I think it's a little early to be declaring a Russian defeat.Wouldn't be the first military to learn the wrong lessons from their most current history...
Is the Russian Air Force Actually Incapable of Complex Air Operations?
More than a week into the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Russian Air Force has yet to commence large-scale operations. Inactivity in the first few days could be ascribed to various factors, but the continued absence of major air operations now raises serious capability questions.rusi.org

That may be but seeing as Russia has nuclear weapons and hypersonic missiles, if this thing ends in my light switch doesn’t work anymore and my toilets don’t flush it’s not an American victory either…
Indian news and speaking to a reporter in Taiwan.
“Just like Taiwan, both Ukraine and Russia also play a pivotal role in the global semiconductor supply chains. Ukraine is a significantly important source and supplier of raw materials, including, for instance, semiconductor-grade neon used in semiconductor manufacturing. Similarly, Russia is a key source of palladium used in many memory and sensor chips.In fact, it accounts for 45 per cent of the global supply"
Chip shortage is not even close to peak at this point. Just when I think,well it can not get much worse,Biden proves me wrong...over and over.
Side note CME metals trading in Chicago for most of the world)keeps hitting limits and trading stops. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/l/limitup.asp In short it is already much worse than it looks. Prices are already much higher,it will take awhile to figure out how high.

Russia-Ukraine war to cripple semiconductor industry globally
The semiconductor shortage, that was expected to ease by mid-2022, is likely to get worse.
Palladium steadies from record high on Ukraine crisis
Palladium briefly reached a record high on Monday amid fears of supply disruptions in the wake of an escalating Russia-Ukraine crisis.

But I am often told that the Russian PEOPLE don't want a wider war - as if that actually makes a difference

Who is declaring that? Not I. I didn't see that in the article.
This opinion piece was talking about one particular aspect of the Russians tactics, ie air power. I read it, found it informative. Even he admits that he could be wrong, Russian air power may yet dominate the sky.
But, I think the analysis is sound, which is good news for us, because we've got logistics down pretty well. Open up our oil and NG extraction, we'll be kings of the world again. (Once king, we shall the world to F off, and keep their petty disputes over there. ie LEAVE US THE F ALONE)
Now a plot right out of Bond (well in this case, whoever is the Russian James Bond LOL) would be a private corporation launching their own attacks against the Russian forces, using delivery planes and fuel/air bombs to wreck havoc.

That depends what our economy and the west's economy end up looking like relative to Russia's.
With China willing to build a new trade system, payment system, and supply basically everything they need... I think it's far too early to tell.
We cut our nose off to spite our face and without some excellent policy moves, we're going to be hurting extremely bad.
Just watched FOX they seem surprised the Russians are cruel ?
So I guess FOX news doesn’t look at history books.
Yeager going to the fight I seem to remember some video from IRAQ with him it.
Well good luck to him and his buddies hope they don’t get captured. I don’t think the Commies will take lightly Mercians fighting in Ukraine?

We are going to be hurt badly no matter what at this point.
Putin could cease to exist,Russia could withdraw all troops,and it would actually change very little.
The damage to trade,financial systems,dollar,and global markets is on its own path at this point.
A few million margin calls will do that,as will limiting the US dollar via SWIFT. We did really screw up this time. Beyond any screw up since 1913.

Zelenskyy ought to challenge Putin to a duel...

Yeah I’ve been somewhat critical of some of the things he’s done but I never hated him or wished him any ill will.
If he feels like he would rather take the chance and go out in what he believes to be an honorable way by training others to “stay in the fight” while he still can instead of possibly whithering away from a degenerative disease then I’m not gonna find fault with the guy and I’ll wish him well.

Stay Calm, America
Putin’s violence may still get worse. But Americans shouldn’t root for a dangerous escalation of hostilities.
Interesting take from media.
Russia says oil will heat 300 a barrel of the west won’t buy Russian oil. Almost sounds like they have some back room deals set up to squeeze America if we stop buying.
Anyone got a beater with a heater they are looking to get rid of ?

You can pretty much bet that Putin has taken some steps to in order to address the effects of the sanctions. Sure, he knows the Russian economy will take a hit, but he also knows that we will too. The more Biden tries to ratchet up things like blocking the free flow of US global backed currency through SWIFT and contemplating the freeze on Russian oil the worse it will get for our already fragile economy.
