Russia is clearly losing the war in Iraq. FJB. Time to go I think. A little history not from ISW.

forget about Wagner commanders...what is Pooty boy gonna do about this guy???...

The officials said they are trying to learn if Gen. Sergei Surovikin, the former top Russian commander in Ukraine, helped plan Mr. Prigozhin’s actions last weekend, which posed the most dramatic threat to President Vladimir V. Putin in his 23 years in power.
there's only 2 options at this point...a big purge in the Russian hierarchy...or Pooty boy's a goner..

Will Wagner's men leave Ukraine or sign up with Russia? If they sign up with Russia do they stay in Ukraine?

Sure. They'll be used to clear minefields by running accords them.

This guy usually has very good insight on what's going on

I suspect the way Moscow hopes this will play out is the commanders will move to Belarus and then possibly decamp for operations in Africa, meanwhile they will try to get back Wagner’s heavy equipment, and then figure out how to use the rank and file that chooses to stay.

The Ukraine War is not about 'saving Democracy in Ukraine'. It is about saving democracy in the world. Democracy would not exist if Russia were allowed to succeed.
The form of government Ukraine uses will be up to the Ukrainians and will have no world wide consequences since Ukraine has shown no interest in invading and ruling other countries.
A successful Russia would be a world wide catastrophe.


How to tell, if you are talking to a bot:


  1. Tweet syntax
    Using human language is still incredibly hard for machines. A bot’s tweets may reveal its algorithmic logic: they may be formulaic or repetitive, or use responses common in chatbot programs. Missing an obvious joke and rapidly changing the subject are other telltale traits (unfortunately, they are also quite common among human Twitter users).
  2. Tweet semantics
    Bots are usually created with a particular end in mind, so they may be overly obsessed with a particular topic, perhaps or reposting the same again and againr tweeting about little else.

Sweet!
Someone thinks I'm a bot. Flattered, I am.


Russia is being destroyed by sanctions.
I'm glad.


There!.... Now, do robots have feelings?!
