• an apocalyptic assault

    Putin may be about to launch an apocalyptic assault

    With Western attention turning towards elections in Britain and
    America, the war in Ukraine is drifting away from the front pages.
    While many in the West have written the conflict off as a stalemate,
    the Kremlin has not. There are now rumblings in Moscow that a decisive offensive to turn the tides of the war squarely in Russia's favour may
    soon be underway.

    Russia is scouring the globe for drones and ammunition from every
    dictator and rogue state, while Kyiv scratches around and begs for
    artillery shells and air defence missiles from its distracted
    "allies".

    As German Chancellor Shulz urges the European Union to do more - while
    notably failing to deliver the hundreds of Leopard 2 tanks Ukraine so desperately needs - Russia is moving to a total war footing, with its government spending and economy increasingly dictated by the needs of
    the war machine. The contrast between East and West could not be
    clearer; Russia is focused, and we are not.

    Or Not.

    With Western attention turning towards elections in Britain and
    America, the war in Ukraine is drifting away from the front pages.

    And on behalf of media outlets desperate for your clicks, we'll do
    anything to keep it there. Therefore, this shitpile of an article.
