the escalation in rhetoric from the NATO side worries me

Comrade Kev, does the escalation in rhetoric from Russia and their invasion of a sovereign country and murdering citizens worry you more than NATO?

 

[Chewbacca]

I hope that there are alot of protests against the Governments unwilling to impose real sanctions.

Full credit to the Georgians.



The key is the capital...and having those territories near the water so they can ship troops in...along with pushing the Russian border into Ukraine further and further as it seems theyre doing.

If Kiev can hold out until Monday then the Ukrainians have a chance.



Precisely. You need a horrible unpredictable leader to go up against Putin.

Talking wont phase him, have to be evil to beat evil.

We didn’t have to be evil to beat Hitler.

And would Trump win an election against Biden right now? Possibly, but my point stands. There are lots of people in the US whi have been driven insane by the horrific capitalist system they work in.

You're right, let's go in guns a blazing, Yank style, kill a bunch of Russian to feel better about the situation, escalate the situation to unspeakable levels.

Got it

Not what I said at all. However. waiting for the purposes of waiting isn’t much of a strategy.

Which Trump and the GOP, of all people, can save us from.

to paraphrase Lavrov "demands to remove NATO troops from NATO territory" are "regrettable"

It takes 2 to tango

And 2 in this case means nuclear war

 

[Tin-Tin]

another pointless death in waiting

Yes it would be but you have to admire the stand. Whats the alternative? Submit? Flee?

Dont think thats fair tbh
We dont know whats going on behind the scenes do we. I doubt they are just watching tv like the rest of us and Im sure there are discussions going on all day every day about actions.

Can we parachute @Zatara into Kiev with a rifle full of blanks and draped in a Russian flag?

I think this is the first time on this forum ive seen a long time poster saying they want a fellow poster dead.

In no circumstances and especially these is that amusing.

@Kev The Rat @Pittsburgh Footy @MikelsGoat @BlueTX @Gabagool @neil999 @PhilM @Daveysgingerlovechild

Interesting to see you all reacting positvely to me being dead.

That's not answering the question though. I'll make simpler for you: who do you want to win, Russia or Ukraine?

 

[longers]

These ghost of Kiev videos are incredible. What a pilot this fella is.

Got any links ? Everything I have seen on twitter seems like its an urban legend with people just calling any video of a jet "The Ghost of Kyiv".

We certainly can’t win

Unless you can post on GOT beyond the grave, you're not dead. It's dark humour, nothing more.

Do you want Russia or Ukraine to win?

It’s not what either @Pittsburgh Footy or I said (although it may be what he intended to say). Fair point.
