Considering your views are shaped by what you read in rags like the Daily Express (which is extremely bolshie on this war), thank you for so gratuitously denigrating your own sources and resultant opinions.

It does look like Vlad can afford to stick this one out.

Clueless as usual.

Derp.

AMERICANS are "OK with letting Ukraine lose" the war to Russia, a shocking poll for Express.co.uk has revealed.

War likely to be over by end of year - Ukrainian general

The head of Ukraine's military intelligence has said the war with Russia will reach a turning-point in mid-August and is likely to be over by the end of the year.
In an interview with Sky News, Major General Kyrylo Budanov said that "the breaking point will be in the second part of August" and "most of the active combat actions will have finished by the end of this year."

"As a result, we will renew Ukrainian power in all our territories that we have lost including Donbas and the Crimea."
He added that Russia losing the war will lead to a coup against Russian President Vladimir Putin, which he claimed was already underway. The BBC has not verified this claim.

He also claimed that President Putin was in a "very bad psychological and physical condition and he is very sick." Such a claim has not been substantiated.

Good on them for it, but this war is going to drag on. It is a war of attrition now, and that is a war that favors Ukraine.

I think that's a little optimistic. A negotiated peace settlement is overdue.

If it's a peace settlement, yes. If it's a surrender of territory to a madman, it would be foolish.

How long is the war going to last?

Eighty days since Russia launched its invasion of Ukraine, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov says it is hard to predict how long the war will last.

On this point, at least, he appears to be in rare agreement with Ukraine's president who said in a speech yesterday: "No-one today can predict how long this war will last. But we are doing everything we can to liberate our land quickly. This is our priority to work every day to make the war shorter."

Not long after Volodymyr Zelensky's remarks, however, Ukraine's head of military intelligence, said that the war could be over by the end of the year.



The destruction of parts of Ukraine is almost total

He is just the type of clown that someone like skiddy would dig up. Pushes total BS propaganda...

The anonymous blogger known for his prolific anti-Western conspiracy theories and unfounded accusations against the pro-democracy movements in Thailand is no longer anonymous. If his account is to be believed, the pseudonym “Tony Cartalucci” belongs to American citizen by the name of Brian Joseph Thomas Berletic.
Writing in a recent blog post on the Land Destroyer Report, Berletic said he is behind Tony Cartalucci and several other identities. The self-described “independent geopolitical analyst” said he had to conceal his identity to protect his family from attacks arising from his critical works against his homeland.
“My name is Brian Joseph Thomas Berletic. I am a 38-year-old American industrial designer living in Bangkok,” he wrote.

Coming from "the well vetted guy in millitary history", who declared Patton's slapping of two soldiers "a major event" in WW2 and that "Hitler only fought conventionel wars".

War planning by the book really

It was an interesting take on strategy but fails when it comes to troop motivation.

Russia needs to take territory, Ukraine only needs to kill occupying troops. That's the bottom line. This means that any retreat by Russian troops is motivation for Ukrainian forces and demoralising for Russian troops. It doesn't matter where that retreat is and it doesn't matter if it is a tactical or strategic retreat.
