Just like the stupidity of the British political class today, the story of Krynky is being well told here of the stupidity of the British military. As at Gallipoli & the Somme. Incompetent British led the Ukrainians to believe that their superior British officers could plan & lead them too a victory over the sub human Russian hordes, just like the charge of the light brigade led by Lord Cardigan in 1854, the British led the Ukrainians into the slaughter against the Russia guns at Krynky.
Besides Gallipoli and the Salonika Front in WWI, you can add the Italian Campaign, the Anzio fiasco, and the utterly disastrous (and largely forgotten) Dodecanese Campaign in WWII.
All were pushed by one Winston Churchill, who had an obsession with what he imagined as the "soft underbelly of Europe".
I strongly suspect that this was political rather than military incompetence, though our current woke military leadership, undoubtedly just goes along with the most idiotic decisions anyway.
The pathetic military leadership doesn't have the guts to stand up to these ghoul-like politicians. They are therefore a disgrace to their uniform.
Sadly, I do not think they are unusual in this respect. British military leadership has always been grotesquely prepared to sacrifice their own men. And it is the job of 'historians' such as Antony Beevor to write all the lies and project this cynical attitude on to Britain's adversaries or erstwhile allies. Anything to deflect attention from the truth.
Nobody in Washington, nobody in London, nobody in Kiev cares how many Ukrainians die. If a thousand conscripts must perish and all they have to show for this is that a Russian person somewhere is mildly inconvenienced, well, that's a win in their book.
It's possible that they were actually excited when a Ukraine working age male dies. In their minds they expected an empty Ukraine, and possibly Russia to fall into their laps. They have the ability to create waves of migrant labor.
Reading this just made me incredibly sad. For all of the west's talk about democracy and freedom, there is no spoken regret for the million young men killed in pursuit of the attempted rape of Russia.
Much attention has rightly been given to the role of Washington DC in the Ukraine ‘debacle’ (I'm not sure if this is a correct word for the epic disaster we are witnessing), but the role of Westminster in what has happened has been largely overlooked until now.
It has been the most shameful episode in Britain's history. If anyone can think of anything more shameful, please let me know.
For example, the vast majority of Ukrainian troops who have died have been trained in the UK - it's obvious that their training has been appallingly bad, totally unsuited to the lethality that we've seen on the ground in Ukraine. Utter incompetence.
London’s key role in the disastrous planning & execution of specific Ukrainian military operations is now clear. It shows a UK military that is detached from reality and totally incompetent.
London (Boris Johnson) undermined a peace deal between Moscow and Kiev, despite evidence now confirming that the collective West knew at the time that Ukraine could not win . This has led to 1 million ++ Ukrainian KIA - pure evil.
London played a central role in the sanctioning of Russia, which has been an historic disaster.
London has played a key role in the planning and execution of ‘Ukrainian’ missile attacks inside Russia, against civilian/non-military targets, too.
London appears to be implicated in the Washington DC destruction of Nordstream 2 (as Truss’s infamous and very, very stupid text revealed), a terrorist attack on its own allies, leading to history's greatest emission of CO2, an environmental disaster, but also a crime against humanity.
London blocked a Russian initiative at the UN to get to the bottom of the horrific Bucha massacre, which all credible evidence indicates was in fact a ‘western’ (read Washington/London) operation, a war crime, and a crime against humanity.
There's credible evidence that Zelensky himself is in fact a UK puppet, not the US stooge that he's portrayed as.
UK military and political elites have since the start of the conflict behaved in a reckless, deluded and quite frankly quite insane manner, denigrating Russia & Russians at every opportunity, threatening and coercing Russia, as well as masterminding terrorism within Russia itself.
The way that the entire Westminster elite system (military, political & media) have whored themselves out to Washington DC’s orders has been an utter humiliation, a shameful betrayal of everything that London has historically claimed to have stood for. It's been a pathetic, sad and embarrassing spectacle.
The list could go on and on.
God only knows what we don't know, about other things that London has done.
But what we do know is already enough. It is disgusting, quite frankly. All honour & integrity - values that most UK citizens still hold dear (I have specifically confined my comments to UK elites here) - have been chucked out the window, by Westminster.
The irony is that the inevitable retaliation may not just come from Moscow. It's probably going to come from Europe itself, once the truth is revealed.
And of course from Washington DC, who own the UK 100% and have no respect for it, either.
And let's not forget from Ukrainians themselves, once the truth is revealed about London’s key role in this disaster.
My hope is that what's coming the UK’s way will lead to a purging of the elite system in London and a restoration of sovereignty in that country, where the good common sense of British people is manifested.
But if there isn't a purge and root & branch reform - if these corrupt, very stupid, incompetent, amoral and evil elites in London hang onto power - things are only going to get worse and worse in the UK. That is guaranteed.
Please forgive my rant & again, thank you for your fine piece.
The UK has a vested interest in keeping Washington mired in a million different conflicts and crises, in order that the UK can demonstrate who is the loyallest little bitch, standing all stirring and brave alongside their American Master.
Those of you who are familiar with the "Looney Tunes" canon may recall the little yappy dog who follows Spike The Bulldog around, singing Spike's praises, overstating his place in Spike's esteem, getting Spike into fights and getting slapped around by Spike whenever he feels like it.
The UK is that little yappy dog. Poland plays a similar role on a more regional scale.
I think that the City of London is the evil entity behind much of what occurs in the world.
IIRC, It is not a part of the UK, just as DC is not a part of the US.
Who controls the City of London / DC, I dare not speculate, but I'm of the mind that WW1, WW2 and many other conflicts could have been avoided if not for the greedy bastards who wanted to expand the "empire" and their own wealth.
"It has been the most shameful episode in Britain's history. If anyone can think of anything more shameful, please let me know."
You might want to look up Muslim rape gangs. This Ukraine business is like a boy scout jamboree compared to the British ruling class complicity in the rape, torture and murder of hundreds of thousands of young, white British girls by Muslim savages.
"In December 2023, the Kyiv Independent reported from Dnipro River's west bank, speaking to soldiers taking part in the cross-river raids. Many service members said the fighting felt 'hopeless.' Others felt that it was a form of political theater to distract Western allies from the largely failed counteroffensive." That was only 2 months into the incursion. No matter their disillusion, they, or rather their successors, were sent to die for another 6 months. I'm not including the Kyiv Post link because it then resorts to the propaganda that Russia sent "human waves". If anything, the British plot was a Ukrainian wave.
Not necessarily stupidity. The Zionist Empire's Deep State controls both U.S. and U.K. foreign policy, and the poor Ukrainian goyim sent to their death don't matter to it any more than the Palestinian "sub-humans." A victory over Putin's anti-globalist Slavs would have been the Empire's preference of course, but, failing that, lots of dead goyim on both sides is still a win for it.
It almost sounds like the British couldn't convince Australians to do another Gallipoli, so they persuaded Ukrainians to do it instead, with similar results. Brilliantly scintillating, old chap.
Putin asked his generals why they did not stop the landings. He was told as long as the Ukrainians kept coming the Russians could keep killing them. Attrition! Well done, NATO commanders.
The current day, British officer class. A bunch of entitled Ruperts with no peer military experience whatsoever. Brought up on fictional British glorified battles & watching the film Zulu every Christmas. Have dreamt at playing soldiers since childhood. They can't wait to be involved in these games of life & death. Brought up on falsehoods of how the Russian military will simply run away. Confronted by anything they could imagine. Can we look at episodes in this conflict, where exactly the same attitude has caused the biggest & worst losses for the Ukrainians. There are 3 instances, in all 3 of Ukraines biggest disasters. We can see exactly the same plan, that has resulted in exactly the same disastrous outcome. The failed much vaunted Summer 23 offensive. Boris couldn't hold his excitement. Just send them in, punch through the Russians will run once they see our equipment. Ended up a complete slaughter. Then this desperate I'll thought out Krinki disaster. Get a bridge head & the Russians will run away. Complete disaster. The Kursk safari, to this day Boris is spouting out about Ukraines magnificent gains in Kursk. While President Putin states the Ukrainians have lost more men in Kursk the Summer 23 offensive. All 3 tasks planned to punch through the Russian forces to reach a target that would embarrass the Russians. All 3 fantasies, all 3 being total slaughters. All 3 British finger prints all over them. No one accountable, no one brave enough to admit their role at playing real soldiers. Boris in the background with his Churchill fantasies. Churchill the arrogant idiot responsible for so many needless deaths, through his fantasies. Destroyed the lady remnants of Britain being anything significant in the world. Reckless spending, reckless debts. Carried on WW2 the fight against the Nazis. For the Nazi attack on Poland. The giving Poland to the USSR at the end of the War. Is the absolute hero of the "Rupert's". He is their mythical all time number 1 British God. Obsessed with the old Empire & it's fruits. You see these officer class types. All hail from backgrounds that benefitted massively from the Empire. It's their whole upbringing, the glorious history of plunder, state drug dealing & terrorism , racism, arrogance beyond belief. Many from families with wealth beyond belief & double barrel Surnames unheard of anywhere else in the whole of Britain. Except in the aristocratic circles. With their 1st names unheard of also in the rest of Britain. This is why they're known as "Rupert's" amongst the squaddies. Names like Boris, Kier, Rupert, Winston. Who labels their kids with these names? Not the real British people living in the real world.
Fabulous detail of reporting. Pathetic shit-show of planned murder. A fine pullng aside of the generational betrayal of young men in stupid wars of "conquest" by even stupider oligarchs. No forgetting, no learning. Rinse & repeat insanity, for profit of rich thugs.
Have the Brits completely forgotten their own military disasters - charge if the Light Brigade, Gallipoli, the Battle of the Somme, embarrassing retreat from Dunkirk, their performance in recent decades in Afghanistan and Iraq are not glorious. So, you have military incompetence teaching inexperienced boys. I wonder if these characters ever read Wilfred Owen’s poem DULCE ET DECORUM EST … and especially the ending. Owen himself became casualty of such insanity.
I did marvel at the stupidity of the Krynky episode as it unfolded.Even from 1000miles away it looked futile and wrongheaded. The hallmarks of a British military debacle… suspicions confirmed
That last picture is nuts. I remember hearing something about this failed operation earlier on but didn't realize the full scale of ineptitude involved.

Unforgivable, what a travesty.
Sociopaths could not care less. Reward and punishment are the only language that they understand, although they understand it quite well.
Fantastic piece.

The Brits did the same to the Aussies and New Zealanders at Gallipoli a century ago. They are a merciless, mendacious, murderous bunch of c#nts.

The level of delusion and incompetence in the Western world's ruling class is terrifying especially knowing they have nuclear weapons😬

It was bullshit from the start and I fully believed that we were sending them to their deaths for some silly political game.
