"Under Dvornikov’s command, Russian forces in Syria were known for crushing dissent in part by destroying cities, lobbing artillery and dropping what were often crudely made barrel bombs in sustained attacks that have displaced millions of Syrian civilians."

Although I agree with the article, this guy can cause a lot of misery.

I think the western missiles, and better intelligence are going to lead to victory.

The faster we can bring the war to an end, the better.

They should use the Russian reserves that were frozen to rebuild Ukraine. And I think Ukraine should take some forested areas of Russia too, if only temporary to harvest wood to help rebuild.

Russia’s war against Ukraine is an encyclopedia of military error, failure, and gross incompetence. One general cannot fix that, but a large new dose of brutality will further inflame Western opinion against Russia.

This guy is perfect for Russia!!! Old school war and violence. The reality is that this works on a low tech battlefield like Syria and is a time tested tactic.

Now enter the news media, world wide web, instant filming of atrocities and DRONES. Not a few drones, thousands and thousands of DRONES. Watching everything. Recording everything.

The battlefield has changed, his tactics have not. Russia will continue to bleed people and hardware, as well as isolate itself. Putting this guy in charge is a fast pathway to something the Russians will not like.

Floundering? This propaganda completely contradicts the reality on the ground and isn't even believable to anyone following an objective assessment of the war. Russia is kicking Ukraine's ass. Pretending otherwise is only going to result in more dead Ukrainians.

Neocons and globalist Republicans are just as much a threat to this nation as Democrats. They are heart and soul of the Republican establishment that sells out conservatives at every turn.
