Russia might be going tits up tonight

And just like that Wagner leader has not been seen in a week. Is he already decapitated yet? Upon arriving in Bielorussia he was seen booking a windowless room...

Surprising, isn't it?
Somehow I think more is going to happen but not sure what or when.

Not sure we will see Prigozhin alive again. Putin demands absolute loyalty or you pay with your life. Even if you’re a beauty…

Likely because he knows enough about some things that he has false confidence in his intelligence. But knowing that you don't know what you don't know takes a much higher level of intelligence than he demonstrates.

Again, I sincerely appreciate you sharing your obvious knowledge and really hope you write more.

Jesus Christ.

I sincerely hope you are here to find women to suck your dick. Not pine for a guy named DinkleMouse and suck his.

Ukraine’s counteroffensive remains a debacle despite efforts to exploit coup attempt in Russia
...

I love that the Putin fans were all over Putin's dick when Wagner was gaining 50 m a day around Bakmut but claim the Ukrainian offensive doing similar things on a much wider front is a disaster.

And I love how they have to try and pretend the Wagner coup was really a Ukrainian plot.

If being a Putin fan means cheering his war of invasion
then the author of the article is more likely to be someone
who would call Putin's pal Yevgeny Prigozhin a war criminal.

A large fraction of the world do not support Putin and yet
are critical of the war. Some analysts I follow like Sean Foo
would likely contradict folks here who believe it is just a matter
of time before Russia going tits up. And yet I've never heard
him saying anything pro-Putin.

Russia’s War Economy Isn’t Breaking - Here’s The Inconvenient Truth

Military operations always have names. In WWII the invasion of Normandy was "Operation Overlord". "Operation Primrose" was the capture of enigma. The German invasion of the USSR was "Operation Barbarossa". Because there were operations that doesn't mean the parties involved pretended they weren't at war.

The Iraq War had several. "Operation Bastille" and "Operation Falconer" were used for the pre-emptive movement of military assets in preparation of possible operations. "Operation Iraqi Freedom" was the American invasion. "Operation Iron Bullet" was the movement of large ordinance discovered in Baghdad to unpopulated rural areas for disposal. Despite having operations, no one was at doubt that it was a war and no one hesitated to call it a war. Barely a month into the start of the War, Bush was interviewed by Tom Brokaw during which Brokaw referred to it as a war multiple times.

Once again you're just inventing stuff and showing how out of your depth you are. Why you continue to offer opinions from ignorance, when you know and admit they're from ignorance, is beyond me.

You are right about there being different operations, but its nitpicky. Iraqi Freedom is what the general public and everyone else colloquially identifies the entire war as.

I mean, most people I know can it the Iraq War. But my point is that no one denies it was a war. It had operations names, but it was still referred to as a war, pretty much from the moment the first Tomahawk let the tube. Whereas we've got Putin denying it's a war and claiming is a discuss military operation.

That's the crux of this chain in the conversation, if you recall. People laughed at Putin's denial and propaganda, and the Putin apologists tried to say it was the same as Iraq. But it's not at all and having operations with names does not prove it was.
