Quite funny to see how MOA has been wrong about literally everything about this war. I remember when they predicted a swift victory with little Ukrainian resistance. That was over 4 years ago. 
Yet here we are and Ukraine still stands.

What a shame.

A fanatic hater less. A piece of shit flushed down the sewers. 
If there were any hell, may Lindsey Graham burn in.

Appears to be stopped because they need to move a wreck and possibly fix a lock.

Appears to be a lie as ships entered the canal from Taganrog last night. One empty tanker was slightly damaged by a drone but could resume travel.

Lyndsey Graham is deceased by a heart attack after visiting z apparently news headlines say.

Oh wow aquadraht mm
Coward…what an attitude to me when for years been faithfully researching and providing reports and info, and recent months posts are removed and others post the same stuff  and get through. But still I attempt to post. b did not even have the courtesy to reply to an email from me attempting to discern why. Considering that posts remain up a lot of time that distract from the subject, personal insults  and arguments and nuke Russia etc etc.
Russia truth is on substack as I have previously posted. It seems to provide good analysis and reports up to date. It seems to be as relevant as the sources that most people use. Not difficult to find , It’s the content that is important ,not the nit picking focus by people who like to do that, appreciate the discussion that is why we are here

Thanks for your reply.  I think you’ve gone into this conflict a lot deeper than the superficial  Holiday  Inn level.
 
I found the Melnichenko essay repellent.  “I hope that in time we will correct all the internal imbalances for which we too bear responsibility—through the fact that we were once glad to absent ourselves.”
 
Is that a mea culpa?  Doesn’t look like it to me.  More a clever man seeking to accommodate to the different power balance he senses emerging.   A fair weather friend, adjusting to the fact that Russia’s won this round but as far as I can see, having done nothing whatsoever to put his shoulder to the wheel when it mattered.
 
Were I one of the Russian soldiers risking life and limb in the Donbass, I’d not be that pleased if the end of it all was just that Melnichenko got to keep his yacht.

Ok, maybe I misassessed you, in which case I apologize. Yet it is hard to distinguish amid the flood of trolling and derailing. 
 
But you should also reflect what you might have contributed both to negative assessments, and postings being removed by the administrator. 
 
For example: I do not know a substack Russia Truth, maybe I just missed, but given the number of sources I follow, it is strange, and at least a link would be helpful. Granted I follow mostly Russian and to some extent Ukrainian language accounts beside the more widely known English language ones and some in other tongues, German for example, I wonder that I did not stumble over it. 
 
Ok I do not or very rarely look into anything on Youtube and other mafia resources. A reason why you suffered removals may be your verbatim reposting e.g. from a channel “@ukr_leaks_eng” without any own contribution.
 
While I know and value Vassily Prokhorov and follow his telegram channel every day, I would not just try to feed it into b’s blog. That is considered impolite to both sides, and may even trigger auto moderation.

The claim was that this came from MoU so don’t change the story. I don’t follow links to Twitter because they usually fail. Show a relevant link or didn’t happen.

Is Russia Actually Losing?
https://youtu.be/cRiOkQ1ngAM?si=ZEcgSfKUpjTva9c0
 
“Russia’s war economy is running out of road. Ukrainian drone strikes have knocked out roughly a third of Russia’s oil refining capacity, forcing an energy superpower to ration petrol at home and import gasoline from India — while Crimea sits under a state of emergency with the air-raid sirens switched off so the tourists aren’t disturbed. In this video we look at what the numbers actually say: a contracting economy despite record military spending, a National Wealth Fund down from 6.5% of GDP to 1.8%, a first-quarter budget deficit that blew through the entire year’s target in ninety days, and a banking system quietly commandeered to keep the tank factories running. We look at how China has turned the ‘no limits’ partnership into a very one-sided arrangement, why Europe’s largest rearmament since the Cold War sent defence stocks down, whether Europe actually needs expensive American fighter jets or is simply paying tribute to Washington — and what the Russian endgame realistically looks like, according to a Russian billionaire who is not a dissident. Featuring the Kiel Institute’s “Endgame” report, Tucker Carlson’s demon, and the parade Vladimir Putin had to get Zelensky’s permission to hold.”

This post did not say anything about limiting to MOA:  Posted by: Tel | Jul 12 2026 9:55 utc | 220
but I do now see that earlier comment: Posted by: angelocrator | Jul 12 2026 7:38 utc | 208
In addition MOA’s stance that the invasion would never take place, any commenter who pushed what Scott Ritter was saying back in late February / March 2022 would fall under that.

Remember August 2022 when MOA claimed that there was no way that Ukraine would even attempt to take back Kherson?

🇩🇪🇺🇦 Germany will pay for the delivery of 50,000 attack drones to Ukraine, according to Reuters.These are Shrike drones manufactured by the Ukrainian company SkyFall. They are equipped with software from the American company Auterion. The contract amount is approximately €90 million.
Got too overexcited after a long trip meeting the height of his ambitions- the possibility of destroying Russia consumed him …plus others. Z the parasite kills his hosts, especially US and EU economies plus UK.

The total travel time for Graham from Kiev to his home in Washington DC including the 6-9 hour train or motorcade trip to the Polish border, followed by the 9-10 hour direct flight would have taken 15-20 hours. Graham’s activities in Kiev concluded on Friday, 10 July. That included meeting Zelensky, visiting the Skyfall drone production facility, and conducting his final meeting with the press (pictured) during which he announced new sanctions.
He could very well have departed Kiev on Friday evening or during the night, and with the 7 hour time zone difference, very easily have arrived in Washington by mid-afternoon on Saturday, on time to meet his maker at the reported location and hour. Slavyangrad
