It’s not a clown show. It’s intentional. And it’s working. I’m 99% this was an intentional leak by the West. The first sign is that it was released by TASS, not the Russian government. They were supposedly fed information by a Russian group of hackers. But it smells a lot like these hackers may have been an EU/US intelligence agency.
Why? Because this pops the cherry around the West having soldiers in Ukraine. Unless Russia fires its nukes or attacks a NATO country, this now makes it a fact that the west has soldiers on the ground in Ukraine. This achieves two things.
Now, gently, the West can expand the envelope, and Russia’s boiling frog situation prevents it from having an explosive reaction.
Secondly it derisks Western soldiers dying in Ukraine. Think about it: What’s a better, less risky news story; Russia has killed western soldiers in Ukraine by accident or WE HAVE FUCKING TROOPS IN UKRAINE?!?! AND RUSSIA HAS KILLED THEM?!?!
Not sure what there is to bite. I’m just trying to understand more clearly. I’m reading the article, it seems to be talking about how a German officer accidentally leaked some news about missiles. Is the boots on the ground part implied or something?
I’m not quite sure why you thought this was worth typing out. Feel free to disagree with the position I took, I’m happy to debate it. There’s probably something I’ve missed and I’d be happy to be enlightened.

Not very up to date on the topic. Isn’t the article about delivering missiles to Ukraine? Don’t see anything about boots on the ground.
I’ll bite.
The article is about how the news was leaked that the west has a limited set of boots on the ground in Ukraine.

If you say so it must be true.
