We are running this war and special operators are plinking the Russian brass. Why?
$$$
I worked that battle staff when I was assigned to USEUCOM. They stand up a cell to work issues pertaining to conflicts within the AOR.
Because globohomo WEF and DC believe they can destabilize Russia, install a puppet without Russia resisting, seeing it as an existential threat and nuking us. We have gotten used to chasing goat humpers around and are sure the Russians will be defeated that way. Guess we’ll see.
There may some instance of them backing down, but in the last 900 years that has not been the norm for then. And since the 50s, it’s been an article of faith there that if facing destruction at the hands of an enemy, that enemy will get it’s homeland nuked.
For us nuclear war is so unthinkable that we dismiss it. They think of us as the 4th Reich, pressing into Ukraine, sinking warships, blowing up tank farms inside Russia, using our cute techniques to assassinate their generals. I hope we don’t find out one morning that they do not share our feelings about nuking an enemy.
Time will tell.
The fact that “Air Force Magazine” has a feature story about this fine target shows how cavalier our side is being about this.
Can anyone imagine Ike having a story featuring a critical command hub where the staff and politicians are meeting?
This is the where soldiers in high heels, and Navy officer girls ramming container ships gets you.
I think we might, especially if Kinzinger is the errand boy floating that AUMF--what better than to have a "Republican" not facing re-election, posting up a fig leaf to send in US troops? "Its bipartisan, dontcha know...."
You ever see that newspaper photo of the accident in Kuwait?
It has a truck and a goat is tied to the tailgate. behind the goat there is a box. Behind that there’s a dead Arab splayed out. The guy got kicked by the goat just right and it killed him. Funniest thing I ever saw. There’s cops walking around nonchalantly investigating the scene. XD XD XD
We find nuclear war unimaginable.
The Russians built their civil defense shelters because they found it definitely imaginable, and did extensive work to survive it.
Do you know where a civil defense shelter is? When was the last time you saw that sign?
This simulation is worrisome, because it puts right before your nose how quick the world changes. And even worse, if you’re not paying attention, you’ll miss it.
I encourage all Freepers to watch this:

Lucky for us we’re a wealthy country with money to burn, brilliant leaders and no problems with our own borders, economy, or food issues. So by all means, whatever anyone needs WE should provide.
With less than 5 Ukrainians in this "Control Center", you damn well know we are running the war. Biden's people bragged about how we give detailed intel and coordinates to the Ukrainians to hit.
We are doing everything except pulling the trigger...but expect Russia to just take it.
Watched it. Interesting, but two minor quibbles. It’s hard to imagine a 12 missile nuclear attack, and an attack that does not target Colorado Springs, Cheyenne, our missile fields, etc...
Some of our snipers probably are pulling triggers. A lot to risk for a kleptocracy in which we have no strategic interest (we bring the US people, not the DS Mandarins who feed at this trough).
They happy to fight until the last US taxpayer dollar is spent or the last Ukrainian is dead. please just stay out of other countries civil wars.
Those who believe Ukraine is filled with these amazing warriors that can defeat the Russians are fooling themselves. It is the very heavy hand of the US defeating Russia....and they are only going to take it for so long before hitting back.
I think that is what the cruise missile strikes on the train station in Kyiv was all about right after US and UN officials left. I predict we will see a strike against NATO supply lines shortly.
“I worked that battle staff when I was assigned to USEUCOM. They stand up a cell to work issues pertaining to conflicts within the AOR.”
Small world, I was on J6 staff.
“We are running this war and special operators are plinking the Russian brass. Why?”
1. Because we don’t care to see Putin reassemble the USSR.
2. (See #1)
We've been stupidly telegraphing our operations since after the Gulf War.
It's not a sign of effeminacy, but of arrogance: we really don't think the other side can do anything about it.
We’re not running the war. This is only coordinating deliveries of weapons.
Not a civil war. It’s like calling a US invasion of Canada a “civil war.”
