    The failure to protect the ships and aircraft of Russia is yet more evidence (as if any more evidence was needed) that Vladimir Putin is not fit to be Commander in Chief – this was a war of choice (his choice – a personal vanity project) and he did not even prepare for it properly – even almost four years into the war (an utterly pointless war), Russian ships and aircraft are not properly protected.

    “But he will still win the war” – RUSSIA, NOT Vladimir Putin may “win the war” – not “because of his leadership” as his toadies will claim, but IN SPITE OF his leadership.

    “Ivan the Terrible defeated the Tatars and gained control of the Volga river – making Russia a great power”.

    Ivan the Terrible achieved NOTHING – he was a drunk and a lunatic. The ordinary Russian soldier achieved these things – not because of him, in spite of him.
