I've always considered the readings of Pattra to be superior to that of the Crystal Ball.
My Pattra tells me that this war will last for a long time since it is obvious that the big boss of NATO would like to see a military victory over Russia. What this means is that the use of Stingers and Javelins will be utilized to the highest extent possible to create stalemate and ultimately victory. My Pattra cannot at this time predict so far ahead but I do sensed that in the minds of the politicians on both sides of the new divide want nothing less than victory rather than a political compromise. Zelensky is caught between a rock and a hard place. He speaks everything we want to hear except to give into Putin's demand of never to allow NATO on Ukrainian soil. NATO says they're out to stop Russia's push westward. Russia says they're out to stop NATO from pushing further East. This is big debate and the war won't stop until we have compromise or one is victorious of the other militarily.
