  1. Bakhmut matters because Zelensky, against NATO advice, poured cannon fodder into his precious "Fortress Bakhmut", sacrificed thousands of young lives for a place most analysts said was not strategically significant, and he lost. Churchill, he is not. More importantly, we are told the victors are a demoralized, poorly trained, badly led bunch of convicts armed with spades. Well, that is one hell of a victory over the NATO trained, armed and advised lads. For NATO, it is Kabul 2021 repeated, hence the panic to turn to air power.

  2. 100% right. The cauldron drew in Ukrainian battalions ad infinitum, and they got massacred.

  3.  @alamisha8576  are these the same UK and US military experts that said it would take the Taliban 90 days to take Kabul? Hilarious assumption that NATO has superior weaponry to Russia. The evidence is that everything NATO sends gets destroyed or nullified by Russia. Where are NATO's hypersonic missiles? Hilarious assumption that NATO has any stocks left to send! The cupboard is bare, old boy! Hilarious assumption about more recruitment. Who is left? 15 year olds and pensioners? Hilarious assumption about a counter offensive. What are we waiting for? the dry weather is here, NATO has sent all it has. why the delay? hmmmm
