This isn’t StarCraft or Command & Conquer. Untrained or barely trained troops aren’t going to just Zerg rush into a war and turn the tide. They’re going to get slaughtered, run away, or refuse orders. If Russia were being invaded I could at least understand it. Defensive positions vs offensive positions. But these guys will be tasked with marching towards fortified towns and cities while artillery shells land around them. And given that Russia doesn’t properly maintain their vehicles we will see another repeat of Feb/March when multiple trucks and tanks were rendered useless due to mud this winter. So many troops will be on foot, assaulting positions…

Hopefully some sort of Marshall Plan is put into place for Ukraine and Russia after all of this. Russia needs to get their shyt pushed in right now but nobody wants a giant zombie nation as a result. It must fukking suck to be an average Joe in Russia.

The result is likely to be more of the same. “You have a deep tradition of intelligence professionalism,” says Sir John Sawers, a former chief of mi6, “and like a gangrene on top of it is this growing corruption.” Maxim, the former fsb officer, agrees. “Back in the 1990s and 2000s there was a kgb touch to it. We stayed under the radar,” he says. The breaking point for him was when new graduates of the fsb academy were spotted driving a luxury Mercedes around Moscow. Ukraine is an opportunity to rebuild, he says. “They need to substitute this money world with something bigger. I’m not sure how they are going to do

The Deep State

In Episode 144 of the CounterVortex podcast, Bill Weinberg notes Putin's annexation of Ukraine's Donbas region not only came on exactly the same day as the 1938 Munich Agreement, which approved Hitler's annexation of Czechoslovakia's Sudetenland—it was also the same day that Putin launched two of his previous criminal military adventures. On Sept. 30, 1999, Russian tanks rolled into Chechnya, marking the start of the Second Chechen War, with massive aerial bombardment of the region's capital city of Grozny. On Sept. 30, 2015, Russia began air-strikes in Syria, marking the start of a massive military intervention on behalf of the Bashar Assad dictatorship, in which the city of Aleppo would be virtually destroyed by bombardment. And in Putin's new war of aggression in Ukraine, the Azov seaport of Mariupol has been similarly nearly obliterated. A review of this history reveals Vladimir Putin as a serial city-destroyer, who must be deposed and put on trial for his crimes against humanity.
