I can see that being a realistic price to pay for a peace settlement this year, so no harm in floating it as an incentive to make Russia give...
Agree with most of that except the “… as long as Putin is making progress part.” Because he isn’t, and that is not discouraging the intransigence...
(shrugs) If that is true, then the Democrats learned the wrong thing from this election. If they want to get the lion’s share of their platform,...
Agree. That’s how I read it, too, especially given that the mineral rights deal has been signed. Russian intransigence (which was inevitable for...

I’m not sure in either case. On the subject of interceptability, my understanding is the ATACMS’ high arc makes it more susceptible to detection...
Well, we know that just can’t be. I’ve been told with good authority that Putin is going to have his crack troops out of the trenches and sweeping...
Yes, I saw that. That is not remarkably different than China's earlier claim about being able to detect the F35 by its infrared signature. So my...
