[TygrBright]

...to assassinate Ukrainian leaders.

And the Ukrainians are zotzing the death squads.

There is no conceivable way you can spin this into anything positive for P*.

It's kinda mesmerizing.

1. Deathsquads equal Warcrimes. nt

2. Was key part of his plan: Roll up Ukr govt, install puppets, declare self the reuniter of Gtr Russia

It depended on Ukraine falling quickly. Putin's troops were apparently only one echelon deep, hence supply chain problems (fuel, food).

Troops are underpaid, underfed, lied to about "exercises" instead of invasion, and unhappy.

was to make it easier for the Ukrainian military to flush these guys out.

7. Killing

At this point I’m thinking of the scene in The Producers where Franz Liebkind tries to commit suicide in Max’s office with an empty pistol.
