The Barest of a Bluff?

  I read a piece yesterday....via the Brit Telegraph.

The blunt story?  Vladimir Putin could perhaps attack a NATO country within weeks to test the alliance, US intelligence has warned.

So this forecast centers on a 'test'....either a cyber attack or a land incursion....over the next two years.  Who dug up the forecast?  WSJ.

On my BS-meter (1-to-10)....it's a rock-solid '9'.

Putin having the weapons/hardware inventory to conduct such an operation?  Zero.  If you gave Putin II (the guy standing there in 2046)....maybe a 50-50 situation.  But today?  They lack manpower and hardware.

Who gave the WSJ this BS?  I'm guessing some outsider group to the Pentagon....or some pro-Ukraine group in DC.
