    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                    I'd concentrate on the refineries. Oil and gas are Russia's economic lifeblood.

                      Good point. Somewhere, perhaps in a link I posted a while ago, there was a comment that Ukraine's attacks on the refineries has cut Russian oil processing by 13% or so.

                      I also saw a story that the Biden administration has cautioned that Ukraine should not strike targets outside its borders.

                                    Ukrainians just might have hit something more than a routine weapons factory. Could have a negative effect on the Kremlin in a large predominantly Muslim region.

                                        I saw that in The Moscow Times this morning as well. Goes to show you that in the Russian army anyone’s son will do.

                                        I hope he does not die well fighting for Putin or his cause.
