Got a mate whose in Krakow at the moment. Said the place is like one huge military base. Full of British, US and French troops

Hopefully a "just in case" scenario and not a sign of future plans

There’s an exercise in Georgia coming up this week, with some troops heading that way. The rest I’d recommend conjecture.

We wouldn’t; invading Ukraine and at least containing the rest of the Russian border (and Kaliningrad, and other suspect states) would require hundreds of thousands of troops, tanks, aircraft and all the logistical support. We’d be there for years / decades after, too.

Naahh.. NATO would defeat all of Russia's army within a week. Easy.

It is important to continue pressuring Putin through sanctions. “Australia expanded sanctions seek to limit Russia’s ability to produce aluminium which is critical to arms and munitions manufacturing.”

Saddam Hussein was a ruthless tyrant who murdered 250,000 of his own people. It's staggering to even try and make a comparison between the invasion of Ukraine and that of Iraq. Lest we forget, Hussein was convicted of crimes against humanity.

However. Like Colonel Gaddafi, how do we know Hussein was such a 'bad guy'..? Because BBC news told us..

I know of people who lived under both regimes and said what we were told was lies.

The West wanted rid of both Gaddafi and Hussein because they wanted to take control of the world's oil, and move it away from the dollar..

Mate. I bet you have first hand information on this do you? Probably some goon on twitter fed you a line.

Listen to Hussein's previous populace if you want real answers if they are still alive. I.E. The Kurdish population systematic genocide.

We need to put women in charge and do away with all armies. Fantastical I know, but letting paranoid, ego mad little dicked blokes create misery time and time again, is so done.

Well the UK's example is hardly a recommendation.

Some Russians are also showing great bravery against Putin’s regime, if only more adults could emulate the courage shown by this Russian teenager girl.

Biden really stepping up to the mark …not. Have we ever seen such a lightweight President of the USA. I know that most on here are Democrat voters but ffs this guy is a pure waste of space……

It’s these sort of demonstrations that shame the leaders of the West…..

Indeed. This girl seems to have more of a spine than many of our world leaders.
