KURSK: UKRAINE’S LAST THROW OF THE DICE

It is always a pitiful sight for those who frequent casinos to see some poor, addicted slob double down his bets and lose EVERYTHING. How much more pitiful to see an iniquitous regime throw away the lives of its citizens in something very similar.

The Kiev regime led by a second rate comedian who has not been funny at any time over the last two and a half years and who is nearing the end of his tether as well as his tenure, is on its last legs, propped up only by equally loathsome western sponsors. Zelnsky’s initial welcome as a peacemaker wore out long, long ago. Within months of becoming president of Ukraine he became a reckless warmonger and he has stayed that way until now.

Goaded into war by sponsors intent on weakening Russia and furthering their war against the peaceful nations rising to take away their global dominance the USA, UK and their European allies, used Ukraine as a tool and pawn to do their bidding. The result has been the death or grievous wounding of around half a million Ukrainian troops.

Beaten across every area of conflict up and down the Donbass battlelines Zelensky has insisted on national suicide via the incursion of his last best troops into the Kursk region of Russia. After a week or so we see that this reckless gamble has predictably failed. Zelensky’s hapless troops have been contained in almost every area where they have brought their unwanted presence. Though the goal of the incursion, reaching and capturing the Kursk nuclear power plant is now clearly beyond their reach there will be no withdrawal. Zelensky will insist, for appearances sake, that they remain… and die.

Already many Ukrainian troops are choosing to surrender rather than fight a hopeless battle against the Russian troops closing in all around them. Russia is using its drone squadrons to precisely locate every West-supplied vehicle within the region and destroy it along with any Ukrainian troops within them. In the last twenty-four hours alone a desperate Kiev regime has sent and lost six Patriot missile batteries near the Kursk battlelines. There is zero hope of any success for the Kursk mission. When, in the first few days, Kiev’s troops failed to take the small town of Sudzha (5,000-6,000 inhabitants) which it must have been thought would provide easy pickings. This was the first sign that things were not going to plan.

Despite reportedly being trained in Britain, the Ukrainians and associated British, American and Polish mercenaries (or sheep-dipped NATO troops) have failed in their task. They did take quite a number of small villages while failing to take Sudzha, but what kind of “victories” were these? They were what is termed ‘Pyrrhic Victories’, no real victory at all. A few vehicles comprising a small number of troops in fast-moving raiding parties drove around claiming to ‘take’ villages that offered no resistance to them. The only change these “bold warriors” made was in the flag flying over the village’s town hall, if it even had one. Meanwhile Russia drew up its plans against them.

Over the last two days we have seen the Ukrainian interlopers pushed back and destroyed in ever more locations. They have stopped trying to move forward in most places, unable to make any further inroads and suffering heavy losses. Unable to leave due to Kiev’s insistence they stay, fight and die they are either surrendering or seeking to fight on in areas where Russian support is still not as strong as it has been encountered elsewhere. The devastating knowledge must surely be permeating every thick Ukrainian skull by now that they will either never leave Russia or only to be taken prisoner and exchanged for Russian troops held captive in Ukraine.

The conflict in the Kursk region will continue for some time yet no doubt. It was Zelensky’s last throw of the dice, his last effort to double down. His sponsors in Washington, London, Brussels, Berlin and elsewhere will continue to double down, providing some replacement vehicles and the next game-changing doomed to fail superweapon. They are nearing their very last throw of the dice also. How so? Because Russia is now powering forward across the Donbass line of contact and especially so in the Avdeevka area where the town of Niu York is about to be liberated and then the city of Toretsk. Soon after the town of Pokrovsk will fall, the most strategically important town in the region, a logistic and transport hub for the regime that is vital for conveying troops and weaponry to the various battlefonts. Without Pokrovst the ability for the Ukrainian military to continue to the level of readiness required will be severely degraded.

Zelensky is desperate. Zelensky’s sponsors are also desperate. Both sources of evil see defeat and humiliation on the horizon. Yet instead of saving lives by admitting their defeat they will callously urge the hapless Ukrainian troops on from the comfort of their armchairs safely back in their capitals. They don’t want to be the ones who are in office when the hammer is finally brought down. So, they cynically double down instead. And push the date of humiliation and total defeat further down the road… a road littered by the dead bodies of those they sent uselessly to fight in an unwinnable war.
