Eventually, Putin and the Russian leadership will tire of the Kiev regime’s constant attempts to create a general European war (thus bringing in NATO on the “Ukrainian” side) and will take devastating action. Then, maybe, “goodnight Kiev”.
At present, Russian forces are not doing that, for strategic, positional reasons, i.e. in the hope or expectation that the American and EU practical support for the KIev regime (arms, ammunition, medical aid, food aid, money, other assistance) will soon tail off and then stop.
Ukraine may face a future in which its few successes will be in the Paralympics.
“Ukraine’s “Ministry of Defense approved a new Schedule of Diseases, according to which fitness for military service is assessed and regulated the service of those with limited fitness.”
Now people with following diseases will be recognized as suitable for all military service: “2nd – clinically cured tuberculosis; 4-c – viral hepatitis with minor functional impairment; 5th – asymptomatic HIV carrier; 12th – slowly progressing and non-progressing with minor functional disorders and rare exacerbations of anemia, blood coagulation disorders, purpura, hemorrhagic conditions, other diseases of the blood and hematopoietic organs, some disorders involving the immune mechanism. 13th – diseases of the endocrine system with minor functional disorders; 14th – mild short-term painful manifestations of mental disorders; 17th – neurotic, stress-related and somatoform disorders with moderately pronounced, short-term manifestations, with an asthenic state; 21-c – slowly progressing diseases of the central nervous system with minor functional disorders; 22nd – episodic and paroxysmal disorders, except for epilepsy, with minor violations of the functions of organs and systems.” https://pravda.com.ua/news/2023/09/3/7418270/
Not so much Dad’s Army as a Ukrainian conflation of Carry on Doctor and Carry on up the Khyber. A dystopian and very black comedy, appropriate perhaps, looking at the Jew Zelensky’s background in cheap TV comedy.
“My comment to leading Portuguese newspaper concerning replacement of defense minister of Ukraine by Zelensky: Zelensky replaced his defense minister for two main reasons.
The first involves corruption scandals with procurement for the military. The Ukrainian media reported that the Ministry of Defense bought at highly inflated prices eggs and jackets for the military. Zelensky by firing Reznikov wanted to show to Ukrainians and to the Biden administration and the US Congress before his visit to the US that he is keen on fighting corruption in military procurement and the use of the massive US military aid to Ukraine.
The second reason is to make Reznikov the fall guy for the failure of the counteroffensive to reach the objectives and take back Donbas and Crimea that Zelensky promised.
The new defense minister is selected primarily for PR reasons. He is a Crimean Tatar and a Muslim. Zelensky wants to showcase the drive to take back the Russian-annexed Crimea and appeal to the Muslim Crimean Tatar minority in Crimea. And the appointment of the Muslim defense minister is designed to sway Muslim countries, many of which tried to remain relatively neutral and did not join the Western sanctions against Russia for the invasion of Ukraine.
The replacement of the defense minister is a largely a political and PR move by Zelensky aimed at the US, Ukrainians, and the Crimean Tatars and Muslims. It is unlikely to change or influence the war’s outcome.
There is virtually zero chance of the Ukrainian forces take back Donbas and Crimea. As the Ukrainian counteroffensive attempt confirms, Russia has a significant military advantage over Ukraine. Russia can also resort to use of nuclear weapons in the very unlikely case that its hold over Crimea would be threatened.“
Exactly.

Exactly. What is now the very point of the Labour Party? To be an “alternative” to the (equally) useless “Conservative” Party? Labour will be pretty much the same, overall, as this Sunak government, in practice. Unsurprising, though, given that both parties are pretty much under the same kind of (((control)))…
Less than 7 weeks later, Liz Truss was gone, together with Woollyhead Trussbanger (Kwasi Kwarteng).

Does anything in the UK work properly any more?
Having said that, when I was a London barrister in the early 1990s, I had a judicial review case involving a supposed former member of the Angolan security service. He was being held in Wandsworth Prison, which I visited for a “conference” (discussion with the individual), my only visit to that prison.
Though the staff were polite (to me), I could see that, even in the part of the prison where we were (a kind of bleak side-room, not the usual sort of “legal suite”) that Wandsworth was a pretty grim, and rather grubby place. I could see prisoners in a larger interior space nearby being exercized, walking slowly round in a large circle. The prisoner I came to visit, some time later in the month, and fearing extradition back to Angola, apparently tried to kill himself, according to his solicitor. The conditions cannot have helped his state of mind.

This winter, Ukraine’s infrastructure will be reduced to rubble: electricity, district heating, railways, government buildings. The pressure may lead to further flight overseas, or to an overthrow of the corrupt, shambolic, and increasingly brutal and tyrannical Zelensky Jew-Zionist regime.
When the frost comes and the ground is hard, there may be a very large-scale Russian armoured thrust towards Kharkov or even Kiev.
Note the very non-European gesturing…
In any decent country, a corrupt bastard like that, profiting from war supplies in time of war, and while hundreds of thousands of his own soldiers were being killed, wounded or captured, would be shot after a brief trial.
A very interesting graphic, showing the effect of political change or upheaval (eg the Cultural Revolution in 1960s/1970s China) as well as the effects of agricultural technological innovation (eg the Green Revolution of the 1960s).
Interesting, also, that the geographically small UK has mostly stayed within the top 15 exporters, even if near the bottom of the table.
There will be huge social effects (an even lower birth rate within Ukraine), and also military effects (a smaller pool of potential soldiers).
Ukraine, as presently constituted, has little future.
The last thing the Zelensky cabal and regime wants is a free election.
“Rosenblat“? Ha ha! When will they ever learn?
“Since 2015, the Security Service of Ukraine has had a special department specializing in murders of people undesirable for the Kyiv regime, said the former director of the SBU Valentin Nalivaichenko in an interview with “Ekonomist”.
“We reluctantly came to the conclusion that we have to eliminate people,” he said.
According to his statements, the Fifth Administration of the SBU, which conducts operations of this type, participated in the murder of the first head of the DNR, Alexander Zakharchenko, and the commanders of the “Sparta” and “Somalia” battalions, Arsen Pavlov and Mikhail Tolstikh.”
So much for “free” “democratic” Ukraine…
