    The repeated humiliations of the Russian military have been the big surprise of the war. They are the wild card that could lead to some very unexpected consequences.https://twitter.com/daxe/status/1514387196438106116 …

    Incredible. The Russian Black Sea Fleet flagship ‘Moskva’ is on fire off Odessa. Crew has abandoned ship. Ukrainians claim they hit her with two Neptune missiles. Moscow says it’s an accidental blaze. This is one of the most powerful warships in the world. https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidaxe/2022/04/13/the-ukrainians-claim-they-damaged-a-russian-cruiser-be-skeptical/ …

        They would lob a few nukes in fury you mean? So don't humiliate them?

        Or the Generals get sick of the institutions they love looking bad and decide they've had enough of the guy who set them up...

        While I hope all are rescued, I hope the warship can't be salvaged.

        One thing we can imagine is more carpet bombing of UKR cities

        To be fair...there are many textbooks to beating a modern navy. I mean the US has this exercise on it's resume.https://www.popularmechanics.com/military/a30392654/millennium-challenge-qassem-soleimani/ …

        We in the West continue to underestimate Ukraine and overestimate Russia. The Moskva had Russia's most advanced anti-missile system, & yet... Our mistakes have distorted Western policy, lending undue influence to 19th century nonsense like spheres of influence.

        Surface fleets have been obsolescent against equipped forces since cruise missiles became ubiquitous. Even with modern CWIS.

        Too bad people don't remember the Winter War in Finland or the Russo-Japanese War.

        Their level of seniority or respect vis-a-vis Beijing can be marked as nil. That future relationship will be more akin to that of a Persian satrapy. Marked independence of choice/governance within, but not of action abroad and economic dependence.
