BF>> Putin, after 10 days of Kursk catastrophe, summons Stalin's
BF>> ghost: Stalin: "What's happened?" Putin: "Nazis are at Kursk!
BF>> My army is beaten! What should I do?" Stalin: "Do like me in
BF>> 1943. Send the best Ukrainian troops to the front, and ask the
BF>> US for arms!"
ak> IMHO, this Ukraine invasion in Kursk region is politically profitable
