LOL! I’m thinking what you are. All of these reports, many are from apparently authoritative sources, seem to be wildly conflicting. Right now the only thing I need to think about the war is its a hideous monstrosity that needs to be ended as soon as possible.
“All of these reports, many are from apparently authoritative sources, seem to be wildly conflicting.”
Larry Johnson had an observation from his days in the CIA: Deep State leaks happen when there are internal divisions in the Deep State. If everyone is on the same page - no leaks.
There are elements in the Regime who are leaking out the reality. There are still elements in the Regime that cling to the fantasy of victory - same as the Ukrazies on this board.
