“I used to teach military strategy at West Point. Putin will go down in history as the worst military strategist of the modern era.” I really enjoyed talking to @VictorBlackwell @CNN today about the opposite results of Putin’s missile terrorism. #ArmUkraineNow

Putin has already lost the war in Ukraine. War is a contest of wills. Putin & the Russian military can never break the will of the Ukrainian soldier/people/political party or international community of free (providing mil aid) to fight them until all Russians are out of Ukraine.
504
The only end of the war is complete Ukrainian victory. Russia's ability to apply force in Ukraine will culminate. Russia as a military and nation gets weaker everyday they continue the war. The common sense call for the Russian state would be a complete withdraw from Ukraine.
505
Fighting will continue. Winter will slow operations, but impact the poorly motivated, equipped, supplied Russians most. 10s of thousands of Russian soldiers will die in Ukraine for nothing.

Stop what you are doing and watch this! An amazing conversation with a very unique warrior, American veteran @jmvasquez1974 who has been fighting for Ukraine from the first days of the war. What a story! Bravo to the @MriyaReport and all involved in creating it! twitter.com/MriyaReport/st…

Kherson is Ukraine!

I think a few European leaders (looking at your France/Germany) and billionaires need to watch this... over and over. twitter.com/apmassaro3/sta…

The Belarus regime (especially Lukashenko) must be held accountable for their support to Russia's genocide from day 1.
515
For the record. As a student of urban warfare (author of a book on it), there is no way in HELL Russia, even with Belarusian troops (not going to happen, would be the end of Lukashenko), could make an attempt at Kyiv again. That would be a blood bath and epic faliure for Russia.

11 days from Moscow to the front line in Ukraine. Newly mobilized Russians say they are in Svatove, complain the only training they got was firing 3 (yes 3) rounds of ammunition and then off the to the front. youtube.com/watch?v=oMR0E1…

"For the first time in the history of Iran since the Islamic Revolution, there is this unique unity between the ethnicities. Everyone is chanting the same slogan. Their demand is the same...Iran's last King fell in 1979 after mass defections from the army" euronews.com/2022/10/14/ira…

"Russia is deporting and putting up for adoption thousands of Ukrainian children." 🤬🤬 Stop the genocide. #ArmUkraineNow to end the war soon. Send #ATACMSforUkraine already. Send them everything. twitter.com/AP/status/1582…
519
Stop listening to the opinions of people with a lot of money, followers, or fame but with zero education or experience in strategy, geo-politics, history, or military disciplines. No, actually Ukraine does not have to make peace or come to terms with Russia to end the war.
520
Providing military aid (all that they need) to Ukraine is the path to peace. It allows Ukraine to defend its people and land. Putin will only stop when he can no longer commit violence on Ukrainians and when his military has completely culminated in Ukraine. #ArmUkraineNow
521
Ukraine can (will) defeat Russia's military in Ukraine and reclaim/liberate its sovereign land. No that does not lead to nuclear war. There has never been a threat to Russia. This war had nothing to do with NATO. Russia is committing genocide in Ukraine.
522
Small arms (from M4, AK, PKM, to .50 cal) can be effective on slow, low flying aircraft and drones. It looks like I need to add a few pages to the "Mini-manual for the Urban defender" 🧵johnspenceronline.com/urban-warfare

"The head of Ukraine's defense intelligence agency predicts that the war will end by the summer." That might be possible, it will require continued & increased military aid (send #ATACMS ). Russian military in Ukraine is very weak & winter will crush them. youtube.com/watch?v=FttZRy…
524
Ukraine has called for a media/news blackout around Kherson. Russians evacuating civilians (their inserted Russian collaborators/proxies) Lots of things happening. Good news hopefully coming. 🤞 #Kherson youtube.com/watch?v=c2uhHQ…
525
Let's go! Russia is trying to upset the rules based global international order and is committing genocide on a sovereign nation/member state as a sitting member of the UN Security Council. What is the use of the @UN if the charter is not defended and enforced?
