A long drawn out ground war will hopefully tank the Russian economy and create civil unrest.

ZeroHedge has a different take on how this is going:


Escobar: Russia Rewrites The Art Of (Hybrid) War

ZeroHedge - Tyler Durden

quote:

Hybrid War is being fought predominantly in the economic/financial battleground – and the pain dial for the collective West will only go up…

The ironclad fictional “narrative” imposed all across NATOstan is that Ukraine is “winning”.


we can also expect full exposure – on overdrive – of the Pentagon bioweapons racket

Moscow is fully aware that going public with illegal work on banned biological weapons is an existential threat to the US Deep State. Especially when documents seized by the Russians show that Big Pharma – via Pfizer, Moderna, Merck and Gilead – was involved in several “experiments”. Fully exposing the whole maze, from the start, was one of Putin’s stated objectives.

Counteracting financial Shock’n Awe
By now it’s evidently clear that open-ended Operation Z targets unipolar Hegemon power, the infinite expansion of vassalized NATO, and the world’s financial architecture – an intertwined combo that largely transcends the Ukraine battleground.

Serial Western sanctions package hysteria ended up triggering Russia’s so far quite successful counter-financial moves. Hybrid War is being fought predominantly in the economic/financial battleground – and the pain dial for the collective West will only go up: inflation, higher commodity prices, breakdown of supply chains, exploding cost of living, impoverishment of the middle classes, and unfortunately for great swathes of the Global South, outright poverty and starvation.

None of the above should overshadow the still to be measured interconnected repercussions of the mass surrender of Azov neo-Nazis at UkroNazistan Central in Azovstal.

The mythical Western “narrative” about freedom-fighting heroes imposed since February by NATOstan media collapsed with a single blow.

… Russias r a Special Military Operation focused on precision strikes and a deliberate emphasis on sparing civilian lives and infrastructure while methodically disabling the Ukrainian military/logistics spectrum. All of that takes time. Yet Russia may have all the time in the world, as we all keep listening to the sound of the collective West spiraling down.

I saw Japan is ditching their Apaches and Cobras in favor of drones. LINK

I'm sure that has been brought up in the past. But, has the war rendered attack helicopters obsolete? I would assume the time was coming anyways.

I know Chinooks, Blackhawks, etc. will still be valuable for transport, med evac. But, any attack helis near the front seem too vulnerable with advancing drone, missile technology, etc. And I would assume one day all aerial aviation will be drone, AI. Sign of the times I guess.

Ukraine, as you may have heard, is led by a man called Zelenskyy. We can say for a dead certain fact that he was not involved. He couldn't have been; Zelensky is too decent for terrorism. Now you see him on television, and it's true you might form a different impression. Sweaty and rat-like, a comedian turned oligarch, a persecutor of Christians, a friend of BlackRock.” - Tucker Carlson

Russia felt ok attacking Ukraine because Biden is so weak.

Biden has half-arse helped Ukraine, which has prolonged and worsened the conflict.

Ukraine is corrupt and should not join NATO.

The U.S. should tell Zelinski to negotiate land deal with Russia to end the conflict, as the U.S. is about to stop sending them money/weapons.

We need to focus on other things, such as our open southern border and the oil reserves that Biden has depleted through his incompetence.

We need to enforce that NATO allies all committ 2% of their GDP to NATO defense, per the charter. The U.S. needs to stop being sugar daddy.
