Russian invasion of Ukraine

It sailed when he started an internet war on the West at the time we were trying to make Russia a friendly ally and even possibly a member of NATO itself. When Russia kept refusing to turn up to summits and conferences. When he proved Russia to be an untrustworthy country rather than a possible ally, and had to be kicked out of the G8 when they invaded Ukraine. When Putin has said that the Bolsheviks robbed Russia of Russian land when they relinquished Ukraine and when he has said he doesn’t recognise the sovereignty of Ukraine.

He has never been a man to reason or negotiate with, and never will be. He’s an evil dictator. He has never had any recognition or respect for Ukraine.
Can't say I disagree with any of that. Let's hope the twat gets assassinated sooner rather than later.
 
EU GDP? 15.59 trillion USD
US GDP? 22 trillion - roughly

GDP of Russia? $1.7 trillion

(Incidentally, Italy is $2.1 trillion)

Since GDP is a pretty good proxy for spending power, i.e. how much money China can get off us, why on EARTH would they want to side with Russia? Surely China hold the key to this crisis. I am convinced if we get China fully on board, bending Putin's ear directly, this nightmare can end.
Hopefully!

But I’m not sure his ear is for bending. I’m worried that he’s too far gone, that he’s surrounded himself with too many “yes”men and likeminded/brainwashed sycophants for too long and detached himself away from reality and nobody to temper his temper or tell him “no”… with Covid making him paranoid and acting very strangely (the long tables thing is a sure sign of being a total nutter!)

Maybe a nice cup of Polonium tea is the only answer. Or Novichok on his toothbrush.

You have to admit, it would be more than apt.
 
Some of these Ukrainian soldiers are fucking brave/completely mad.

Running up to tank columns and firing a rocket launcher at them, mental stuff, I won't post the video.

Can't believe how exposed these tank/vehicle columns are, not equipped for the terrain and no air support. Makes me think that the lads in them don't really know what they're doing but exposes how poor the generals are as well.
Imagine if it was a Nato force they were facing . Their jet fighter bombers and apache helicoptor gunships would have a field day . Not only is dinosaur Putin living in the last century , seems his generals and their tactics are also .

Meanwhile waging an information war on the west. Scottish Independence, Brexit referendum, US Election, all targets.
