Not totally sold that Wagner took Soledar, Bakhmuts etc via meat storm. For a meat storm to really work the stormers need a respectable advantage in manpower and I don't think that's ever been the case for the Russian side ever. If anything Wagner had parity with the Ukrainians in the best cases and was often outnumbered. This would of course apply to MoD units as well wherever they are on the line.

Whats made Wagner more successful imo is just that unlike MoD they are a decently run organisation from top to bottom. For example when Wagner actually has enough artillery ammo their stormaviki can call for support directly with no middle men. MoD have no encrypted comms at all as a rule and often just no comms what so ever between units bigger than platoons. Wagner does have comms. Utkin, Lotus, and even Prigozhin himself seem to well respected with in Wagner. If they had the reputation for being merciless butchers of their own men would that be the case?

Theres no doubt at all Wagners casualties are high and if you are a stormaviki you have a pretty good chance of being maimed or killed before your contract is up. But thats because you will be expected to defeat opponents who outnumber and gun you who are fighting defense in urban terrian. That is there isnt anything especially impressive about zerg rush meat assault victories, but Wagners achievements actually are fairly impressive considering the odds stacked against them. And again this is a tribute to Wagner just having fairly competent leadership from top to bottom whereas with MoD units the competent leadership is absent above the company level in most cases.

Every day it feels more and more like the real war is between Russian oligarchic factions. The US doesn't even care anymore and are just hoping this wraps up on a high note before elections.

I like your analysis, as usual, except for where you hint at "The Jews" as being in control. The psychopaths who run the world aren't racially or culturally homogeneous. Jews may be overrepresented in the group simply because they're better at establishing and maintaining intergenerational wealth, and wealth offers more opportunities for psychopathic and sociopathic behavior, but to ignore the fact that many of the Bilderbergers and similar groups are not Jewish, and to lump in the overwhelming majority of Jews who are good people, minding their own business, is intellectually lazy. Please find a better term. And I don't mean "YKWs" or other snide synonyms. I like Mathew Crawford's term, Kunlangeta.

You cant make this shit up, if this is how the Russian government repays you after you just won one of the bloodiest battles since ww2 on par with Stalingrad then Russian soldiers will rebel sooner or later. We know the Russian army cant get shit done because the leaders are morally bankrupt,drunk and criminal. Men follow officers and leaders who are down to earth and like themselves who give and feel.with their men. Not some short asiatic Turk mongol who stole millions of rubbles. Who wants to fight and die for that? They are not even being allowed to be nationalistic, like the chechens who just spit in Russias face, claiming their honor was damaged yet during the battle of Mariupol they were just 2nd line Infantry and rear guard troops while the storming and dying was done by

white Russian marines and Dpr regiments. The whole world now sees the corruption and incompetence of the Russian elite and generals. Even Russia itself has now been invaded, a nucleair power mind you. The west knows how to beat the Russians. While Moscow has now clue.

DO you think much of this is true?

Seems that first the talking-heads said "moscow drones" were a nothing-burger,

Then they denied Prigozhin dissing Putin, and the MOD

Now you got BS about Wagner going rogue

..

Wagner leaves bakhmut, and now they say that Ukraine has retaken, and MOD isn't doing shit;

That UKRO's are attacking Belograd and the governor is talking with UKRO-Nazi's, cuz MOD wasn't want to be involved??

Does any of this make sense at all??

...

OCCAM's Razor I say when PRIGOZHIN went full on the ELite and called their children to go to the funerals that all the ELITE have now decided that WAGNER is the enemy and NOT Zelensky;

Like I keep asking, never get an answer, who paid Wagners bill about $10 billion USD for the past 420 days of fighting&dying in bakhmut, hell with all the deaths there has to be widows fund money going out, ... some serious cash who is paying for this??

...

Yes, Kiev must be so confused, next thing we'll here is that Prigozhin shot himself 10x in the back of the head with a nailgun, calling it suicide;

The dark clown does it again, what an absolute banger. The ukrops will believe there is turmoil in russias ranks, and then the final chess play will be made.

I skimmed the article but will read fully later. Again, I'm finding this viewpoint incredibly intriguing because I see more clearly how they're using the unique characteristics of Russia and Russians to design Russia's capitulation in the current era. I would only caution the following. The machinations of those who truly instigate these wars and conflicts are like an octopus. Their tentacles spread far and wide gripping every aspect of a situation.

Additionally, as we've come to know in the U.S., everything is compartmentalized. One group doesn't know what another group does even within the same intelligence agency. Those participating become beholdened to their immediate superior via wealth in one form or another: material assets (insider trading; non-biddable, guaranteed contracts); power aggregation (promotions, better assignments, higher salary); freedom in one form or another (If sufficient evidence exists of crimes, as in Hunter Biden's case, they''re never charged.); etc.

Once "the system" is in place, it works very much like the old Italian-American Mafia except in those instances the uninitiated knew who the "Godfather" was. Today's Godfather ends with the nameless Vanguard Board of Directors.

In today's Globalist's system, people participating THINK they know the game, but they don't. They're peons, but of course, appealing to an individual's ego is the surest route to compliance. I would go so far as to say that people like Biden, Trump, Gates, Soros, Schwab, are, in truth, peons to a great extent. If "The Hidden Hand" interview is truthful (and I think it is), the true power players are never in the press nor ever seen in public. Hence, we might conclude the Rothschilds are peons.

The question of Jewry and Jews is inconsequential and a distraction. The Khazars adopted Judism undoubtedly because the religion most closely served their purposes.

"The origin of the word CAUC-ASIAN takes its root here. Contrary to popular belief, Caucasians and Whites are NOT the same people. Caucasians as the name signifies are the Asians that settled in the Caucasus Mountains whereas the “White” man, refers to the pure, White European bloodlines that were not intermixed with the Asiatics (whom later became known as Khazars, then Yids (Yiddish), then Ashkenazis/Sephardis and today they’re all just called “Jews”, which is wrong and refers to those who practice Judaism, nothing to do with the race of these Asiatic nomad rascals and deceivers).

They called their new kingdom, Khazaria. The Khazars by then were a mixture of Huns, Mongols, Turks and Magyars." http://radiochristianity.com/the-history-of-the-khazars-part-one/

For those who question how the control remains intergenerational, I suggest the "The Hidden Hand Q & A" held years ago on the "Above Top Secret" forum. You may believe it or not. https://stillnessinthestorm.com/2017/01/dialogue-with-hidden-hand-self-proclaimed-illuminati-insider/

The concept of the demiurge predates the abrahamics, it became interwoven with christianity. Does rolo think this is good or bad? What do you think about the Zeus = God theory? Pre-judaism jews practiced a different religion, based around the worship of an edomite storm god? Did it get mixed in with judaism?

Staggeringly stupid no matter the "excuse" or "ploy". Soldiers on both sides of the exchange will have lost a great deal of trust and those who fight best have trust in their leadership. I'm not even completely clear on the relationship with Wagner and Russia but I do believe Prigozhin after serving in the military for 20 years. His charges have the ring of truth about them and the plausibility of jealously, recklessness, ignorance, spite and stupidity from the upper ranks of the Russian military who ultimately control the war by controlling the supply of goods to the front. Prigozhin has a big ego and his job demands a big ego and his men are in want of a big ego leading them. Russia is fortunate to have such a guy on the ground and his band of bandits doing what they seem to do best and I still think the truth is the greatest victim in Ukraine. Best of luck to the men of Wagner, they are in a tough position all the way around and I for one admire their achievements and believe their leader.

This gives a new meaning to the term "friendly fire." Sadly, a method deployed at times to say someone was accidentally eliminated. However, from time to time this supposed error might be intentional, especially if the victim is considered a troublemaker.

by 'non - Slav tribe' ? I don't want to be offensive. Let me emphasise my sin is ignorance if anything. But I've been of the opinion that Slav are the ones that will happily throw millions into the jaws of death... far more so than any other nation..

Am I wrong? Do you see yourselves as having more concern for human life or at least Slavic lives than other peoples?

Perhaps I've been misled by what (little) I've read of the horrific events of WWII.

I'll be happy to hear that you're more humane than others. I'm very hearts and flowers in my old age. Not heartland Russian perhaps but Belarus might be kinda 'close enough' ? - nine years ago, according to the timestamp, I got captured by this and it is still with me - to me it kinda has been Russia since then.... don't disabuse me if I'm totally wrong:
