The Cold Light of Day

Russian Bank Collapse 

Russia was doomed

Among the reasons for the failure of Russia in the Ukraine is they were fighting a war using outdated tactics.

They were using tactics which hadn't been used since the Battle of Kursk. These days, few battles involve large tank assaults, tanks are useful, but not in an age of guerrilla warfare when the battle is raged on the street, and in the homes. The Russians would have learned this, you would imagine, after fighting, and losing wars in Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and Afghanistan.

A Trend I had to blog about

 Russian Bank Collapse

A Victory for the Ukraine

I rarely write about a trend, but there are exceptions to most rules.

This news is heartening for me, as I was in contact with two young ladies who were frontline medics in the battle.

Logic dictated Russia would lose the battle, as the armies of Germany lost the fight for Stalingrad.

Russia was fighting a war in a land which left them with lines of communication at risk, in a war the soldiers had no heart to fight in, against a people fighting for their homes. The were NEVER ging to win, as a result the Russian Bank has collapsed

Russian Bank Collapse

 Ukraine 2- Russia 0

 Ukraine Wins a Double Victory

Not only have the people of Ukraine beaten the armies of Russia, their victory caused the crash of the Russian Bank; it is official, the Rubel is worth less than the paper it is printed on now.

Some people never learn; I said when the invasion begun, it would fail for the same reason the armed forces of Germany failed to take Stalingrad.

You are fighting a battle thousands of miles from your home.

Your enemy are fighting for their homes.

You have thousands of miles of communication which can be attacked.

You have troops who don't have an idea why they are there, and don't want to be there.
