Objective assessment of the leaked DoD documents on Ukraine. “Russo-Ukrainian War: Leak Biopsy” via Big Serge Thought.
Key takeaways:
- Documents appear to be real, as they are internally consistent
- Documents were on Minecraft Discord for at least a month before being “discovered”
- Ukraine is a black box for funding. Though more closely resembling a black hole
- US intel is embarrassingly bad, relying on questionable open source intel. With unlimited resources, how could their intel suck so badly?
- Only source of US intel on Ukraine comes from Ukraine. Who are a bunch of liars. Gee, I wonder how that works out.
- Ukraine is nearly out of warm bodies, missiles and bullets. Early May will be a defining moment
- US/NATO plan to draw down Russia in a proxy war has had the opposite effect. US/NATO is being drawn down. US/NATO military strength and sophistication appears to be a Potemkin Village. Who’d a thunk it. Go woke, go broke.
- Ukraine has no plan. US/NATO has no plan. Frankly, to a passive observer, like myself, this is pretty shocking.
- 12 battalions were planned to be ready for Ukrainian offensive by end of March (obviously missed that deadline). 9 put together by US/NATO, three by Ukraine. Only one of the brigades was more than halfway trained, rated at 60% complete. But of the nine, these will be severely undermanned and armed. More Potemkin village. Ukraine battalions? Noone knows. Net? There is no chance for a viable counter-offensive, despite the drumbeats.
- We also now know US has boots on the ground in Ukraine. This is against US law, without congressional approval
Net is, Ukraine is done for. Voluntary suicide. If they don’t surrender, the remaining Ukrainian men will be killed or maimed. What a sad, entirely avoidable loss of life. An entire generation of Ukrainian men wiped out.
Truly, Ukraine leadership, the US/NATO and everyone else that insist Ukraine fight to the last Ukrainian is guilty of war crimes. Boris Johnson went there specifically to tell the actor/comedienne to NOT negotiate an end to the hostilities, which the Turks had on the table. US/NATO REFUSES to negotiate an end to hostilities (even though they say it is Ukraine’s decision). And the ICC charges Putin with war crimes for removing children from the war zone??
What a clown show.
ADDENDUM
Gonzalo Lira hosts round-table with Ray McGovern and Larry Johnson. This is such a great discussion. Very thoughtful perspective. Far reaching. WAY TOO MUCH TRUTH. Well-worth your time. At 2 hours it is quite long. But, definitely will open your mind.
Speculate the documents were released by a faction inside Pentagon and/or intelligence community to fully reveal Ukraine as a fools errand. Worse, the path US/NATO warmongers is on will lead to broad, deadly global conflict. So, perhaps there is hope.
At 36:00, interesting discussion about the ongoing loss of US ability to influence global events, in particular the Middle East. Lira suggests peace breaking out in the middle east is counter to US desire to foment conflict, and keep divisions across countries. US does not want a united Middle East, or anywhere else. Chaos is US hegemony best friend.
41:00 McGovern on multipolar world. Prefers bipolar. But, NATO is 100% white. The rest of 80% of world is multicultural. Lilly-white west against the rest of the world. Racism much? Amazing, important insight. BRICs (Brazil, Russia, India, China, et al) already have greater nominal GDP than G7.
“The West is an Anglo-Saxon Bubble” — George Galloway
Ukraine war, ie Russia vs US/NATO has demonstrated to the world that the west is a paper tiger. US sanctions, direct conflict ineffective vs Russia. Rest of the world observing. Collectively say, US, go away. We don’t need your bullying. Slowly dawning on US that its role as global hegemon is rapidly slipping away.
1:27:00 Ray McGovern likens US to Black Knight in Monty Python’s “Holy Grail”. That’s what is happening to the US right now. Arm cut off. Leg cut off. Other arm cut off. etc. Even as it continues belligerence. As US swivels to confront China, the alliance between China and Russia gives China access to Russia’s hypersonic missiles. Game over for carrier battle groups. China and Russia have robust air defense systems capable of shooting down (nuclear) intercontinental ballistic missiles. The US does not. Hmm. How will this end?
1:30:00 Unquestionable defeat of NATO in Ukraine. Macron met with Xi in China. Chinese sent EU President Ursula von der Leyen home on commercial class. And she had to endure going through the peasant security line. i.e. “You are irrelevant. You are not worth bothering with. We don’t care if we piss you off. You can’t do anything to us. Thank you. Have a nice day.” Haha. Goodbye, b*tch. EU, you are irrelevant. F*ck off. Hahaha.
1:35:00 US to Zelensky — “You have to march forward to your doom. You cannot negotiate.” Buh bye, Ukraine troops. War crime … by Ukraine leadership and US/NATO
1:43:00 The change in Russia and China’s thinking over the last year. US cannot be THIS stupid. Chinese/Russian realization: these people (the West) really want to kill us. They want to eradicate people, culture. They want regime change that benefits them. Completely transformed how China and Russia will deal with the West and the ROW. Profound.
1:46:00 No agreement with the West will be honored (by the West). re: Angela Merkle. Minsk was an agreement “to buy time.” No intention to honor the agreement. ergo Only acceptable outcome for Russians is total occupation. Can’t argue with that.

My opinion: Ukraine is clearly going to fall to the Russians. 100% probability. My projection: Zelensky is a dead man. Zero possibility he will be able to hide anywhere. Good riddance.

F*ck. What a sh*t show. Preparing to die much?
BUSTED!
Scapegoat anyone? Loves God. Shoots Guns. Right-wing politics. Umm. Let’s see. Probably white nationalist. Loves Trump. Probably wearing MAGA hat when busted.
US just busted a 21-year old National Guardsman for leaking these documents. Things are never what they seem. Judge Napolitano interviews Larry Johnson. This is an Intelligence Operation leak. One of documents is CIA internal. National Guardsman DO NOT HAVE ACCESS, regardless of security clearance. IMPOSSIBLE. Speculate the Biden administration is attempting to cushion the hard-landing of Ukraine defeat.
Judge Napolitano interviews Larry Schaeffer. No way this guy had access to documents.
Glenn Greenwald: nothing in the documents is damaging to the US. Leak likely serves the agenda of the intel community. This is just another PSYOP.
John Helmer: “What the Pentagon Papers mean is that that the US is heading for military rule … the Pentagon Papers signal the start of their fight to the end of the Caligulists at State like Antony Blinken and Victoria Nuland, and the so-called neocon (horse for president) faction in the Democratic Party.” i.e. the leaked papers is an effort by the military to discredit the political warmongers, and enable the military to back out of disastrous confrontations with the Russians (in Ukraine) and, soon the Chinese (in Taiwan).
