  1. Russia gains objectives with minimal troop losses and maximum casualties on the enemy. But they don't hold those objectives very tightly. They retreat against offensives, inflicting maximum casualties. Rinse and repeat. As for Prigozhin announcements, I think it's all smokescreen. Convey the impression of weakness and division, inviting Ukrainian forces into yet ANOTHER forlorn hope, at great cost to themselves. Russian ammo expenditures are off the charts, but Russia prepared well in advance, with enormous stockpiles, while the West frittered away its actual fighting abilities and economic wherewithal to support them. USA is trapped in cascading errors and misconceptions, if you assume its purpose is liberty, civil rights, and economic prosperity for all. To my eye, they're making things as bad as possible for themselves, to trigger cascading crises that will justify the final step(s) to functional dictatorship. Right now, the apparatchiki think they will all rule beside their masters, but they will be the first to go, as power at the top seeks to consolidate. Who will be our Lenin? Who will be our Trotsky? Who will be our Stalin? The wheel turns. May human progress prevail in spite of those who insist on shaping it by force.
