    I know Canada has a lot of beavers, but most western militaries don’t usually come close to running out of ammo, especially when we’ve been sending them tens of millions of dollars like four months ago.

    Cass/Aurora sure would get a laugh over all the righties who war-wanked for Iraq suddenly getting all hippie-dippie and spending conscious for Ukraine.
    Almost like they're a bunch of mindless pawns or something.
    Almost like she called it all from the start.

    Why would an internal document include falsehoods?

    Lots of internal documents contain falsehoods, regardless of if they’re the government or not. But that wasn’t what I was asking. I was asking if you actually believed that there no NATO forces in Ukraine.

    Presumably Ukraine is secretly selling them or something? Because other than some batshit conspiracy I can't even see what sort of point FF thinks he's making.

    Or with the "Western militaries don't run out of ammo!" line... most Western militaries haven't recently engaged in full-scale combat against an enemy force this large, at least without air superiority.

    The Chernobyl series implies that there were a bunch of contaminated military vehicles abandoned by the Russian government after the cleanup. Wonder what happened to them and if they’ve been put back in service. They’re probably still radioactive…

    I think the point is that the Ukranians have serious problems, above what is being suggested in the narratives presented to us.

    Also, it is surely a serious breach of public trust to deploy US personnel secretly in a major warzone.

    What evidence do we have that they are deployed?

    Being in country doesn’t mean fighting.

    37 series (Psychological Operations) are USSOF.

    Even at the height of Iraq and Afghanistan there were more 37s operating out of embassies in the rest of the world than on the ground.

    It’s why we got a special clothing allowance every year for buying suits and why we had red passports (official government passport) because the majority of the time 37s work out of embassies.

    Considering the kind of hybrid war this is I would be shocked if there weren’t 37s at the embassy helping the Ukrainians.

    He knows that, but he has to try and spin it in a way that doesn't make Biden look bad. He knows he can't so it's easier to ask me stupid questions to try and distract from the colossal disaster this is.

    Some of them were edited specifically for psyops.

    Russia is always looking for useful idiots.

    Lots of them in the West.

    It’s important to keep in mind that not all of the information may be reliable. Pentagon officials acknowledged that the leaks are indeed legitimate Department of Defense documents, but said that some appear to have been altered. For example, a modified document overstates American estimates of Ukrainian casualties and minimizes estimates of Russian troops killed.

    Yes and the real numbers came out though. Ukraine has been inflating their KIA numbers. It's almost like people have been calling this a grift for several months.

    No. 14th Douche already asked the same damn question and I fucking answered it because I knew this was a question that I would get. You people are fucking predictable. Now fantasy rep this post. Or use another go to "responses".

    That's literally the part I just quoted as being modified.

    If Ukraine loses were 5-1 then Russia would not have been driven from Kyiv, lost huge chunks in the South until the road to Crimea is threatened, and not been able to penetrate Bakhmut.

    They'd be winning.

    The ground captured indicates that isn't the case.

    Nor the fact that Russian soldiers are making videos saying they are being sent to the slaughter and refusing orders.

    It doesn't change the fact that Ukraine hasn't been honest with us and the story we're being told isn't what's really is happening. It also puts into question the Nordsteam pipeline bombing and that bridge bombing which I've suspected was CIA from the get go.

    You should fly over to Ukraine and expose them personally. I'll chip in five bucks towards a plane ticket. :yes:

    Oh, yeah. You showed everyone how you're not qualified to be a low-level bookie, much less a full blown accountant, and everyone laughed at you.
    Thanks for the rerun.
