Global Events & Politics Überthread

The GCHQ director will say Mr Putin's advisers are afraid to tell him the truth about what is unfolding in Ukraine, according to an advance copy of the speech.

But "what's going on and the extent of these misjudgments must be crystal clear to the regime".
 
Anyone else surprised how poorly prepared the Russian military?

I am loath to quote myself but
still surprised .

Surprised also they never took into account how hard, had they been militarily successful, winning the peace.

In 2005, Human Events published a list of the "Ten Most Harmful Books of the 19th and 20th Centuries:"[31]

The Communist Manifesto, by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels
Mein Kampf, by Adolf Hitler
Quotations from Chairman Mao Zedong, by Mao Zedong
Kinsey Reports, by Alfred Kinsey
Democracy and Education, by John Dewey
Das Kapital, by Karl Marx
The Feminine Mystique, by Betty Friedan
The Course in Positive Philosophy, by Auguste Comte
Beyond Good and Evil, by Friedrich Nietzsche
General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money, by John Maynard Keynes
Being voted on by two or more of their judges, twenty additional books received "honorable mention", including The Origin of Species, by Charles Darwin; Unsafe at Any Speed, by Ralph Nader; and Silent Spring, by Rachel Carson.

I must confess "Das Kapital" was rough sledding. It definitely caused some cognitive damage. Fortunately, one of my friends had a ready supply of psychedelic meds to help me get through it. Hopefully General Milley hasn't opened his mind to any of these baleful influences.
