I'm guessing that there are a lot of people in DC and the Pentagon specifically that are in no hurry for this to end.


As the Russians are saying, “the U.S. is committed to resisting Russia until the last Ukrainian.”

Russian state TV hosts discussed the possibility of a war that expands outside of Ukraine on Tuesday, and Margarita Simonyan, journalist and head of RT, told viewers that a nuclear war would be OK because "we're all going to die someday."

In 2014 the American military was still very much in Afghanistan and we were actively aiding the resistance to Russia-backed Assad in Syria. While not the only consideration, I do not think it’s an accident Putin didn’t attempt this while we still had significant presence in Afghanistan.


More than that, the Islamic State was tearing across Syria and Iraq by that spring and summer. While we were opposed to Assad, the Russians knew that they were going to play a weird dance with us - and needed our implicit cooperation - as we were getting re-engaged in Iraq and we both tried to ground ISIS into dust. Do people not remember it dominating the news cycle almost every single day for months and months? More than anything, the events in Iraq and Syria that year kept a leash on Putin at the time.

Putin is playing 5D chess while every one of you clowns are playing checkers. He is following orders to sacrifice Ukraine, himself and old Russia to remake new Russia as the new NWatO country on China's border. Now Simp away and begin your downvoting.

you know what else the Russian military boys are saying? “We pretend to fight and they pretend to pay us.” And right on cue a military unit surrendered to the Ukies…

They put in a lot of effort to get Zelinsky. Four squads of elite soldiers including Chechnians we’re dispatched within the first few weeks. FSB GRU higher ups tipped their hand and all four squads were “liquidated” some within 30 mins of setting foot on Ukrainian soil others within a KM of the headquarters of the president. This information was given to a friendly third country who informed in great detail the plots. Some of the folks who oversaw the info leak have been jailed or had heart attacks.

Russian spy boss reveals Polish plans for Ukraine split

quote:

Intelligence obtained by Russia suggests that Poland and the US are working on a plan for Warsaw to regain control of Ukrainian areas that Warsaw considers as “historically belonging” to it, Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) chief Sergey Naryshkin has said. According to the alleged plan, the first stage of this “reunification” will see Polish “peacekeepers” deployed in western Ukraine under the pretext of “protection from Russian aggression,” Naryshkin revealed in a statement on Thursday. The details of the operation are now being discussed between Warsaw and the Biden administration, he claimed, adding that it’s going to be carried out without a NATO mandate, with only volunteer countries taking part.


Russia is desperate to drive a wedge between NATO states.

The Deep State/NWO promised him his ashes would be mixed with Yeltsin’s once he’s gone, so he’s willing to do anything they say notwithstanding having looted Russia for decades. They found the one thing that still mattered to him enough to learn 5D chess.
I've lost the ability to tell when politards are trolling or legitimately retarded.

At this point, Russia has much to loose by expanding the war, but Putin has nothing to loose. As long as Putin is in charge without a hint of victory, the possibility of a wider war with NBC elements increases. Anything that looks like defeat will be the provocation he needs to escalate.

A lot of people can't even remember what happened two weeks ago.

Well... unless they are witnesses in a Law and Order show. Then they remember the exact day, time, outfit, drink, and conversation they had w/a person who came into their bar on a busy Friday night 6 months ago.

It does appear that Putin has some sort of pathological need to be seen as a successful military conqueror. Hopefully someone on the inside will end Putin's personal involvement in Russian government.
