  1. I disagree. The slow escalation could lead to a major break. As StormShadow and if ATACM, then Russia might say "Screw it!" Russia's been mobilizing, training, and blooding its forces, and are closer and closer to being able to just roll to the Polish and Rumanian borders. Meanwhile, the Ukrainians are going all-out to impress NATO before the meetings, next week. Ukraine's getting some propaganda footage, from Russian infantry retreating, but it's all of a piece. "Chase us. We retreat, and call in artillery." The Ukrainians do seem to have better precision munitions, but they don't have very many, and the West is hard-pressed to supply a strategically significant number of such munitions. The Russians have a lot of tanks. If they decide to go all-out, they can sacrifice a lot of tanks to get a location on the batteries taking them out. Frankly, I don't think they'd have to sacrifice very many tanks, and may even rig up some remote-controlled vehicles just to draw fire. I think the Ukrainians will run out of ammo long before they make a significant dent in an all-out, combined-arms assault. I think it's just a matter of time until Russia feels like it's ready.

  7. If a worldwide gold-backed currency takes over, the dollar will go up in smoke. The Ponzi scheme will collapse. The U.S. Gov't will either learn to live within its means or become a 3rd-world country.

  9. But I have to admit, it has undergone short-term fluctuations, when guys like Bunker Hunt (tried to corner silver) try to manipulate it. And II wouldn't put it past the U.S. Gov't to manipulate the price of gold. I'm just shocked it hasn't already, long since, shot up in dollar price.
