Approximately six days from now I will share a great deal of information on World War Reddit. I took the insert picture about a week ago as a Ukraine drone struck a venue 500 meters from my location. Suffice to say, I’m not reporting information to you based on propaganda media, seriously skewed alt-media or misinterpreted/intercepted Telegram channel discussion; there’s an information war on that platform also.
Almost everything being told, shared and sold about the Russia vs Ukraine conflict is entirely made-up nonsense that has zero basis in reality. My goal has been to find out why there is this much effort toward twilight-zone level propaganda being pushed by unified interests in western media. Honestly, it’s beyond crazy.
According to Ukraine/NATO media, and probably soon to be shared by President Trump, “Russia suffered 42,860 battlefield casualties in July, its highest monthly losses since January 2025.” This type of stuff is so far beyond silly no one can figure out where they come up with the ideas for the rates.
In media headlines you might have read that Ukraine is celebrating the biggest launch of drones against Russia in a single day, Sunday. The Russian media counter by saying they have shot down 822 drones, with 600 of them targeting the Russian capital of Moscow.
Inside Russia, none of this stuff is happening; however, the govt of Putin finds some sort of purpose/value (personally I think it is just Russian humor) in countering the Ukraine nonsense by accepting the claim and then reiterating it in their claims of interception.
It’s all an illusion. First, the illusion makes it look like Russia is under bombardment (western happy), and then the Federation flips the script (it is indeed a script) and uses the claim as evidence of their exceptional capabilities at interception of the non-existent.
If you are suddenly cross-eyed, yes, that’s the level of crazy I’m talking about.
(VIA CBS) – Ukraine launched hundreds of drones across Russia Sunday, killing at least six people in one of Kyiv’s largest aerial attacks of the war.
Russia’s Ministry of Defense said that it had destroyed 822 Ukrainian drones overnight. Some 600 drones were detected headed toward the Russian capital, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said, with a third of those destroyed over the Moscow region itself.
An 83-year-old man was killed after a Ukrainian drone hit a private home in the Moscow region, local Gov. Andrey Vorobyov said. He also confirmed that a Ukrainian attack had sparked a blaze at a Wildberries warehouse in the town of Podolsk.
A drone attack targeted three towns in Russia’s southwestern Rostov region, killing five people, local Gov. Yury Slyusar said. The attack, with more than 150 drones, damaged several homes and a railway station and sparked a forest fire.
Kyiv has stepped up its attacks on Russia this year, with long-range missiles and swarms of drones increasingly targeting military industries and energy facilities. It has also increasingly pummeled giant Wildberries depots, burning billions of dollars’ worth of merchandise belonging to the Russian online retail giant and bringing the war home to the Russian public nearly four and half years into Moscow’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. (read more)
It is accurate that Ukraine drones have hit about a half dozen Wildberries distribution centers. Think about Wildberries as if you combined Amazon with E-Bay. What would life be like in America if a dozen (out of 1,300) Amazon distribution centers caught fire? Well, that’s the sum of the disruption.
All those stories of gasoline refineries taken offline(?). More nonsense.
Gasoline shortages(?), total gibberish – beyond silly.
Beyond the overstated drone attacks all this stuff about military industrial centers, energy facilities and infrastructure being damaged is non-existent. So, why is this such a common thing to read about? Factually, I have no idea. It’s like me telling you that right now there’s a gorilla in your bathtub playing chess, and all your neighbors believe it.
Somewhere there is also a story about a new FP-9 Ukraine ballistic missile about to go into operation (next 60 days). They are supposedly working out an issue with the rocket engines. However, where they are being built is not easy to determine. All indications are in Europe somewhere.
The FP-9 is part of a rushed missile and defense system from a company called Fire Point {citation} that is hoped to replace the missing U.S. Patriot Missile (defense) and Tomahawk missile (offense) that Ukraine and Germany have desperately been seeking. As the story is told, the funding comes from Ukraine, the targeting system from Germany and the build operations are taking place somewhere unknown.
I don’t have it all figured out yet, but from what is visible on the surface is there appears to be a plan to drag out the conflict as long as possible, often with as outlandish claims as needed, in order to structure some kind of narrative that will eventually bring Europe -maybe NATO- into a direct combat operation against the Russian Federation.
Two Ukrainian Warriors defended their position just 30 meters from Russian forces for more than five months.
They took up the position in February. The relative calm lasted only a month; for the rest of the time, Russians regularly assaulted their dugout.

This is not just a missile.
It is Ukraine's entry into the strategic leagueLook at that beauty — FP‑9, Ukraine’s home‑grown ballistic missile.
Suspended like a predator ready to strike. Not a prototype anymore. A promise.

“Truth is the first casualty of war.”
Accurate it seems…
The media thinks they are the caterpillar-drive in the Hunt for Red October but they didn’t know about Jonesy, aka Sundance.
Actually….
It is real

So, SD, what reasons, deep, I’m sure, do you think are behind all this? Is it just money, or money and power?
The Fog Of War is now The Pea Soup Of War.
Looks like a MAGA sign in the background.
FP-9 funding coming from Ukraine is on par with America’s foreign invaders paying for things with their own money.
Looks like Putin underestimated Ukraine even more than President Trump underestimated the Iranian regime..
Sun Tzu hade much to say about the consequences of underestimating ones opponents. Seems they both pretty much ignored him.
Quite a legend that sun tzu – always right, always perfect – sounds too good to be true… perfect idol for derp-state haters. If Sundance is correct, he’s a real person BTW, we will find out shortly how much Putin underestimated nazi-krain.
There is no evidence that either part of this statement is correct.
Absolutely none GM! 😎
Said the military genius himself! Spit
World War Reddit is going to get a lot more innocent people killed! Un-mask the midget!!!
I have believed for years now that the whole war was fake. If it wasn’t, there would be video, photos, and reports from citizens on social media all the time.
It’s nonsense. It’s reminiscent of “Wag the Dog.” People will buy anything now, I guess.
Since 1990 the general public has been given — albeit all ‘news’ is propaganda and war news doubly so — daily video clips of just about any conflict and the official US story about what’s happening.
This one is so bereft of anything *but* the infowar claims including those on social media that sometimes I’ve wondered if the whole thing is happening at all.
Definitely our tax money is going away but other than grift one can’t be sure; and some portion of our armament likewise (but is that separate from or combined from the great muhammedan arm-up Brandon conducted in Afghanistan?)
I’m 100% sure that if the casualty rates of either Ukr, Rus, or ‘independent’ sets of claims were at all accurate that this thing would’ve ended for lack of people to conduct it some years ago.
According to the Simplicius substack (which has a severe case of TDS, but still has good Ukraine intel and analysis) that in order to make the drone explosions more dreadful looking and impactful, the AFU adds a petroleum distillate of some sort (I think, but something like that) to the payload which creates the huge, black billowing clouds of smoke from the explosions.
This supposedly has some sort of psychological effect of making the attack appear more destructive than it actually is.
“Simplicius substack (which has a severe case of TDS, but still has good Ukraine intel and analysis)”
I read the free version, but only posted a link to that over here once or twice.
“According to Ukraine/NATO media, and probably soon to be shared by President Trump, “Russia suffered 42,860 battlefield casualties in July, its highest monthly losses since January 2025.” This type of stuff is so far beyond silly no one can figure out where they come up with the ideas for the rates.”
In May 2026, Marco Rubio estimated that Russian monthly death tolls range from 15,000 to 20,000 soldiers, explicitly noting that these figures represent deaths only and do not include the wounded. He contrasted this with Ukrainian losses, stating that Russia is suffering fatalities at a ratio of roughly five times that of Ukraine.
Are we to believe Marco Rubio is lying and doing so very-very big time ?
“It’s all an illusion.”
Which is why there have been no western correspondents with boots on the ground reporting. It is possible to “stage” a make believe act here and there with crisis actors, etc. . However, maintaining that illusion is futile – which is why it is not being done.

Ukrainian drones go bang.
Russian drones go kaboom!
the only war not covered with on the ground video since cameras and tell-a-vision were invented
battles depicted in hieroglyphics on cave walls are more numerous than this modern day conflict
puzzling indeed
There are 8 billion folks on earth and 80% have cell phones… We have never seen actual footage at the macro scale in four years.
How many hundreds of billions have the Deep State taken to be laundered through Ukraine?!
Yeah… I have never believed much from the Western media over that time.
One thing is for sure. With both Hillary Clinton and John Brennan saying “if Trump can end the Ukraine war then he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize ” it is very likely the war will not end until Trump is out of office. The Coalition of the Willing will not give Trump a victory.
They also seemed to have mined a rich seam of deception that the Soviets regularly used in WW2 to create similar fantasy narratives, especially in the dark days, before victory was certain against the Nazis. All sides, during that conflict, exaggerated the heroism and effectiveness of their forces whilst omitting facts that might damage morale, but the totalitarian combatants took this to a new level.
The Russians created entire fictional episodes, putting huge resources behind them to maintain the fiction, even after the war had finished, whilst the Nazi’s tales were largely Post-War accounts excusing mistakes made by senior commanders and used as narrative shaping exercises. Both, unfortunately, were willingly accepted by the Western protos-DS, who found themselves having to simultaneously portray the Soviets as a huge threat, but capable of being deterred and even defeated by the fledgling NATO. Though that transition is a tale in itself, which used methods very familiar to today’s citizens.
The Ukraine conflict is just a continuation of this tendency to fabricate conflict narratives. Aided, and richly abetted, by Social Media these techniques have now matured to such a degree that virtually the entire history of a conflict can be manufactured, unlike before where only certain elements could be ‘cultivated’ and created.
The City of London is doing its best to keep the chaos going.
Sundance gettin all clandestine
The Child-Trafficking Dictators of Europe, Ukraine and CIA need a Public Enemy to stay out prison themselves and to continue the Money Laundering.
How come I have never heard any whining from the US media about their inability to access the battle areas for “in depth analysis” by reporters wearing helmets and flak vests while AK’s rattle in the background?
I still remember the idiot reporters in Iraq when cruise missles started coming in.
Mike Pompeo. One of the usual suspects whose name keeps coming up in stuff like this.
A name I wasn’t familiar with, Iryna Terekh the CEO of Fire Point. Some interesting things about her.
