If you have been following the Banderastan War closely – and I most assuredly have on my Telegram channel – then you will understand very clearly that there is a vast, yawning gulf between what the Western whorenalists and presstitues and Ukrops want you to believe, and what is actually happening on the ground. There are, in fact, two wars being fought in Banderastan right now, and they are completely lopsided in all respects.

The first is the War of Perception. This is the PR war that the Ukrainian government is fighting. Its front-line divisions consist entirely of Western presstitutes and whorenalists, blue-check-mark types on Twatter, LinkedIn and Facebook virtue-signalling twerps, celebritards, and bleeding-heart liberals. Its support battalions and regiments are extremely formidable – they consist of almost every Western corporation operating in Russia, the entirety of the Western financial system, the political decision-makers in Washington, London, Paris, Berlin, Brussels, and every European capital, and the CEOs and CFOs of hundreds, if not thousands, of other companies around the world. And its psyops branches can reach virtually every inhabitant of the Western world in a matter of seconds.

The second is the War of Reality. This is the actual, physical, on-the-ground war that the professional soldiers of the Russian Armed Forces and their allies among the Chechen Rosgvardia (Russian National Guard), volunteer battalions, Wagner PMC (mercenaries), and LDNR militias, are fighting with the support of the Russian Aerospace Forces (RuAF) and Russian Navy. They fight against the regular soldiers of the Ukrainian Armed Forces (AFU), the neo-Nazis and ultranationalists of groups like Azov and Right Sector and Aidar and so on, and conscripts press-ganged into service.

Each side is winning only ONE of these wars. But, only ONE of these wars actually matters in the end.

The Ukrop War of Perception

If you pay any sort of attention to Ukrainian-supporting Twatter or their presstitute supporters, you will inevitably end up thinking that all of the following are true:

• The Ghost of Kiev is real and shot down 40 Russian aircraft before he died heroically in battle;
• The 5 or so border guards on Snake Island told the Russian Navy to “Go F**K yourselves!” before being heroically annihilated in a massive barrage of fire;
• The heroic Ukrainian resistance has stalled and bogged down the Russian invasion, with catastrophic losses in manpower, equipment, and morale;
• The Russians have lost anywhere between 10,000 and 50,000 men, depending on whom you ask, thanks to the heroes of Ukraine;
• Repeated counteroffensives by the heroic Ukrainian heroes and their heroism have forced Russian to withdraw from the entire northern front, again with hideous losses;
• More such heroic heroism has resulted in Russian defeats at Belogorovka and around Kharkov, forcing more withdrawals;
• The Russians are total incompetents who can’t even aim straight whenever they try to fire on Ukrainian positions, manned by the heroic heroes of heroism;
• Once the bulk of Western economic and military aid really starts arriving, the heroes of Ukraine will stage a glorious mass counteroffensive along all fronts and throw the hated Russian pigs all the way back to Moscow with their tails between their legs;

You will note that I pushed the whole “heroism” line pretty hard. You might think I am overdoing it. I assure you, I am not. If anything, this is a dramatic understatement relative to the ridiculously hagiographic coverage that the Western media has given the Ukrainians. Again, if you believe Ukrainian accounts, repeated dutifully and without critical reflection by their Western whorenalist enablers, you would believe that the Ukrainians have inflicted massive and devastating losses upon the Russians, Putin is sick and dying, and the Russian economy and military is in total disarray.

The Russian War of Reality

Compare that with what the FACTS are, on the ground, which you can verify for yourself simply by reading through my Telegram feed, or by watching the same videos and reading the same data that I do:

• Russia is using very limited firepower and manpower in Ukraine, and deliberately so – they really do view this as a Special Military Operation, not a true war;
• The Russian and Allied forces in Banderastan amount to a MAXIMUM of 150,000 in total, and in fact, the Russian military has no more than about 60K troops in the region, with the LDNR militias (of which many battalions are in fact elite-level mechanised shock troops at this point) making up at least 50K of those forces;
• The Allied forces have consistently been outnumbered in EVERY theatre of the war, and therefore have used manoeuvre warfare to pin down enemy forces in some areas while leaving their heavy infantry and artillery and air support to operate freely in others;
• The pinning move in the north was NEVER meant to hold territory, but was meant to keep Kiev’s garrison busy and guessing while the Allies liberated the south;
• After the collapse of resistance in Mariupol’, the Allies moved on to physically encircle the remaining Ukrainian formations in the Donbas, while simultaneously rapidly and steadily degrading their ability to move, fight, and maintain their supply lines;
• The Allies have taken thousands of captives and killed tens of thousands of Ukrainian troops – the Russian MoD estimates that the total number of Ukie dead, alone, approaches 30K, but I personally reckon it to be closer to 50K at this point;
• The total number of surrenders at Azovstal ALONE is in excess of 2,000, and may well hit 2,500 before all is done there, and the total number of Ukrop POWs in Allied captivity is in excess of 7,000 and may be as high as 10,000 already;
• The Russians now have at least 10,000 more Ukrops physically contained in three separate boiling cauldrons – Severodonetsk-Lisichansk, Krasniy Liman, and Novoivanovka – and are busily working to surround the major remaining grouping of Ukrops on DNR soil at the Slavyansk-Kramatorsk line;
• Far from having lost their combat capabilities, Russian forces are in fact rotating their battalions at their own leisure through the various fronts, and in the process are creating a battle-hardened, field-tested army with some of the most advanced technology in the world at its disposal;

And that is barely even a summary of the current advantages held by the Russians. The pace of events along the front lines is accelerating considerably, and I suspect that Ukrop resistance will last maybe another week to ten days in the Donbas region before we see some kind of truly catastrophic collapse.

The most important thing to understand is that YOU WILL NOT HEAR ONE WORD OF THIS from the Ukrainian-slaved, Jewish-controlled whorenalists and presstitutes. You will instead be told the lies from the War of Perception.

Yet the fact remains that the War of Reality is the one that matters, and eventually, wars of reality ALWAYS win out over wars of perception, because sooner or later you run out of the ability to disguise and hide all of the dead bodies.

The simplest way to illustrate the difference between the War of Perception, and the War of Reality, is to look at the pictures of the surrendering Ukrops at Azovstal.

Have you ever seen a complete ass-kicking? I mean, like, an utter and total beatdown, to the point where the guy on the receiving end has absolutely no answer whatsoever to anything that that his attacker throws at him? Have you ever looked into the eyes of someone who has been totally humiliated and completely destroyed?

That man’s eyes are empty. Dead. Hopeless. Defeated. Bitter.

THAT is the finest proof that you can imagine, in living colour, of the difference between the two kinds of war.

Why Russia Surrendered in the Infowar

There is, however, one very obvious flaw in the Russian strategy, which becomes instantly clear the moment you start applying Col. John Boyd‘s famous dictum about the Three Levels of War to the conflict. Recall, as always, that Col. Boyd stated that every war involves three levels – physical, mental, moral. Victories on the higher levels always mean more than defeats at the lower levels. This paradigm goes a very, VERY long way toward explaining why the Empire of Lies is so bloody HOPELESS at winning wars.

Whether we are talking about the Korean War, the Vietnam War, Shitholistan (aka Somalia), the Rockpile, the Sandbox, Libya, Yemen, or any of the other COUNTLESS brushfire wars in which the US military has inserted itself, that same military has consistently FAILED to win. And it has failed precisely because it lost the moral support of the public back home – even as it won, physically, on every battlefield.

This is especially true in Vietnam; every single time the Viet Cong tried to take on the US Army or Marines in open-field combat, the VC lost, horribly. Yet, the immense asymmetry between the two combatants, combined with heart-wrenching pictures of dead and wounded American boys coming home, destroyed moral support for the Vietnam War in the US. The resulting contradiction between the moral losses and physical victories resulted in a mental disconnect for American soldiers, whose morale dipped dramatically as a result.

And because of these losses, the US had to spend close to a decade rebuilding its morale, doctrine, and warfighting techniques before it felt confident enough to take on any kind of serious foreign war. Even then, when the US and its allies fought in Desert Storm, the Iraqis had no way to stop NATO from spending 6 months massing troops and logistical support for the actual campaign.

The point is that the US keeps losing wars because it fails to win the moral support of the people back home. So why, then, is Russia able to keep fighting, even though it has seemingly lost the moral war, in the West?

The answer is obvious: the Russians have WON the moral war among their own people.

Take a look at this picture. It is extremely famous in Russia. This is a picture from Krasnoyarsk, in the Siberian heartland of Russia, of the one and only Babushka Z:

Look very carefully at her shadow. You want to know what that is?

It is this:

That would be the legendary statue, Родина-Мать Зовёт, or “The Motherland Calls”, on the hill of Mamayev Kurgan outside of Volgograd. You might know the city better by the name of Stalingrad.

The Story of “Babushka Z”

This should tell you something about just how deeply the story and video of “Babushka Z” resonate with the Russian people. In case you didn’t know about it, “Babushka Z” is an old Ukrainian woman of Russian origin, living in the occupied territories of the LDNR. Ukrop soldiers came over to tell her that the Russians were coming. She mistook them for Russian soldiers, and came out of her house to thank them, carrying with her the Victory Flag that Russians hold so dear to their hearts – the same flag that their soldiers raised in Berlin in 1945. The Ukrop soldiers mocked her, took away her flag, and handed her supplies and food on the condition that she say, “Glory to Ukraine!”.

She refused, handed the supplies back, and told the Ukrops to return her flag, because it belonged to her parents. The Ukrops responded by throwing the flag to the ground and standing on it.

Russians EXPLODED with rage when they saw this. The video went completely viral within Russia itself. She became a symbol of the Special Military Operation in the hearts and minds of their people. Posters and murals and graffiti of her sprang up all over the country, as far east as Krasnoyarsk and Yekaterinburg in the Siberian hinterland.

The Ukrops, bemused by this, responded by shelling the old woman’s house, and then lying to her and telling her that the Russians did it. The Russians learned about that, too, and now their attitude toward the Ukie soldiers can charitably be described as, “if they don’t surrender, kill ’em all and let God sort ’em out”. I’m not joking about this. The Russians genuinely hate the Ukrainian armed forces, and not just the neo-fascists and neo-Nazi Azovites, for what they have done now.

Victory and Defeat at the Moral Level

This story tells us exactly why Russia is winning the War of Reality. It is winning because, in fact, the Russian leadership has WON the moral level of war.

See, the point of the moral level of war is that it affects the invader and the instigator of a war the most. If the defender can impose an unreasonably high price, in moral terms, as the much-put-upon weaker party, and can effectively show this to the people of the invader, then it can defeat its enemy on the moral level.

But that status as the weaker party matters NOT ONE WHIT when the people of the invader view the invasion as something akin to a Holy Crusade. And that, increasingly, is exactly how the Russians view this war.

The Ukrainians have won the moral level of war with the Western world – this was pretty much a given from the beginning. But they lost the moral level of war with the people who actually matter – the Russians.

Moreover, the Russian leadership have very effectively fought back against the Western powers in the information war, domestically – though they have totally failed internationally. They have banned almost all Western media sources (though you can still access them easily enough using VPNs – which the Russian government doesn’t much care about, by the way). Their TV channels do show dissenting voices from within their own country, but they are very much in the minority. And they constantly display pictures and videos of their own “polite people” distributing aid and help to the citizens of the LDNR, who have spent the last EIGHT YEARS dealing with the hell of war and invasion by the Ukrainians.

THIS, my friends, is why the Neo-Tsar now enjoys an approval rating somewhere around 80-85%. He is now the head of a government that has convinced its people that Russia is in the midst of an existential war that will determine whether Russia stays proud, free, and strong – and he is right to phrase it in those terms, because the West clearly wants Russia to be fatally weakened. Western military and political leaders have literally said as much.

Conclusion – Merging the Wars of Perception and Reality

The failure of the Russians to engage in substantial moral warfare within the hearts and minds of the West can be, and largely is, regarded as a colossal one. But most analysts miss the fact that, in the rest of the world, the NOT COMPLETELY STUPID part of the world that also happens to contain most of the globe’s population, are FIRMLY on Russia’s side.

The countries that actually matter, the ones that want to buy Russian energy and food and other exports, all have had quite enough of taking the West’s shit for decades. They see Russia as a bulwark against the Empire of Lies, whether they think in those terms or not. They understand that, if Russia falls to the depredations of the West, then they are next. Certainly that is how the Chinese think. So too do the Indians, and many South American nations, and assuredly the African nations.

Never mind that most of those countries are complete shitholes that cannot maintain decent plumbing and sewage systems. Their people and leaders have a deep dislike of Western attempts to impose GloboHomoPaedo “values” into their societies, and want nothing to do with such nonsense.

This, then, is how you win the wars of perception and reality. You target the countries that actually matter, and fight the information war among them – not among the people of your enemies, who clearly hate you no matter what.

This holds lessons for all of us. We, as Christians, need to understand ONCE AND FOR ALL that there is NO negotiation with our enemies. They don’t want to hear it, they simply want us to be destroyed. We should not waste our time trying to reach out to the GloboHomoPaedo types. We must instead work with cultures and peoples that hate such nonsense and want to see it destroyed.

At the same time, we must also understand that those same peoples do not share our views and values, and do not want to become Christians. And that is their problem. They will go to Hell and pay the price for their lack of vision. It is not up to you to try to save them, so do not concern yourself with it. If you can by some chance convince Muslims, Hindus, atheists, Buddhists, or New Agers to get on board, great – but make sure that they do so in a Scripturally sound fashion, not in the woolly nonsensical “God loves you just the way you are” bullshit manner that so many so-called “Christian” evangelists use.

Only by accepting reality for what it is, and fighting on the terms offered by that field of war, can we then turn perception around to our side. We do that by accepting that the other side is plainly unhinged and detached from reality, and ignoring them. Instead, reach out to those who can see the other side’s insanity, and are uncomfortable with it, but are not yet convinced which side they want to join. Offer them the clear understanding that only Truth can bring. Tell them to reject the lies. Give them sincere friendship based on mutual exchanges of goods and services. And leave them the heck alone otherwise, unless they seek to be set free from the chains of sin.

One last point: the Russians and their allies are not angels. They have made mistakes, they have killed civilians, they have bombed places that they should not have, and that is to be expected. But they have conducted this war, on the whole, far better and more humanely than the Empire of Lies has ever conducted any of its wars of “liberation”. And I believe we will see that reality come to light, and shatter the perceptions of the West, in short order.
