So it's o.k. that Zelensky is doing this to Russia but Trump had better not do it to Iran?

This is, of course, a media propaganda piece about how the Ukrainians are winning the war. The media (and that includes war hawk Republican outfits like the New York Post) has been giving us these sorts of reports since this war began. Mostly it's been wrong.

Yes, the war has dragged on far longer than anyone expected but that is a coefficient of Western aid - huge amounts - to the Ukraine coupled with Russia's strategy, which is a war of attrition. Russia is trying to pull an anaconda on the Ukrainians, and that takes time.

Eventually Russia will win. The Ukrainians are losing so many people they are now talking about importing millions of Asians to resettle their country because they have no men left. When I read that I knew the war was starting to reach it's terminus.

The purpose of this article is to buck up the Ukrainian spirit, little more. But that doesn't mean it's not true; Russia has undoubtedly lost a fortune in this. But it won't stop the inevitable.
