Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital
Bkk Brian replied to Chris.B's topic in The War in Ukraine
You should have looked at the link he provided: "The military is hesitating as to whether this is a trap by the Russian army. However, after consulting and carefully inspecting the enemy positions, they agree: the Russian soldier is indeed waving a "white flag", signalling that he wants to surrender. At first, the video was published with the remark that it was taken in Donetsk region. However, OSINT researchers carried out geolocation and learned that the event took place in Kherson region near the village of Pravdino." -

Or they may refer to the Russian lawmakers who in July blamed the Ukraine resistance on its biologically modified Ukrainian super soldiers. ???? Russian lawmakers baselessly claim their army is up against biologically modified Ukrainian super soldiers Two Russian lawmakers this week pushed the absurd conspiracy theory that Ukrainians were being turned into "cruel and deadly monsters" in the country's bio labs.

Moscow Officials Urge Putin to GTFO: ‘Everything Went Wrong’ Just one day after several municipal deputies in Putin’s hometown of St. Petersburg called on the State Duma to try the Russian leader for treason, their colleagues in Moscow joined in and demanded he step down because his views are “hopelessly outdated.” “We ask you to relieve yourself of your post due to the fact that your views and your governance model are hopelessly outdated and hinder the development of Russia and its human potential,” the deputies said in closing. Even the pro-Kremlin Telegram channels run by Russian military bloggers had a dramatic change of tune as Ukraine claimed new wins Saturday: They began to openly blast military leadership—and Putin personally—for the embarrassing failures. https://www.thedailybeast.com/moscow-officials-urge-vladimir-putin-to-give-up-power?ref=scroll

Ukraine Pulled Off a Masterstroke, Ukrainian leaders announced one counteroffensive against Russia—but had another in the works. This stunning Ukrainian advance was anything but sudden. It resulted from a patient military buildup, excellent operational security, and, maybe most important, the diversion of some of the Russian army’s most powerful units from Kharkiv Oblast itself. The overall planning by the Ukrainian government and armed forces worked well on so many levels that it produced one of the greatest military-strategy successes since 1945. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2022/09/ukraine-russia-putin-kharkiv-kupyansk/671407/ -
Disturbing what some gullible people believe, this guy killed his wife and nearly killed his daughter because of taking in some of the very dangerous conspiracy theories promoted on QAnon. To the point that he believed some world leaders were alien lizard people, he forced his family to watch videos on 5G cell towers, vaccines and the election. As his daughter said: “But then after 2020, when Trump lost, he started going down these crazy rabbit holes.” The article also cites other horrendous murders carried out because of people believing the crazy theories, including "A California man who allegedly murdered his 10-month-old daughter and 2-year-old son in Mexico told police that his crimes were motivated by QAnon"

Would you prefer they referred to it as "The Big Election Lie"? both mean the same thing but send in suggestions on a postcard. However Trump prefers the term "The Big Lie" Former President Donald Trump on Monday announced he’ll begin to use the term “the big lie” – commonly used by his critics to describe his baseless election fraud claims – to refer to the 2020 election results, a sign he has no plans to tone down his rhetoric as one social media platform adjudicates his suspension. https://www.forbes.com/sites/andrewsolender/2021/05/03/trump-says-hell-appropriate-the-big-lie-to-refer-to-his-election-loss/?sh=147e1eb95584

Would you like some more up to dates ones as well? They don't even contain the "Big Lie" in the headlines but I'm sure you'll find something to discard them: 1st Sept 2022 Americans Are Increasingly Fearful That Democracy Will Collapse More Americans are concerned that democracy in the U.S. is in danger of collapse, according to a new poll from Quinnipiac University. The poll's findings, which were published on Wednesday, come ahead of President Joe Biden's scheduled prime-time address to the nation on Thursday night. Biden is expected to address threat to democracy during the speech. 1st Sept 2022 Americans continue to feel U.S. democracy is under threat Americans continue to believe democracy and the rule of law are under threat — a view that's remained high over the last year and is at 72% today — though they believe that for an assortment of reasons. The influence of money in politics tops the list of reasons, among those who feel it is threatened. The potential for political violence concerns most across party lines. Two-thirds cite people trying to overturn elections as a major threat. Just under half of Americans believe a major threat comes from people voting illegally, but this view is held by a majority of Republicans .

Exclusive: Russian soldiers 'literally running' for their lives as chain of command collapses Ukraine intelligence unit tells The Telegraph they are struggling to deal with the mountains of equipment left behind after rout In the face of a shock Ukrainian offensive, the Russian chain of command has been broken and soldiers were fleeing without putting up a fight, many of them changing into civilian clothes to avoid detection, a commander told The Telegraph. And the speed of the offensive had even taken their own army by surprise, with Ukrainian troops struggling to recover the mountains of Russian ammunition and armoured vehicles left behind, according to one drone operator. https://web.archive.org/web/20220911141331/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2022/09/11/exclusive-russian-soldiers-literally-running-lives-chain-command/ -
It can be a pleasure to watch Russian State TV sometimes, this is one of those times. ???? Video highlights in link with English subs Life comes at you fast: pundits on Russian TV realize that their military is failing and their country is in trouble. They are starting to play the blame game. Some of them finally understand that their genocidal denial of the Ukrainian identity isn't working in Russia's favor. "We are now at the point that we know we cannot beat Ukraine" I think Putin should rename this the Special Military Defeat Operation
