yeah that's not good to do....and guess what israel does in response
Israel reportedly leaning toward sending defensive military aid to Ukraine
Officials expected to support sending defensive equipment only at symbolic levels in bid to keep Russia ties intact; Israel recently agreed to send defensive aid to civilian teams

so likely senerios:

The only way that Putin can win is if Zelensky makes a settlement.
Russia’s campaign in Ukraine has exposed the ineptness of the Russian armed forces. All their operations thus far have failed, their technology either doesn’t work or is thirty years behind the systems owned by the western powers. Every day that Ukraine resists is a nail in Russia’s coffin. Russia cannot maintain a long war, it is losing too much equipment and men and it doesn’t have the ability to replace them.
The Rouble is being artificially held up, the Russian stock market has been banned from selling, foreign business assets are being stolen. These short term funding attempts will run out in a matter of months and Russian will struggle to raise capital to rebuild, they will have bitten the hand that feeds them. No one will invest in them twice.
The money Russia earns from fossil fuels will diminish as the west gradually reduces their dependence on Russian oil. That will not return. In the long term Russia is already screwed. Financially Russia is small fry compared to NATO. The economies of the united democracies can outbuy him a hundred times. They have more money, more stuff and more people. On top of that Russia is bleeding experts, the young professionals are running for the door.
In the short term Putin needs a military victory but it’s hard to see how that can be achieved now that western arms and training are arriving in the war zone. The mud (as I previously mentioned) is slowing the Russian advance. Moving in the Spring was simply foolish.
Russian troops are dissatisfied and demoralised. Generals are either in prison or in the ground, every time a Russian HQ sets up it gets hit (No one is asking why?). The ships in the Black Sea have withdrawn out of range of Odessa for fear of Neptune Missiles.
If Zelensky holds his nerve and stays in the fight for another ten weeks Russia will be unable to hold Ukraine or the Black Sea. They will threaten terrible consequences, they will stamp their feet, they will look to save face but it will be too late.
The best hope for Putin is to take his troops home and salvage what he can, but he won’t. He will send his armies into a futile battle and drag his country back a hundred years. His brutal actions might be the catalyst that finally finishes the Russian Empire once and for all.
Slava Ukraine!
Slava Zelensky!

Russia’s Propaganda Textbooks Go up in Flames in Spate of Mystery Fires
Anti-Ukrainian textbooks published by an education company with ties to Vladimir Putin burst into flames early Tuesday when a warehouse on the outskirts of Moscow became the latest site to be destroyed amid a spate of mysterious fires across the country.
Video released by Russia's Emergencies Ministry shows the warehouse of Prosveshcheniye (“Reconnaissance” in English) publishing house completely ablaze.
More than 100 firefighters were required to bring the 8-acre blaze under control, and even then it took four and a half hours, according to local media reports.
"When firefighters arrived, the whole area was on fire," a witness was quoted as saying by Russia's TASS news agency.
Citing a source in the Emergencies Ministry, TASS said the fire started right in an area housing textbooks and other printed materials. According to REN TV, the burned premises were rented out by Prosveshcheniye and another company called Stock Trading, which stored equipment on the premises.
The publisher, whose board is reportedly headed by Putin pal and former judo partner Arkady Rotenberg, recently made headlines for a decision to remove Ukraine from schoolchildren's textbooks in the wake of the February 24 Russian invasion.
"Our task is to pretend that Ukraine simply doesn't exist," said a publisher of the independent news agency MediaZona about the campaign.
The cause of the warehouse inferno was not immediately known, but it followed a series of fires on Russian territory near the border with Ukraine.
Ukraine spy boss declares war will end with Putin's death
Explosions were reported in the Russian city of Belgorod just hours before the bonfire, while a day earlier a railway bridge in the Kursk region was destroyed. Fires also broke out in oil storage facilities in Bryansk, from which Russian troops in Ukraine are believed to have drawn their supplies.
In April, Russian authorities announced that a fire at a Russian military research institute northwest of Moscow killed 17 people.
Authorities said preliminary information suggested faulty wiring may have been to blame for the incident.
Russia has blamed Ukraine for many of the other fires, but Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy denied that Ukrainian forces were behind it.
His advisor Mykhailo Podolyak called it karma and described it as an "absolutely natural process".

Valentyna Romanenko - Tuesday, 3 May 2022, 00:10 On Monday, 2 May, Ukrainian Air Defence destroyed eight aggressors' drones, one of which is worth $7 million. Source: Yurii Ihnat, Air Force Command spokesman, on Facebook Quote: "The aggressors' manned aircraft did not actually enter the range of Ukrainian Air Defence on 2 May. Instead, the enemy continues to launch missile strikes and to increase the presence of unmanned aerial vehicles in Ukrainian airspace, which provide targeting instructions to artillery, carry out air reconnaissance and fire correction.
On 2 May, the Air Defence of the Air Force and the Land Forces shot down eight aerial targets - one 'Forpost' and seven 'Orlan-10' UAVs. It is worth noting that the 'Forpost' drone, shot down by the antiaircraft missile troops unit of 'Pivden' (South) Task Force, is an expensive device valued at $7 million.
This is a licensed Israeli copy of the 'Searcher' UAV (its basic version is capable of reconnaissance at altitudes up to 5 km for 16 hours with a range of up to 400 km - ed.).

70 year old Hero ……
Olena Barsukova, "Ukrainska Pravda. Zhyttia" - TUESDAY, 3 MAY 2022 In Motyzhyn, Kyiv region, a 70-year-old woman "aimed" the artillery of the Armed Forces of Ukraine at Russian equipment. She reported the invaders' location to Ukrainian soldiers.
This story was told by a serviceman on the Facebook page of the Territorial Defence of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The pensioner helped the Ukrainian Armed Forces to destroy several dozen units of enemy equipment. Unfortunately, the woman's heroism cost her life.
"She had a remote house in the village and she saw the equipment moving. She went out to the enemy, counted the pieces of equipment, then explained to her son on the phone what she saw. There were cases when she would go out, get lost, come back and count again," said the Ukrainian defender. The pensioner was helping the Ukrainian military for more than 2 weeks. During this time she recorded "Buk" anti-aircraft missile systems - 2 units of this equipment were destroyed. The woman also helped the artillery destroy a radar station that was jamming communications.
"Unfortunately, the "orcs" [Russian soldiers] realised who was doing it and razed this house to the ground. She (the woman - ed.) died. When they bombed it, they drove their tanks over where the house had stood," the military man said. According to him, information provided by the elderly resident of the Kyiv region had helped the military. "It was thanks to her, to be honest, that they did not move on. They were able to reach Yasnohorodka, , but their reconnaissance got kicked in the teeth there and left. Then they didn't dig trenches in other villages," the man added.

Posted today in NPR's Morning Edition. An interview with an military analyst regarding the current state of Russian military capabilities.
A closer look at some of Russia's military failures in the war on Ukraine
www.npr.org
Jeff Edmonds is a senior analyst at the Center for Naval Analyses. He previously focused on Russia and Central Asia as a member of the National Security Council. Jeff, welcome to the show.
JEFF EDMONDS: Thanks so much for having me.
MARTINEZ: All right. The British say that a quarter of Russian units have been rendered combat ineffective. So if that's true, what does that mean for the war?
EDMONDS: I think what it means is that, you know, the operation that we're seeing now in the east, many military analysts believe that this is the last large operation that the Russian military is able to conduct right now. I mean, it really is staggering. You know, we often think that, you know, 10 to - you know, 20% to 30% losses, a unit is no longer able to conduct offensive operations, and that's where we think the Russian military is right now. And we're seeing this operation in the east, and it's really not producing a lot of results, and that's probably likely a result of these staggering losses.
MARTINEZ: So if this is a last operation for Russia, does it suggest that maybe their war in Ukraine, in particular, where it's focused in the east right now, might be something that they might dig in on?
EDMONDS: They might dig in on it, but there's a real solid chance that the Russian military will not be able to achieve even these revised strategic goals of taking over these two provinces in the east. It's not clear at all that they'll actually be able to, you know, break through and control both regions.
MARTINEZ: So it could be something that is not as prolonged as maybe we thought.
EDMONDS: It may not be. I mean, one big question is what do the Ukrainians want to do? Do they want to try to push the Russians completely out of the east? Or do they want to just push the Russians back to, you know, kind of where they were when they came into this conflict, which would actually be a staggering defeat for the Russians?
Edmonds went on to speculate that Putin might want to drag NATO into this mess and would do so by firing missiles into one of the NATO countries near Russia, such as Poland. It would be an escalation that would raise the stakes of NATO's support of Ukraine. That kind of act would force the alliance to choose to either stop sending aid to the Ukrainian military or go all in.
Edmonds doesn't think Russia will use nukes.
He also says Putin has strong support inside Russia for now.

I can't believe how little Western Europe cares about Putin being on their doorstep. Hardly even helping Ukraine with hardware making Zelensky continually beg America for what those in the crosshairs should be giving freely to- Poland only one country away.
