Ukraine will lose if the west doesn’t intervene
It is difficult to tell which side is winning the war with the massive misinformation campaign being waged in the west.
Ukraine makes up stuff as it goes along posting often complete
distortions so one comes to believe they are fighting a field of dreams
conflict, relying on the hope if they say it often enough it will come true.
They need to convince the US, EU and others they can hold
off the Russians while at the same time pray the west will intervene on their
behalf.
This duality suggests they know they are losing and are in
desperate need of Devine intervention.
The fact that people are fleeing Ukraine by the millions
adds evidence to this.
Yes, they have slowed the Russian advance but at a great
cost.
Winning a war is about attrition. The side with the most
resources generally wins. The Persian gulf wars also showed control of the air
is the ultimate advantage
While Russia is losing as much Ukraine, it has more to lose.
And while less motivated than the Ukrainians the sheer number of Russians will
eventually overwhelm them even with volunteers from the west.
Although news feeds keep talking about how many Russians have
died or surrendered, the fact is Russia has the third largest standing army in
the world – about one million regular military and two million in reserves.
News from the west keeps harping about the fact that 100
percent of the troops Russia put on the border are engaged in the conflict in Ukraine,
failing to point out that this is but a fraction of the numbers Russia could
put into the country at need.
The Russians have degraded the Ukraine military
infrastructure. The air force and airfields largely gone. Nearly 1000 tanks destroyed. Military
installations wiped out. While the west sends missiles Ukraine may soon run out
of men to shoot them – even with the volunteers coming in to help.
Ukraine talks about the Russian conscripts used, neglecting
to point out for the most part Ukrainian males are not allowed to flee the
country suggesting they will be forced to fight later.
Since Russian news has been banned on western social media
and other sites, we hear almost exclusively the propaganda coming out of
Ukraine, much of which is gobbled up by major media as fact when in a large
part it is fiction – Ukrainians putting on a happy face – or a lot of fear
mongering about nuclear sites. most of it untrue and exaggerated reports of
Russians killed or captured but nothing about Ukrainian military casualties
most likely as high As those of the Russians with few or any to replace them.
Russians are using long range weapons to reduce loss in men
and equipment. The Ukrainians cannot. They have put everything on the line and
when it is gone, they have to fill in with what the west ships them. But inch
by inch, they are falling back, forced to abandon positions, often shooting
from residential places and hospitals which when the Russians fire back, become
fodder for the propaganda machine, showing how horrible the Russians are.
Slowly day by day both sides wear each other down, only the
Russians have more to work with and those on the ground on both sides know it.
Unless the west intervene, Ukraine loses.
