The Russian term that literally translates into English as “contract soldier” means “regular soldier” in English. In Russia, a contract soldier is one who signs on for a number years service in the Russian army. He is not a conscript, drafted under compulsion to do military service. All present-day British soldiers, for example, are “contract soldiers”, as are all present-day US soldiers. Members of the Wagner Private Military Company are soldiers contracted to the Wagner organisation.
It's looking more and more like the German Ardennes offensive of 1944-5. Except that the Germans had collected a really impressive force of elite troops with some of the best hardware in the world: Panthers, Tigers, Royal Tigers, etc. But as soon as the clouds lifted they were murdered from the air. People ask: why did the Germans do that? To which the only answer is: what else was there for them to do? "We must do something. This is something. Therefore we must do this".
"Whoever gets to be US President in January 2025, inherits a defeat as momentous as Vietnam." The defeat will never be viewed like that in the US. Ukraine is not even talked about on any main stream news organization, and hasn't been since the start of the Israeli-Hamas incident. The only politician who ever talks Ukraine is senile Joe and no one even listens to him anymore. The fall of Ukraine will be met with a shrug and the people of the US will move on to the next crisis our MSM throws in front of us. If Trump wins the election the MSM will try hard to pin Ukraine's defeat on him but it won't stick since no one really cares because the US has no troops on the ground.
But according to Cassandra the Kursk-operation is a provocation to cause that reaction.
Sending an arrow of tanks through Sumi towards Kiev is what is the hope of Budanov the Imperial Deep State's servant.
NATO needs more time to fortify the Odessa Black Sea region and a frontline around Mikolaiv.
More F16s have to be flown to and be protected in Romania, to keep a foothold in the Black Sea.
NATO doesn't care about Kiev and Zelensky...
They are still dreaming of Sevastopol and the Crimean beaches... Who controles Crimea, controls the Black Sea Aerospace... But Odessa will do.
And one day Recep Tayyip Erdoğan will be gone... The Deep State dreams of the freedom to send their Subs and Carriers into the Black Sea (I would not advise them to try that before they have taken over or destroyed all of the Russian Black Sea coastal Defences) ...

Kursk. The Ukrainians launched an attack on Kursk? After what happened to the Germans there in 1943?
Why yes, they did. Nazis gonna nazi, I guess.

They're just genociding their own people at this point so might as well go splashy I guess
Thank you...
Medvedev reacts as many Russians will do.

"I would not be surprised if Zelensky is assassinated."
It won't be the Russians doing it.
