The Fourth Phase of Russia’s Special Military Operation Has Begun

by

Western media outlets claimed that the third phase of the war began with the Ukrainian offensives in the first half of September. I strongly disagree. Rather, these offensives marked the end of the third phase, and they failed to achieve their intended goals. The upcoming referendum in the Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia regions to join the Russian Federation, this is the beginning of the fourth phase. It also appears that back in August I correctly predicted the objectives of Ukraine’s offensives, and it seems they utterly failed.

The Great Class War of Ukraine, Through the Eyes of a Liberal

Today I came across a well-written article in the New York Times, The ‘Wild Field’ Where Putin Sowed the Seeds of War. A well-written propaganda piece masquerading as a news story.

The Ukraine September Offensives, an After Action Review

It’s been a crazy month. On 31 August I very cautiously suggested that the Ukrainian attacks are meant to disrupt and destabilize Russian operations.

We need to remember that the battles happening in Ukraine right now are one small piece of the big picture, and not even the most important piece.

It’s been a while since I have posted here. I feel that blogging is futile for me. No one cares, no one will listen. It’s discouraging. The [western] world is ready for another Bucha because this world needs to see Russians as cruel creatures who only “look like Europeans, but are not” ©. Another tiny step further, and they will gladly state that Russians are not humans.
