KK thanks this is a brilliant analysis. I'm 81. I've been around a while. It's very rare in my long life time to see and hear this level of erudite and articulate expose of where it's at. Well done and thanks. Please persist as best you can. It is desperately needed. In every present and future generational sense one might imagine. This is the "Brink"

At this point, there is no ‘good’ deal for Ukraine to be had. That ship has sailed.

The question now is how many more lives will be lost before Ukraine cedes a significant chunk of eastern territory to Russia.

I have zero expertise in this area, but it seems the war in Ukraine has devolved into a combination of WWI trench warfare with static lines and relentless slaughter alongside a ‘live fire’ demonstration of every imaginable unmanned weapon system military contractors can dream up.

It’s the dress rehearsal for the WWIII everyone says they don’t want. Unfortunately, there’s a ‘but maybe’ crowd that remains unconvinced. So the show grinds on.
