Time for the West to leave Ukraine alone and make peace with Russia, without the West interfering and NATO, I think it's time for NATO to pack up as it just causes more wars and more misery

Message to Ukraine: If your "allies" don't dare to fight, but they ask you to fight. Something is wrong. They are not your allies. You should not fight their proxy war. It's not worth dying for US/NATO/globalist interests!

People who think that Ukraine is winning are living in denial. They seek comfort in subjective reality and ignore all the facts.

Australian guy yesterday said Ukraine was stronger than ever. 🤡 With such equipment loss, patriots, tanks, it sounded completely ridiculous

Completely agree, Brian. No amount of money can help deep stupidity. In fact more money will get you in deeper into it.

Fighting forces depleted. That’s why they’re talking about sending troops. Money is not for Ukraine it’s for BAE systems, Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, Bechtel, Northrop……

And we have people who believe NATO is a defensive alliance & Ukraine is winning. 😬🙄

I bet many of the 500,000 soldiers they say they want to muster will exist on payrolls only, with their salaries channeling into corrupt officials' accounts. I bet the same is true in the other two or three armies Ukraine has had to muster since 2022. Those are probably just two reasons our own government refuses to audit these expenditures.

main thing is whole US industrial base is privatized and PROFIT orientied, while russia is nationalized and PURPOSE orientied

Will they wait for the last hundred thousands, the last ten thousands, the last thousand, the last hundred, the last tens or the last Ukrainian to raise the white flag?

In 1991 ukraine population was 52 million, in 2024 it is dropped to 10 million. Amazing case of self-genocide. Ukraine would never ever recover from that demographic catastrophe.

Zelensky's figure of only 31,000 dead Ukrainian Soldiers, is the number of families that have been compensated for the loss of a loved one in the Ukrainian armed forces. This figure is low because Corrupt Commanding Officers get to keep the pay of the unreported KIA under their command. This is what I have read.

Money can't hold a gun, money can't drive a tank.

Listen to Pope Francis. The meat grinders had done the job. Enough already.

Back in the early '90s when the idea of expanding NATO was first floated the main argument of the expansionists was that it would bring stability to Europe. They must of been having a laugh.

Brian makes the most common sense arguments I've seen on KZfaq. That's why you don't get to see NAFO bots skulking around often.

Frau van der Crazy let slip in November 2022 that Kyiv had already by then suffered losses of 100,000...

Zelensky says Ukraine has only lost 31,000 soldiers, if they are short of manpower, whatever happened to the wave after wave of conscription.

Ukraine seems to like calling Russians Orcs, well Russia can call them the SS since they love that ideology so much.

31k dead in Ukraine are those who were recognized as dead. Others were simply went missing. Right now they cannot find where 700k soldiers are.

This is amazing to me that the western media is now publishing exactly what you were saying 1.5 years ago! Quite incredible!

Another excellent, professional report from The New Atlas. Brian Berletic is all business, from his meticulous research and analysis to his immaculate grooming and presentation.

I spent 21 years in the US military. When you mention some of the things Brian is talking about to the masses, it goes over their heads. Boot camp is just the beginning of a soldier/Marines training. There's a lot more that goes into having an effective fighting force than just having ground pounders, although the infantry is a VERY important component.

I love it when the badguys lose.

Thanks Brian! For those of us who had parents or grandparents in the ground forces in WWII, it's sometimes surprising how, even at the peak of hostilities in all theaters, they spent an entire year in training before being deployed to combat, then often were re-assigned or rapidly promoted, or even pulled back to train again in a different program. Then the millions and millions of them were de-mobbed after VJ Day, with the potential for mas social disruption. The US has tried to solve the problems of militarization since then, but it's been an overall failure. The truth is that the US has always been protected in its isolation, the population has always been overwhelmingly anti-war, and most of our overseas actions have been aggressions against defenseless countries for the purpose of exploitation. Even in WWII, we lost fewer soldiers worldwide than Russian civilians killed in the siege of Leningrad alone. (New Zealanders also suffered a lot of casualities -- per capita.) War is an incalculably bad thing for everyone involved. It literally must be limited to self-defense only, as in the UN Charter. Americans learned the hard way from their experience of the Civil War, but so many generations later can be convinced, by fear-mongering and false patriotism, that war is still as necessary as it was in WWII. No wonder our mass media are so tightly controlled. Thank you for bringing the basic realities of war to the general public!

The term "manpower" is misleading. An army needs soldiers - men that have been physically, mentally and operationally trained. This takes time and no amount of money can buy Ukraine time.

A lot of young ukrainian men are getting a free ride and are enjoying life here in Germany. And our regime would never allow Ukraine to recruit them, but rather send our military there.

Bah, humbug! The United States can print money. Surely the FED can print more Ukrainians for the mincer?

The free people of Ukraine should not allow their government to enslave them in a American proxy war.

"Abbreviated Training" = Abbreviated Lives. So, so sad, the unnecessary loss of human life on either side. And I'm bitterly ashamed of the meddling of my country in this futile war.

Ukraine doesn't need experienced soldiers. It doesn't make much of a difference when FAB strikes the target. All they need to learn is how to call Volga 149.200

As soon as it started Ukraine was done.

They favor ending generations of young people over admitting a failure. The authority cannot get any more dangerous than this.

The French magazine Marianne got access to "several confidential defense reports" from the French army on the situation in Ukraine. "A Ukrainian military victory now seems impossible." The reports highlight "the inadequacy of the training of Ukrainian soldiers and officers": due to a lack of officers and a significant number of veterans, these "Year II soldiers" from Ukraine - often trained for "no more than three weeks" - were launched into an assault on a Russian fortification line that proved impregnable. Somehow people who had never heard of the Battle of Kursk convinced themselves that Russian soldiers in defensive positions would run away as soon as they would hear a tank rumbling towards them. They of course did not do so. These Russian troops are well managed and cared for: The reports also highlight that contrary to Ukraine "the Russians have managed their reserve troops well, to ensure operational endurance." According to this document, Moscow reinforces its units before they are completely worn out, mixes recruits with experienced troops, ensures regular rest periods in the rear... and "always had a coherent reserve force to manage unforeseen events." This is far from the widespread idea in the West of a Russian army sending its troops to the slaughter without counting... The Ukrainians on the other side are done with: "To date, the Ukrainian general staff does not have a critical mass of land forces capable of inter-arms maneuver at the corps level capable of challenging their Russian counterparts to break through its defensive line," concludes this confidential defense report, according to which "the gravest error of analysis and judgment would be to continue to seek exclusively military solutions to stop the hostilities". A French officer summarizes: "It is clear, given the forces present, that Ukraine cannot win this war militarily." The fall of Avdeevka has shown that the Ukrainian military, even on the defensive, will inevitably lose the fight: "The Ukrainian armed forces have tactically shown that they do not possess the human and material capabilities [...] to hold a sector of the front that is subjected to the assailant's effort," continues the document. "The Ukrainian failure in Avdeevka shows that, despite the emergency deployment of an 'elite' brigade - the 3rd Azov Air Assault Brigade -, Kiev is not capable of locally restoring a sector of the front that collapses," alerts this last report. In consequence the Russian forces will simply move on: What the Russians will do with this tactical success remains to be seen. Will they continue in the current mode of "nibbling and slowly shaking" the entire front line, or will they seek to "break through in depth"? "The terrain behind Avdeevka allows it," signals this recent document, also warning that Western sources tend to "underestimate" the Russians, themselves adept at the practice of "Maskirovka," "appearing weak when strong." According to this analysis, after two years of war, Russian forces have thus shown their ability to "develop operational endurance" that allows them to wage "a slow and long-intensity war based on the continuous attrition of the Ukrainian army." There is nothing really new in the above for people who have followed the facts on the ground.

Maybe they should send the soldiers that are rounding up civilians to send to the front lines. They're big and bad attacking people that don't want to fight, so I'm certain they could handle the big bad Russians.

Many have heard tale of the raucous Avdeevka Pipe Heist, where Russian stormtroops poured through many ungodly kilometers of sewer drain to heroically burst out and capture the Tsar’s Hunt area. For those who haven’t seen it yet, here is an extended report on the unprecedented feat: But for those who imagine some Hollywood-style escapade, I urge you to read the grisly details of the unromanticized version, and learn what the heroes truly sacrificed for this heroic feat: _Since the president mentioned the pipe, then we can..._ _The pipe is one of the key successful elements of the capture of Avdiivka. Its diameter is 1.4 m. Its length is 3.7 km. Imagine that in a half-bent state in armor with a load you need to go this way and be ready to perform further tasks..._ _Along the way, in some places there is waist-deep water, and in some places there is not enough oxygen. Equipment is scattered all over. Helmets, body armor... People simply shed excess weight to get there._ _Along the way, you may encounter naked soldiers who have gone crazy... Wounded, dead, and it is now almost impossible to get them out, since the entire route in full equipment takes 12 hours..._ _The audibility is such that you can be heard perfectly at 300 meters if you speak in a normal voice. And when you arrive into the tube, you simply lose consciousness and come to your senses after 3 hours... Communication with the outside world by telephone on a wire (tapik) which stands at 1.5, 2.6, 3.7 km. The wire periodically breaks and here the signalmen act as a separate heroic core, wandering back and forth in search of a break._ _Now you've reached the point. You need to warm up somehow, sleep, eat something, go to the toilet... You also need to dig a hole outwards. Only God knows where you will get out. And if the enemy notices the hole, it will be difficult to get out of the situation..._ _Next is the accumulation and forays into the assault. The holes are spotted sooner or later, copters fly there, gas is released, artillery works. We rotated groups every 2-3 days. Everyone who returned had pneumonia, and the crowd was slowly ending..._ _This is the feat that is hidden behind the “pipe” operation and ‘funny’ pictures of Russian ninja turtles in the Avdeevka storm drain._ simplicius76.substack.com/p/avdeevka-denouement-russian-momentum

Good morning Brian 🙋🏽, and thank you for your detailed military 🎖️ reports ✨👍🏽!

NATO losing, badly!!

Brian your channel is now up to 255k subscribers and as I watch this the number of views is rolling over like the odometer of a Delorean with a flux capacitor drive. Well done. This is the new media.

Thanks for the truth BB❤

Saying zelensky can defeat Russia is like saying biden can run up the stairs without stumbling.

Ukraine Needs To Negotiate for Peace!!!

Nothing but the pure fact

The "Military Summery Channel" on KZfaq does a very good job of explaining what is happening on the battlefield in Ukraine, Dima and his team at MSC put up 2 videos per day.

They could always ask all the Americans who have ever added the Ukrainian flag emoji to their Facebook, Twitter, or TikTok profiles. I am sure they would be more than happy to help make up the numbers.

Does this mean that Bobo, Came run, Richi, Blinking, Micron, Dodo, Shwolftz, etc. all support the Az Off regime?

😮 Don't worry, Nata said they're gonna identify as a winning military.😮😮

It is heartbreaking to see so many fresh 'green - cherries' as recruits sent to the front line by upper command who refuse to see the light.

Surely training is also hindered by the language barrier! Why is no one in the west talking about peace? All these tragic deaths are someone's son, brother, father or even grandfather!😢

If the figure of 30 thousand dead is correct then why is there a chronic man shortage. The Russian estimate seems to fit better.

Ukraine is like that one kid in school that got peer pressured into doing something stupid 🙄

Peace talk now, Zelensky.

On Aug 31 2023 Ukraine RADA (parliament) allocated expensive farming lands for about new 1.6 million graves and they are all already full. Now one can estimate real AFU losses more precisely.

Brian Berletic you always give such a brilliant analysis and the background to the whole situation. The shocking thing is no Western Leaders or United States care nothing for diplomacy no peace talks. This what any sane person what do let us pray for rational thinking❤❤❤❤

Thanks Brian. As always, excellent and interesting analytics...👍👍

Uncle Scam is willing to fight to the last poor person.

We are almost at the "Dirty Harry" moment here. Where Putin tells NATO " You've got to ask yourself one question ,'Do I feel lucky? Well do you punk? '. And I think we know how that ends for NATO, don't we.

I've read an article recently which claims that Russia is ramping up its artillery equipment and munitions production, outpacing the west by 3 times. If it's true, then it would only get worse for Ukraine.

Outstanding!

Excellent Dissertation.

Down With U S imperialism!

Thank you, as always for this well informed presentation, helps us create alternative ideas to meet the demands of Western madness, The thinking that another world war will give them leverage to restore there ill-gotten power after 1945, is not madness but stupidity. Appreciate the commitment of all you guys and this is not a futile effort but a noble one, remain blessed

All it will do is charge more land for grave burials of banderites and RVC members who thought charging to a border oblast was a great idea

Thank you for your ongoing fact based information….invaluable during these chaotic geopolitical times…🙏💙

Thanks Brian

thank you everyone

I'm glad that there are very smart and sensible people on this site! Everything this guy said is true.

Assuming aid is released right now, it's important to consider that weapon factories will receive the money at a later stage, plan for production expansion, procure new production machines, prepare tooling, start hiring more skilled manpower, set up raw material supply chains, expand last-mile delivery networks, and start production of munitions and equipment. However, this process takes months if not years, and by that time, the war may already be over. Soldiers are human beings, they have a mind of their own. If they know they have to fight an adversary that has already ramped up production a while back, and now has a formidable supply chain at their disposal. Those soldiers do not want to die for nothing, and thus the nation as a whole will find it hard to raise new brigades.

Thank you

Thank you Brian!

70,000 Ukrainian casualties? Moon of Alabama et al had over 300,000?

That's rubbish. Here in ever Declining Britain if ones parents have the funds to send one to Eton, one can attend Sandhurst for three or four months and be a General. What what.

Brian, this is nice report. The only thing you have wrong is that the Ukraine doesn't want their army to be trained, competent soldiers...Ukraine wants them to be cannon fodder.

Good job ,should be mandatory reading for all politicians in charge.

thanks for this attention to the defense industrial - and the point of tension that it is producing at the moment.

In a Netflix and chill world 2024 you expect ppl to chose to crawl and die in snow and mud for Uncle Pam ? People intelligent enough to make a difference in this war are too intelligent to join. They understand the meaning of the word "Proxy" !

Great work as always 🎉

Thank you Brian .

Appreciate your hard work XOXO

Always a great watch Mr Berletic.

Thank you Brian, excellent..😊

Great analysis, keep up your good work.

Thanks for your excellent journalism

Another excellent report - thanks Brian !

Very neat way to deliver information, thanks for your work again and again👍

Thanks

Thank you very much for your updates🙏👍🙏

thanks for your analysis 😊

Ukraine has a population in the tens of millions. Why don't those millions of men abroad and at home flock to sign up ?

Thanks Brian. Great video.

Thank you Brian

Thanks BRIAN GREAT ANALYSIS!!!

Respect !

Tnx Brian

You can print money - lots of money - but you can't print men!!

Thank you very much for insightful and well-informed perspectives, very much appreciated.

numero uno1......grande jokator und spakator......

Interesting. Thank you.

>We won't be sending tanks. _sends tanks_ >We won't be senting fighter planes. _sends fighter planes_ >We won't be putting boots on the ground ...

Good job, Brian!
