It wouldn't surprise me a bit to see him get the Mussolini treatment.

Ah yes the "appeal to common sense" argument. Where facts and logic don't support a bald assertion, " common sense" is often pressed into service. But it does not work, especially because the trouble with commen sense is that it is not so common, a fact observed in 1788.

It's common sense to accept that there's no reason to die for a lost cause. Consequently, it's common sense to believe that there's more than a few Ukranians doing what's necessary to end the carnage,...including giving information to the Russians about where all the weaponry from the west is being stored.

The much touted Ukranian offensive is going to get a *lot* of Ukranians killed.

No weapons,..no Ukranian offensive,..no massive kill off of the Ukranian military.

Common sense.
