I'm tired guys, daily essays plus the grind of work, a wife going through menopause and a sick cat is all catching up with me. I'm not getting much interaction on here anymore with my essays which makes me think ya'll are bored with them. Should I stop writing them? I know trying
to hit all the bases every day gets tedious. Obligatory tag of @JohnBoozman, @SenTomCotton and @RepFrenchHill followed by pumping the @MriyaAid and the @georgian_legion with a reminder to visit @MriyaReport to stay informed... It's all pretty formulaic and at this point it is not
an easy task to come up with some new and interesting to write about. Especially as everyone is waiting for news out of Kherson. Do I branchout? I have avoided US domestic politics to keep this feed as a leave your personal politics at the door everyone who supports Ukraine
is welcome here. I could talk about #drivingtruck, #battletech or #overlanding. Though overlanding will be easier to talk about in November after #RendevousInTheOzarks. Maybe I just need a full nights sleep to find my inspiration. At least I am not being shelled like so many are
in Ukraine. My energy costs seem to be trending down unlike Europe, no immediate danger of hunger, flood or fire so maybe I am just whining... first world problems right? Speaking of first world problems and disasters... I see the IAEA is inside the NPP. Are they now inspectors
or hostages? In a sense we are all hostage to #pedoputin's machinations. Though some enjoy their captivity. Case in point @AKorybko who apparently isn't getting paid enough by Kleptograd to make his payments to rent-a-brain and is now rolling around with nothing but air in the
voluminous head of his. He claims that @Kama_Kamilia blocking him was an admission of defeat... Apparently, the fact that #WeAreNAFO collecting bans like Pokemon cards and this being able to show "thousands" of Russians and genocide enablers admitting "defeat" never occurred to
him or his handlers. So if you happen to vist his page today, drop him some screen shots of famous vatniks and Russian fascists admitting defeat. Until Ukraine wins on Ukraine's terms: Slava Ukraini! Thanks for letting me vent.

Thread A) Good morning, sorry about whining yesterday, I was tired, uninspired and feeling like I was wasting my time. The response my pity party got was humbling. What shall we talk about today? I think perhaps a primer on the flow of an offensive battle might be in order.
After all we are starting to get flooded with stuff like this
As my long-term readers know, I predicted that Ukraine would not be launching massive tank thrusts like the US did to liberate Kuwait. Rather I said the Ukrainians would take a bite and hold approach where each success would help shape the next move because that approach fit

So reports are the IAEA has reached the NPP, but that Russia is also reporting that Ukrainian SOF tried to seize the plant likely as an excuse to explain away military assets inside the plant. I think Russia will go for a mix of Potemkin Village mixed with Wizard of Oz-ish don't
look behind the curtain. Obviously, Russia lies so hopefully the IAEA can get Ukrainian workers alone to receive messages or intel discreetly without endangering the plant workers who are already subject to rape, torture and murder. Then again, that is also an increasingly common
fate given the slip fall (out a window) death of Ravil Maganov VP of Lukoil. Regime losing its grip or ladder climbers making moves in unsettled times? Speaking of making moves, a Russian telegram channel asked people to report on Ukrainian movements. #WeAreNAFO spammed the F out

So yesterday saw a great man exit the world stage. Mikhail Gorbachev died at 91. Reactions have been mixed with a bit of hostility and accusations that us "westerners" just don't know the truth. Maybe, but lets dive into this a little bit. First I said he was a great man
This is not to mean he was good, effective, or grandiose. Rather its a historical tool to describe someone who changed the course of history through his actions. Before he came to power in the USSR the US and Soviets had reached their absolute nadir of relations. Able Archer is
perhaps the most dangerous moment of the Cold War era even more so than the Cuban Missile Crisis because a paranoid cliché ruled the USSR. Yet within just a couple of years of coming to power he and Ronald Reagan had managed to turn the downward spiral into one that was generally

Welcome to the fog of war. You can hear the guns firing and see distant flashes on the horizon but very little else. Ukraine obviously needs OPSEC and to help conduct successful operations and Russia lies. FIRMS data can provide some insights but that is only the vaguest of
picutures. Your own commander is in the dark and can't raise anyone on the radio. There is little fuel, little fresh food, everyone is scared shitless and the men just want to go home except there is a giant ass river behind you and no bridges across it. This is the current
picture. This is the information situation facing many Russian invaders this morning. It is going to compel commanders to do something very stupid: transmit. Whomever finds themselves in charge of a part of the battle is going to have to transmit and that makes them vulnerable to

Big news this morning, if true the offensive to liberate Kherson has begun. Fingers crossed its true, crossing every finger that it goes well.
This will not be easily observed due to opsec but those who prowl the FIRMS data may be able to trace the general flow of the battle. Intercepts may also provide us with some insight. @wartranslated may prove to be our Oracle of Delphi for this
Everyone pray for success. If this is the big one, Ukraine needs the win. Pray that it comes with a minimum of loss to the Ukrainians who will need every son and daughter to rebuild their nation. It's going to be bloody and horrible and only look like victory in comparison to

The @georgian_legion gave #Fellas a shout out
and #WeAreNAFO now has a prime-time anchor for our media ops with the arrival of @JRewinski because expansion is non-negotiable. All kidding aside, it really is something profound when private citizens all
over the world now have the ability to affect the battlefield via private donations of money, goods and services and individual acts to counter dis-info and propaganda online are successful enough to gain the recognition of a nation fighting for its survival.
