this is not the Gulf War

that was a forgone conclusion

no chance of breaking containment, Iraq was nolo contendere and the Cold War was over

this is a real war

where it could quickly spiral right out of control into a global conflagration

and this is the first one

since the end of the Korean War

EDIT: possibly old footage, but suspicious that it’s showing up now. Games are afoot.

the Gulf War was like a live fire exercise, it was simple, one direction, rolled over them effortlessly

this is give and take, attack & counterattack, back & forth, no forgone conclusions, fully contested

on five fronts simultaneously

high intensity mass mechanized conventional war

in terms of the scale, intensity, pace, and full spectrum of warfighting

this is World War Three level already, this is what World War Three looks like, at the theater level

I can tell what they are using by the types of explosions

US Treasury sanctioning Putin directly.

But….
Russian leaders including Putin himself have in past statements warned that sanctions against the sitting head of state would be seen as tantamount to an act of war.
