Krivoy Rog ...

 ... yesterday. One of the targets hit--a restaurant with 80+ NATO and VSU officers. 

But according to General Cavoli, Russia, while regenerating her military at an astonishing rate, still loses the SMO by a gigantic margin because the astonishing rate is not astonishing enough. You know, this classic example of doublethink: it is the act of holding, simultaneously, two opposite, individually exclusive ideas or opinions and believing in both simultaneously and absolutely. Doublethink requires using logic against logic or suspending disbelief in the contradiction. The three slogans of the party — "War Is Peace; Freedom Is Slavery; Ignorance Is Strength" — are obvious examples of doublethink. The act of doublethink also occurs in more subtle details throughout the Cavoli's written statement to the Senate Armed Services Committee. I deal with it in my today's video, evidently the US military made a new discovery in math. 

About This Cavoli Statement ...

 ... which everyone discusses. It is for Senate Armed Services Committee, and it is filled with 404 propaganda. 

Russian forces on the frontlines of Ukraine are now at over 600,000, the highest level over the course of the war and almost double the size of the initial invasion force. Russia is not just reconstituting service members but is also replacing combat vehicles and munitions at an unprecedented pace. Russian ground forces in Ukraine have lost an estimated 3,000 tanks, 9,000 armored vehicles, 13,000 artillery systems, and over 400 air defense systems in the past year—but is on pace to replace them all. Russia has expanded its industrial production, opened new manufacturing facilities, and converted commercial production lines for military purposes. As a result, the Russian defense industrial base is expected to roll out 1,500 tanks, 3,000 armored vehicles, and 200 Iskander ballistic and cruise missiles this year. (Comparatively, the United States only produces about 135 tanks per year and no longer produces new Bradley Fighting Vehicles.) Additionally, we anticipate Russia to produce 250,000 artillery shells per month, which puts it on track to build a stockpile three times greater than the United States and Europe combined. Not all of Russia’s military capability has been degraded by the war.

I have news for those who read this. There was never any doubt that Russia outproduces a whole NATO combined, but Russia didn't lose "400 air defense systems" or "13, 000" artillery pieces. Combat math simply doesn't support these fictitious numbers. Russia surely did lose some AD systems and a number of artillery pieces, but those numbers are nowhere near this fantasy. Well, at least he admitted the other part. Numbers of tanks and armored vehicles are also extremely exaggerated. Especially when considering COFM. 

Yeah, Right...

 ... and too late. No matter how one tries to dance around it. 

There is a serious case to be made, that "studying" tactical minutiae, especially infused with a lot of 404 propaganda is not going to change anything for Pentagon, not to speak of NATO chihuahuas, because it is impossible to recreate grand-strategic and military strategic framework of Russia in the country whose Russian "expertise" for decades is based on BS by Soviet/Russian dissidents and other shysters from Ivy League who created and then bought completely their own BS in military history. PR they can do, beyond that--these are amateurs. 

However, give Cavoli the credit where credit is due--at least we know that Cavoli IS NOT Ben Hodges. Not by a long shot--under present circumstances this is not a small accomplishment. At least Cavoli admits (partially) the inevitable. Russia is done with the West. I read today some protestations from some Germans in the comments to my latest video that comparing SPD or Grune to Nazis is wrong. No, it is not, both parties profess genocidal ideologies and it is on the SPD watch that German panzers burned again on the Russian soil. Meanwhile Moldova gave EU the middle finger and UAE's President Mohamed bin Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan is treated by Putin as a dear friend. Here is him on the way to Novo-Ogarevo for personal visit with Vladimir Putin...

Russians treasure friends...
