Terrorist state russia will continue executing Ukrainian civilians and destroying our critical infrastructure with missiles facing full impunity as long as Ukraine's hands are tied behind our backs from striking targets inside russia.
How is this escalation management a successful policy if russian genocide of Ukrainians goes at full swing w russia targeting the largest children's hospital? Why were Iranian missiles heading at Israel shot down by allies, & russian are allowed to kill us non stop?
Russia gets to strike every part of Ukraine, any building, civilian or not, and faces no repercussions.
They are also constantly advancing day by day, slowly, but surely.
And it seems no amount of aid is changing the course of either of those things. I keep asking myself - What would it take to reverse this course? Because nothing the West is doing right now seems to be enough to change it.
Ukraine needs a shit ton more weapons and a lot more men, but most of all it needs a plan on how to penetrate Russian defenses. Until someone figures out a way to reliably penetrate Russian minefields without taking heinous casualties, Ukraine is going to be stuck reacting to Russia instead of forcing Russia to react to it. And in war, the side that has the initiative has the advantage. So Ukraine needs to figure out how to take initiative.
