Hitting the Crimea bridge was a strategic mistake by the Ukrainians. It looked good on T.V but that doesn't win a war. Russia has seized upon it to go after Ukrainian infrastructure that, for what ever reason, it had left alone.

Yup.
Zelensky thinks he's still doing comedy on TV.

Russia is a terrorist extortion state, and her leaders are evil through and through. Take out her nuclear forces, before she builds them up much further.

“...the Crimea bridge was a strategic mistake by the Ukrainians. It looked good on T.V but that doesn’t win a war. Russia has seized upon it to go after Ukrainian infrastructure that, for what ever (sic) reason, it had left alone...”

Your statement is contradictory. The bridge is infrastructure. Now the Russians make yet another strike on Ukrainian infrastructure with the implication that infrastructure attacks are indeed the way to win a war.

Strategy is one thing and tactics are another and according to Patton, “There is only one tactical principle which is not subject to change. It is to use the means at hand to inflict the maximum amount of wounds, death, and destruction on the enemy in the minimum amount of time.”

The Ukrainians have had the upper hand lately at the tactical level.

"S-300 is an anti-aircraft weapon..."

It's no good as an antiaircraft weapon, so the Russians fire it in the general direction of civilians on the ground. They've done the same with S-300s many times.

You’ve deeply misjudged the will and spirit of The Ukrainian.

Just watch what comes next. Over the next few hours.

🇺🇸 Kerch Bridge was always considered a true strategic military target, as it was ultimately constructed to shorten by an average of 1+ days, the direct transport of weapons, military equipment, and fissile material to and from Sevastopol/Black Sea Fleet, from Russia’s Southern Military District.

As such, the shipping time to and from the Eastern Mediterranean, Syria, Libya, Egypt, Red Sea, Eritria, and Russian and Iranian backed Houthi rebels attacking Saudi and UAE energy lines to Southern Europe was also shortened significantly.

The bridge system was NOT an apartment building, house, school, hospital, farm, etc, etc... 🇺🇸🇮🇱🇺🇦🇷🇺🎚

It’s what terrorists do.

To paraphrase Zelensky, it looks partially sunny in Moscow, and cloudy in a dozen Ukrainian cities.
Zelensky is goading Putin to increase attacks.
One is a tyrant and the other is a clown.
This issue needs adults.

Russia has the capacity to destroy far more of Ukraine’s infrastructure than vice versa. It has a massive industrial/military complex that Ukraine does not have and that no arms imports will compensate for. Russia is the second largest arms exporter in the world. Attacking the Crimean bridge was for PR. So they damage 1 supply bridge for a bit. Now Russia has seized upon this. It has galvanised the Russian public more solidly behind Putin, because whether you like it or not,they view Crimea as part of Mother Russia.

Dresden and Hiroshima were cities. Its total war. Its terror alright. But terrorism is more typically confined to define acts committed by ad hoc groups that are typically not a nations legit army. Like Hezbollah. Or Red Brigades etc
