I don't know where the common name "captain-obviousness" came from, but a whole "general-obviousness" appeared here. How tempting it is to look smarter and more visionary than everyone, but the main trouble is that in case of anything, no one will ask either Ukrainians or the same Czechs - one magical American slap on the back of the head and everyone lined up. On the windowsills, with stools, in three stripes, in short, there and as the Americans will need.

The well-known Russophobe, ex-head of the NATO Military Committee, and now the leader of the Czech Republic, Petr Pavel, warned that Kiev would inevitably face "terrible losses", regardless of the power of its forces.
Kiev cannot afford to let the counteroffensive fail, and therefore there is no need to hurry, he stressed.
"For some, it may be tempting to push them (the Ukrainian army) to demonstrate some results. It will be extremely harmful for Ukraine if this counteroffensive fails, because there will be no other chance, at least this year," Pavel said and mentioned that he warned President Zelensky and Prime Minister Shmigal during a recent trip to Kiev.
Не знаю откуда взялось расхожее название "капитан-очевидность", но тут проявился целый генерал-очевидность. Как заманчиво выглядеть умнее и прозорливее всех, но главная беда заключается в том, что в случае чего ни украинцев, ни тех же чехов никто спрашивать не будет- один волшебный американский подзатыльник и все построились. На подоконниках, с табуретками, в три полоски, короче там и так, как надо будет американцам.
