It appears that Ukraine is really playing the russians. Pretending like they may attack Putin's big "victory " celebration, which I don't think they have the slightest intention of doing. In response russia is pulling lots of air defense from other regions to the capital. Last night Ukraine took advantage of this with a massive attack of 448 drones and missiles. Hit two major defense manufacturing sites and two military airfields and who knows what else... Only a few stooges are attending the parade; and of those coming most are sending lower ranking dignitaries. Airports have huge delays from all the shutdowns and russia seems to have shut off mobile telephone service, some internet and some ATMs and credit card transactions not working. I am hoping for another mass attack on the 9th but possibly that won't happen. You can imagine the tremendous amount of planning coordination and just hard work involved in drone strikes of this magnitude. In other news, some on the Trump team (Vance and Kellogg) seems to be blaming russia finally for blocking peace but as usual no new sanctions, no pressure on russia, In fact Trump saying they should be allowed to participate in the World Cup as an incentive for peace. Can he really be that dense?
