Russian Ops in Ukraine (July 21, 2022) - Pentagon Prefers
Fiction Over Facts
Watchman comment: Brian
presents an excellent and one of his best briefings of the war in Ukraine.
- Pentagon admits Ukrainian troops are not
stopping Russia’s advance;
- Pentagon admits HIMARS cannot “win” a war on
their own;
- US allies are repairing Ukrainian equipment
Ukraine is not capable of repairing itself;
- Media and US officials float idea of training
Ukrainian pilots to fly Western warplanes;
- US claims Russia’s advances are slow and
incremental, omitting that Donbass is the most heavily fortified region of
Ukraine and yet Russia continues to advance;
