Another massively provable BOLD PUTIN LIE: We kill ten times as many Ukrainians than we lose

Video: Decapitation: How the Boers dealt with violent crowds of Blacks
A young Boer I knew, Gilbert, told me of the time in the early 1990s when he served in the South African Army and was stationed in the townships. He described the tactics the Boers used to smash violent black crowds with a minimum loss of life.
Another insanely huge lie, which has been disprovable since the early days of the Ukraine, was Putin’s crazy claim that they kill 10x as many Ukrainians than they lose. This is just total horse shit. I’ve been watching the combat ratios like a hawk since the start of the war. I’ve looked at what each side admitted, and I looked at many other facts, sources and analyses. There is no way in hell that this is even mildly true.
I’ve said since the beginning that the Ukrainians are definitely killing more Russians. That ratio has now settled down over the last 15 months and that ratio is 2:1 in favour of Ukraine. For every Ukrainian who dies, 2 Russians die – AT LEAST – sometimes more. The ratio can, in some circumstances, be as high as 2.7:1. Now that the Ukrainians are on the offensive this ratio could drop a lot. It could drop to 1.5:1 or maybe even 1:1. We will have to see.
From what I can see of the daily fighting, the Ukrainians are trying their UTMOST to not take heavy casualties so they are fighting in a very clever way. It slows things down a lot, but it keeps their death rate lower. Even so, the ratio will drop. But I can’t say how much.
The war is EXTREMELY INTENSIVE. We’ve not seen anything like this since WW2. It is crazy wild.
Putin’s big bold confident statement of 10:1 is just TOTAL HOGWASH.
The reality, as far as I can estimate from the numbers, is that the Russian Ministry of Defense is dividing Russian deaths by 12 in order to arrive at their totally ridiculous number of 7,000 dead.
Putin is lying through his teeth as is the Russian Ministry of Defence about Russian casualties and Russian death rates.
Putin has to lie in order to keep the Russians happy and in order to assure the mothers that their sons are not dying.
If the Russian people knew the truth about how much they had lost in Ukraine in 15 months they would be shocked to the core. Putin’s army has lost more people and weapons in 15 months in Ukraine than in Afghanistan, Angola or any of the many other wars that Russia has been involved in since WW2.
The loss in human life and in weaponry is staggering.
Putin’s 10 Day Special Military Operation has gone very wrong due to the British and the Americans being the main drivers in sending weapons to Ukraine.
For the record, Ukraine produces a LOT of weapons itself. But that’s another topic for another day.
