[QUOTE]Originally posted by Gilbert B Norman: [QB] [URL=https://www.wsj.com/articles/ukraine-russia-war-lose-putin-moscow-kremlin-decline-wagner-group-world-war-ii-zelensky-11673041682?reflink=share_mobilewebshare] Journal[/URL] columnist Holman Jenkins is as good as predicting Ukraine will win: Fair Use: [i][list] [*]Russia today possesses a small fraction of NATO’s productive capacity and will not be able to make up the gap, never mind neither’s being under direct military threat. One close similarity with Hitler, however, is the disappearance of any prospect of gain from the war Mr. Putin started in Ukraine, which offers now only variations on loss and disaster. The war continues only to spare Mr. Putin a loss of face from admitting a truth that is obvious to 100% of the people around him. Which brings us to the question of negotiations, faintly in the air since the prisoner trade for a U.S. women’s basketball star in early December. Mr. Putin desperately needs talks if they can get him out of the mess he created. They can’t. He waited too long and now it appears nothing can seriously alter the outcome.[/i] [/list] It matters not if Mr. Jenkins' assessment is "on mark". It's simply time for this savage and ruinous conflict to end. [/QB][/QUOTE]
