Actually Bobbers - I laugh at your usual post on this because it is quite funny, but
tonight it really could be "season defining". I want to beat that scum more than anything.
I think we're not far off a tipping point with the war where Putin's authority will to be undermined when the
new military hardware starts coming along for the West. A stark realisation that the war cannot be won. A desperate search for a way out.
I hope I'm right.
Also, Putin didn't suddenly wake up one day and think "wouldn't it be nice to have all those countries back under our control - let's invade one". It's his long-held belief. So your argument falls down a bit there too.
