I love that this dude quoted a post asking why he deflects to other countries when asked why won't he condemn Russia, and replied by deflecting to other countries so as not to condemn Russia... then when called out on deflecting from Russia to talk about other countries, he replies by deflecting from Russia to talk about other countries.
He does have a way with words.

It would help if you didn't use pronouns without a clear antecedent.

I seems the current Ukrainian tactics is prone with fast, highly Mobil units on enemy lines. This will elicit an artillery response and a UKrainian counter batter response. It also let Ukraine know where the enemy is strong and weak.
Once the weak points are marked, the follow up with a lightning, fast mobile breakthrough and push dead behind lines, bypassing villages with Russian defenders.
Russia doesn’t have enough troops to fully man a static line and are concentrated at villages and fortified positions. Fast units avoid the artillery response due to being in and out before Russia and radio coordinates

Pretty good assessment, I would agree with you.
Ukraine also has MUCH better intelligence gathering and coordination than Russia...Thanks to the US.
I just read a twitter post today discussing the advantage Ukraine has over Russia in this area... I'll see if I can stumble across it again.

The cracks are starting to show around Putin.

I believe Prigozhin is the head of the Wagner Group who was very recently (within the last week) using Telegram to criticize the Russian Military Leadership over their failures.

Interestingly, earlier today in Moscow police detained an employee of Prigozhin's media group Patriot Aleksey Slobodenyuk who runs a network of telegram channels known for attacking Shoigu, Volodin and others. So a hot war among Russia's elite is very much a reality at this point

Do we really want a war between these factions? Just seems like you’d be replacing Putin with folks that even more hardline.

Disagree. This is just personal opinion, but Putin is a once in a century type of leader with a combination of ruthlessness, ideology, ego, to hold on to power as he has. The others are apparatchiks who don't have that (awful) vision.

Wait...are you saying we should be upset that Wagner is in the CAR. I mean ok, but I'm sure if Russia was trying to make the CAR part of Russia by force we would care. Economic pressures and military assistance to promote influence are just the standard tactic de jour.
If Russia was trying to claim Bangui as a Russian city and they all needed to operate in the Russian system and that the CAR wasn't a real country and held fake referendums to make it part of Russia then you could use it as an example but it falls way short of your whataboutism here.

Wow at the level of tech that is now employed on battlefields. Can any former military confirm( or not) that this was also used in the M.E. as well or is this new?
We are basically using this as a tech Expo and it is largely working to perfection.

Russian Federation honors Kadyrov at live ceremony because of the record breaking number of sanction levied against him.
The hobbit is wearing platform boots so that he pushes 4'8.

So here's a strange twist that may tie two of my posts from today together
Post 1) The 500 abandoned Russians
Post 2) The arrest of one of the Wagner bosses friends
https://twitter.com/kromark/status/1577758999319089156
Did the Wagner boss stage the video of the abandoned soldiers and use the video on social media to hurt the Russian Military Leadership?

The video was posted on and being reposted by pro-Wagner channels, which matches Prigozhin's "Fire Shojgu" narrative (https://t.me/rsotmdivision/1596). Also some Wagner patches are visible on it. Nearly all "poor mobiks" on the video wear balaclavas

I suspect the US has utilized consolidated intelligence feeds, AI, comprehensive electronic mapping, etc...for years now.
