Wishful thinking?

• trasz 4y ago
  Unlikely - so far all the predictions regarding Russian army checked out.

  Almost all of it is descriptions of past facts. The troops were where Galeev suggests back in 1917 and the empire did topple, etc. Putin may wish he had more officers available to lead the new troops, he may need more, but the deaths are facts. Apparently Russia sent about 20 generals to Ukraine, half have been killed, perhaps a bit more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Russian_generals_killed_during_the_2022_invasion_of_Ukraine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Russian_generals_kille...

    4 confirmed, lots of claimed, 3 rebutted. This is definitely a wishful thinking.

      If the Russians don't confirm something, then it's definitely wishful thinking? But even the 400-odd people who drowned on the Moskva haven't been confirmed by the Russians.
