"What Ukraine’s Operation Spider Web has done is not to injure Russia’s core ability to attack Ukraine, though it has somewhat degraded that capability. It is to destabilize Russia’s strategic stance on the nuclear stage. It is also to increase the level of paranoia in Moscow, and in Putin’s mind. None of these things are great for world stability and avoidance of nuclear holocaust."
Maybe it will induce a moment of clarity in Putin, who is the one man on this planet who could end this war tomorrow.
It will be taco, and as I have said in the past, Ukraine will, at some point, be added to the Russian orbit. Trump's hands are tied, and despite his boastings prior to the election that he will resolve this war in weeks, he is now awake to the realities of this war. There is no easy out.
I pray you are wrong and Ukraine remains a sovereign nation. And btw, before the election he claimed 24 hours, not weeks. Also he has tried to rewrite history to say this is Biden’s war. He has dementia, imho, and has forgotten the war was happening in his first term and impounding weapons was the reason for his first impeachment. I support Ukraine and the rest of the adjoining nations in their desire to remain free of Putin.

Russia invaded in 2022. That was under Biden. I’d argue though that this is merely a continuation of the Crimea Annexation.
I think a reasonable take with some good insight, Steve.
