@jeffowski If you're genuinely interested in what's really going on, Simplicius runs an excellent blog: https://simplicius76.substack.com/. NBC is not credible for Russian SMO updates.
I'm not doing your homework as it doesn't really matter. Neither you nor I can affect things. When Russia destroys the UA for the 4th time and accepts their unconditional surrender, just remember you heard it here first.
@jeffowski We are clearly reading different reports. I don't see how one could think the Russia is imploding when they're out-manufacturing the entire NATO block in terms of missiles, aircraft, tanks, and drones. Desertion and fragging are at record highs in the Ukrainian Army.
If sanctions actually did anything, Russia would be winding down the SMO, not kicking it into over-drive.
@DMA Tasty, tasty visitors.
@jeffowski If sanctioned worked, we wouldn't need 18 rounds of them. Ukraine is toast. The only unknown is how much territory they will have to cede to Russia when this is all done and dusted.
@RustyCrab "xserver" -- this helps your display manager show you stuff. We know this to be true because it has an 'x' in its name.
