WaPost ^ | 18-OCT-2022 | Max Boot

Posted on 10/19/2022 5:38:45 AM PDT by SpeedyInTexas

Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine will be studied for centuries by military historians — as a master class in how not to fight. His latest tactic — bombing Ukrainian cities — is yet another desperate and despicable gambit that is likely to backfire.

What it's really about: Follow the money, from "Afghanistan" to "The Ukraine."

[The billions of taxpayer dollars actually stay in the pockets of the bosses of the MIC, a fraction of which is relaundered back to their political backers as campaign contributions to keep the scam rolling from war to war.]

In a way, Putin is a victim of his own self-created system

that is, he created a police-state dictatorship where, since people who offend Putin get killed, nobody wants to tell him anything negative ... so he never gets a realistic assessment of the situation

bad info then leads to bad decisions

but as long as Russia keeps losing, who are we to complain

exactly, anyone who would listen to or take advice from Max Boot about military matters is insane, the man literally advocates for endless wars against anyone and everyone.

Boot is one of the most nasty and hated scum against conservatives ever. This article makes me sick because people here agree with Boot and the WaPoo. WTH?

Post away.

I am a Conservative before I’m a Republican.

I will look at the candidates and issues in 2023, 2024 and every year.

“Turns out Putin, like Biden, is not quite as brilliant as he fancies himself. The difference is... this will likely eventually result in Putin’s demise.”

Yeah, I can see that happening. I can also see Biden resigning or getting the 25th Amendment treatment.

I guess our officers can study Vietnam, Serbia, Iraq, and Afghanistan for master lessons on success.
