Current Affairs Ukraine

[Blue Roo]

There's a world of difference between RT and the likes of the BBC, sky, CNN and the like.

Genuinely worlds apart.

Well the world is getting smaller now and less and less apart, despite what the BBC will tell you.

The outcomes however are basically the same - consent of their masses

I’m buying her to eat it the big fatty

With the cost living shooting up it could be a cheaper alternative

Given the level of backing down from the west since Putin's 'reminder' on Sunday, I think nothing short of a full scale declaration of war on a NATO country would provoke their involvement.

It’s not backing down ffs, it’s using tact and common sense to prevent an utter lunatic starting ww3

One mans backing down, is another's common sense.

lets not fixate on semantics eh?

Its a war mate.

But would you laugh about it?

I cannot believe that you are thinking clearly about what is happening, mate. Women and children are being murdered by the Russian army.

Women and children being murdered by an invading force.

Think about it.

If it was your mum, son or daughter, how would you feel.

One day the people of Ukraine were going to the shops, pubs, work and home. The next day Putin invaded their country.

Why do you want Russia to win, mate?

Also, how are you here 24/7?

Let's leave it mate, it was a gallows response to a comment about the Russians getting payback for remaining, where the opposite is likely true.

You've blown it out of all proportion here.

No, no one has backed down. The west has done exactly what it should have, your man putin has done exactly what he shouldn’t and it’s going to cost many, many lives.
Bravo, you must be made up

He broke the Chechens. He look to be adopting the same strategy here.

it may not work, but the place will be reduced to rubble.

If he doesnt have the manpower to fight an insurgency, then the Ukrainians would be able to kick him out

They clearly arent capable of doing that.

He has finished himself and Russia here, Kev.

It would take a miracle for any right minded person to not want to see Putin and his gangsters removed and dealt with.

I kind of agree mate

I'm trying to look at what will actually happen, unfortunate as the outcome may be.

Me or you or anyone here sitting here 'cheerleading' for one side or the other isnt going to alter anything.

Another call from a friend this evening - business has never been so brisk for some as Russians attempting to evade detection in the face of sanctions, continue to launder their money to London, at a slightly higher cost than before.

Interesting thread

Can’t see Putin going for this, seems more like the “burn down everything around him” kind to me but desperately hope there are some off ramps found be it this or another one.
