https://gulagu-net.ru/news/2022-03-17-1239.html Some good takes when speaking in retrospective. -Were not seeing a lot of TOS because if hit by artillery or drone, every friendly in the rear gets annihilated. No one wants it in their column (its a massive bomb with no armor). -Invasion secrecy did not give RU information units time to prep. UKR completely dominated the information war. Putin friendly politicians in the western sphere have zero room to pressure Ukraine for fear of public backlash.

Given the Russian government's recent track record there is a non-zero chance it will be discovered that the arsonist is actually a Russian-born employee of the embassy.

I have to wonder how many pilots have wanted to do something similar to Trump. And how hilarious the tantrum from that would have been.

I'd have thought the main Russian priority with tanks wouldn't be manufacturing new ones but instead getting their existing inventory where it can be useful and repairing those already in place. It's not like WWII where they need to produce tens of thousands of modern tanks and a production disruption could be crippling, I'd assume even if they were making new ones it would probably be at least a month from the start of manufacturing to getting it shipped to Ukraine, probably more.

All over a country he cannot even take over.

For sure, I'd assume there are tons of ultra-valuable previously secret items flowing in NATO's hands that aren't as large or photogenic, probably lots of high ranking officer and technical staff captured too. On a related note there was an NYtimes article about how tens of thousands of IT young workers were leaving Russia which are exactly the group of workers most nations absolutely would want to keep around to remain competitive.

https://twitter.com/NewYorker/status/1506326240885710852 Nice interview with a Russian journalist who's been covering the state security services since the 90s. One of the answers I thought was interesting is how is news of the war is promulgating in Russia quote:Q: I saw a quote from you where you suggested that opposition to Putin among average Russians was likely to gather steam on social-media and Internet platforms, and that Internet companies pulling out of Russia for reasons of wanting to punish Putin or the Russian state could have negative effects. Is that still how you feel?
