Well it's finally sunk in to one individual, well worth the watch

Al Jazeera reporting today that Russia is massing Aircraft and Helicopters on Ukraine border for a possible mass assault. Maybe VKS finally been told to get into the fight.
Need to ship those western air defense assets quickly

Russians have recently been giving Ukraine lots of air defence target practice shooting down cruise missiles, at one point claiming to have got 61 out of 71 fired. Are they quite sure this is a good idea?

The trouble is they can launch from inside Russia

Will this be Putin's last stand?

Sounds like someone is getting nervous, watch
I think its starting to dawn on them they can threaten the World and Nato as a whole with their threats, but we are not biting, we are in it for the long haul and are upping the quantity and quality of the arms we supply we are providing, something at the end of the day they will not be able to match, the only advantage they have is manpower over Ukraine, but as the talks of a war not an operation and the body bags roll home, or their children simply disappear in the wheat fields of Ukraine, then the resentment and underlying tensions will grow at home.
Oligarchs that had billions and enjoyed the lifestyle the world over, suddenly find their travel reduced to several floors out of windows and all on the whim of one man, may also play a role in his downfall too.

Translation of Girkin's long post on the potential of a "major" offensive by Russians, discussing three main directions: Belarus, Russian border in Belgorod/Kursk, Zaporizhzhia. Predicts zero chances of Ukrainian defeat even in case of success in some areas:
