More Good News

 


Keeping track of the good news: reports from Ukraine suggests major gains against the Russians. At last report, the Ukrainian forces near Kharkov are advancing at a walking pace, twenty kilometers a day. They are through the Russian lines and, for now, moving more or less at will. It looks like blitzkrieg. 

I would have thought this impossible with modern missile weaponry—unless, that is, the Russians are out of missiles. It is possible the Ukrainians will soon cut off up to 20,000 Russian troops. They have fled so fast the Ukrainians are capturing large caches of weapons and ammunition intact. 

If Russian morale is as low as has sometimes been reported, this might lead to general collapse—on the front lines, and perhaps, in Moscow.

It is all going better than could have been expected.
