Russian invasion of Ukraine

[goalmole]

Putin's escalating tonight. He's gone so far in he'll obliterate the place to claim it. West has to put up tomorrow or we mark the cards for the next generation.

No way is the West going to put boots on the ground, if that is what you mean.

 

[SWP's back]

I just feel NATO left the door wide open for the Russians to invade.

I also comment on things I have no clue about sometimes.

 

[SWP's back]

It wasn't in Russia neither but it probably will be soon, and then Putin will turn his attention to the Baltic states.

Ffs no he won’t because they are in NATO. JESUS CHRIST.

Kin ell! A little harsh wouldn’t you say?

And the award for understatement of the day goes too…. Actually on this thread it’s probably not going to be in the top 10

Not meaning for this to come across as arsey but is there any chance of asking for posts to have links or sources attached ?

Why bother, even links and posts cannot be verified, nearly all the eyecatching social media posts and pictures from non independent sources have been false/footage from somewhere else

Best sticking to Clive on the roof for info not the internet

So much disinformation about the war, very difficult to know what news to trust

And that would be a good thing?

Well they wouldn’t get any would they.

Worth noting that a modern world nuclear war wouldn’t come close to wiping out the human race and definitely wouldn’t wipe out all vegetation. Though I am pleased to presently be living on a large island that’s made up of 99% rain forest and zero military targets.

We’re obviously reading different things.
I’ve see a few things of late that would suggest the opposite, especially with the impact of a nuclear winter.

Irrespective, we’re probably in agreement that if the US and Russia each released 6,000 Nuclear bombs, there will be Billions instantaneously killed and a fair few dying thereafter.

IOC have just confirmed Russian and Belarusian athletes cannot take part in The Paralympics after yesterday saying they can under a neutral flag

This 40 mile convoy. Why isn’t it being attacked/shelled etc?

Bigger alligators nearer the boat possibly

Presumably because Russia would still be paying for their travel and maintenance costs and would be trumping any success as being one for mother Russia. This neutral flag shit is just a way round chucking teams out without actually doing anything.

Yep I thought they would have the migs from Germany by now

If I were a Russian athlete and really wanted to make a stand, I’d apply for Ukrainian citizenship and compete under their flag.

Might be a while Germany doesn't have any :-(
