I’m surprised the mighty Russian army on show haven’t destroyed the poor little out gunned Ukraine in a couple of days.

Or more accurately ‘we have acquiesced to all of America’s demand on usage’ - ie no destroying oil facilities deep inside Russia

There’s a big difference in hitting a ‘small’ terminal with a drone and sending an ATACMS to Primorsk or Novorossiysk which I have no doubt is a red line for the US as those terminals going offline would cause a big price spike close to an election.
