#3 "Sources have been telling me"

What kind of sources? Top. Sources.
Yeah, this reads like a media op. "OMG! Putin has lost it. What if he goes nuclear? We must do something." All part and parcel with that terribly distorted pic of Putin at a loooong table the other day.

#9 I think a number, perhaps a dozen or so, Spetsnaz ops were launched in the first two days of invasion. These were done to take airfields and other important property near big cities.

A lot of these ops were stopped and the troops killed or captured.

Obviously the Spetnaz command is somewhere between unhappy and suicidal.

#10 This stuff is so juvenile it must have come from the West Wing.

I was thinking that the bad news is that the Brandon WH gave a wink and nod to the invasion, but the good news was they provided the invasion plans.
