It’s not just a war of attrition any more than any other war.
The childish love new labels to play with.

You're obviously not familiar with Russian history, Williams.

Do put a sock in it.

Thanks ganeemead. Brian Berletić is a wealth of info. He set up by discussing all the fallacies the western media has fed us about the state of the war, then finally got to the "buffer zone" idea that the west might try to employ towards the end of the video. Disregard those who comment without listening first.

I'm going to follow my own recommendation here.

My guess is that the Russian intent to demilitarize “ukraine” will extend to the western tip of the place and that they will not tolerate the sort of scheme that Berletic describes.

The irony is that if this actually happens, there would have to be some kind of barrier (WALL) to protect their respective borders!

The primary attrition in process is the continued and increasing withering of the Russian economy.

It is widely reported that Russian farmers can’t get the diesel fuel necessary to harvest the wheat crop.

Mother Russia is wandering around in an old nightie with the hem lace coming off

This is essentially the WWI mentality of trench warfare and throwing bodies into the meat grinder without air support. Tanks are useless in this type of warfare. In Gulf Wars I and Ii, American AirPower knocked out Sadams air forces and air defenses in short order with air power and kill boxes.
