| #12 He hasn't even begun to unleash the fire and fury available to him. So stupid not to sign a treaty.. all this could have been avoided. Now he's threatening nuclear war and no one even knows who the hell is in charge of your nation. |

| #11 Putin being EX-KGB Lt Colonel Spy that resigned and went straight into politics in 1991. Is a dyed Deep USSR RED Communist. He is likely to try anything, including 1960's DEFCON 1 resulting scenario actions. Whatever the case, it is clear Biden and his handlers overplayed their game of Saber Rattling. |

| #8 Pooty hasn't even begun to fight He has 100 times the firepower he's used so far Zelensky should cash in his chips while he still has a city else Kiev will look like Grozny did in 2000 (and that was before Pooty arrived) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Grozny_(1999–2000) |

| #7 Putin is reaching for the gold ring. He is no western politician. No meaningful help from the west. Ukraine will fold in short order. Ukraine is already asking for ammunition. |

| #6 This cast is for the wrong player. It is Biden in the bunker. Putin will stay the course. He has much to gain but everything to lose. |

| #5 Z agreed to peace talks in Belarus - said he wouldn't, now he's giving up P will bomb the shit out of UA the way the US bombed the shot out of Cambodia during the Paris Peace Talks If Z is smart he'll agree to partition UA and let RU have the east and South, that's all RU wants anyway, this will be over real soon |

| #4 I still think Putin is a very smart guy but if his invasion forces continue to be frustrated I have to wonder if he has enough domestic support to stay the course. Every day the Ukrainians hold out and Zelensky mocks him it will get worse. |

| #1 Well, if he has lockdown fever, it might explain his willingness to, at least ,threaten nuclear war... |
