Maybe I am delusional, and I most certainly can be and could be wrong now, too, but to all things a season and I know we puny humans don’t make the rules. We just have to learn how to follow them or at least not break them too often.

But I think Putin did break the rules by invading Ukraine and so, for him, it will be like with Saddam Hussein’s or Hitler’s initially successful wars against their neighbors.

There came a point when Fate’s tide inevitably turned against them and their armies were sent back home, basically returned to sender with postage due, right?

I get a sense that is Putin’s reality now, too.

His strength got him this far, but it’s not enough to swim against the tide that’s now turning against him and will eventually and inevitably take him where he doesn’t want to go.

“His strength got him this far, but it’s not enough to swim against the tide that’s now turning against him and will eventually and inevitably take him where he doesn’t want to go.”

What army is going to do that? I’d guess you’re a proud nationalist, but the harsh reality is Ukraine doesn’t have the strength to drive the Russians out.
