Fox News chief political analyst Brit Hume explains why President Donald Trump should not remove himself from the peace negotiations between Russia and Ukraine and more on 'Special Report.'
When Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, many experts predicted Kyiv’s quick fall. When Ukraine pushed back overextended Russian forces, the same experts confidently said that Russia’s mass — a population almost four times larger than Ukraine — would certainly grind Ukraine down. Triumph for Putin was inevitable. But, an odd thing happened on the way to Russia’s victory parade: Ukraine is outfighting Russia.
Why is that? A big factor comes out of the grinding trenches of Ukraine, where a Russian war blogger known as "Atomic Cherry" recently laid bare a stark truth about Moscow’s persistent military woes. As translated and analyzed by an OSINT enthusiast, the blogger laments how Ukraine’s forces have outmaneuvered Russia’s rigid, Soviet-style bureaucracy in the drone war.
Ukrainian commanders, he notes, have spun up alternative structures to pull resources from the traditional military to innovate rapidly. Meanwhile, Russia’s monolithic Air Force and Navy fumble with technologies that should be in their wheelhouse, like unmanned aerial vehicles and naval drones. The result? Ukraine’s loose system fosters flexibility, while Russia’s top-down control stifles it.
The blogger doesn't name it, but he's describing the essence of Col. John Boyd’s OODA Loop theory — Observe, Orient, Decide, Act. This cycle, in which speed in processing information and adapting trumps sheer firepower, has been America’s edge in warfare for decades.
