First there appears a crack.
Then the entire wall suddenly crumbles.
While the dug in Ukrainian defense has been a surprise to everyone, there was never any doubt as to the final outcome.
Once the battle of Donbas is complete, Odessa will be next.
Exactly. Momentum is being established and with that a collapse of moral.
Once Donbas falls, Mr. Z. will make peace rather that risk losing Odessa and his window on the Black Sea. Once the peace talks start we will begin to learn the Truth and so will the people of Ukraine and Russia. Donbas will join the Russian Federation and the troops will come home to a big party. In time—not Long Really—Putin will be dead and buried next to the Kremlin Wall or some other honored place—the new lands his gift to Russia—his lasting Legacy.
