If I'm not mistaken, that's the guy who wrote the article that caused quite a bit of discussion earlier today. Mostly over his omission of possibly Russian supply line issues and criticism of American intelligence in bus analysis. Additionally, I believe Kherson has been fighting for several days so I'm not sure if that means it "fell so quickly."
Regardless, he is right that the lane road to Odessa is now open. But it's about 300 miles according to him. That's a lot of fuel to burn to get there.
Minimal fighting? Kherson fought fiercely for days and has changed hands more than once already. I was tracking that myself. They were the first city to actually repel Russia from the first day.
Always question everything. HUGE advocate of this. That being said, there is an absolute bias in that article. Damn near spin in my opinion. Weird. He is flat out ignoring several important elements which shoot holes in his theory. Easily. Too easily. Enough to laugh it off out of hand.
He may be right, and the Ukes fall. But anyone can flip a coin. His analysis sucks. Which is interesting to me because he is an editor for the Long War site. That has always been a pretty solid site in my experience. Weird
