"Despite the fact that Putin was obviously extremely angry about the breakthrough in Kursk Oblast, he did not make emotional decisions, so we did not see the strategy of ‘quick, grab everyone and send them to retake Kursk’.”

I don't know if this is just propaganda, an idiot, or the actual thinking behind the operation. Because if it is, then hinging your plan on having the enemy make dumb decisions is itself rather stupid.

Doing stupid things hoping that Russia would make some obvious blunder has basically been the theme for the past 2 years.
