Wow.

Just...wow.

Is it weird that this ramping up appears to be happening at a snails pace. Is the pace conditioning people to tacitly accept the inevitability of this escalating into a wider war.

Or, was it inevitable since March of last year that it would lead to larger conflict.

I'm leaning towards the latter as there just never was a question of leaving Ukraine up for grabs to the Russian megalomaniac as it's a given he won't stop there.

We are used to microwave dinners and stories that are all over in two to three hours.

War doesn't work like that.

WWI FOUR YEARS

WW2 SIX YEARS

VIETNAM TEN YEARS

GLOBAL WAR ON TERROR TWENTY+ YEARS


So...who knows?

Vladimir Putin annually takes a dip in freezing water during the Epiphany holiday in Russia. The act is usually video recorded or publicized using photo material, supposedly to showcase the Russian President’s vitality.

No more polar bear club for Mr. Putin.

I see yor point, guess I'm just used to see a problem, calculate the requirements for possible solutions and implement the one most likely to succeed with reasonable inputs.

War is not logical.


It is not the product of logical thought processes.


It is the product of the absence of logic and reason.


And it follows its own course which does not obey the dictates of reason.


If it were rational it would short, ephemeral or non-existent altogether.

All war is the product of misperception.

Putin's war is no exception.

Extended warfare is always irrational.

That is Sun Tzu 101

It is also Freud 101

Translation
Moscow. The mothers of the mobilized, about 50% of the volunteers, complain to Putin that during the two months they were not necessarily secured, the most necessary things were bought at their own expense by close relatives and friends. The women remained silent until the men began to die or disappear. WHOLE FAMILIES HAVE INVESTED IN WAR

It is an investment that never pays dividend for the masses...only the elite.
