*Dreizin: Friday morning (U.S. ET) post 2 of 3: Up to five F-16s already delivered to the Ukraine, just in time as Russia has finally won the air war, destroyed ~2/3 of the Ukraine’s remaining functional fixed-wing fleet in October, w/ precision attacks on airfields but mostly w/ new extended-range (up to 380 or 400km) 40N6 missiles for S400 Triumph air defense system, guided to target by Russian DRLO (AWACS) aircraft, a new practice; the Ukraine is down to ~10-12 airworthy craft (exclusive of F-16s delivered last 24-48 hours.)  Also, 16 Storm Shadow cruise missiles downed or “lost” over Crimea or adjacent waters in last ~48 hours, as Russia has finally “cracked”  their guidance & learned to deflect them in numbers. Meanwhile, Russia “hoarding” cruise missiles to turn off lights this winter, under cover of “Gaza genocide” & as GLOBOHOMO air defense munitions for the Ukraine, finally run out. Last winter, the Ukraine got a sudden “reprieve”, w/ Russian bombardment of power transmission grid stopping in mid-January after presumably some behind-the-scenes economic deal w/ GLOBOHOMO. This time, may not be so lucky.

:*Comment: the delivery of five F-16s to Ukraine in no way can be considered a game changer. It is simply a way to learn more about the [[S-400]] missile defense system and how the F-16 stacks up against it. Last week the S-400 destroyed 24 Ukrainian Mig 29s in 5 days - more than half of what remained of the Ukrainian airforce after the opening days of the [[SMO]]. Whoever steps into one of these F-16s is a kamikaze pilot on a suicide mission (unless he's an idiot unable to read and write). The purpose of this losing effort in a losing war is simple to see - after the five F-16s get destroyed, the [[military industrial complex]] and [[Pentagon]] can say to [[Congress]] and the American people, "See, we need more funding for the [[F-35]] fighter cause the [[F-16]] is obsolete."

*Dreizin: Beginning of the Endgame: Zelensky-Zaluzhny primetime pro wrestling match gets WICKED REAL, as police & state/quasi-state media say Ukro-Napoleon Zaluzhny’s aide-de-camp, Gennadii Chistiakov, blown up while playing w/ a grenade at his home near Kiev, while his kids were in the house. Police even went so far as to release photo of several grenades at his home, lying on a surface, next to a half-visible SYRINGE (!!!), cuz everyone knows junkies play w/ grenades. But, the syringe looks to be broad & of plastic, like something you’d feed liquid medicine to your kids with. Aaaaanyway… Zaluzhny immediately said that his aide was celebrating his b-day & was killed (read: ASSASSINATED) by explosives hidden in a liquor-&-shot-glass gift set. Then, Zaluzhny’s office released a short video of him saying that his aide was killed, & “Don’t gift me anything, not for New Year’s, not just because you feel like it.” (Cannot make this up!!! Stop the planet, I need a break!!!) HEY GLOBOHOMO, HOW’S THAT COUNTER-SUCK-FENSIVE GOING???

*Dreizin: Update to last post: The “shot glasses” from the gift set, were in the form of grenades, & as I understand, intended to be opened by pulling on the pin. Well, turns out, one or more of them was “real”, that is, really packed with explosive charge. Not only was the aide killed, his son is in serious or critical condition in hospital. // No, we’re not looking at the possibility of a “classic” military coup, as ANYTHING that happens, would happen with Uncle Sam’s approval (if not active involvement), as in Vietnam 1963. It’s NOT going to be decided in the Ukraine. Perhaps to this end, clearly, we’ve seen Zaluzhny marketing himself as a mentally adequate, “understands the stalemate”, negotiation-capable alternative to “we’re still gonna win”, prima donna wackjob Zelensky. Zaluzhny, BTW & FWIW, is scheduled to travel for meetings at the Pentagon soon.
