Agree mullet. Absolutely no one knows how this will end, including Putin the invader. But I don’t buy this argument about Volume. Listen to Mike Jackson’s interview on Battleground Ukraine. Amazing podcast. 175k dead Russians.. eventually the tide of public opinion will turn against Putin. Russia won’t stand for too much needless loss. We’ll see an internal tipping point and either Kremlin breakaways or society itself will rise up. Ukraine need this counter offensive to win back some serious ground so we can pile pressure on that bald ******** and create greater fissures domestically for him. I would love to know what MI6 know about Kremlin assets right now. They must be going hell for leather trying to find an amenable pair of ears. Sipp, whatever your view or agenda, whatever news we all read, let’s not forget Russia invaded a country for absolutely no reason other than its expansionist ambitions. Putin has no justification for this. Russia as a nation has been hijacked by a tiny group of ex-KGB nationalists who are now torching everyone’s security and economic stability so that they may stay in power and pursue their totalitarian agenda. No one in Russia wants the war. No one in the wider world. This is about one of the greatest hijack in living history. How Putin hijacked a country of 180 million people and bent them to his will. Through fear, through outright lies. Through intimidation. Pure gangsterism. And now he’s burning through them at a rate that is astonishing without so much as a crack in his demeanour. He’s destroyed entire city’s worth of families created generation of hate built on misinformation and lies. I don’t know how it’ll end, but part of me longs to believe somewhere in the Russian consciousness there’s a flicker of rebellious spirit that can one day soon be fanned just enough to derail his complete madness. I guess we’ll all have to wait and see. Peace to all of you, especially those on the frontlines of this criminal war.
