Exactly and they want this conflict to lost.
If the war ends now the profiting ends.
The US needs conflicts for its profits...
Ukraine only wants to expel Putin's obvious imperialist land grab

Not one of those links backs up your claim that everyone Ukraine expected to win. ( the third doesn't seem to be the correct link)
Btw I never said everyone expected Ukraine to win, I said most of the MSM was trying to portray an image that Ukraine was winning, at a time when they were actually losing territory. They might actually be winning now, I don't really know because I don't live there and I certainly don't trust anything the MSM says about it.
Haha... how easy it is to change history when it suits you. At the beginning of this conflict there was an endless amount of MSM propaganda saying Ukraine was beating Russia all over the place and they would achieve a quick victory.

Yet you haven't provide a single link to back this up.

From just one of your sources:
"Russia has made many errors. But Ukraine has played an inferior hand well. It is a country that is smaller in size, population, economy, and military forces than its invader. Why has it, so far, been successful at defending itself against the military forces of a nuclear-armed superpower?"
None of them say what you claim they said.
Epic fail.
Next?
I would not agree with you, Russia controls today most of the land it wanted, Most of the Don Bas, South Ukraine Kerson, Crimea.
They got their objective but really at a high price. This was their prime goal to get these lands.
We will see in the coming days what is going to happen, it's too early to say anything.

The war is far from over.
So says the person who has stated on many occasions that Russia had already won.

Yea I agree with you and Biden would be upset if the gas pipeline is opened back in Europe, he hates seeing happy Europeans showering in gas at home heating their homes.
He wants us to buy it from him at 5 times the cost, so Russia has to be this Evil entity for all of this to work.

The ghost stuff was at the begining of war where Ukraine was wining, He went up in the air and all enemy aircrafts fell down, remember the Armpit Ghost ? showing off saying Ukraine is invincible and winning.
Then there was a report I remember that a farmer or something of the sort shot with his hunting riffle a mig from the skies and that Ukraine is winning the war, this was at the begining of the war. I don't remember, he shot the pilot in the mig or something like that. What a comedy.

Admittedly, I was expecting to see many more articles about Ukraine winning when I restricted my time range to the first few months after the war, but I guess they have scrubbed all the verified propaganda they were spreading back then, like the Snake Island story and many others. I'm sure you're going to say something like "that's a convenient excuse", but I'm sure there is still plenty of proof out there if you have time to look for it. But I'm sure it was just all my imagination or the Mandela effect. Yep that must be it.

My history might be a bit hazy but pretty sure showering in gas wasn't a good thing for Europeans.
