Anticipating Attacks, Russia has announced the mobilization of 300,000 reservists, who already have a military specialty, from prior training and service. They will receive further training, and many will not be in combat duty, based on their specialties. This is apparently for next spring, and it is explicitly a preparation for major attacks by NATO forces, or Ukrainian forces with extensive foreign augmentation and supply.
Adding " to "Poland" indicates to me that you are skeptical about the western Ukraine/Galicia region being "Polish". This is a historically Polish territory, taken over by USSR after the WWII. My mother's family had a home and land there for generations. After the war, as my mother often told me - a group of Soviet solders showed up at the door one day and told them they have 2 hrs to "get their s**t out of the house. Hundreds of thousands of Poles were loaded up on cattle wagons and traveled for weeks to western Poland where they were ordered to settle. In mid 1990 Russian government paid restitutions to Polish families, including mine, for the land and homes they stole. That was Galicia: cities, towns and villages historically Polish - language, culture, architecture.
If that part of "Ukraine" goes back to Poland, it will be a positive end to the injustice that was inflicted on Poles by the Soviet post war regime.
Other than this remark - I agree with you on your assesment of this proxy mess.
The Ukraine most likely will be wiped off the map: Russia will claim most of the territory, Poland will take Galicia and there is a smaller southern part that in my opinion will go to Moldovia. My Moldovian friend says they are already talking about annexing parts of that region.
The means are ends. Russia belongs to the club. Step by step the Western puppets give Russia every excuse for the SMO, the annexing of choice parts of Ukraine, and forcing Europe into rapid deindustrialization. Morgenthau would be delighted except with the Russian Hegemony. I see no white hats. I hear a lot of propaganda mainly "hooray for our Salvation.". Or something like domino's are falling in Europe so NATO must protect poor Ukraine.
The SMO is the gift that keeps giving to the happy Cannon Kings of Earth. Thanks team War for caring. Can we build enthusiasm for a little nuclear action in the Blood Lands as Russia slowly grinds it's way into winter? Can we expect NATO no longer hiding but openly rescuing the Western Ukraine with Polish help? Will China be the huge winner of Eurasian trade and resource exploitation? Can the Ottoman Empire be reborn to reclaim the lands lost? What will Israel do without the Ukraine? Russia is still collaborating. As Bourne wrote during WW1-"War is the health of the State.". Well the UN is no State. The WHO wants to be a State. One or one hundred nuclear detonations in the fog of war might do what the Great War did not. Enough cold, hunger, industry abandoned, dead, and infrastructure breakdown could enable a new illness arising and to save the world the belligerents agree WHO takes charge.
