It’s interesting to look at “what’s happening over there.”
And I have great respect for the state of Israel and their elimination of leaders from Iran and Hezbollah. Because of how the hacking of internet infrastructure by Mossad hackers affected the worldview of one cowardly old bunker man—my respect goes out for that.
Mass “cheburnet,” “Mak,” “white lists,” internet shutdowns in cities (which topples cashless payments for businesses and drives them into cash and shadow), restrictions—all because one old man was scared. He was bored, wanted some excitement. Nice excitement, the whole RF is trembling from this excitement, literally and figuratively.
However, there is recognition of the efficiency of deep-mid strikes. And z-military correspondents had a significant impact on this.
Why?
First of all, because restrictions affect their TG-platforms.
Secondly, under current conditions, they are scared to approach the line, even from dozens of kilometers away. When you look at the hunting of logistics by the SOU forces 30-40 km from the LBS, you don’t really want to go even to the 2-3 line positions. And the soldiers they communicate with, who had safer positions unlike “meat” positions, also are not very eager anymore. And this changes their perception. Because after four years of full-scale war, they do not feel safe even in the rear. Moreover, bodies are constantly being brought back from the rear. How to fight in such conditions?
This is not even mentioning the deep strikes, Silicon Valley, Tuapse, Primorsk, missile-carrying ships, wholesale removal of air defense, and much more. In addition, they see that this trend is only spreading, and it… scares them. Literally.
Once in the late 90s, we occasionally watched videos of dog fights. Such entertainments existed then, fortunately, it did not gain much popularity because it is cruelty. But the 90s were… peculiar, and so were the entertainments.
One way to organize an interesting fight for the organizers was to pit a large fighting dog (one of those large breeds) against a smaller one (bull, pit, staff). And it wasn’t always the big dog that defeated the small one. Most of what I saw were victories of the staffs and pits.
But the fight pattern was always the same. The big dog would knock the small one down with its chest and start tearing. It was a horrific sight. The pit was literally surviving, trying to bite something of the opponent, but the dense coat and flexible skin hindered this. But it did not give up. It was being torn, but it held on and looked for its chance. In the first minutes, you wouldn’t give the smaller dog a chance of winning, so unfair did the size difference make it look.
But after a while, the larger dog would begin to tire. It needed a breather, even if just for a second. During these seconds, the pit would improve its position and more confidently grip the skin. It tried to move its jaws to the throat, paws, belly, groin, anywhere to cause more damage. And it held on firmly.
After some time, uncertainty began to appear in the big dog’s actions. It no longer only tried to inflict harm but also break away to prevent the opponent from getting a deeper grip and to catch its breath. But the smaller dog was only intensifying its efforts at this moment. Which looked impossible after everything it had endured and how it looked (there was literally a lump of bloody flesh).
The large dog needed air, rest, a break, its big body consumed a lot of energy, which it had exhausted, but the pit, ignoring everything, continued moving its jaws to the throat. And that moment—the sad howling. And the organizers rushing to separate the dogs with buckets of water.
Why did I recall these events?
Because we see that the first stage, namely the uncertainty about defeating this indestructible chunk of meat with teeth, has already arisen in RF. Now we must not stop until some Trump comes running with buckets of water. And until then, we must tear the enemy’s throat as much as possible.
