While the Kremlin shifts to desperate drone strikes and reinforced pockets, Syrskyi is stalling for something bigger—and Europe is quietly arming him for it.
Ok, I won’t panic. I wish Ukraine could pull off another her stealth h attack inside Russia. If would make a heUkrainians sleeping in the metro night after night some hope. Considering how much Ukraine has been batted around by Trump’s administration they are doing an incredible job. Bravery and determination make up for a great deal.
Looking forward to Ukraine missile production producing in volume. I could see stockpiling Ukraine production and German missiles till they can be launched in large volleys to overwhelm Russian defenses. Love to see the postings of Russian armaments industry sites as the source of billowing flames and smoke….
Indeed, very in depth… Wow! I have read it and reread it with certain points, especially coming out as bullet points.
I like the fact that things are happening that we are not aware of in our face, so to speak. We don’t always need to know everything before the time is right!
I have read it, then taken a walk and was coming back to read again. With you regarding this article. Aren’t we fortunate to be able to have Shankar do all this research and share it with us!
Indeed, we are! I always look forward to Shankars posts; afterwards, I’m always forwarding them to others. Yes indeed, we are lucky to have Shankar and his Consis!
It's been over a year and a half now that I've been convinced this war is nothing more than a way to weaken the Russians as much as possible. It's as if they're trapped: they failed to take Kyiv three and a half years ago, and now they’re struggling to capture the entire Donbas.
Like you, I believe the Ukrainians are absolutely right to stay on the defensive and make the Russians pay dearly for every inch of land. As long as Russia doesn't conquer at least the whole Donbas, they don’t have any kind of “victory” to sell to their domestic audience — so they’ll keep pushing.
That plays to our advantage in the West, as we’re able to drain Russia’s money and resources through Ukraine. And it also benefits the Ukrainians, who still hope to reclaim their lost territories — but above all, to avoid falling under Russian control, like Belarus already has.
I am not panicking about Ukraine but the war is just too long, difficult to recreate the initial spontaneous help but at this point, I believe, everybody involved is doing whatever they can.
Syrskyi is perhaps trying to assemble large amount of Russian POW - how embarrassing for Putin!
And yesterday, I had listened to YouTube Inside Russia , suggested by Stephen ONeill, horrid conditions inside of Russia! It has to backfire eventually!
Abrams tanks were the glory weapon two-three decades ago. Now they are fuel and maintenance hogs, and drone fodder death traps for the crews. Technology and innovation have moved warfare to a new environment that tanks no longer belong in.
When u realise how dumb the average person is then you realise half of them are dumber than that. We cope the best way we are able to dont we. Anytime now 3 years on all the predictions will come true.

Char there is also a good group of regular readers whose comments I learn from and enjoy reading as well.

Thanks for the update and analysis. It's too bad Ukrainian drones could not join the cancelled Russian naval parade
Salva Ukraine
Could it be the Abram’s sent by Australia that are making a difference?
No.
Abrams tanks were the glory weapon two-three decades ago. Now they are fuel and maintenance hogs, and drone fodder death traps for the crews. Technology and innovation have moved warfare to a new environment that tanks no longer belong in.
I’m eager for the final episode of this horror show!
Kill the Monster!
