Dispatch from in theatre by objective western observers

😂 remember when fools like Tom Nichols, Michael McFaul and David betrayus were saying that this is gonna be super easy?

We laughed at Russians during the invasion

Time to laugh in equal measure

Ukraine needs to either get air superiority or surrender.

Literally none of them said it was going to be easy. [/quote]

You cannot possibly belittle the level of cheerleading that was happening for the Ukrainian counteroffensive in the spring.  It was all like variations of "look out , big bad Vlad, here comes counteroffensive with most excellent modern precise weaponry and they will take out your low-moraled, WW2-era, obsolete ineffective equipment and you will be crushed!"  Literally not a single word of that was true.

I've said that before on this very thread.   The coverage of this war is pure propaganda that is easily discernible even to an under-educated eye.  Consider these two very present themes:

1.  The Russian military is hanging by a thread, they are conscripting prisoners, they are fighting badly, morale is low, the country is in discontent, they are fighting with their bare hands, they are running out of everything!

and

2.  We need billions kazillions for the most modern powerful weaponry NATO can find or else Russians will be in Kyiv today and scaling La Tour Eiffel tomorrow!

Literally these two things cannot be true at the same time.  Even an idiot can see that. Yet you have our very able commentariat shamelessly mention them in the same breath.  Like, how?

And now summer in full swing and there is little to show for it.  Honestly, it would have been better if this counteroffensive hasn't been talked up that much.  It would have been less embarrassing.[/quote]
