US government and media lying about Ukrainian counteroffensive

US intelligence analysts believe that Ukraine has given up on its counteroffensive against Russia and the only thing prolonging the conflict is the unwillingness of Washington and Kiev to acknowledge its failure, a source has told investigative journalist Seymour Hersh.
Writing on Substack on Thursday, the veteran reporter cited an unnamed source, who “spent the early years of his career working against Soviet aggression and spying” as rejecting the Ukrainian narrative about slow but steady progress in its counteroffensive.
“‘It’s all lies,’” the source said, according to Hersh. “‘The war is over. Russia has won. There is no Ukrainian offensive anymore, but the White House and the American media have to keep the lie going.’”
This sentiment is shared by many figures in the US intelligence community, and the CIA in particular has been skeptical of Kiev’s claims of a continued push forward, unlike the Pentagon’s Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), he explained.
quote:
The source cited by Hersh blasted the leadership in both Moscow and Washington for acting “stupid” during the crisis. Russian President Vladimir Putin got “provoked [into] violating the UN charter” with a poorly-prepared military campaign, he argued. US President Joe Biden retaliated with a proxy war and has had to rely on the vilification of Putin by the media “in order to justify our mistake.”
“The truth is if the Ukrainian army is ordered to continue the offensive, the army would mutiny. The soldiers aren’t willing to die any more, but this doesn’t fit the B.S. that is being authored by the Biden White House,” the source concluded.

I have heard it being called the Russel Branding of whatever the establishment hates.

Well, if NexusNewsfeed.com says it, it can’t possibly be fake, right?
I also note this cites Hersh. He’s unfiltered Russian propaganda these days.
Believe what you want to believe. You will do that anyway. But be aware that this is a Russian propaganda piece.

Cope harder.
Some guy that used to work at the CIA and some random retired colonel (of 10,000s) says Russia has won [Bakhmut].

This post is bullshite. I follow the OT thread and know for a fact that Ukraine is actually preparing to seige Moscow by the end of the month.

go to sputnik news. They have a daily graphic that shows the previous 24 hours Ukraine/russian war contact points. The graphic is stored historically and you can scroll back to the spring time prior to the start of the Ukraine offensive. Ukraine has made no substantive progress in moving the line of conflict. Substantive progress could be defined as the distance of a large artillery shell.

Does the sputnik graphic go back to the beginning of the war too?

Might be. But I've heard from unbiased sources that the problem is logistics. People don't understand how large and dug in the Russian forces are. They are in defensive mode specifically to make counteroffensive measures useless. They are set for a LONG waiting game.
An analogy is something like:
Ukraine: 'Aha! Our counter offensive this month retook 100 yards of territory!'
Reality: 'Great. You only have 300 miles to go.'

This is dumb, you can go on Twitter and watch a 100 geo located videos a day. You don't have to read an article from some random corner of the internet to draw your conclusion.
They are still fighting, Almost no progress has been made in the grand scheme of things. It's not a mystery or a conspiracy, this information is widely available.

IMO the final nail in the coffin (literally)? When those 130 so-called Republicans voted to continue to fund this lost proxy war. Who knows what that loonytoon in the Oval Office will pull now?
The American people have lost control of their government. These clowns in Washington dance to the demands of those deep-pocketed lobbyist representing the military-industrial complex.
Evidence of the lunacy? Potatus fights to defend Ukraine's border, while allowing foreign invaders to surge across our southern border.
General Dwight D. Eisenhower must be turning over in his grave.

The United States of America's government and its controlled State media are lying to the world.
I'm shocked - shocked, I tell ya.
PS The People of the USA prefer to be lied to.

Well that's hilarious. Why hasn't Putin announced Mission Accomplish?
How did Ukraine just blow up the Russian fleet HQ?
How is there satellite evidence of Ukraine gains?

Two things can be true at the same time:
1) The Ukrainian counteroffensive has achieved mixed results due to logistics and strong Russian defenses
2) The war is nowhere near over due to the fact that neither side has managed to move the front by more than a few miles since Ukraine's offensive around Kharkov last summer.
