I’m amazed at the Russian restraint. I assumed two weeks ago that precisely these terror attacks on Moscow would push Putin to bring his reserves in and to end this war.

I guess Putin is going to take this until election fortnight is over.

Russia under attack ...

Well, we know Russia won’t complain, since this is how Russia treats other countries

Russia thinks this is OK, it does this to Ukraine all the time

Restraint? Putin is doing all that he can. Putin is frustrated, not restrained.

So apparently the Ruskies are pretty good at detecting and taking out UAV’s.

This is telling me that the technologies involved in drone warfare defense is getting pretty good. This is also telling me that sending those drones is a waste of Ukrainian resources while at the same time really pissing off the Russians.

It’s like a little boy punching the big bully in the stomach. That little punch hurt nothing. But that little boy knows full well he will get clobbered big time by the bully.

“Putin to bring his reserves in and to end this war.”

There is no reserves.

“I guess Putin is going to take this until election fortnight is over.”

I thought you said October 1st?

The New World Order USA is attacking Russia, simply because they don't control the country there.

Without the involvement, and the TRILLIONS of taxpayer dollars committed to it, Zalensky would be found in the woods somewhere, without puppet masters using him.

“I’m amazed at the Russian restraint.”

Wow, the “restraint” when the Muscowites were bombing civilian areas?

None of that matters, Vlad is not giving up his ethnic Russian provinces, ever…..
and the entire collective West can not boot him out ( as we are witnessing).

Yup, I'm shocked Putin hasn't invaded Ukraine, bombing indiscriminately, killing tens of thousands, seizing land, etc

It’s not restraint, it’s a calculation of how much civilian death Russia will tolerate before it reacts in kind vs. the cost of escalated western involvement.

My fear is that Ukes will change that calculation to where Ruskies think it worthwhile to give something nasty to one of our enemies who have no problem crossing our southern border.
