A Visit To The Ukraine Frontlines

WNU Editor: No surprises from Franz-Stefan Gady in the above post. He basically goes to Ukraine to see the front-lines and is given one by the Ukraine military and his Ukraine hosts. And even though this "tour" was tightly controlled by the Ukraine government and military to give the best possible light on the war, they were still certain things that could not be hidden. Things like old men on the front-lines. Ukraine is conducting direct assaults, not probing attacks. Russia has yet to commit its reserves.

But the best part of his thread was at the end, where this explanation on why Ukraine was not achieving its counteroffensive goals was made .... 

.... But soldiers fighting on the frontline we spoke to are all too aware that lack of progress is often more due to force employment, poor tactics, lack of coordination btw. units, bureaucratic red tape/infighting, Soviet style thinking etc. & ...Russians putting up stiff resistance. 

Russians putting up stiff resistance. No kidding.

The "American official". who said the United States and other nations had trained Ukrainian troops..


This is a criminal statement if it is supposed to translate or infer that the Ukrainians have everything they need to punch thru the defensive lines.

They have limited to no air power and limited artillery. Yes they have other equipment and they were trained.

So I will train you to do the 3-5 second rush, probe thru a mine field, and fire the M4 rifle.

I will then give you a M4 rifle and some grenades and a bangalore torpedo.

Then you will go to combat in open, flat, terrain and by yourself, with no other support. I then insist you attack a fully operational Mini Gun emplacement.

And my excuse will be: that I armed you and trained you and provided you intel by telling you the mini gun was there.

This really is sick. The logic of these: no-nothing officials , pundits and so called Military experts is horribly flawed and borders criminal incompetence.

This guy is linked to Kaufman in the Twitter feed. So More twisted Intel as filtered through the neocon lense.

Eggs head intellectuals and arm chair generals.

Then people wonder why the Ukrainian losses have been so high or why after 2 to three weeks we see the news reports reverse them selves.

Yes, we do not lie to you, the truth changed
