Russian invasion of Ukraine

[urban genie]

Let’s hope there are millions more where those already on the streets have come from!

Young Russians WANT TO BE FREE AND EUROPEAN, so let’s try to help them!

Even the ones in Siberia, Vladivodstok and the 6.3 million asians (23% of the population in 77% of russias land mass) living east of the Ural mountains

Newspapers should remove these pay walls, in times like this they need to be free

Newspapers should and should fact check better, several have posted misinformation picked up off social media of both russian and ukrainian sources found to be old footage and even from video games.

How fucking wild is it that many of us are just sat going about our day, while checking the internet every ten minutes for updates about a potentially world ending scenario kicking off? Ffs. No wonder I've had a permanent tension headache for a few days.

Yes it's surreal but then every dangerous situation is. Even more surreal is that in all these situations there is usually a deranged psychopath in charge of a country causing death and destruction that nobody steps in and stops. There's probably lots of his people thinking, "This guy is nuts his actions could destroy the world and us with it" but nobody has the courage to remove him from power.

The size of that convoy heading for Kyiv, jeez.
How long do we realistically think Ukraine can hold out if/when Russia really ramps it up ?

I was born in 76, so until 1994 I lived under the spectre of possible nuclear war.

This is old hat, now as with then, if it happens not much I can do, but I still need to eat and pay the gas bill so not worth worrying about till I hear the sirens go off.

Hopefully the bombs land on my head so I don’t feel a thing.

The Russians will eventually break through and enter Kyiv, but it will be house to house urban street fighting and massive casualties

Need to bomb the convoy.

It might be a dud. You’ll have a right lump if that’s the case!

Take over all those Russian holiday properties from Torrevieja to Turkey, then the 'ordinary Russians might sit up.

And may I add use them to home Ukraine refugees
