#1 So Vlad says, "I don't think they're frantic enough in Washington yet."
Expect the Chinese People's Orchestra to start playing a snappy tune by the weekend.

#2 perhaps a few A-10 runs to light up those tanks and APCs?

" It was initially not clear if the A-10s were American or under the control of nationalist forces sympathetic to Kiev"

#3 Appears Vlad is adjusting his 'October Surprise' schedule a bit. Might as well strike while the crisis and scandal iron is hot.

#4 The Ukrainians were kicking ~~Russian Soldiers~~ "pro-Russian supporters" butts, so tanks were called in. Will see how that works out, too.

#5 Frank: Don't you feel so much better now that the A-10's are being discontinued?

#6 IMO this is Vlad's = Russia's equivalent of sending strategic bombers off Guam + now California.

D *** NG IT, ITS WHAT OWG CO-SUPERPOWERS DO!

It can very easily blow up in the Globalists' face.

Again, GLOBALISM = CAN BE ASCRIBED AS HOW FAR CAN THE US + GREAT POWERS FALL BACK, PULL BACK, OR OTHERWISE SAFELY GEOPOL = MILPOL RETREAT, ETC. WIDOUT BEING EXISTENTIALLY THREATENED OR DESTROYED BY WANNABES, VEE THE NEVER-ENDING, OWG-N-GLOBALISM OR-NO-OWG-N-GLOBALISM "GREAT GAME".
