    They're playing the game well, not telegraphing attacks, sticking to limited offensive actions to probe defenses, while striking the enemy's rear with Storm Shadows and HIMARS and letting the Russian (and Polish?) volunteers wreak havoc inside Russian territory.

    This is the counteroffensive, and it is far from the kind of D-day frontal assault that many may have naïvely expected.

    'NATO has no choice' but to end Putin's war | Yuri Felshtinsky


    "NATO has no choice but to defend Ukraine...if they want to limit this war within the borders of Ukraine."

    NATO must end Putin's war in Ukraine or face nuclear war in Europe, says Yuri Felshtinsky, author of Blowing up Ukraine, the Return of Russian Terror.​

    I recall saying we should have prevented it in the first place by simply putting NATO forces in Ukraine when it was obvious that an invasion was being prepared. So much death and destruction would have been prevented, as well as a situation in which NATO must step in anyway to stop this after all of that death and destruction. Once again the west appeased a militaristic dictator, and once again the death toll due to that appeasement has been an industrial scale travesty.

    Yea, polish. Volunteers, but still. That's been published by said Polish group, so not even a Russian source to doubt it.

    Depending what happens with this counteroffensive.....if goes well....RuZZkis pushed way back, land route cut off.....it wouldn't surprise me to see a NATO no fly zone.....I called Kherson offensive back last year...Kherson liberated.....

    I'll say...NATO no fly.....Crimea land route cut....Belgorod besieged......just saying.;)

    This is part of the theater shaping operations that Admiral James Stavridis had been talking about that he said will happen just like last year. The counteroffensive will not start until shaping is done.

    “
    From the Guardian

    Ukraine’s troops attack along front in apparent precursor to counteroffensive

    Russian forces driven back in at least two areas as Kyiv says it has shifted to offensive operations in some sectors

    A "no fly" would be HUGE.

    Kremlin chimp would have a massive stroke.

    If it includes no aircraft, no missiles, no drones, no nothing flying by the Moskhailiy.

    Yep....no Mafiosi birds could enter.....if so, can be met with F22/35s, or other certain advanced hardware.....which exists in NATO/US arsenals.

    Any deployment of a nuke by ruZZia or Belarussia would definitely lead to an interesting response from NATO. I imagine it would entail more than a no-fly zone.

    It is all good but the counteroffensive needs to be a success to some degree.

    You know who is at fault for all of this? Obama.! He refused to provide offensive weapons after 2014 and those “Ukrainian” presidents who destroyed the Ukrainian army such as the piece of human Schiest Yanukovich and traitors of the East.

    Giving the Fins back the Karelian peninsula would be a great thing.
