It is always secret information as to losses of lives and equipment so the enemies never knows how effective or not their decisions have been. I sincerely hope Russia takes a lesson from Iran and targets those supplying information, equipment and personnel to Ukraine. It is very unfortunate that Ukraine and Russia have to suffer from the US and NATO aggressions. Just as in Palestine,and Lebanon. The US is largely responsible for the carnage as they supply the means. It is war so Putin should do what is necessary to accomplish his goal of protecting the Ethnic Russian Ukrainian and Russian people from such attrition.
The Ukraine War has never really been a war between Russia and Ukraine. It is a war between the collective West and Russia. Ukraine is just the battlefield where it is happening. It makes no sense to me why the West hates Russia so much, but the hatred is so intense they have been willing to send over a million Ukrainian soldiers to their death in a failed attempt to give Russia a black eye.
Washington regards the USSR/Russia as a "rogue state," based on its Bolshevik origins. Washington invaded the USSR in 1918, deploying about 13,000 troops to fight on the side of the right-wing, conservative White Russians against the left-wing Bolsheviks in the civil war. Generally, the White Russians wanted a return to the Tsarist imperial order, and this is apparently what Washington wanted. The Bolsheviks expelled the White Russians, who formed anti-communist movements in other countries, such as the U.S. and Germany. For example, White Russian emigres significantly influenced the ideology of Nazism, which was based on rabid anti-communism and anti-semitism. Through the Aufbau and other fascist organizations, White Russian exiles helped shape the core pillars of Hitler's National Socialism.
I agree with all of this, but would add that Hitler's National Socialism was socialism in name only, just as our Democratic Party is not democratic and our Republican Party doesn't really believe in a republic.
From Gemini AI Overview: "Historical Name Origin [of National Socialism]: The term 'Socialist' was added to the party name in 1920 by early organizers. At the time, socialist ideas were very popular in Germany, and the party used this label as a populist trick to win over the masses and lure workers away from actual Marxist and communist movements." The naming of the Nazi party was a right-wing populist trick to lure voters away from the Socialist and Communist parties.

I have mixed feelings about AI, but it got this one exactly right. So, thanks.
