Eisenhower came home a victorious and successful 5 star general, got elected twice as a Republican President and promptly set into play a national road building extravaganza, having witnessed first hand (and overcoming) difficult and seemingly impossible European terrain, moving men, equipment and supplies.


NO ONE ON THE PLANET can (apparently) read, because if they did, they could have emulated Patton and his "magnificent bastard" remark because PATTON READ ROMMEL'S BOOK !

And, strangely enough, Rommels book was about light infantry tactics, not tanks. Based on Rommels experience in WWI. Rommel was not a tank guy at all, until very late.

“Infantry Attacks”, Erwin Rommel. Available on Amazon, $2.99 on Kindle.

It’s true that Putin has been taking a pounding for being too soft, and now his commanders have been off, in the Far East overseeing international exercises, they left only “internal security guards” over villages in difficult terrain.

These guards are not battle hardened and no Russian Army forces were on site. It should have been anticipated, as rumors have suggested Elinsky was under pressure to perform by September.

Reminders of Palmyra are circulating. In Syria, Russia became bogged down in Aleppo. ISIS moved in and took a key site, Palmyra.

Much more is at stake in UKR.
And, certainly a psychological win for UKR and NATO handlers & globalist financiers.

Russia may pull out of that cumbersome area, who knows?
Otoh, Putin may decide to bring Hell fire and damnation, and incinerate the joint in question.

Interesting situation.

Good analysis. Puts all the fragments I get off Twitter into perspective.

I think it is a pretty bizarre analysis, weird.

“Putin may decide to bring Hell fire and damnation, and incinerate the joint in question.”

Wouldn’t surprise anyone if PUTIN attempts a last act of EVIL.

That sound like America under Biden.

“If there is one thing that the past few years have proved beyond reasonable doubt, it’s that the world can change almost beyond recognition in a matter of days (see COVID19).

If there is one thing the past few weeks have proved beyond reasonable doubt, it’s that one man’s ill-fated decision can turn the lives of millions into an absolute horror, literally overnight, and no existing systemic checks and balances, precautions and alliances can stop it before it’s too late.

Worse still, in most cases, the very people who ultimately push the ‘unleash hell’ button are often left to build themselves glaringly authoritarian immune systems for decades, worthy of the most notorious magalomaniacs in history, before things spin out of control.

And spin out of control they always do.”
-Lukash Cioch

I agree. I find the Durand is too strange
