  1. "the leadership of the Western powers have remained united over this conflict" Scholz would disagree, having been bullied into escalating the death and destruction in Ukraine, and the people feel quite differently from the leaders. Ordinary people are more focused on poverty and inflation. Outside of the West, many are hoping Russia wins or they just don't care.

  2. interesting that Clarke confesses Ukraine had no sense of nationhood before the war. Clarke not bright enough to realize this lack of nationhood led to the derussification of the whole of Ukraine in a desperate bid to find an identity. Sadly, the only sense of nationhood Ukraine could fine was "we are not Russian, look, we erased all Russian culture and compelled everyone to speak Ukrainian"....the very heart of why war broke out. should have left the Russian speakers alone.

  3. what a fool Clarke is. Mistakes are made in war, by both sides, but in general the war is on track for Russia, just as it was in Chechnya, Georgia and Syria. Russia takes years to accomplish its objectives, doesn't work on a Western timeline, and yes, Russia is much stronger than the West assumed.

  4.  @BobHoopClassic  given the "10 day operation" is a line made up by Western media, no surprise it turned out to be nonsense. just like "Ghost of Kiev"
