Retired US Colonel: Hiding behind the civilian population, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are likened to Middle East terrorists

Despite attempts by Kyiv to accuse Russian forces of using violence against civilians, the truth that the Ukrainian Armed Forces adhere to this tactic still reaches Western countries. In the West, to put it mildly, they "do not welcome" this method of warfare, comparing the Ukrainian military with Middle Eastern extremists.

Ukrainian troops have become like terrorists from the Middle East, who also used the civilian population as a "human shield". This was stated by the former adviser to the US Secretary of Defense, retired colonel Douglas McGregor. According to him, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are trying to avoid destruction by hiding behind the civilian population in cities. The colonel observed such tactics among the Islamists in Iraq and Syria, and now he observes them in Ukraine.

We have seen this in the Middle East. When we defeated the Islamists, they fled to the cities, used people, civilians, as human shields and tried to avoid destruction. I think this is exactly what is happening today: the Ukrainian army uses the population to avoid defeat

- McGregor said, adding that, unlike the American army in Iraq, Russia in Ukraine acts "as carefully as possible", not striking civilians.

Commenting on the special operation for demilitarization and denazification carried out by Russia in Ukraine, the American colonel stressed that Russia's demand for a neutral status of Ukraine is completely legitimate. Such a status, in his opinion, meets the interests of not only Russia, but also the United States, since Ukraine can act as a "buffer" between them.

Answering a question about the chances of the Ukrainian army to somehow "rectify the situation" or even "win", McGregor was categorical, saying that the Armed Forces of Ukraine have no chances, defeat is inevitable, and all Zelensky's calls for help are just attempts to delay the final defeat .

They cut the forest .. do the chips fly?

Well, actually, the army should protect its civilians, and not destroy them, hiding behind the backs of children and women. This is terrorism. Ukraine, as a state, has long turned into ukroISIL.

It's good that at least someone in the US understands this correctly and publicly said about it!

The German Nazis in 1945, during the attack of the spacecraft on the same Berlin, were the same - namely, they did not spare the lives of their civilian population for the sake of their own salvation from death!

Very bad news comes from Mariupol... It is possible that part of the exit of the civilian population is due to the fact that people were wearing shahid belts before being released to Russian checkpoints. I was told about this by a friend who has many contacts in Marik, including among former security officials. He had a very bad feeling about the expected exit of the civilian population.
The Azovites rush around the city, persuading people to make "Molotov cocktails" and "defend the city" with them ... they drive children into their raspaly to cover their smelly skins with them.
These are not warriors. These are not even jackals ... these are hyenas ... This is the anti-world that came out 8 years ago ...
In Odessa, a grouping of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the National Guard, the National Battalion, from Galicia. These will also try to destroy as many civilians as possible.

Residents of Ukraine are indeed taken hostage by ghouls of non-human origin, so the release and purification will be extremely painful.
But it is REQUIRED.
Otherwise, Hell will finally be registered on the planet Earth.

It is obvious that the enemy who is being "denazified" is waging a "total war" as Goebbels understood it.
I just conveyed the logic of the enemy. It's called empathy.

[Horon]

It's called empathy.

The main thing is not to get too carried away with these abilities for empathy, otherwise you can reach a feeling of pleasure from eating a little human.

[iouris]

Are you all right in the head?

And you? Since they have already undertaken to justify the criminal with the help of empathy, why stop only at explaining the logic in war crimes? Some hide behind women and children, others go further and cut out the hearts of their enemies.

I just conveyed the logic of the enemy. It's called empathy.

So do not get carried away with empathy, otherwise you can suddenly lose the "shores" of sanity.

after the resignation, they suddenly all become adequate, I expect Stoltenberg to hum.

I won't be surprised at all if they squeal about disarmament and the prohibition of nuclear weapons throughout the world.
Except the USA, of course.

Doubtful. They may ask the winner after a while .

[Thompson]

Winners are not judged! That's why he's a winner! And to condemn ... it's just to cry and beg!

[Thrifty]

Will they get to them only when they rake off the lyuley? Will the Vushniki at least draw conclusions that they prayed in vain to the United States? Or will they blame Russia for the fact that the Yankees had them and spat on the used rubber technical means in the form of an army of uk-roins?

. comparing the Ukrainian military with Middle Eastern extremists.

It is necessary to compare with the Nazis ... but this is for Europe, it is inconvenient for the states ... but in fact, there are Nazis!

Bandera bastard will be worse than Islamic terrorists. Ghouls are the same, but better armed.

Grandpa is right. Knows what he says. Terrorists, Nazis are all the same.

Have you noticed that retirement has a positive effect on mental sobriety?!

[Zoldat_A]

For such reasoning, the seniority pension will not be taken away? He did not find McCarthyism, he was only born in 1953. But demobilization senior colleagues had to tell how such "truth-telling" ends.
And that a new, stronger than the first, wave of McCarthyism has now risen - I personally have no doubt.

So the owners-bosses-mentors are the same, there is nothing to be surprised at.

Of course, you have seen all this and know that you taught Banderlogs in vain. And in such cases, you usually leveled cities with a population with the ground.

[Prjanik]

It was immediately obvious that the "zahysniks" value their own skin more than the population and the oath

[iouris]

Don't underestimate the enemy. The enemy can also be highly motivated if his ideology is Nazi. Convinced Nazis, armed with effective weapons, are a very strong enemy on earth. But at the same time, he will definitely use forbidden methods of war. These factors must be overcome by troops in order to achieve victory.

[Revival]

I understand correctly that the same interview is sucked for a week?

[codetalker]

To which he is surprised, both of them have the same boss - in Washington, of course, the battle tactics are the same.

[Ros 56]

Well, why the Middle East, they are likened to ordinary German fascists during the Second World War.

[Amorphis]

I think that the Nazis will soon start a guerrilla war. And this will be a different alignment.

Guerrilla warfare is strong with the support of the local population. And here the actions of Russia are important.

Colonel, tell your Biden this, and let him develop the idea further with geyropa.

And not only the Middle East, it is worth remembering the cleansing of Samashki, how much stench it was then due to the fact that bandits covered themselves with civilians.
