Too long and too much to post, but very informative. It’s very worth a look!
“The new Russian campaign also seems to have a punitive, almost medieval, aspect to it. The Russians appear to be punishing the Ukrainian people for daring to stand against the Russian bear, while hoping they capitulate. ‘Hope’ is a bad course of action in war”.

It’s dangerous. I don’t like it.
Russia elite and far from only oligarchs, evacuating Moscow. Why ? The question is why. This is a bad signal.
This is Total War mode, I don’t like it. I don’t understand it either. Are they expecting possible nuclear strikes ? If so, why. The only reason strategic strikes, nuclear or non-nuclear, would hit Moscow is if Russia struck NATO directly with nukes. Are they planning to win the Ukrainian war with tactical nuclear warheads ? I don’t get this.
It is also possible that some have fled out of fear of “Putin’s internal purges”. We will see.
To the Ural mountains ? Only some went for Dubai. They could be summoned for a meeting at the Wolves Den there, but it is still note worthy. So many flights to the Urals.
NATO isn’t nuking anyone. the result of a global nuclear was has only one outcome and that’s the near total loss of life on earth.
You don’t need to tell me that NATO will not nuke Russia first. I obviously know that.
