Folks, I recorded the below earlier today on my lunch break, that’s a wrap for now, I don’t have the time (or energy) to post another 21 new videos. Thanks for all the money, I GREATLY appreciate it! Yes, Leopard tanks AND (the American) Bradleys have been destroyed in the Ukraine in the last 24 hours. Who is this equipment assigned to? Listen and find out. My last word for today:
(Audio file duration: 5:52)
(Perhaps needless to say, the Zelensky government and its propaganda outlets are mum, mum, mum on what’s going on, at the southern front. As I told you, there will be NO ADMISSION / ANNOUNCEMENT of any “Big Counteroffensive” from these bull-shytters UNTIL/UNLESS they have some RESULTS. Even as the hospitals fill up. Of course, a few soldiers speaking privately with the Bezos (Washington) Post, does not constitute an “announcement.”)
As always, please be familiar with my Comments Policy, at bottom. Thank you.

Comments Policy
I really appreciate good comments. Many people come back here, in-between posts, just to read the comments. If you help me entertain them, you’re my hero. A few rules: This is not a chat board. Your comment must primarily, largely involve and directly touch upon something that, or someone whom, I wrote about in the post you’re commenting on. Life reminiscences (if relevant), relating your relevant personal experiences, your job, your commie college girlfriend, your idiot family members, your Ukrainian coworker, etc., if relevant, are all HIGHLY encouraged. The most interesting content here… is YOU. The only exceptions to the on-topic requirement, are if you’re calling attention to a technical problem with the site, or briefly stating how much you love the content or this Comments Policy. Don’t try to “legitimize” an off-topic comment by throwing in some little pre-thought or afterthought about what I wrote. NO DISCUSSIONS THAT STRAY FROM MY TOPICS. My topics are the only common denominator here, and while it may amuse you, most readers have no interest in your thoughts on the Punic wars, or on some guy named Serge, or on how much you generally / generically don’t like the Ukraine and Zelensky; it’s your way to kill your own time, but it adds no value for others. Which means, if you’re responding to someone else’s comment, your response must still relate directly to one of my topics. Doesn’t matter how much you generously donated, these rules apply equally to everyone. 350 word limit, no exceptions, 351 words won’t be published, sorry. No rambling. If you’re not sure what “rambling” is, ask yourself, “Are others likely to understand and appreciate or enjoy my comment, or am I merely jerking off“? Nazis, commies, worshipful groupies of Mercouris/Johnson/etc., Jew baiters/haters, FBI agents-provocateurs, guys who forgot to take their Ritalin, passive-aggressive needling of the sysop or of other commenters (to include, by dipshits who think their attitude will fly if they mention possibly maybe potentially giving me money at some point—yes, “you people” are all the same), random questions that have no bearing on what I wrote (to include requests for my view on some commentator I’ve never heard of), no-punctuation writing by the smartphone generation, silly “Nadsat” lingo picked up from “The Saker” website, use of the BS term “SMO“, ALL CAPS writing (a sure sign of untreated autism), obsessives who just can’t leave a topic alone after they’ve already said everything (and just want to repeat themselves), and autistic bitching about the satanic USA and its evil pedo pervert elites and how they must be killed (or other bile in that vein), will not be tolerated. If you’ve got issues, this is not your “let it go” zone. Don’t write anything here, that your therapist wouldn’t approve of.
No Dreizin tax?
Jacob. I have a question. Regarding your Dreizin tax that you require from your followers. Is it a progressive tax? As in, if I make more money than the next guy should I pay more? I do okay with my income, better than most in my area. Do you require a W2?
I love your well thought out opinions about war, economics, and social happenings in the US and the world. I agree mostly with you and look forward to your mussing.
Hello. The Dreizin tax is about, how much is it worth to you, relative to, how much can you afford?
Great answer. More like a trade then. lol
Even Euro Media is now writing about the losses. For example the IRIS-T SLM the Ukrainians put up on the front and that was “affected by a Russian drone”. A whole system incl. Radar costs 140 Mio (I guess the drone didn’t catch everything). Of course, as all Western systems perform in Ukraine, it has an efficiency of 900%, acc. to the Ukrainian MoD, well known for its highly reliable numbers (“We shot down 65 out of 30 missiles and the 40 exploding targets suffered from spontaneous self ignition. And we shot down 5 Kinzhals with chicken-catapults!”).
Looking at the pictures of 10 or so armored vehicles side by side in the field I guess that Zelensky has worked out the battle plan personally. The guy is a military genius, now I see it too. I guess after some 5000 dead they might penetrate the first echelon.
US manufactured M1224 Maxxpro MRAP (Mine Resistant Ambush Protected) vehicles are finding Russian weapons and mines to be slightly more lethal than Afghani IEDs….
This great counter-wokefensive of the Globohomo Empire’s War against Russia will be taught at military academies around the world for decades and decades.
Yeah.
The 47th brigade, being the hot shots that they are, not only got dibs on the best equipment but also got dibs on getting their asses handed to them! LOL
Now the new story is that they’re trying to show Russia that the war isn’t worth continuing. No more talk about how they’re gonna negotiate Russia’s capitulation of Crimea.
Damn shame.
I will say one thing, these guys who are UKR volunteers have absolute balls of steel. They know the number of casualties that have been inflicted on Ukrainian forces by the Russians. They must surely be aware that being the tip of the spear to try and break through Russian lines will get them hammered and yet they willingly fling themselves into hell regardless.
I am sure Valhalla awaits these madmen lol
“Willingly fling themselves into hell”? The odds of survival going forward exceed those of getting shot by your CO should you not. Seems Ukranian officers don’t allow for time outs or safe space visits.
Absolutely, they are totally into “suicide by Russian cop”, they deserve to meet Odin personally. Awesome guys.
One point made was that the dam could have failed on its own due to previous damage. That had not occurred to me and is a bit reassuring in a way if true. It is hard to accept the timing, though.
Thanks, good comment but you’ve got the wrong post, this is now off-topic, please see my Comments Policy.
i love your audio files. Thsanks
So what does the necon crew dream up now on their drawing board? More of the same?
They are not nice people! They will do what psychopaths and abusive individuals do, transfer their malice INWARD. It stands to reason, they will NEVER consider THEMSELVES wrong! They are in too far a privileged hall of mirrors surrounded by beltway sycophants whatnot. They have lost on their “investment” with this. It’s my guess they will NOT take this nicely. The “return on investment” MUST come from “elsewhere”. Watch out with this bunch!
LOL, you’ve just described pretty much every living human. When the chips are down, who’s ever wrong or responsible for anything?
I was thinking it would be awfully good of the Russian chaps, to install a granite plinth opposite the German Embassy and mount a Leopard Tank on it. (I would suggest the Russians paint the Swastika on it, if not already applied, even if inverted, as is their custom.)
I saw one the dead leopards had an iron cross painted on it.
It will be worth doing a tour of the Military and Victory museums in Moscow in a couple of years, to see the Nazi Leopard tanks next to the Nazi Tiger and Panther Tanks. That’s if one is still allowed to travel. Might have to go via République du Cameroun.
Of course they will continue. Next throw in the Poles, Romanians etc. then the western Europeans. Finally the USA, Brits, Canadians if needed.
Some additional interesting photos have emerged
The West, and particularly the US, is being demonstrated to be a paper tiger. The vaunted fleets of the US Navy have become an anachronism in light of hypersonic weaponry. The US has offshored almost the entire manufacturing base. The primacy of the dollar (and the legitimacy of all fiat currencies) is being rapidly undermined. As a citizen of the United States, I applaud all of it, and look forward to the day when the fruits of our abandonment of Constitutional government finally bring the entire corrupt edifice crashing down.
The problem is that many people, all those follower souls who consume TV……………………………………..
Sorry, but please see my Comments Policy, let’s stay at least halfway on-topic.
Concerning the USN…………………………
Sorry, but this is 100% off-topic for my given post. Please see my Comments Policy.
The tip of the spear may be gone, given the decision making the Ukrainian “leadership” and their handlers have displayed to date the shaft of the spear will now be rammed into the wood chipper regardless. There will be gains, but probably small, definitely temporary, and won at horrific cost, if they do.
Tip of the spear is more like the fist of the US getting another bunch of utterly idiotic pawns killed for their own nefarious ends. Ukraine will join various others on the wall of legendary US patsies fighting against people who they should be (in a sane world) aligned with thanks to historic ties, culture and language.
I mean there’s an endless line of loons willing to help the US, Vietnamese, Indonesians, Kosovans, El Salvadorians, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Angola etc etc etc and sure to be more in the future.
Can only hope de-dollarisation will end the US’s ability to be able to afford military outposts and operations globally.
That Leopard ambush looked nothing looked nothing like an assault and more like a head long rush into a turkey shoot. As soon as the first vehicle was struck and brewed up the unit went into full blown panic mode and lost all cohesion. I would almost think they had believed their own propaganda and expected the Russians to panic and retreat upon the sight of all those western tanks.
“They just have to go back to the drawing board or give it up; which do you think they’ll do?”.
Give it up? Does anyone believe that Blinken, Nuland and Biden would be allowed to give it up, even if they wanted to?
They are cults and Satanists…………………………………
Per my Comments Policy, please keep it at least somewhat on-topic, thanks.
Not sure where I read this but it really resonated with me – this war is a reflection of the internalized arrogance and contempt the western government and business elites have for the rest of the world. Maybe on Gilbert Doctorow’s site. This arrogance and contempt has so blinded them to obvious facts and overwhelming evidence of Russian military superiority in Ukraine that they still can’t bring themselves to even introductory diplomatic discussions. Blinken is still running his mouth about Russian strategic losses… blah blah blah. The universe has a sense of humor at least – Blinken(g), Biden(g) and (Exh)Austin!
Exactly! Covidmania started to subside…………………………
Sorry, but this is 100% off-topic for my given post. Please see my Comments Policy.
Great news! Vicki Nu meets her Waterloo. Thanks Jacob.
When will Americans finally appear on the front so that real killing can start. USA has already too many people living there. I’d like to see all these American superhero get blown to pieces.I bet you any money Jacob you won’t allow my comment.
No need to bet anything, just see my Comments Policy.
One little set back and you lose your faith. How could you be so weak. We are on the way to final victory. That victory rests on our faith in the Führer. Zelensky will pay a visit to the front and lift our spirit and lead us to our rightful place in history.
I would have expected a lengthy prelude (several days) of massive artillery bombardment. Did this happen? After all the disposition and strength of forces is pretty much known to both sides – this war has become 3 yards and a cloud of dust. If the failure is as abysmal as described here I would expect another Ukrainian attempt to escalate. Do you think CBR weapons are out of the question?
Nothing is off the table. Blow up a pipeline in international waters, destroy a dam. Roll the dice.
Not enough ammo for long foreplay.
In modern war today there can be no surprise offensive. Modern recon and surveillance won’t allow it. The defense has once again taken it’s turn in history as having the advantage.On top of that the Ukrainians had to charge over flat and open ground through mine fields or on roads into the teeth of pre-sighted artillery and a well trained and dug in Russian army The lack of any kind of anti-air defenses or air support made the assault a turkey shoot for the Russian attack helicopters and ground attack aircraft.
To attempt it at all was sheer insanity. What a waste of men and material. The fat lady might not be singing yet, but I can hear her back stage warming up….
This is all for the benefit of the US neocons to test out military hardware and battle tactics. These attacks reminded me of the movie “Zulu” (I believe) where the Chief sacrificed warriors to count how many guns the British had
Same can be said about the Russian side, but with the added benefit of actually having rank and file experience and learn of it’s adversary first hand.
The Russians have the disadvantage, though, that they are learning with their own bodies. The US has others, right now the Ukrainians, doing the dying for them while the US studies the results.
(Jacob, maybe straying off topic at this point, but given the direction of this thread, I think this point, which I have made before, needs to be repeated.)
It’s halfway on-topic, good enough.
Battle tactics and hardware are all there to see now for the West, fight the Russians and face a shit ton of artillery, drones, missiles, stuff you have no chance against like Hypersonics and die in droves. They have their satellites, they have their electronic warfare, they can stop JDAMs, destroy Patriots, kill or put out of action your top people. Most of all they have highly motivated soldiers who know this is a fight for existence of Russia.
Best bit of advice for NATO is if they plan on going in is put up a big tender for body bags, I’m sure there will be some vampiric parasite of a defence corp in the US waiting to rinse taxpayers for that order.
Their only chance was to throw literally everything in to simply over run the defenders and just eat the cost. Spending half measures bought them nothing, and now they are broke.
“Hey We are not out of dirty tricks.” VZ
I love reading and listening to your commentary even though I sometimes balk at your style.
You are the only one that I have heard claiming that the Ukrainian elite forces were the one’s involved. Your friend Alexander at the Duran stated that the best troops and weapons were held back. Me, here in New Zealand, I don’t know, but I appreciate hearing in 5 minutes what others take over an hour to say.

Good to know I’m not the only one in New Zealand reading Jacob. Thoroughly enjoyed the audio. Ditched the Duran months ago. (Coromandel)
Спасибо тебе, Джейкоб. Я надеюсь, что Запад отступит. Однако я этого не ожидаю и думаю, что Россия будет продолжать оставаться готовой.
I suspect that there will be big rows behind closed doors in Washington and NATO headquarters . The result will probably be to tweak things and try again . There are lots of big reputations and careers which are possibly on the line and the poor bloody Ukrainians are expendable . Where they will get the equipment and ammunition from is another question .
I hear they are going to lock the gates at Scranton Ammunition Plant and throw food and TP over the walls.
This would be a major tweak: from a Sr Fellow at AEI

Why the intro pic of Georgio ? Just random reference, I suppose…….
someone please do a welfare check on Victoria Nuland
Thank you for the updates!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you !!!
I’m curious what the names are of these hot shot commanders who fucked it up.
Just looking on Wiki re: 47th Mechanised Brigade; it says Zaluzhny appointed Lt Col.Oleksandr Sak as commander. This also in a Washington Post article (4th of June) and Valerii Markus is named as Chief Master Sgt. 28 years old, 29 years old respectively.
Well, it looks like Col. Sak is about to be sak-ed for that full frontal assault, Red Army 1941-style.
“Here’s a pistol. Don’t leave this room.”
here’s col Sak:
