Shouldn’t he be dead from the blood cancer that Reddit diagnosed him with in 2022?

So we don’t believe the report that Russia is broke?


No. Because they're not. As others have already mentioned, the bullshite sources for this nonsense have been saying Russia is on the verge of collapse for 4.5 years. It hasn't been true ever.

It sucks watching these so-called "open source intelligence" accounts become compromised and push the same obvious bullshite narratives being peddled by The Wall Street Journal.

Agreed. It's one thing that drove me crazy about the Ukraine/Russia thread and same for the Iran thread. Some of the independent media guys say these open source accounts are just basically intel agency mouthpieces.

We will see what Europe does. They will cower with their head between their legs or have to help. Or come running to the U.S. for help.

Let's see if their words have truth. Time for them counting on the U.S. for everything is over. Espicially the way they treated us for Iran co-operation.

If Eorope stands silent it will be the U.S. and then we withdraw from NATO.

You cant trust them.

Russia has a central bank. That central bank has a website. People can go there and see what they report. For someone calling themselves "open source intelligence" they don't do a very good frickin job. The sleuthing on this seems to have started and stopped with just copy pasting what frickin Bloomberg says.

I think Russia will win the war, why because nor the US or Europe will send troops and thank god for that... I don't believe the Troop deaths on either side, I think the troop deaths are much lower then what has been reported on both sides.... Also believe the Russian Public is in it for the long haul, why because they don't think Nato, USA, or the EU is their friend at all. I believe it was dumb for the west to seek out this war and they did....

We all know Indians and Africans will eventually replace the lost men and women.

After it’s rebuilt that is.

This whole war is a globalist dream.

Yes, and Russia has the motherlode of assets in the ground that would certainly benefit China.

Wow that is very dismissive of you to think NATO is so pathetic and weak.

Nato has put up a good fight in this. They have cannibalized their countries of weapons and resources to send to Ukraine. Paid for Ukraines entire war and governance and pensions out of Europe and americas tax payes pockets. Which has allowed Ukraine to just be a giant military for Nato. Nato has trained its troops, it has complete control of its beaurocrats, it directs the war from German bases planning the strategy and uses its star link and surveillanece systems to attack deep inside russia with nato weapons. Im not sure why you think Russia would defeat Nato so easily in just 3 years. Id give nato a big more credit, they have put up a helluva fight even it they are losing.

One of the problems he has politically as things go bad is that he's trying to be President for life
