No more time to waste between now and Jan 20th. This will go from a war of attrition to an outright slaughter here shortly. Good. Maybe then we’ll see an end to it.
The little I have read here reminds me of Grant’s grinding war against Lee and, especially, the Battle of Petersburg. Grant just kept flanking Lee in small maneuvers that gradually stretched Lee’s army to the breaking point. Looks like the Russians are using the same kind of tactics against the Ukrainians. Since there are only 30 million Ukrainians versus about 150,000,000 Russians, the outcome is inevitable, as it was at Petersburg.
