I've wondered how much damage was done to the Kerch Bridge in Crimea.

Now we know. Apparently a lot to the train bridge and enough to stop trucks from crossing on the highway.

Now I wonder where that Russian warship is.

Slava Ukraini.

2. I figured as much

My first thought that any crossing was for show, just to make it look like Putin hadn't been kicked in the gut.

3. Thanks. I've been wondering.

I think this situation is perfect. Better than taking out the bridge entirely.

What is that you might ask?

Remember the writing of Sun Tzu in The Art of War.

When you surround an army, leave an outlet free. Do not press a desperate foe too hard.

This does not mean that the enemy is to be allowed to escape. The object, as Tu Mu puts it, is "to make him believe that there is a road to safety, and thus prevent his fighting with the courage of despair." Tu Mu adds pleasantly: "After that, you may crush him."

4. Made me smile.

Almost broke my face.

I so trust the Biden admin and decry Austin but would like to understand why Ukraine can’t attack Russia. Help me out DU. They are not part of NATO so how would it expand the conflict to NATO countries? The attack on infrastructure is rough.

5. Retaliatory nukes.
