More western cope. The full video shows multiple dead soldiers and western weapons as well. If it is a fake then it's a pretty good one.
It would be a good idea to assume its going to be like the previous "aid" bill, in which only 40% of the money was actually for Ukraine and the rest was actually for the MIC to finance arms purchase for the rest of Europe
The new measure includes $6 billion to arm and train Ukrainian forces, $8.7 billion to restore American stores of weapons shipped to Ukraine and $3.9 billion for U.S. forces deployed to the area.
There’s also $8.8 billion in economic support for Ukraine, $4 billion to help Ukraine and allies finance arms and equipment purchases and $900 million for housing, education and other help for Ukrainian refugees in the U.S.
Nah, it means you're right on track but you're too scared for the repercussions to admit that.It would seem either I am pretty spot on or I am treading too close to propaganda. Either way, it makes me uncomfortable. I had said yesterday based on my own count the Russians had lost about 32 BTG and 12ish tank battalions. That's around 1/3 of the initial BTG the Russians started with. Along come the Brits with...
Britain says Russia has lost a third of its forces in Ukraine
( I put in the title just in case Reuters changes it again. Many news websites seem to do that these days)
I doubt I had any input into the British press release. However, it does make me want to be doubly sure about my numbers and what I am counting, etc. The reason being we are always in danger of falling into the trap of believing those who agree with us only. Confirmation bias is an evil bit...ahem problem. The modern internet is tuned specifically to feed us what we want to see and hear so we will watch and click more for their revenue reasons. The bubble is real and dangerous.
That will take 20 years to kill 1 million Ukrainian soldiers at the current rate of ~10,000 per 2.5 months.If Russia kills 20% of the 5 million potential fighters, the rest will flee or surrender
Anyone thought China lost to Vietnam in the 1979 war was delusional or on propaganda purpose. China achieved its strategic objectives with heavy costs. The Vietnamese army just won the war against the US after many years of guerrilla warfare, while China did not fight a war since 1962. And north Vietnam is not a place for PLA army corp scale infantry battles. And China never had occupation as its objective. So the result of that war was a "惨胜" from China's perspectives, with relatively inferior military equipments and battlefield experiences in that part of the world. Vietnam had the material backing of USSR but China was fighting on its own right after the Culture Revolution. I know better than 99.999% of human beings how ill-prepared China was for a major war back then.If Vietnam won over China it surely was a PATHETIC Victory.
Vietnam did well but to conclude China lost is far fetched.
" To date, neither Hanoi nor Beijing has disclosed the exact details of the border agreement or a new official map. In a single interview with state media, a Vietnamese deputy foreign minister responsible for the negotiations downplayed Vietnam’s loss of major cultural landmarks, including the Ai Nam gate and the Ban Gioc waterfall.
He rejected accusations on blogs and overseas websites that his government ceded territory by arguing that the government managed to keep most of the Tuc Lam River bank - despite the fact that according to historical maps the entire area had once belonged to Vietnam.

US MSM brainwashing propaganda STRONK !!!

I am thinking that it is CIF30 being the first lair. ifeng may be guilty of lying or guilty of irresponsible in checking fact.Thank you. The linked report was from iFeng.com website, which is not always credible, but at least they're not a fly-by-night website. It's hard to imagine they would do a forgery of Ambassador Gao and on such a topic. Due to the sensitivity of his previous role and the subject, it's also likely that he was under pressure to retract his comments.
In any case, I don't know. It could be either way.
Sounds a lot like a racket and money laundering sometimes.
