  7.  @hernandocortez6351  You can Google all of these to get the articles.... Time Magazine 2nd September 2014 "Russian President Vladimir Putin said he could take control of Ukraine's capital city in as little as two weeks "....so EVEN putin predicted 2 weeks....but FAILED!....... 11th March 2022 Radio Free Europe..." “The enemy will be defeated and victory will be ours. And I have no doubts about this,” he said. Sixteen days into Russia’s war, Nikonov’s prediction, echoed by other Russian politicians, has not come to pass. Bigger, better equipped, more powerful, the subject of extensive reforms and restructuring, Russia’s military was supposed to steamroll Ukraine’s much smaller armed forces. In the Kremlin’s forecasts, Russia’s forces were supposed to be welcomed -- if not with open arms, then with simple resignation. Ukraine’s government was supposed to collapse or flee, leaving a vacuum that would be filled quickly by Moscow-appointed officials. None of that has happened. And the mismatch of predictions and reality has sent analysts scrambling to figure out where they went wrong. But it has also raised a question: Are the decision-makers in the Kremlin making bad decisions based on bad information?" (YES...putin WAS given bad information!) 15th March 2022, Business Insider, "When Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered an invasion on February 24, he expected a swift and decisive victory, seeming to believe his own propaganda about the strength of his armed forces and people's willingness to fight for a country, Ukraine, that he has defined as an integral part of his own. Within minutes of his televised war declaration, explosions were reported across Ukraine — including in the capital city, Kyiv, home to nearly 3 million people. It has now been roughly three weeks. Instead of quickly conquering Ukraine, the Russian military made strategic mistakes — failing to take out the country's air defenses; deploying tens of thousands of troops without adequate supply lines — and were met by a steadfast Ukrainian resistance that was underestimated by Washington and Moscow alike. "It seems obvious Putin was sold a bill of goods by his intelligence services," Michael Weiss, news director at New Lines magazine and director of special investigations at the Free Russia Foundation, told Insider. Lending credence to that theory is that, according to independent Russian news outlet Meduza, leaders of Russia's foreign intelligence service have been placed under house arrest since the invasion." ......so there you have it...Putin thought he would be in kiev in 2 weeks, in 2014 and hasnt gotten there in two years.....and all his intelligence officers briefed him he would have a "quick and easy victory".....and as we ALL can see, there has been no victory yet...and nothing has been quick or easy.
