    Russkies are not flying much either. It is like both sides are afraid to go up and engage.

    There was a lot of activity in first few days but now not much at all

    The Russians aren't flying much because there are thousands of Stinger missiles being held by Ukrainians with itchy trigger fingers just waiting for something to shoot down. Because they don't have air superiority, and can't achieve it unless they're able to suppress air defenses.

    I wonder how cheap Russian tanks will be on the black market? I sure wouldn't mind having one!
    I dunno about the black market, but...

    The latest - don't know if I trust the Daily Mail, but apparently this general's death was confirmed by colleagues on Twitter. Because OpSec is not a Russian term, I suppose.

    I think Ukrain will end up making this the hardest invasion, more than Russia ever contemplated. Russia is paying heavily for what I would imagine they thought was a cake walk.

    Yeah. Look what's happening in Kharkiv. It's mostly a Russian exclave so the Russian invaders thought it would be a cake walk, that they'd be welcomed with open arms. They met stiff resistance so they bypassed it, encircled it, and are basically just levelling it.

    Of course, I can't say that for certain. All reporting is untrustworthy but it seems like that's what's happening.

    What really amazes me is that our intelligence agencies won't make public what is going on there. Absolutely NO reports from our military intel and I know we have it. Lots of CNN stuff. We have nobody fighting there so why not?

    Lots of reasons why the IC doesn’t publicly disclose most intelligence products. The raw product isn’t what’s of value, it the analysis and final product.

    Well, surprise surprise.

    Biden wants Congress to give him 10 billion dollars to send to Ukraine for "humanitarian assistance and additional defense equipment", with a deadline of March 11th. Wonder how Hunter is going to launder a chunk of this...

    He has already sent 1.4 billion dollars to Ukraine since taking office. The billions sent during Obama's presidency was a cash cow for the Biden Crime Family, John Kerry, Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, and Mitt Romney. Chaos and confusion in a corrupt country is a perfect environment for the perfect crime

    A former AF 3 star, who seems pretty wired in and has nailed it so far.
    Then again take it with a grain of that first casualty of war, truth.

    Putin is closing on a full takeover. He is taking his time and assessing all situations.

    Please tell me that isn’t Dave Deptula’s thoughts.
