"Zelensky: ‘We are trying to find some way not to retreat’"
Quote
“If there is no U.S. support, it means that we have no air defense, no Patriot missiles, no jammers for electronic warfare, no 155-milimeter artillery rounds,” he said. “It means we will go back, retreat, step by step, in small steps.”
More of the "stabbed in the back" narrative

"Fall of Ukraine, Switzerland's ability to defend itself"
Swiss media predict defeat of Ukraine by end of 2024
Quote
Apparently, Ukraine today has an insufficient stock of 155 mm caliber artillery ammunition. The deliveries announced so far by the EU have only been meager.
In some cases, arms deliveries promised by the USA and other countries never materialized. These include the F-16 fighter jets, which Ukraine urgently needs to defend against Russian bomber aircraft and glide bombs.
Due to internal machinations, the Zelensky regime has not yet been able to decide on the necessary mobilization of new soldiers. The combat effectiveness of the Ukrainian army is considered exhausted.
Due to this situation, Ukraine is likely to have only a limited ability to fend off Russia's upcoming offensives.
Unfortunately, it must be expected that Ukraine could collapse by the end of 2024.

Ukraine needs to conscript refugees and close their borders to stop deserters from fleeing.
The only way out of this mess long term is for Joe Biden to grow a pair and deploy a peacekeeping mission at the frontlines and enforce it with a no-fly zone and actual follow up with military forces if Russia breaks such a red line.
Don’t be such a pu$$y joe, learn from Obama’s mistake in Syria and enforce the defense of liberty in Ukraine.

As Hindsight has noted the media narrative surrounding this war has been basically schizophrenic.
