(#4916) The tide has begun to turn in Ukraine

      Russia went all out to gain little advantages in the East and South of Ukraine. Now they are facing not only a lack of qualified troops to fight but their munitions are running low. What putin hadn't figured, once again, is the amazing fighting spirit of the Ukrainian people. His massive underestimation of his opponent is obvious and soon his backers have got to do something about it. I cannot believe that I am still writing about putin as leader of Russia. He is a buffoon who cannot stand in the same frame with honor and respect. He is a doomed and injured creature who through smoke and mirrors is still operating. Well the Ukrainian people have put up with his war crimes long enough and are poised to do something about it.
     Zelenskyy has a well prepared army about to unleash its fury on the Russian horde. They could have taken out the bridge over the water connecting Russia to Ukraine a couple of weeks ago but have held off from doing so through pressure from the west. I suspect that it is all about timing and the timing isn't quite right yet. Ukraine has about a 1.4 million person fighting force ready to expel just the few 100 thousand occupying Russians from Ukrainian soil. As Zelenskyy is getting his government/administrations house in order I also suspect that resupplying his next offensive is in action as well. Soon, Very soon the Russian occupation of the east and south of Ukraine will be no more with Crimea and the Donbas being liberated.
     It should be less than weeks now from the full onslaught of the Ukrainian counter offensive and when it does begin all hell will break loose on the Russian side. There will be mass desertions and mass casualties as they scramble to get out of Ukraine. What is left of the Russian sympathizers will surely be dealt with and no amount of crying that will save them. A new Ukraine that is tidied up from Russian influence is about to begin and when the fighting is over Ukraine will become more powerful than Russia. Such is the fate of the defeated and putin and his cabal will carry that weight for the rest of their short miserable lives.
