First, the Egypt-Israel model cannot apply, because unlike in the Middle East, the US and its allies are co-belligerents in Ukraine. Therefore, they cannot expect Russia to accept them as anything but adversaries; the situation on the Korean Peninsula is a more relevant analogy.

Second, the US and its allies not only permitted, but actively conspired with Ukraine in undermining the previous diplomatic efforts that resulted in the Minsk Accords.

Third, this analysis presumes material military weakness and lack of morale on the part of Russia that does not appear to be in evidence. While the inabilities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are now being recognized, the narrative of Russian military incapacity remains largely unchanged despite having been proven to be reliably wrong for the last eighteen months. While the writer recognizes that Ukraine is incapable of winning, he still doesn’t realize that the same is not true of Russia.

Fourth, there are zero indications that Russia has any interest in a diplomatic solution and a plethora of signs that Russia has absolutely no intention of letting Clown World off the hook in Ukraine or anywhere else in the world. If WWIII has, as I believe, already begun, it is not going to be averted by a belated interest in diplomacy on the part of the neoclowns.

"According to one official, the Russian defense has proven more “competent” than expected. However, the source insisted that the US is still “optimistic” that Ukraine will turn the failing operation around, and that Washington will re-evaluate the offensive next month."

The Russian focus is on the enemy forces, NOT on the terrain. Russia is doing the smart thing, weakening the opponent for as long as it takes with a style of warfare that favors Russia greatly. Why be rushed into offensive actions just because bloggers on Telegram are getting jittery, and sustain losses, when you can easily destroy your opponent from long range indefinitely, then swoop in to finish him off when he’s barely able to resist.

Not only are the NATO forces nowhere near Moscow, but they’ve essentially bounced off what has been described as “a wall of steel”, losing about one-third of their forces in the process. The historical Russian response has been to launch a counteroffensive with far more forces than had been anticipated.

This Ukrainian operational incompetence is intentional, of course. Neither the Fake Ukrainians who nominally run the Kiev regime nor the US-based neoclowns who give them their orders have any interest in sparing the lives of the Ukrainians who are so bravely, and so foolishly, marching obediently into the Russian meatgrinder. The satanic clowns are never happier than when they’re able to arrange a fratricidal European war, and the retarded Ukrainians are reaping the inevitable consequences of obeying foreign rulers who hate them and are ruthlessly sacrificing them in order to preserve the illusion of their global neo-empire.

GloboHomoPedo will continue to remain "optimistic" to the last dead Ukrainian.

The EU tried to back-channel a peace proposal recently, but after being turned by them already (back when they all thought it was going to be a cakewalk), Putin stopped answering his phone.

The Russians know exactly who they are at war with. And anyone who still thinks that's Ukraine is an idiot. Sooner or later, NATO has to either surrender or engage the Russians directly, devoid of any excuses, puppets, or proxies. And that is when we will see the true strength of Clown World revealed.

No wonder the neoclowns are suddenly babbling about diplomacy and the need for negotiations.

we found the glowie

Not the ones that are worth hiring they're not. Do you think Mike Hoare and his boys in 4 Commando would have worked for Patrice Lumumba or the Simbas? Ask if "Executive Outcomes" would have worked for UNITA, or the RUF.

Speaking of whom, just where is ol' Yevgeny? Nobody seems to know, including his own guys.

An "oh crap" situation.

apparently, they did

Sounds like a bunch of bullshit.

Appreciate it, goat!
