    If you have been paying attention to the fronts. There’s maps that if accurate paint a not great picture for Ukraine. Every spot where they gain ground is matched with another spot where they lose.

    The first casualty of war is the truth, and I know I’ve had a very hard time trying to see through the B.S.

    The biggest indicator I’ve read is that US generals have been upset with the speed of the Ukrainian forces. Meaning they’re taking too long to take territory back. Just one example though.

      That’s…a whole lotta nothing that someone could argue from either side of the argument.

      You really just sound like a propaganda worker than an actual person.

        Now you’re being paranoid and rude. They said they have a hard time seeing thru fog of war.

        They’re describing statements from the pentagon & maps from ISW. Quite well. So they clearly are just assuming the negatives both sides admit for themselves are true. That’s a good rational process for a casual observer, no?

        The US top brass is not as rosy on this as Reddit & the Ukrainian MOD &; their twitter OSINTers

          They didn’t describe anything what are you talking about?

          Some general they don’t know said they were upset with the speed of taking territory back, territory they don’t know. It’s the most vague example possible.

          Also you shifted in 2 minutes from “better butter yourself up” to “you’re being rude”. Sorry I’m going to need a second source.

            I mean obviously you don’t know what they were alluding to because you don’t check any source that would even repeat negative stuff Milley says
