Perun with an analysis on what we know of the recent ammo storage explosions. There's praise for how far Ukraine has come in it's drone capability during the war (and it is kind of crazy to think that these attacks were saturation attacks made with weapons that didn’t exist at thw start of the war, which was a little over 2 years ago). Also quite a lot about Russian corruption and incompetence.
What I didn't expect was Perun using the ammo storage attacks to come down pretty hard on western limitations on weapons provided and limitations to their use. In essence, to him the recent ammo storage attacks is stuff that Ukraine should have been doing on 2022 or 2023 but couldn't because the West wouldn't let them. Ukraine has repeatedly shown a capability of doing disproportionate damage to Russia and an ability to hit them in their weak spots, but the West has been trying to force Ukraine to fight the war in a way that's best suited for Russia.
I would personally add that this is likely not a coincidence. This war has demonstrated just how good Russia is at influencing western decision making, while in contrast the western leader are constantly struggling to even get their own companies to hold up their end of the sanctions
The West doesn't even have a plan about what they're trying to achieve and how. It's not just that Russia has influence, they're much better at turning the influence they have into concrete advantages.
Putin is scum and a bit insane in some ways, but there is currently no one in the western leadership that can match his skill level. He just gets the dynamics of power so well, both at home and abroad. Benefits of being in power for so long possibly.
It's a good thing Ukraine also has extremely capable leadership, and that war is ultimately not just a leadership skill check.
I know we often complain about our leaders in the West, but they truly are a reflection of their constituency. Democracy by its very nature is malleable which is both its biggest strength and biggest weakness. It's also that in the West we're spoiled by peace and quite frankly too scared to do anything about it
Sorry but I can’t accept Putin isn’t some cunning genius, when his country is being slowly bled to death. For the second time in 50 years.
What he says goes as a dictator. We have to deal with people like Trump, and if he wins a total change in tactics for the worse.
That is the allure of strongmen. What they say goes, and the is no changing direction. It looks resolute and in the face of diverse democratic opposition I can see how it looks.
Yet Russia has been exposed and weakened. Do I wish NATO would just go in and end the war in a week? Absolutely, but that doesn’t serve the strategy the west is using. Its imperfect yes, but its extremely effective with how amazing Ukraine is.
There are reports of growing involvement of North Korea in the war. Ukrainian sources said 6 North Korean officers were killed and South Korean intelligence corroborated it as like true. They reported that North Korea is sending more of their military personnel there to get battle experience.

I am sure they don't want a 72 year old fat actor actually going there. They probably asked him to say stuff like this to try and motivate other people to go die.
