OTOH, let's take a look at how your mainstream sources fared:
- Ukraine has withstood and repelled the mighty Russian military through Western support, Russian blundering, and its own resourcefulness. -Council on Foreign Relations
- Ukraine can win this war against Russia. Ukrainian forces may be able to drive Russian troops back from Ukraine's cities toward the Russian borders. They may be able to establish ground and air defenses strong enough to preclude renewed Russian attacks for a long time. They may be able to show the Russian military, if not Russian President Vladimir Putin, that Russia's military conquest of Ukraine is off the table. There can be no better outcome of this war for the U.S., NATO and free peoples everywhere. -The Hill
- "So it [Russia] has already lost a lot of military capability," [Lloyd] Austin said. "And a lot of its troops, quite frankly. And we want to see them not have the capability to very quickly reproduce that capability." Biden administration officials are optimistic that that is an achievable goal, sources told CNN. Administration officials and congressional sources said they believe that the continued military support to Ukraine could result in significant blows to Russia that will impair their long-term military capabilities, strategically benefiting the US. -CNN
etc., etc., etc.
Ah! Wouldn't you love to return to those halcyon days, when the US (oops! I mean Ukraine!) had Russia on the ropes - at least according to our dumb-ass MSM. I'm sure you'd love to return to those days, Reg. Or perhaps, with your steady diet of MSM reporting, you think those days are still with us - LOL!
In any case, let's now check how Israel is doing against Caitlin's checklist:
Israel will be at peace once it defeats Hamas - Too bad! Not accomplished, despite Israel's continuing genocide in Gaza.
first it'll need to conquer Syria - Yes, you could say it has "conquered" part of the country.
eliminate Hezbollah and Ansarallah - So you mean to claim that Israel has eliminated Hezbollah and the Houthis? Unbelievable - you need to hold off on your victory laps. In fact, the Houthis just chased the US away from Yemen - and you could confirm that yourself, even in your crazy wrong mainstream propaganda sources!
achieve regime change in Iran - That's going to be hard to do with Israeli infrastructure destroyed to the extent it is. Ever wonder why Netanyahu doesn't want anybody to see it? So Trump thinks he bought Israel some time to recover. We'll see.
Eventually, you'll realize who is really batshit crazy - but, in the meantime, you can get a clue by just looking in the mirror.
