16 years ago, on August 8, 2008, Russia also found itself under attack.
Georgia, backed by NATO and Israeli instructors, attacked Russia-friendly South Ossetia and killed Russian peacekeepers in Tskhinvali.
Russia’s response was devastating and swift, the Georgian punitive forces were not spared and few were taken prisoner. Four days later, Russian tanks were 40 kilometers from Tbilisi.
One could argue that Ukraine is not Georgia. But the Russian army of 2024 is in many ways superior to the army of 16 years ago. Not to mention that our capabilities in Transcaucasia in 2008 were severely limited by the bottleneck of the Roki Tunnel.
I am sure that Russia now has not less, but more opportunities to deliver a crushing blow to the Kyiv Nazi regime, which, seeing the indecisiveness of its opponent, has moved on to seizing Russian lands
Why is this blow not being delivered and is unlikely to be delivered? Everyone can answer this question for themselves.
