Even U.S. Military Experts Now Admit That Ukraine Is Losing The War

We’ve all been fed a steady stream of propaganda by Ukraine and the White House since the War in Ukraine began.

Remember how the Ukrainian “volunteers” in camo holding automatic rifles all looked like Vogue fashion models? Turns out they were models, and the photos were all posed for propaganda purposes.

Remember the videos of Russian tanks being blown up? Turns out many of those videos were of the same tank filmed from different angles and being shown over and over to create the impression of success against Russian armor.

On the ground, Ukrainian volunteers are being killed in large numbers, and many others are wounded, have deserted, or have surrendered to the Russians.

You wouldn’t know any of this if you relied on mainstream U.S. media. Yet, now the situation for Ukraine is so dire that even Western experts are starting to admit that Russia is winning, and Ukraine’s prospects are that it will lose large parts of its territory, including most of its industrial and natural resource capacity.

This article by a retired U.S. Marine Corps colonel and deputy commander of Special Operations Command is a case in point. The article deals candidly with Russian success on the battlefield.

The Russian push has been slow and brutal, but it is producing results, including Russian control of about one-third of Ukraine, the entire coast of the Sea of Azov, and major steel facilities in cities such as Mariupol. It also describes how the Armed Forces of Ukraine are being seriously depleted and are having difficulty maintaining a troop presence on the front lines in Eastern Ukraine.

Finally, the article is critical of Ukrainian delusions that they can push the Russians out and reclaim territory that has already been lost. As a retired U.S. military officer, the author does make a pitch for more weapons systems to be sent to Ukraine. Still, the reality on the ground is that even when these systems are delivered to Ukraine (which is a daunting logistical task), they are often blown up by Russian missiles, stuck in depots because they cannot be moved to the front, or cannot be used by untrained Ukrainian troops if they do make it to the front.

Experts and those who have developed good sourcing have known that Ukraine would lose from the start of this war. Now, even the U.S. military and mainstream media are coming to the same conclusion.

Just because Ukraine will lose the war does not mean the war will be over quickly. As long as the U.S. and NATO-member weapons shipments keep coming, the Ukrainian forces may continue the fight.

Still, casualties are high. It does appear that Biden is willing to fight to the last Ukrainian. That’s a tragedy for Ukraine and for the world.
