Is Russia about to LOSE the war?

Some people are claiming that the Russian armed forces are currently bogged down and on the brink of defeat in Ukraine. Thus far, such claims rely in large part on select images and videos of Russian armor and military vehicles getting stuck in mud, captured, or destroyed. Snapshots don't tell the whole story however. The above screenshot from Wikipedia is illustrative of the disparity in Ukrainian and Russian claims about troop casualties and equipment losses on both sides.

Clint Ehrlich, whoโ€™s been providing frequent analyses of the war, said the following: โ€œmany analysts are predicting an imminent defeat of the Russian military. In reality, Russia is on the verge of annihilating the bulk of the Ukrainian army.โ€

So, whatโ€™s true? The war remains very much befogged amid a flurry of disinformation, and it has become exceedingly difficult to assess the actual course of the fighting. Whether or not this will change over time remains to be seen.

โ—๏ธBlinken says NATO countries have "green light" to send fighter jets to Ukraine. (CBS News)

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken confirmed on Sunday that the U.S. is working with Warsaw on plans to supply Ukraine with Russian-made fighter jets.

The consequence of this decision will likely result in the bombing of Ukraineโ€™s remaining airfields, particularly in the western part of the country.

And if these jets park, refuel and carry out their sorties from outside of Ukraine, no one should doubt that Russia will strike those locations as well, regardless of their NATO status.

An Australian student gets ejected from a live talk show for questioning the Western narrative on Ukraine.

Host of Australian Q&A show Stan Grant booted Sasha Gillies-Lekakis (University of Melbourne student) out of the studio after he politely raised an uncomfortable question about Ukraine.

Hereโ€™s what Sasha said:

As someone who comes from the Russian community here in Australia, I've been pretty outraged by the narrative created by our media depicting the Ukraine as the good guy, and Russia as the bad guy.

Believe it or not, there are a lot of Russians here and around the world that support what Putin is doing in the Ukraine, myself included.

Since 2014, the Ukrainian government, together with Nazi groups like the Azov battalion, have besieged the Russian populations in the Donbas, killing an estimated 13,000 people, according to the United Nations.

My question is: where was your outpouring of grief and concern for those thousands of mostly Russians?
