This is closer to what I expected earlier. Why waste manpower and munitions when you can bring then to their knees by cutting off the comforts that keep them competitive. This also cuts off their export capacity of their being able to produce ferrous metals like cast iron, rolled steel and steel pipe. It also will hammer their agricultural capacity which accounts for 41% of their overall exportation.

Russia never wanted to destroy the Ukraine. They’re worth too much. So if they can quietly force them into submission through cutting off creature comforts like heat, food, and worth, they come out well ahead as they just take it over. They should have started this way and kept everyone else out of it but Putin’s too egotistical.

Russia targets substations because they pity Ukrainians and they are easy and cheap to fix. Hide them, and they will target generation, which is near impossible to fix. Military objectives before mercy, you know.

This is crazy. Sending Ukraine $$$ so they can harden their power grid while we ignore our obvious Achilles heel - we can’t replace the huge transformers in a month - they are ordered from China years in advance. They are custom-built. There are NO spare ‘lying’ around.

But Ukraine gets our $$$ to ‘harden’ their power grid.
