Moon of Alabama has proven to be a reliable source of reporting on the conflict in Ukraine. The posting of November 23 indicates that some part of the Russian government or military has finally realized that Russia is at war.

The eight-month old Kremlin policy of protecting Ukraine from attack, thus helping Ukraine to conduct war against the Russian forces, seems to have come to an end. The infrastructurepower, transportation, waterof Ukraine is being shut down. The real war Russian attacks on Ukraines ability to function have gradually escalated, resulting in wider and more serious damage. It seems that the Russians dont want to destroy everything unless the West and its puppet Ukraine government fail to come to their senses.
The Western whore media, of course, doesnt report the true situation. The Western presstitutes are a propaganda ministry and have created a picture of Russian defeat. It would be difficult to identify the worst liar in the Western media as there are endless candidates, but the UK Telegraphs Charles Moore is a leading candidate for posting the most far-fetched reports: See, for example, Vladimir Putins only hope now is to terrify the West into negotiating away Ukraines victories. www.telegraph.co.uk/news/...vladimir-putins-hope-now- terrify-west-negotiating-away-ukraines/ The Telegraph also tells us that Ukraine could reach Crimea by Christmas www.telegraph.co.uk/world...1/19/ukraine-news-russia- war-latest-putin-missiles-severodonetsk/? li_source=LI&li_medium=liftigniter-rhr
American so-called Russian experts spread the same delusions.
Consequently, the Western peoples have a totally false picture of the situation. Russia could destroy Ukraine in a day without using nuclear weapons. The Kremlins restraintin my view a strategic blunder as it enabled the West to get involved and widen the warin Ukraine has a number of legitimate reasons. Ukraine and the population there have been a part of Russia for centuries. There is much intermarriage. Most Ukrainians are not favorable to the neo-Nazis who have dominated Ukraine since the US overthrew the government in 2014 and have suffered at their hands. The Kremlin doesnt want a poverty-stricken ruin of a country on its border, and the Kremlin doesnt want the responsibility for rebuilding Ukraines infrastructure.
It is inconceivable to me that experts and reporters in the West are so stupid and corrupt to have written the ridiculous accounts of the conflict that bear their names. It is total nonsense and has encouraged the false belief that Russia can be defeated and that Ukraine can be in Crimea by Christmas.
That such absurd propaganda can be effective can result in the US/NATO putting boots on the ground, and then we have World War III.
From Washingtons standpoint, the more Ukraine is destroyed the better. If Putin finally abandons his half-way measures and gets down to real war, the war will soon be over. If Washington can prevent Zelensky from surrendering until Ukraine is destroyed, Washington gets the benefit of the economic and financial drain on Russia that rebuilding will impose. From Washingtons standpoint, the more problems for Russia the better regardless of the cost to Ukrainians.
What we are witnessing is the enormous inhumanity of Washington and the NATO capitals. It is unjust that it is Ukraine that is paying the cost of Western inhumanity and not Washington and the European capitals.
