RUSSIA-UKRAINE WARNING UPDATE: NEW INDICATORS OF IMMINENT RUSSIAN ATTACK (Tomorrow! oh noes!)
Institute for the Study of War ^ | 2-18-22 | By Fredrick W. Kagan and Mason Clark

Russia may launch an attack on Ukraine on Saturday, February 19, 2022. The attack would likely begin with an air and missile campaign targeting much of Ukraine to decapitate the government and degrade the Ukrainian military as well as the ability of Ukrainian citizens to prepare to resist a subsequent Russian invasion. US and allied governments have been warning of such an attack for some days, pointing to the size of the Russian forces concentrated on Ukraine’s borders.[1] Western officials have additionally said that Russian troops have moved to jumping-off positions for an invasion over the past 24 hours. The following additional conditions and indicators point to February 19 as an optimal date for a Russian attack:

1. Ukrainian President Volodymir Zelensky will be in Germany at the Munich Security Conference. He is scheduled to speak at 1530 Munich time.[2]

His absence from Ukraine will degrade his ability to coordinate a response to any Russian attack and create more propitious circumstances for a Russian-sponsored attempt at a coup d’etat. Russian forces could close Ukrainian airspace to prevent Zelensky from returning to Kyiv.

There has to be consequences for Spending all the money.

If Elections have consequences, so does Pork and giveaways.

You spent Trillions and now there’s a Deep State Crisis to suck in more dollars. It’s a Scam.
