Russia has enough resources to fight in Ukraine for two years - Lithuanian intelligence

"Put down the shovels lads, we're off to Kiev!"

From the description, Russia has stopped playing around with the power grid. Now they are hitting the irreplaceable parts, the turbines. Substations and auto switches can be replaced fairly quickly if you have spares, turbines cannot.

With the timing of this attack and the rail delays caused, wonder if there were or are any Leopard tanks sitting exposed in rail yards.

Sounds like you've angered the war vampires.

One of those was smearing anti-war freepers on another thread.

Imagine being so ignorant as to disrespect a countryman over a foreigners flag. The absolute state of the USA is beyond laughable.

Those are excellent points. I think you’re right about this being potentially preemptive

Russia has been hitting Ukraine with missiles (most of which get shot down anyway) since last fall

and there’s been zero effect on Ukraine’s fighting ability

so the war continues, with no end in sight ...

Sounds like you've angered the war vampires.

The worse things go badly for NATO, the angrier they get. I expect the Daily Mail to run a few "Putin has cancer" stories today.

What you could do to educate us is to write down a list of all the forever wars the US is engaged in, actual or impending. And then inform us about where we are going to get the resources to fight all of those wars.

And in each of those write down what are teh US vital interests and what are the opposing sides vital interests

And when you discover we are overextended, tell us which wars you are going to decline to fight.

And when you write down that our vital interest is fighting for global democracy, you need to tell us how that war is going so far.

It's over as far as the Ukrainian military. NATO is in the mix now and they could use a Canadian or two. So when are you going?
