Why is Aug 22 - 26 considered a concern for the Ukraine/Russia war?
How far into our warstocks are we dipping into to supply Ukraine?
So what's the Pentagon play here? Get rid of everything not nailed down to force Congress to buy the latest and greatest? Sounds good but there is risk in that. It should be obvious to all that peer/near peer warfare gobbles up ammo/vehicles/men at an alarming rate.INBOX: Pentagon has provided a breakdown of the capabilities included in the new $775 million weapons aid package for Ukraine. The latest deal is the 19th drawdown of equipment from DoD inventories.

Someone tried to assassinate "Putin's brain"?
Been watching the purge of top Russian leadership and its a concern. What is going on? Does full operational control of that country still exist? So many leaders in key roles have been killed that (in addition to this one) that my eyebrows are fully raised. A bit more on the attack.BREAKING: Car explosion that killed daughter of Aleksandr Dugin, who is often called "Putin's brain," was caused by a bomb, officials say

- On highway near Moscow
- Car exploded while driving
- Darya Dugina was killed
- Her father: Putin ally Alexander Dugin
- Dugin was supposed to be in the car
- Went with someone else at the last moment
One thing I sincerely hope is that these "issues" can't be traced back to a NATO country. If it can (and if outside forces are involved I have a few suspects) then this thing could get messy real quick and not in a good way.Sevastopol and the Black Sea Fleet are under attack for the third night. In Albania, soldiers were injured while stopping Russian spies from entering a military facility. In Russia, Dugin's daughter died in a probable assassination attempt against him. The night is tense.
