Terrible Beauty of Ukraine's Bakhmut Victory.
The odious Strelkov/Girkin (who was found guilty by the court in the Hague of complicity in the downing of Malaysian Airlines flight MH17 over Donetsk) confirms what many of us understood since 29 March 2022:
Victory in "Phase 2" for Russia depended WHOLLY on:
(1) conquering all of Luhansk and Donetsk.
(2) Then, Ukraine's "allies" coercing Ukraine to negotiate "peace".
Current Situation: At current conquest rate, Russia would occupy all of Luhansk and Donetsk in 2132.
Meanwhile, Ukraine has convinced Scholz, Macron and President Biden it can and will expel Muscovy from 100% of its land.
Now, having been so convinced, Ukraine's allies will give it the matériels it needs to Get This Thing Done Fast.
As President Biden put it in response to Ruschist claim that F-16s for Ukraine are "a big risk."
"It is for them."
And that, my friends, is the Terrible Beauty of Bakhmut.
⚡️Kreminna: Ruschists killed 400 native Russian-language speaking Ukrainians in one day - intercepts published by Ukrainian intelligence.
This rings true, because of other data.
On 11 March 2022 (see 👇🏽) a Ruschist tank blasted this idyllic retirement home in Kreminna. Killed 56 pensioners immediately. This event was inexplicable, until now.
First they dehumanise using Stealth Genocide anti-Ukrainian Disinfolklore. Then they murder and kill. This is the behaviour genocide apologists condone.
By the way, I know Kreminna quite well. Went there a lot, while living in its sister city Severodonetsk.
