CIA Director Says The Next 6 Months Will Be 'Critical' For Ukraine

 

CBS News: CIA Director William Burns: Next 6 months will be "critical" in Ukraine war 

CIA Director William Burns said Thursday that the next six months would be "critical" in the war in Ukraine with Russian President Vladimir Putin betting that waning Western interest and "political fatigue" could afford his military a new chance at making battlefield gains. 

"Putin, I think, is betting right now that he can make time work for him," Burns said. "The key is going to be on the battlefield in the next six months, it seems to us." 

"Puncturing Putin's hubris, making clear that he's not only not going to be able to advance further in Ukraine, but as every month goes by, he runs a greater and greater risk of losing the territory that he's illegally seized from Ukraine so far," he continued. "So this next period, I think, is going to be absolutely crucial."

As said before.....since November


Why too late by April?

Because we are in the 30 to 60 day zone.

They need to attack Now.

After that... ground unfreezes and more Nato weapons arrive.

Larry Johnson posits that the Russians may now have begun their attacks, and others say that they may now from today fight continually forward until the Ukrainian forces are gone.

Too Little Too Late Joe

WTF Burns


Seriously What the Fuck Burns, why is Burns front and center and not Austin? It is open fucking war.

Congress are not the only chickenshits when it comes to declaring war. Putin is a chicken shit too He did not declare war. He declared a special military operation.


Strategy And Tactics magazine's latest issue is about the start of WW2 and what if the French and British had defensed Czechoslovakia. Their analysis is that it would have been bloody, but it would have killed far fewer people and ended sooner.

There is a price for a being a chickenshit.


Chickenshits rule the roost in the Kremlin and DC.

Do I sense rooskie trolls are in the chat now along with hard lefty's? Maybe another 500,000 conscripted soldier's will do. Don't fall back ruskies or the soldiers will shoot any fleeing battle. Don't worry putnam has foot ball suitcase.

The network of donors and activist groups led by conservative billionaire Charles Koch will oppose Donald Trump for the 2024 Republican nomination, mounting a direct challenge to the former president’s campaign to win back the White House.

“The best thing for the country would be to have a president in 2025 who represents a new chapter,” Emily Seidel, chief executive of the network’s flagship group, Americans for Prosperity (AFP), wrote in a memo released publicly on Sunday. The three-page missive repeatedly suggests that AFP is taking on the responsibility of stopping Trump, with Seidel writing: “Lots of people are frustrated. But very few people are in a position to do something about it. AFP is. Now is the time to rise to the occasion.”

REVEALED: Three Chinese spy balloons infiltrated the US during Trump administration but he NEVER shot them down or told the public - as Republicans call for Biden to resign for putting Americans at risk

The Department of Defense reported that three Chinese spy balloons entered US airspace during the Trump administration
The revelation started Mark Esper, the former president's own Secretary of Defense, who said he was never made aware of such incidents
It comes as Republicans are calling for Biden to resign after waiting about a week to shoot down the balloon over the coast of South Carolin

Fred,

Former Sec Def Mark Esper said otherwise. Esper is one of those people that the Left loves until they don't.

Esper went on the record. Did the sources for the rags you read go on the record or is it on background.

We can see Fred went BOLD, because he is very agitated. He's manning the ramparts for some reason.

SIX MONTHS? WTF. i give them 60 days before it's another Vstula-Oder Campaign. Punch through the first lines and they are gone. Even with the junk Russian equipment.

As usual Dementia Joe and his useless liberal sycophants slow walk everything and by time it gets there its barely in time. That can only work so often.
