Netanyahu Open To Providing Military Aid To Ukraine, Including 'Iron Dome' Missile Defense System.

Russia's Tomsk State University has secretly created a 'mobilisation station' for its students and staff, to be activated within two hours of receiving the codeword 'Lineyka-222' ('Ruler-222') from the military enlistment office. It's the latest sign of a new mobilisation. ⬇️

I simply cannot understand the Wests intransigence against giving weapons to Ukraine for fear of upsetting Russia, the politicians really need their heads banging together and to wake up and smell the coffee, that particular boat has sailed over a year ago and it isn't coming back anytime soon, the sooner they commit and throw everything into the pot, the sooner the war will be over, I just pray it isn't to late.

This is something Western European policy makers need to read.
Much discussion of Russian strategic depth and why this war isn’t necessarily over quickly. https://kaitseministeerium.ee/sites/..._lessons_0.pdf Russia’s War in Ukraine: Myths and Lessons |

Thanks ORAC. This is fascinating and all too believable, though I doubt if our politicians will heed one word of it. Posturing and forthcoming elections are more important, aren't they, as we pile duties from flood relief, vaccine distribution and lately strike-breaking on our fine Servicemen while housing them in little better than pigsties. I'm glad I am growing old ...

What happens next year when grain reserves have exhausted and Ukraine no longer has the capacity to replenish?

Err…yes? That was exactly the point I made and I don’t understand your reply - sorry.
I know, as does everyone, that there have been stray missiles and deliberate attacks, but my statement was that there will be one, at some point, THAT CANNOT BE IGNORED. The West gas shrugged off everything so far because it does not fit the plan. The West have shown that we are terrified of Putin. We are like the puppy that is brought into a new home where an old dog already lives. We run around and display our energy and ability, but never near him, in case he bites. We stay at a distance, but as confidence grows, we slowly get closer, pushing the boundaries but always mindful of not going do far as to trigger a reaction… Ukraine is fighting for not only it’s existence, but also for ours. The time to go all in was months ago, but Western governments want Russias military worn down at the cost of Ukrainian blood, before they will contemplate allowing Ukraine to win. HIMARS .. no way…until we knew it was essential to prevent Ukraine losing. Then given. Tanks…no way…until we knew it was essential to stop Ukraine losing. Then given. Fighters…you get the idea. |
I think Ukraine had better win the war, all the Western technology falling into Russian hands could be very helpful to them.

Definitely the Ukrainians need longer range precision weapons to target RF assets on the Ukrainian side of the border. Really there should be no railway bridges standing in RF controlled areas of Ukraine – including the Kerch bridge.
These bridges need to be knocked down and kept down, as of many yesterdays. |
Ukrainian tank crews are already in Germany and Poland on their conversion training to Leopards
Training expected to last 6 weeks. First Leopards to be in Ukraine by end of March, as well as IFV's such as Bradleys. It all sounds like first western equipped armored battalion will be in action by end of March. https://www.ft.com/content/f7704b8d-...8-6b188607844f |
