I'm still trying to comprehend the idiocy of what Putinist Russia is and what it is doing.

Militarily, they threw at Ukraine so much of what they had that they ended up having a large sector of Russia's border with Ukraine and their home territory unprotected and open for a ground assault.

Weak border guard units and frightened young conscripts were all they had in the Kursk region (and guess what happens along the border in Siberia and the Far East now).

They've been burning away everything, everything, everything -- tens of thousands of men, billions of dollars, thousands of Soviet vehicles, including those produced in the early Cold War era -- all for the sake of taking a dozen abandoned towns from Ukraine in Donbas and letting Putin caress his bruised ego by watching his TV war propaganda.

This can be compared to a stupid gambling addict who can't stop -- and who's frantically selling out everything he has and putting his family into debt to try and recoup himself - again, again, and again.

Russia also destroyed a gas hub delivering gas to Europe, so bye tens of billions of dollars in future lost revenue.

A Russian soldier captured by Ukraine recorded himself looting an abandoned house in the Kursk region. The video was reportedly retrieved from his mobile phone. It potentially corroborates reports of widespread looting from their own civilians by the Russian military.

Of course! Of course, they would go looting instead of defending their own native soil. Truly, the shameless cannot be shamed, and the honor less cannot be dishonored.

If reports of Ukrainian troops entrenching in Russia’s Kursk region were true, it could mean Kyiv intended to hold the territories, potentially for future negotiations.
