All the time, US media have tried to tweak and belie the situation in Ukraine to hide Russian progress and portray Russia as a loser. Now, they cannot hide Russia’s success anymore.

US media are today forced to admit that Russia is a success and has the upper hand in Ukraine. 

Mr. Putin spoke from a position of relative strength.

Russian forces fended off Ukraine’s counteroffensive this year and are now attacking in several areas along the front line, and military production in Russia is ramping up.

At the same time, Ukraine faces some of the steepest challenges of the war, deadlocked on the battlefield and urgently seeking to shore up Western support. 

New York Times, December 14  

Efforts from Biden, Sullivan, and US media to shoehorn new packages of money through Congress to Ukraine are a scam.

Nothing for Ukraine has worked for the US so far. On the contrary, the situation for America and the EU in Ukraine has only become worse and worse.

The US and NATO supplied Ukraine with everything they had in military, money, and diplomatic support. It didn’t help.

Ukraine is devastated, mired in coup-plots in Kiev, and running out of men to let die.

US and NATO military stocks are depleted.

Western populations don’t want to see Zelensky or hear about Ukraine no more.

The West has abused Ukraine in efforts to destroy Russia – instead, Russia has come out stronger than ever.

What a fiasco for the West.

This is the complete moral, military, and political defeat of the US and the West.

Next comes Israel.
