My article was published on RT about what is happening on the flanks of Artemovsk. Just a few days ago, when Kleshcheyevka was being handed over in a telegram, I visited Artemovsk itself and west of Kleshcheyevka at the positions of the 1st motorized rifle battalion of the 4th Brigade of the 2nd AK and Storm Z. Read about how things really are in my report. https://russian.rt.com/ussr/article/1173025-artyomovsk-flangi-kontrnastuplenie

The western bourgeois project undermined itself by isolating pariah states and allowing them to develop their own national bourgeois. That ship sailed a decade ago. What we're talking about is something even more ideological, and stupid.

Yeah uhh I dunno how to say this nicely but my guy when it comes down to it you are a tool of the western ruling class and they will expend you without a second thought. Which is what they are doing to everyone (volunteered or pressganged into) Ukrainian service right now.

They don't give a gently caress about your life. Not mine either, but you voluntarily made it easier for them to use yours all the way up if they think they can gain something from it.

Wait, I thought they already had training arrangements for UA pilots and were quibbling over who was going to supply the F-16s. Are they just now signing a memorandum to someday set up a school, with the question of the F-16s themselves still unsettled?

Are they planning for the Spring '24 offensive?

Suicide bombing is an objectively successful method because it yanks your k/d ratio way up and you can ruin some important assets. In this case they're sticking their own asses out to bait Russian artillery into destroying assets that can be rebuilt with a shovel, and they're only killing themselves.

We've already broken the Forbidden Weapon norm and went whole-hog for a philosophical defense of any kind of weapon, so why not? Hell, give them our old chemical and bio weapon stockpiles while we're at it.

Of course I’m pretty sure that until 1992 the plan was still to nuke West Germany anyway.

I’m not seeing that mentioned at all with Poland or the Baltics, which is kinda weird if NATO perceived a real, defensive, threat.

well how are things ??

quote:

"The enemy is trying to conduct a counter-offensive, we are cutting off the attempts. There is heavy artillery shelling, using multiple rocket launch systems. A counter-battery fight is being conducted against them. There are attempts by infantry, we cut those attempts off. We have artillery, too, and we're working with tanks. Our guys bit into the positions and are holding on tight, not letting the enemy through. They're trying to pass in small infantry groups, and with the use of small armored groups - on average a few combat vehicles supported by a tank, one or two. We respond to this. We are working,"

This is from a few pages back, but would you happen to know how West Germany, and NATO in general, reacted to the US deploying 50 Davy Crocketts to Berlin because the Soviets asked an American general to carry ID if he expects to be afforded privileges of being an American general when out of uniform in and in a private car?

Under these conditions, our guys, together with Ukrainian commanders, developed the tactics of "mosquito" advance – continuous attacks on Russian positions by small tactical groups of Ukrainian infantry. The Russians, who are much more sensitive to losses in manpower, try to avoid close ("contact") battles and, when the Ukrainians go to their trenches, withdraw, leaving the artillery to destroy the enemy. This usually succeeds-Ukrainians die or retreat.

But this tactic has a positive effect. Several such attacks almost completely destroy the Russian position, and most often with their own fire, after which the Russians are forced to withdraw to a new line, where this tactic is repeated. This is how the Russians were pushed back three miles from the strategic position of Makarovka in two weeks. And this tactic is constantly being improved. Our people believe that, with the continued pace of such progress, in two weeks the Ukrainians will be able to overcome the Russian support zone and start storming their main line of defense, while maintaining the offensive potential of their strongest brigades. Perhaps this is what our Milli meant when he said yesterday about the ten weeks of the Ukrainian offensive.
