I Kid You Not: Ukraine Has Invaded Russia, and I Am Here For It!

Its almost too unbelievable ... let the deliciousness of it sink in.

While Vice President Kamala Harris and her new nominee for VP, Minnesota Governor Tim Waltz, were born storming the United States, a singularly significant event occurred in the Ukrainian war. All along the winter of 2023, in the spring of 2024, pundits and analysts assumed that Ukraine did not have enough combat power to carry out a summer counteroffensive. The Russians launched a spoiling attack and attempted to take the second-largest city in Ukraine, Kharkiv. As many of you know, when I was fighting as a member of the Ukrainian army in the International Legion, I was stationed in Kharkiv for six months. I took part in the liberation of the province from Russian control.  The Russians lost as many as 20,000 men killed and wounded trying to execute that fantasy. At this point, most analysts thought the war would be a stalemate until next spring. The 1100 km battlefront was stabilized, and both sides had substantial defensive positions.

Ukraine has been fighting a war that can best be described as asymmetric. That is where they use the strengths of their opponent to gain advantage. Russia’s large size means that it’s slow and lumbering. Ukraine being small and having more to lose has been adaptive, and Wiley. Many military strategists believe this war had to remain a world war, like a battle where they fought in the trenches. Having fought in this war, I didn’t think this for one minute. I spent very little time on our trench line, and in fact, we were preparing to blitz the Russians in a classic World War II-style maneuver warfare.

After the Ukrainian Army seized the city of Vovchansk on the Russian border, I proposed that the Ukrainian Army cross the border in strength, cut off the city of Belgorod, the main support center for the war, and destroy the Russian army's rear. This would have caused the entire line of Russia’s defense in Ukraine to collapse. I was roundly attacked for being a fake strategist and a fool. Perhaps someone was listening.

This summer, while everyone was pondering the slow progress in the Ukrainian war, President Zelensky, his Director of military intelligence Kyril Budanov, and the commander of the Ukrainian Army, General Syrskyi, were planning a little surprise of their own that is almost identical to my 2022 proposal.

They decided to invade Russia.
