They keep saying they expect Russia to begin an offensive in the next few weeks, oblivious to the fact that the offensive began weeks ago, after Russia took Soledar, and before the tank deal was even announced. These are not smart people.

To be fair,

I'm not good at this "war" stuff, but which country is currently militarily occupying large parts of which country, again? I feel like as a general rule, usually the country that is being militarily occupied by the other country is probably the country that isn't doing super duper good, but again don't quote me on that I'm not a "war" guy.

To be fair,

Oh shit, guess I was wrong -- I guess it's actually usually the country that is being militarily occupied by an invading force which is the country that is winning the war. The more you know!

Also you don't seem anxious to respond to my poast below where I ask why this gif that ends five months ago is supposed to be a devastating rebuttal re the current state of play in Ukraine c. February 2023, but I'll assume that's just another thing I don't "get" because I'm "retarded" and "not really a war guy."

It's fine to say that the offensive is failing, but that requires you to admit that one has already begun. Ukraine's military leadership seems ignorant about this.

Russia is preparing to launch a major new offensive against Ukraine in the coming weeks, a top Ukrainian security official said, adding to mounting concerns in Kyiv and the West that the Kremlin is preparing a renewed push to seize large areas of the country.

“Russia is preparing for maximum escalation,” said Oleksiy Danilov, the secretary of Ukraine’s National Security and Defense Council, in an interview with Sky News published online early Wednesday local time. “It is gathering everything possible, doing drills and training.”

Western countries have difficulty responding to a Chinese weather balloon. They act as though they can stop Taiwan from reunification with China. Their failure in Ukraine is not surprising.

The only difficulty was in the decisionmaking process. I will say the one thing we haven't seen so far is what the USAF and Navy can do, particularly the USAF. We now know they can take down these balloons, but maybe that was never in doubt. For several days we were forced to speculate because Biden wouldn't authorize USAF to take that step.

I read a very WIDE range of estimates on its altitude, from as low as 5k feet to 150k feet. There's a big difference there, not just in terms of anyone's ability to hit a target that size at that range, but in also in terms of the cost/benefit analysis. Also, at this point I don't trust anyone who claims they know how high it was. Even if every media outlet agreed today that it was at 60k feet, that would not be enough to convince me.
