Putin's Slow-Motion War
"The second principle is: Act with the utmost speed. Every unnecessary expenditure of time and every unnecessary detour is a waste of strength. Take the shortest possible road to the goal." - Von Clausewitz, Vom Kriege
"[In war] you may lose men, but never lose a minute." - Napoleon
While the Team Russia analysts have been right more often than the myriad of NATO/Ukraine shills, they too cherish overly optimistic estimations of their boys: saying odd things like, “Russia is BRILLIANTLY shaping the battlefield!” Sure….
Whatever his virtues, Putin clearly miscalculated the depth of russophilia in Ukraine; as well as the slithery chutzpah of NATO.
Now, in violation of every military dictum, Russia finds itself in a slow motion war with a country it could and should have wrecked within a week or two. For one, why is most of of Ukraine’s civil infrastructure - railroads, trains, power stations, bridges, water supplies, internet, etc. - allowed to happily hum along... largely untouched? It all should have been target number one… on day one.
And why not cut the fuel lines to Europe at the very start?
Not a lot of what Russia is doing in Ukraine adds up. Some are even saying that Putin is acting his scripted part in the JWO scheme: https://thenewamerican.com/putin-key-player-in-the-new-world-order/
But perhaps Putin has a deeper game. Bleeding NATO through scores of small cuts before lowering his big commodities boom? Learning the secret inner workings of NATO? Giving the lads some needed battlefield skills preparatory to the greater European conflagration he sees coming?
A strange scenario is playing out over there.

To him, it's a "military operation" to de-militarize, de-nazify Ukraine, and liberate the Russian regions in the east, while minimizing loss of life, hence the slow speed instead of all out war speed, taking out the railways, water supply, etc. The idea was to avoid hurting the non-military population in terms of food, energy, loss of life, etc. But he's losing the propaganda war though. 99% of people in the West, excluding those like us, view Russia as the aggressor committing crimes against humanity. Hence the endless sea of blue and white flags. I think it will come down soon to the control of the flow of wheat through the Black Sea. No wheat, many will soon die in the Middle East and Africa. At some point Putin will declare official war with Ukraine, and then the SHTF. Planting 6,000 square feet of sweet potatoes, corn, and green beans. Yes sir.
