Comments by "Jeanne Halperin" (@edalder2000) on "The Failed Logistics of Russia's Invasion of Ukraine" video.

  1. I am reminded of The Highway of Death during Gulf War I. Late in the war, a huge Iraqi convoy was spied going north towards Iraq with all sorts of booty. US forces were able to use AWACS planes to pinpoint US. Vietnam era planes to knock out the front and rear vehicles in that long convoy. This 30 years ago and those Vietnam era planes were out of US Inventory a few years later. Anyway-once the front and rear Iraqi vehicles were stopped dead, It was a shooting gallery. Somewhere between 1200-2000 Iraqi vehicles were destroyed. The utter failures in logistics, leadership, and more have been exploited by Ukrainian forces. NATO and Western nations have also supplied all sorts of equipment and real time data to Ukraine.

  2. Putin's buildup reminds me of an rule in stage drama. IIRC Anton Checkov made it clear that if a gun was revealed anywhere on stage, it would be used.
