More wishcasting from Nadin. What she describes here is actually more applicable to the Ukrainians, who absolutely hate Russians. Do not forget, Russia considers Ukrainians to be a "fraternal people" - it is the Ukrainians (or at least the ultranationalists) who consider Russians to be "cockroaches", "Orcs" and "Untermenschen". They roundly REJECT the idea that Ukrainians and Russians are anything alike, and Ukrainian propaganda is rife with all manner of refutations of a shared history between the two people - all the easier, then, to execute them, torture them and otherwise treat them as "nonhuman", as Yatsenuk called them when he declared war on the Donbas in 2014.

Regarding Kursk, let's look at this "offensive" for what it is: doubling down on stupid. Once more Ukraine is creating its own meat grinder, just as they did in Bakhmut and Avdeevka.

For most people, the first rule when you have dug yourself into a hole is to STOP DIGGING. Apparently this lesson does not apply to Zelensky and Syrski, who are content to keep sending their people to the slaughter in a sad, desperate attempt to impress their Western masters in London and Washington.

These are Ukraine's best equipped, best trained troops, with a high percentage of foreign mercenaries to strengthen their ranks, and now they are simply pushing forward to a place even further away from any hope of resupply.

In 1943, the Soviets killed 400,000 Nazis in the Battle of Kursk. Now the Ukrainian ultranationalist "elites" are about to join their German brethren, and this ill-considered "offensive" wil simply accelerate that process.
