MYKOLAIV REGION, Ukraine - On the front line in southeast Ukraine, there is little sign that a major counteroffensive is brewing.
For weeks, Western intelligence and military analysts have predicted that a Ukrainian campaign to retake the strategic port city of Kherson and surrounding territory is imminent. But in trenches less than a mile from Russia's positions in the area, Ukrainian soldiers hunker down from an escalating onslaught of artillery, with little ability to advance.

But time is slipping if Ukraine is to meet President Volodymyr Zelensky's stated goal of winning the war by the end of the year, and the current situation on the ground raises the prospect of a long, grinding stalemate instead. Residents who have fled villages in the Kherson region have described Russian forces moving in reinforcements, and officials have eyed those troop movements warily.

The progress Ukrainian forces had made here in recent months - recapturing a string of villages from Russia's control - has largely stalled, with soldiers exposed in the open terrain.

I couldn’t agree more.
I want Russia to win this war because that will end the “New World Order,” globalist, elitist, centralized world government that is destroying the United States.
This war is the key to defeating the Deep State coup that has taken over our government and our people.
Defeating that fascist ideology can be the key to going back to being a “government of the people, by the people, for the people.”
We can go back to being America.

We haven’t had anything resembling a government of the people/for the people or anything or anything like that for a very long time.
A lot of things would have to totally change to bring that back...

The last politician who ever looked as bad or as stupid as Slojo Biden was Nero and you wouldn’t think that picture could get worse, but it seems to me that it IS gonna get a lot worse very shortly.
What becomes of Slojo and his flunkies and Neocons and nato fops and what not when Ukraine surrenders, Putin orders nato to disband and they have no options but to obey (or starve and freeze) and Serbian forces retake Kosovo??

It’s a start. A big one. Like you, I understand. Russia winning this war means defeating America’s major enemy.
If we are going to be a free nation, the first step is destroying Biden’s “new world order”.
