    The Austrian Colonel Markus Reisner points that "Attrition" is Ukraines "new! tactic...as confirmed by Ukrainian defense secretary Danilov: "...moving forward is not the main task of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. He specified that the defense forces of Ukraine now see the number one task as " maximum destruction of manpower and equipment."

    -Yet its been very obvious for a good while that in a war of attrition Russia is winning and will continue to win hands down whilst Ukraine has the proverbial snowballs chance in Hell. Whats even more absurd is that they are talking about this when throwing an attacking force at a well prepared defense: that makes no sense whatsoever.

    So what new stage of madness is this? It only makes some kind of sense if they truly truly think they are wearing down Ivan until NATO steps in for the Bears coup de grace.
    Yet Ukraine has apparently depleted NATO's available armaments and the latter therefore isn't ostensibly capable of any such a thing.

    Most puzzling. I'm leaning more and more to the hypothesis that both the politicians the MOD and the Generals actually believed all the preposterous bullshit we presumed they were just feeding us about Ivan.

    They really thought the Russians would run out of shells and Ivan & the other peasants would run away.

    The Wests problem appears to be that it actually based a war strategy on what are effectively culturaly-centric beliefs which held that the West was the superior item and that the Russians were inferior beings in every way: effectively Borrell's "garden vs jungle" racism.
