closely. But you guys act like this proves that they're either on the Russian government payroll, or maybe they're playing some sort of 7D chess for the CIA. Really?
Bentley is practically gloating that Lira has been captured again by the Ukrainian cops. He asks how any literate adult could be too stupid to see that Lira must be a CIA/SBU stooge. Well, I do understand Bentley's point. But I'm imagining that they brought Lira in the first time, and he reassured them: he does think that Ukraine's army is made up of brave and well-intentioned individuals. And that he's just a blogger, not a spy or warrior. And whatever else he could truthfully say.
And they decided to let him loose, and keep an eye on him. I think he was noticeably more careful with his words for quite a while after that happened.
So now he's been silenced again. How exactly does that benefit anyone except the SBU and CIA? Bentley says "You know what happens to REAL journalists who post anti-nazi info? Ask Vladen Tatarsky or Daria Dugina, or Graham Phillips or Alina Lipp. Or me." Well, now it's happening to Lira. Again. The grim reaper seems to come around at random.
Lira was just stupid for doing what he was doing openly in Kharkov. He had it coming. Why he was released the first time without at least being deported is curious though. Im guessing some kind of bribery was involved. As for Bentleys disdain its understandable enough. From Bentleys point of view he and lots of his friends may be dead soon because of the people running Russia. Lira is shilling for the people running Russia. Bentley up and went to Donbass at a fairly advanced age and fought in some brutal battles for a cause he believed in. Turns out it was all BS and for nothing while Lira is validating the people that are pissing on Bentleys dream.
Bentley is for sure a boomer communist anti racist. But Ill give the guy lots of credit on 2 counts at least. He really did put up and fight for real, and he apparently does have a limit on how much cognitive dissonance he can maintain. I personally know very many Americans who hate Brandon, the trannies, BLM, antifa etc, Americans who I was in the Army with and contracted with. Im not talking about guys who are cowards by any means but they to this day still take all their cues from guys like Ben Shapiro, Tucker Carlson, and Jordan Peterson. Despite hating everything the Federal Government is doing they are harmless. They might get arrested for edgy internet posts one day but that will be a case of Zog showing power and flexing on people it hates, not reacting to a real threat.
Bentley however despite his ideological driven denial in regards to the joys of diversity is in fact able to make observations about whats going around him and draw conclusions about who is doing these things he hates. Than when he sees people shilling for those he considers guilty he calls it out. He won't claim "well ritter is pointing people in the right direction so lets overlook all the other glaring BS he is saying". He isn't interested in simply owning Russophobes therefore dont counter signal McGregor. That is Bentley can actually see the implications of what the 5D Kremlin Theben chorus are saying. For an American thats rare.
Americans not being able to suss out the implications of what people like Shapiro, Hannity, Peterson are saying, not being able to get past the satisfaction of seeing someone they disliked owned or just melting because someone sort of validates something they agree with is common. For a straight boomer American at advanced age to be able to suss out the implications of what someone is saying and establishing that his own aims dont line up with the speakers at all despite lots of surface agreement is rare. Bentley deserves props for that and despite my own irreconcilable differences with him I wish more of my American friends had that ability.
It's sad how many Americans buy the horseshit Shapiro, Hannity, and the rest are selling. I can't tell you how many people agree with me that there's no voting our way out of Globohomo but refuse to make the next conclusion that we need an Octavian or God-Emperor with Fish Speakers to reclaim civilization.
I always appreciated that Lira had the guts to stream from Karkhov. He could report when the lights went out, and he could report on nearby bombings and air raid sirens. Maybe that's not so special for Russian speakers on Telegram, but I'm going to miss those reports if he's gone. And furthermore: after his first capture, Lira said that he was released on house arrest with strict instructions not to leave the city. So since then, his residential choice hasn't been optional.
How is lira a cia/sbu stooge when everything he says is 100% against the cia/sbu narrative? Can someone answer this question with details that make sense?
It's not the medieval age anymore... satellites? Drones? Recon aircraft?
>The 5D bloggers may be wrong, and maybe they should be listening to Prighozin and Strelkov more closely. But you guys act like this proves that they're either on the Russian government payroll, or maybe they're playing some sort of 7D chess for the CIA. Really?
Option 3 is that they are true believer idiots... qanon 2.0
"satellites? Drones? Recon aircraft?" It's the big boys who have those. And they're blowing a lot of smoke. Somebody is obviously lying, but who? Maybe all of them.
Good news for rolo, you do not have to be concerned about Priogzhins opinions because he is going crazy. Just like bashar assad you see.... the duran just truth bombed it. The war is breaking his mind so just be chill
Rolo, I use Substack Reader on my iPad. I have in the past looked to upgrade my subscription but there is no easy way of doing it. Only when I access Substack through a browser do I see the upgrade button. Substack should fix this problem. Anyway, I’ve subscribed.
I clicked on the link to your article from March, and there was Strelkov predicting that the Ukrainian offensive would be mid April, maybe earlier. But I won't hold it against you.

OMG the UAF could be on Red Square and it wouldnt even be a big deal you provincial Neanderthal. Taking territory doesn't even matter. The AFU could be on red square and it wouldn't even count as long as the MoD regrouped hard enough. Borders are just lines on a map bro, its the militarys job to de-escalate and regroup not protect lines on a peace of paper drawn up by whoever.
Some borders are more important than others. Little towns in Zaporozhye are not such a big deal. I can't even spell Zaporozhye. If Putin thinks they aren't worth fighting for, who are we to disagree?
As an American, of course I hope that the Russian military will keep de-escalating even when the AFU is in Crimea. But I wouldn't bet on it.
Somebody has to be the adult in the room. If the reactors with all the spent fuel pools are bombed to smithereens, the entire region will be uninhabitable for generations.
NAFO does not care. Kansas and Nebraska can fill that gap in cropland. I think things will escalate under a false flag. Globohomo needs "Biden" to be a wartime president.
I engaged Simplicius in a discussion about this. He's predicting that Ukraine will be too cowardly to mount an offensive at all; and in the unlikely event that they do, they'll be "crushed". He mocks Strelkov for predicting that Syria would fall and that Putin would be overthrown way back in 2017, among other things.
So we have a falsifiable test here. You can't both be right, and we'll know by the end of June.
Kadyrov kind of just shit on Prigozhin for showing dead wagnerites in the video and Gonzalo Lira was just arrested again. His arrest video is on the link, at least they let him change his pajamas and put on proper clothes before escorting him out.
Kadyrov... im not sure what to make of this Chechen warlord but he seems to have a big mouth. He was even saying more stupid things on social media then the barking dog of the kremlin Medvedev. I still remember this guy saying there were soon going to be in Kiev during the battle of Mariupol lol. And besides his troops were only 2nd line infantry during the battle of Mariupol. Most fighting was done by the Russian marines and DPR militia while the chechens stayed in the rear. The Ukrainians even called them the tiktok brigade.
I don't know what to make of Kadyrov either. I held him in high regard and then I met a former pro western/current Russian nationalist a few weeks ago and had a long talk with him. He hates Muslims so there may be some bias but he told me Kadyrov is basically a terrorist/extortionist who doesn't do or say anything pro Russia without getting paid first. I was a bit skeptical then I remembered that Kadyrov has an estate in Czech where his $10mm horse was stolen so perhaps it's true, unless Grozny civil servant wages are the highest in the world.
I'm good for the six bucks, but you're gonna need a bigger gun to get a thousand

I have a running bet with my russian chat that UAF will be sitting outside melitople in June.
OMG the UAF could be on Red Square and it wouldnt even be a big deal you provincial Neanderthal. Taking territory doesn't even matter. The AFU could be on red square and it wouldn't even count as long as the MoD regrouped hard enough. Borders are just lines on a map bro, its the militarys job to de-escalate and regroup not protect lines on a peace of paper drawn up by whoever.
Russian 5d bokh says as such, the great khan cares not for land but victory.
Some borders are more important than others. Little towns in Zaporozhye are not such a big deal. I can't even spell Zaporozhye. If Putin thinks they aren't worth fighting for, who are we to disagree?
As an American, of course I hope that the Russian military will keep de-escalating even when the AFU is in Crimea. But I wouldn't bet on it.
That nuclear power plant better be worth fighting for if the Russians don't want NATO troops there wearing blue helmets.

But we've had like two tests before this already.
Will people forget about this test one way or the other by fall as well?
This time, I've pinned you both down to specifics. No hedges, no caveats, no fallbacks. Here's the thread, for reference:
https://simplicius76.substack.com/p/emergency-evacuation-of-zaporozhye/comment/15664700
But I'm just some anonymous guy on the Internet. I suppose everybody else will probably forget. Sigh...
Ukraine is not cowardly. But they make that up with being incredibly stupid.
Actually, by then we'll be knowing by the end of July.
I'm still looking forward to the long-awaited Winter 2022 General Winter offensive from Russia. Once the ground is frozen...

The guy also loves Prigozhin, Putin and Lavrov and never heard of Dugin before his daughter died.
