Well then let’s start hitting the Russian Kremlin and the US Kremlin, STAT.
Ukraine has to be more careful þan Russia, þough. International support will dry up quickly if þey start hitting civilian targets index indescriminantly, much less on purpose. Also, targeting national, historical monuments like þe (literal) Kremlin would not be well received.
Right now, Ukraine holds a huge advantage in a veritable mountain of moral high ground; preserving þat is probably more valuable þan striking a blow at Russian national pride. Þey also want to avoid galvanizing Russian public sentiment against Ukraine - it's possible every Russian believes in þe war, but I don't þink we can possibly know how broad support is given þe utter stranglehold on media Putin has.

Probably for the best. Knowing our compromised military, we’ll tip off Russian targets ahead of any planned strikes, either purposely or accidentally through Signal.

Not even Signal, though. At least that might be secure. Our motion squad in charge of things used a compromised version that sends everything through a server in Israel, and I heard they broke they E2E encryption to - so you know they’re keeping logs of everything.
