    All of the corporate legacy mainstream media are scripted and FOS. They are designed to sway the mass's perspective in whichever way the narrative is directed to go. Those who you mention are outside of the usual mould. That is why many would consider them as a "talking head".

    Have you ever watched a Russian show where the criticism of Putin has been very severe, not only in his special military operation and not being hard enough on Ukraine, but especially when he retained Elvira Nebellina a few years back as the head of the Russian Central bank. Yet for all the criticism towards her methods, Putin made the right choice because she saved Russia from the sanctions.

    When you realise that specific targets were the objectives and a force the size enough to achieve the objectives can't be taken out of context. As the Russians did not use all of their forces to accomplish what they have done so far.

    What about the Russians buying weaponry from Iran and China? If they deliberately under-utilized their "forces", why do they have to buy weaponry from those countries?

    Those people hardly exist yet MSDNC would have their brain dead viewers think they were every where. Please try to diversify you media co sumption a bit just to look outside of your echo chamber.

    I have seen you can be intelligent on topics but some how on certain partisan issues you go wild and become disconnected from reality. It is good to at least talk and listen to the other side if for no other reason than to be informed about what their actual positions really are. That way your b.s. detector stays sharp when propagandists try to lie and smear. As the kids say it is good to let your feet touch grass once in a while.

    A Special Military Operation means that Russia is limited in what it does. According to Scott Ritter the former UN Inspector, when a nation goes into another country, their army should be 3 times the size of the defending army. Yet Russia went into Ukraine with only 200 thousand men when the Ukrainian army consisted of 700 thousand men.

    The Russian attacks, rather than being on civilian infrastructure like ours in Iraq so the people would suffer, were solely on military installations and oil reserves. In 3 days Russia destroyed 2 thousand and this is why Zalensky was ready to accept peace, but was told not to by Biden and Boris Johnson.

    Since the bombing of the Crimean bridge, Russia's operation has changed from a Special Military Operation to an anti terrorism one, thus Russia's recent attacks on the civilian infrastructure in Ukraine.

    How do you know that Russia bought weapons from Iran and China, since it comes from the MSM propaganda networks, and both countries deny it as well as Russia. I believe it was retired Army Colonel Douglas Macgregor who said that Russia has enough arms to continue their massive bombardments for 9 months straight.

    Shut down is not the same as destroy.You can shut something down by making it economically unfeasible to operate.

    They have captured the Iranian drones as well as gathered parts of downed ones. That Russia had to resort to buying from laughably primitive 3rd world suppliers is not creditable disputed. I understand you dislike that factual reality but it is reality none the less.

    It really speaks to how Russia just can't produce anything for itself these days. Hell, Russia cannot even make a quote of T-62 tanks which are an obsolete 60 year old design. Putin has been threatening people because output is so low yet it is the best the dwarf state can accomplish as anything more advanced is now beyond their capabilities.

    “ Criticising Putin for not being tough enough with his war against Ukraine is like Hitler being criticized for not being tough enough on Jews.

    Why would the main stream media lie about something like that which is so easily confirmable or disproveable?

    Because they've been or are persecuted by the US. The trio share one major factor common denominator between them, the US. Why do they (Russia) under-utilise their forces? They don't need the the full force of their military to achieve their goals, in particular, Ukraine.

    They don't. The poster behind that account just rapists Putinist lies. Same as it ever was. Thus why that poster literally posts Kremlin press releases yet "forgets" to post the link showing it is propaganda out of Putin's Kremlin.

    Another poster caught "her" deception though using Google.

    There you are caught in an exaggeration since I feel kind today.
    “According to the International Institute of Strategic Studies (IISS), Ukraine had 196,600 active military personnel when the invasion began on 24 February. This split into: 125,600 ground troops. 35,000 air personnel.”
    Putin believed his own lies that Ukrainians would great the Moskhailiy with flowers and open arms so he underestimated Ukrainian resistance.

    Calling a war a “ special military operation” is just another Putin lie.

    They have been training loads of new ones over the last eight months with NATO helping to train and equip them. The UK alone has trained and equipped 40,000 with another 10,000 being trained and equipped as we speak. Poland, France, and now Germany is also taking part.

    Last I head there were around 360,000 fully trained regulars in service with twice that in the area defensive reserve units. The Russian soldiers do not lie in their phone calls home about being outnumbered by a superior, better trained, and better equipped force.

    The point of my post was to the proRussian person with screen name Jeannette who claimed that at the start of Putin’s war Ukraine had 700,000 strong army. If that was the case Ukraine at 9 months down the road would have had @1,000,000 strong army. It was just an excuse why Moskhailiy were doing badly with ground troops.

    Trading partners. In this case military hardware and further trade of other wares and goods in the future. Notice the history the US has and had with these three?

    The tap to Nordstream II was closed and all Germany or Russia had to do to stop the gas from flowing, was to close the tap on Nordstream I as well. There were major protests going on in Germany for both taps to be opened and to better relations with Russia. There was also a real fear that the government in Germany would fall, so what better way for Washington to stop the protests than by destroying the pipelines?

    Anyone who believes it was not the US that blew them up has to be a complete idiot.
