I came over here hoping that someone here had tracked down the original Telegram posts, as I really want to read the rest of the leaked info. No such luck.

And it will get much worse for Ukrainians until there is a negotiated peace settlement which Biden will not do. This administration is complicit in all those pointless deaths.

I don't believe anything this Biden government tells me. Lying is their forte.

It still amazes me ukraines borders aren’t to be crossed but ours is everyday and Americans lose lives here at home. What’s the difference of Russia encroaching Ukraine and every country in the world encroaching ours?

I think both sides are taking insane amounts of casualties. Not sure if Russia is counting Wagner as part of their dead or not but would have to think both sides have exchanged heavy blows with each other. Only Russia has more man power to expend than Ukraine. I look at the Twitter/Reddit of both Russian and Ukrainian bias, and both post videos/pics of soldiers from the other side being taken out in huge numbers. This is really WW1 shite and it’s crazy we can basically witness it. I saw an ariel drone video recently in very good quality of a russian soldier storming a Ukrainian trench and taking out a few Ukrainian soldiers. It’s wild and humbling to see. I’m sure there is a lot of disinformation from both sides on casualties and KIA, but at least from what I’ve seen, granted I’m no expert, I have to imagine the numbers are massive for both. If Ukraine is truly only doing their upcoming upcoming counter offensive with 40k soldiers, I think that is very telling that their casualty numbers are finally catching up to them.

I'm getting a German spring of 1945 vibe with adolescent boys and elderly men fighting an endless tide of Russian infantry.

Would we do joint space missions with a mortal enemy? Would we rely on that enemy to transport our astronauts and supplies?


The Cold War ended decades ago. Russia is no threat to us.
Get over it.

I remember when the poli board said Russia would take Ukraine in 2 weeks. And that Bakhmut had been taken (multiple times).. and that Ukraine would collapse in 6 weeks (that was 10 weeks ago).

So now we believe government reports? LOL


I would expect our government reports to elevate Russian casualties and minimize Ukrainian casualties. Wouldn't you?

I don't know what I think unintentionally leaked documents would look like. If it wasn't meant for public consumption, it's hard to estimate the validity. I'd still expect them to paint as rosey a picture as they possibly could.

I couldn’t figure out what the “made up” angle was supposed to be here either.

Nobody has even tried to explain it.

The Rus 16-17K KIAs match up with the Mossad estimate. The Ukr losses are a good 100K less than the Mossad estimate.

Military analysts said the documents appear to have been modified in certain parts from their original format, overstating American estimates of Ukrainian war dead and understating estimates of Russian troops killed.

The modifications could point to an effort of disinformation by Moscow, the analysts said. But the disclosures in the original documents, which appear as photographs of charts of anticipated weapons deliveries, troop and battalion strengths, and other plans, represents a significant breach of American intelligence in the effort to aid Ukraine.



"The laptop has all the hallmarks of Russian information operation".

That's exactly how I read that part of the story.

These fricking weasels use that kind of language all the time to obfuscate.
