When the going gets tough, the U.S. says adios.<\/p>\n<p>The following video cartoon is a canary in the mineshaft. While the West is scrambling to blame Ukraine for the failed counter offensive, some in the Ukraine are pushing back against that narrative by correctly noting that the pledge of Washington and NATO to give them the weapons systems needed to beat back the Russian offensive is nothing more than lip service.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GkRx14kr2Ck\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n&#8212;<\/div>\n<p>View cartoon on Rumble: <a href=\"https:\/\/rumble.com\/v3517co-ukrainian-cartoon-re-lack-of-western-support.html\">https:\/\/rumble.com\/v3517co-ukrainian-cartoon-re-lack-of-western-support.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p>With no success on the battlefield Ukraine is opting for the drone hail Mary \u2014 i.e., attacking a couple of Russian ships with maritime drones. These attacks are pin pricks with no strategic significance in terms of diminishing Russia\u2019s military power. However, these attacks are likely to inspire the Russian General Staff to look at attacks on NATO ISR operating over the Black Sea because of the role played by Western aerial surveillance in providing Ukraine with intelligence needed to attack those two Russian vessels. In addition, these attacks are likely to stiffen Russia\u2019s resolve to impose a de facto embargo on Ukrainian ports in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n<p>I wonder when the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.telegraph.co.uk\/betting\/sports-guides\/best-betting-sites-uk\/\">London bookies<\/a> will start offering betting opportunities predicting Zelensky\u2019s fall from power or the Ukrainian military\u2019s withdrawal from the battlefield? That is another marker that is a better predictor of the course of the war in Ukraine than any of the nonsense being published by British intelligence or the Institute for the Study of War.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8212;<\/p>\n<p>If you like what I am writing I would welcome financial support in defraying the costs of this blog.
