I hope this is part of a bigger plan and not some desperation move.
Anders’ analysis makes sense and he’s usually spot on. https://youtu.be/A4mg1ZUb-7s
Well if the current front lines are pretty entrenched, and it’s hard to take back occupied Ukrainian land, then just go take unprotected Russian land to make it even. Didn’t Putin say he was up for a truce if the current lines were kept? Let’s see how he feels about that when he has to give up Russian land. At the very least it will force Russia to relocate troops and resources.
Yes, that is what Im hoping. But to force troop relocation, you have to dig in which takes time or you have to blitz to Moscow like prigozin, which would really be madness, but it could work.
Don’t need to dig in. Just destroy factories, electrical transformers, oil infrastructure, and train yards.
Fuck Russia.
zero sympathy. finally they get a dose of their own medicine.
My theory is they plan to flank the entire front line by going through Russian territory. Then use the occupied territory as leverage to get reparations from Russia, as well as a peace treaty obviously.
@Ilovethebomb @LaFinlandia that or just plain walk into Moscow and St. Petersburg and tell Vladimir that they’re running the place now. From what I can tell about the Russian economy, he’s not doing a great job and they might go for that. Who knows. I don’t pretend to understand Russian politics.
I’m thinking Ukraine is going to do a hostage swap Kursk Nuclear Power Plant for the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant.
@partial_accumen @Ilovethebomb That’s a possibility. Only I’d make sure to ‘liberate’ some of the equipment first which you know good and well the Ruskies have done to theirs.
I doubt it. If I were in their position I’d just try to disrupt the supply of logistics to the front and do as much damage to the economy as possible. Once the oligarchs start suffering then they just get to sit back and watch the chaos. Doing a large push is needlessly risky. They have the advantage and the initiative, and they should take it, but there’s no way they have the logistics to the rear to seriously push.
Yes, destroy train lines, oil, gas, and petrol stations, loot and burn police stations, fortify highway overpasses so Russia has to bomb their own infrastructure or lose large amounts of men. Burn factories connected to rusdian war effort. All while infiltrating hundreds of saboteurs into the general population to instigate smoking accidents all across the federation.
Good. I hope there is a deep painful fear in their hearts.
Even though it is projection, it is their brutalized army that revels in committing atrocities as it invades. Fucking savages.
