Ukraine Will ‘Capitulate Unconditionally’ – Scott Ritter

Well yes, there comes a point in which the money ends and all those supporters say adios.  the Ukraine has neither the manpower nor the industrial base to support a war and toys or us can only provide a show.  Winning demands a military corp able to blow open the best Russian defensive position while absorbing losses in the thousands.

Otherwise we have a repetition of the Western front or the Iran Iraq War.  Obviously, the Ukraine will be exhausted long before Russia.  What has been seen are operations just like those wars.

So far NATO and the USA shows no appetite for launching a full out war as that also would demand real manpower.  And yes ,artillary is not your freind on any front.  Its purpose is to maximize casulties and normally accounts for seventy percent.  Think about that.

Again Russian strategy has been to occupy the known Russian enclaves on the eastern part of the Ukraine after suffering ample profovication i might add.  Acting like NAZIS still does not win friends.  all they need to do is wait for war exhaustion to set in.

Ukraine Will ‘Capitulate Unconditionally’ – Scott Ritter

President Vladimir Zelensky should recall how World War II ended for Japan, the former US intelligence officer says

The conflict between Russia and Ukraine will conclude with Kiev’s unconditional surrender, according to Scott Ritter, a former US intelligence officer and UN weapons inspector.

On Wednesday, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky claimed in a post on X (formerly Twitter) that “Ukraine does not trade its territories, because we do not trade our people.”

The message was dedicated to the Third Crimea Platform Summit, where Ukraine discussed ways of “de-occupying” the peninsula, which reunited with Russia in 2014 following a referendum triggered by the US-backed Maidan coup in Kiev earlier that year.

Replying to Zelensky’s post, Ritter wrote that “it was NATO that suggested a trade. Russia isn’t trading anything.”

The former US intelligence officer was apparently referring to remarks by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg’s chief of staff, Stian Jenssen, who said in mid-August that Ukraine could “give up territory [to Russia], and get NATO membership in return.” According to Jenssen, this idea was actively being discussed within the US-led military bloc.

Jenssen later apologized for his remarks, saying they were “a mistake.”

The suggestion caused outrage in Kiev, with presidential aide Mikhail Podoliak branding it “ridiculous.” Such a move would amount to “deliberately choosing the defeat of democracy… and passing the war on to other generations,” he claimed.

The head of the Ukrainian National Security Council, Aleksey Danilov, reiterated that Kiev would never negotiate with Russian President Vladimir Putin, insisting that “Russia must be destroyed like a modern-day Carthage.”

Ritter insisted that Moscow is “dealing with reality” when it comes to the conflict with Kiev, including “where Russian boots will be when Ukraine capitulates unconditionally.”

“Think Tokyo Bay, September 2, 1945. That’s your future. Enjoy,” he wrote, addressing Zelensky.
