most / majority of Americans would be completely disgusted if they knew the truth.

IF this is true, big if I hope: the involvement of people who have a US military designation does not mean that they are under the chain of command. There is such a thing as "Sheep Dipping", the CIA term for giving an agent, or even a CIA-hired mercenary "former" special forces, a fraudulent US military title so they can be called a US officer though in reality they are CIA. I insist that the CIA has never been a loyal US agency subordinate to the president but always it has been a private company in the service of its clientele who are and always have been a shifting and shadowy oligarchy among the international richest of the rich, those who own the world's central banks. The origin of the CIA goes back to the 1942 OSS and its alliance with international organized crime, especially drug crime and smuggling in general (including trading in children); the CIA still reflects this origin. It may play at supporting liberal-left or conservative right. But in essence the "operations" division with its criminal associations is not neutral; they come from a fascist orientation (corporatism, remember?) and they have always been essentially Nazi. At least ever since Alan Dulles rescued Reinhard Gehlen and made him head of NATO Intelligence the Nazi character of the CIA has been an ongoing tradition – not that the non-ops part of the CIA is aware of this. Ray McGovern and Susan Lindauer and personnel like them are certainly not drug running Nazis. It has to be understood that any Intelligence org or any secret society has to have a public face of sincere and legitimate people, people who don't know anything about the nefarious doings of the higher ups.

I go on too long as usual. But all I mean is that the US military is not monolithic. Especially now the US armed forces are probably as divided and near mutiny as they were in 1973, or worse. The actions of somebody with a US military designation, especially spotting artillery for a country at war with Russia (!!!???) does not in any wise indicate that they are acting under the orders of the US army or the DOD much less President Biden. The Pentagon may be full of crazies but playing games with the danger of nuclear war? Now when it's Not 1962? I hope to God we can doubt the hell out of this.

Don't worry, there is zero reason for a NATO general to be commanding Ukrainian troops, and zero likelyhood that IF such a high value target was somehow placed in a frontline city that was certain to be encircled, that he wouldn't be airlifted by now, with the helicopters Russia admitted to missing.

Nice satire. Seriously. Also, he's a Lieutenant General. And he's in Turkey. But, whatevs......

I'm going to say this to you very clearly. I don't know where you get your information, but you're not following a good stream. You need to get a more reliable source.

I'm not going to go into details as to why I know the information in this article is bunk (not that I would expect you to believe me anyway), but I'm 100% confident in my assessment that he's in Turkey. We could probably trot the man out in front of you now, and you'd probably think it's a body double.

Seriously had me going for a minute. I honestly thought this article was satire at first, but now it's clear that you truly believe it. Belive me when I tell you that the military doesn't use a general as a gopher.....they're far too high profile. Seriously, have none of you ever been in the military? If you had, you would understand how this line of thought sounds so completely illogical.

I linked the source. It isn't my fault that you do not know how to use the internet. I did laugh when you said "the military doesn't use a general as a gopher.....they're far too high profile." That indicates the low limit of your understanding of the chain of command above and beyond the dumb enslaved cannon fodder.

To say that your comment revealed more ignorance than you intended might be my most subtle remark of 2022 so far.

Dave, I think you pushed a button, because you got him to reveal how little he understands of the real world.

I laud your attempt to appeal to his sense of reason, but he's either being paid to post these opinions of his, or he's willingly playing dumb.

I am sorry to point this obvious fact out..... but..... your observation skills are as poor as your opinions. Look at the image in the avatar, look closely..... I AM FEMALE!! You trip up with every comment you make Egregious One.... it is embarrassing how dull witted you are.

Russians shot down 6 helicopters? First they claim 2, then 3, now suddenly 6? They can't even get their stories straight.

Also, the dude was in Izmir being photographed and witnessed, at the same time as commanding forces in a different country; quite a spectacular feat!

So are you a Russian bot, or did you just forget to use google?

Ad hominem attack = shill. You people are really useless at this, huh?

I'll just wait for Russia to release footage of their captured lieutenant general, just like I'll wait for Russian satellite imagery showing no bodies in the street in Bucha, or the sat/drone footage showing how they knew the Mariupol maternity ward was full of fortifications.

I'll probably wait a reaaaaaallly long time.

Because that's what it is: one side claiming 'unconfirmed rumors!' versus a horde of people working with, talking with and photographing the same guy in a completely different country, and yet I see so many people getting completely invested in believing the Russian state propaganda version, where all they have to do is release one itty little picture of the captured lieutenant general in what looks like Mariupol.

But I'll wait, while you tirelessly defend rumors.

And NATO has instructed the mediatic clergy to shut up!!

"Warning: A NATO/Internet wide National Security Letter has been issued blocking all reporting of the alleged capture of an American general in Mariupol."

After conducting military drills with NATO in the Black Sea last year (The new Queen Elizabeth aircraft carrier participated and even lost an F-35 fighter jet in the Mediterranean sea - Poor Brits!!)

Kiev had staged 60,000 troops in pre-attack positions near Donbas before February 2022 and it's not a surprise that these troops were lead by NATO.

So, the war is NATO vs Russia.

They want to fight Russia to the last Ukrainian!!!

I am really baffled how these rats can use the same tactics to destabilize the world over and over again.

The French OMacron has been contacting Putin for more than a week now, trying to create an evacuation corridor in Mariupol which was suspicious. It actually turns out that there were many French DGSE agents fighting in the city and in less than 2 days, oMacron's popularity is in the toilet 5 days before the presidential election. The surprise here to me is that Gen. Cloutier is of French origin too. Coincidence?

Now, this coincides exactly with what happened in Syria in 2015.

After 4 years of siege of Aleppo occupied by "rebels --- i.e western special forces!!"

Russia entered the war by launching a salvo of cruise missiles from the Caspian Sea into Western Syria near the Turkish border 1,700Km from the Caspian Sea.

If you look at the map, the target was not Aleppo but a border city between Syrian and Turkey. For 2 days, I heard Radio France Internationale (French Pravda) cursing Putin for killing civilians in West Syria in lieu of attacking militants in Aleppo. Guess who was actually at the target site?

French DGSE, Israeli MOSSAD, Turkish, UK MI6, CIA, Qatari, Saudi agents, etc.. in charge of training and supplying the Aleppo "rebels" from Turkey.....

Here you have it again!!!

Hmm! You would think that they might make changes to their MO.... especially after being caught by Russians before!

The Masters of the Universe are in trouble and I am not surprised by what they have been doing. When you realize that they've created an economy based on nothing with derivatives of $1 quadrillion dollars, i.e 10X the world GDP, you understand how scared they are that Putin didn't let them subdue the Middle East in order to control all natural resources. Their plan was to destroy 7 Muslims countries in 5 years. Putin bogged them down in Syria for ever and they never reached Iran that was the last an ultimate target.

Now Putin has been planning for years with China and the BRICKS countries a new financial system backed by gold and commodities instead of FIAT currencies (EUR, $, Pounds) printed out of thin air, and they've decided to get him by all means necessary.

By Attacking Putin in Ukraine, they've now made that plan real - bye bye Euro, Dollar!!!
