I've heard talk that the troops in the Ukrainian army has started refusing to fight.
Maybe they're starting to lose all hope, and don't want to die for a lost cause.
Like I told you SM, slowly at first, then quickly.

Baldrick,

There are plenty of pictures of Russians being blown to bits by US weapons so according to you they are peasants.

There won't be photos of the F16s being shot down because the Russian fantasy missile is pretty useless. There are plenty of pictures of Russian aircraft being shot out of the sky, 7 in the last month.

The US economy is 13 times larger than Russia's. Russia's GDP was $2.3T in 2013 and is 1.8T today and is predicted to drop by 2.5% in 2023 despite running a huge deficit. Russia's oil and gas revenue has more than halved.

Russian airlines are running out of spare parts and are now having frequent failures. It is only a matter of time before they start falling out of the sky.

Russian equipment and soldiers are rotting in the fields in huge quantities.

Russia is losing this war.

"There are plenty of pictures of Russians being blown to bits by US weapons so according to you they are peasants."
- We'll we don't seem to see those missiles shown dropping buildings in Israel and those huge explosions occurring in Ukraine.

"There won't be photos of the F16s being shot down because the Russian fantasy missile is pretty useless. There are plenty of pictures of Russian aircraft being shot out of the sky, 7 in the last month."
- Russia shot down 25 aircraft in 5 days, and Zelensky is begging for the F-16s.

- I'm not sure this is the bigger picture here, you'll have to watch that Michael Hudson video I posted last night, I think he said GDP isn't the best measure.

The US is in big trouble.
They're paying well over 1 trillion in interest a year now and it's going up rapidly. 40% of tax receipts are used to pay off debt, their last treasury note sale was a failure, Saudi Arabia is moving away from the US and they face another US shutdown soon.

"Russian airlines are running out of spare parts and are now having frequent failures. It is only a matter of time before they start falling out of the sky."
- Russia are building their own commercial aircraft now.

China has also built it's own, so Russia probably doesn't need western aircraft as badly as you think it does.

"Russian equipment and soldiers are rotting in the fields in huge quantities."
- Maybe so, but nowhere near as much as the Ukrainians.

Baldrick,

The only "aircraft" that Russia has shot down in the last month are a few drones not one piloted aircraft. You have not been able to produce any evidence. P.S. Another Russian SU25 was shot down yesterday.

As for the Russian-built passenger jets, the first one has taken its maiden flight but no more are expected until they can access components from the West. Likewise, China has only produced one. There is no realistic replacement for Russia's 550 western-built jets.

As for US economic data, you really should stop repeating the bollocks you read on Twitter. The US tax revenues are roughly $5bn federally and $5bn at the state level so the 40% is just more of your bullsh1t.

At the moment the Russians are losing about 10x as many men and pieces of equipment as the Ukrainians as they are attacking over open fields against entrenched positions.

I see that Russia had another go at Vuledar and lost 180 tanks and vehicles and a few 100s of soldiers.

Baldrick,

I see that Russia is losing so much equipment and ammunition that their dear leader Putin has to allocate 40% of the Russian budget to the war.

So much for health care, schooling pensions etc.

I'm sure that the public is thrilled with their increasing poverty and their menfolk coming home in coffins or pieces.

I see that Ukraine is losing Avdiivka,
- as expected.
