    An interesting Twitter thread on the Russian military logistics issues seen in the invasion of Ukraine.

  2. We have sold weapons to both sides as well so I cannot blame Turkey for profiting from being courted by both...

  5. Yeh. I was mostly commenting - a while back- in the spirit of saying that Turkeys placement of Russian missiles is not a sign that they are cozying up to Russia, because they are also knifing Russia in the back or front by arming Ukraine. Nothing personal, just business type of thing.

    Having said that, which refers to the selling of weapons, I nevertheless stumble a bit when I try to process the idea of a NATO member using Russian missiles for defense. No doubt the Ruskies can disable them by cyber at any time. I would like to boot Turkey out of Nato anyway so I am biased and have already done my rants on that so will let it be. No way do I want to be committed to coming to their defense if they are attacked. They are dealing with and siding with all sorts of snaky shit-bums and islamic terrorists and dont want to get involved in their defense. Nor do I want to share NATO level intelligence with them.

    Who would have ever thought that the leading Covid-denier propagandists turn out to also be the leading Putin propagandists.
