Think he's given Russia more chances than deserved. Russia has no interest in peace, only extermination.
I wonder about this. The generals may well be the most talented at climbing the chain of command but not necessarily tactically or organizationally. Russia could very well stumble into better leadership.
Well, the truth *coming from Ukraine* would be a welcome change from the Ghost of Kyiv, Snake Island, Russians trying to melt down Chernobyl, targeting pregnant women and babies, inexplicably slaughtering its own sympathizers and collaborators in Bucha, somehow and for some reason firing a Ukrainian missile on ethnic-Russians and on and on ...
As I speculated in another thread about Space Force, it’s no coincidence in my opinion that Ukraine is getting so lucky in its targeting of Russian C2 nodes. They are getting very good, timely, and targetable signal intelligence from somewhere.
Yeah, I understand. The arguments of the Third Reich (actual Nazis to spare you having to look it up on Wikipedia) supporting its brutal conquest and rape of Poland were also centered around how corrupt the Warsaw government was, the deplorable treatment of ethnic Germans in the Corridor, a Polish “attack” on a German radio station, blah, blah, blah. Come to think of it, their arguments were slightly more plausible than yours, even though I know factually how full of shit the German propaganda machine was.
That author had an “interesting” article on John McCain. Dugger has some interesting sources of information.
Apples and apple carts, in terms of how collection happens and who analyzes it. I have no doubt to your point that NSA has involvement in what’s going on in Ukraine, but I think they are more involved in the operational/strategic-level intelligence analysis, not the perishable and immediately actionable information. But I will probably never know because I don’t need to.
The Ukrainians Keep Blowing Up Russian Command Posts And Killing Generals The latest strike could be the most dramatic. Ukrainian forces on Friday reportedly destroyed the command post of the Russian 49th Combined Arms Army near Russian-occupied Kherson in southern Ukraine. According to the Ukrainian intelligence service, the attack killed two Russian generals and wounded a third. These strikes alone won’t end the war. There’s no shortage of deputy commanders to take the place of the commanders who’ve died—and replacement leaders actually tend to be more aggressive and crueler than the established leaders they replace. But blowing up a command post can confuse the subordinate units, temporarily leaving them vulnerable to a swift attack. As Ukraine continues mobilizing its reserves and re-equipping with Western-supplied weapons, Ukrainian counterattacks could become more frequent—and more decisive in rolling back Russian territorial gains in eastern and southern Ukraine. Smashing a bunch of Russian HQs can only help those efforts.
