We are seeing not a frozen conflict, but a frozen defeat. Putin cannot win, but he refuses to accept the L. At each point where his defeat has been defined, he has chosen escalation. This gives the mistaken impression that the war could have been ended sooner. That is a false spectre.

WIRED has tracked thousands of US military & intel personnel coming & going from classified sites, incl. NSA hubs & nuclear vaults. We know where they sleep, what they eat, and which brothels they visit.
It's an ocean of blackmail & national secrets within reach of every spy agency in the world.

I made the same argument in the National Interest nationalinterest.org/blog/buzz/en...
Ukr disarmed in 1994; it is now de facto getting sacrificed to invasion by a nuclear aggressor w the argument: "we gotta worry abt not starting a nuclear war, so we can't arm Ukr conventionally too much". If Ukr loses, there'll be nuclear proliferation because no one would want to be the next Ukr.
