Current Affairs Ukraine

[Noisy noise annoys]

I got attacked on this board a couple of weeks ago for scaremongering. I don't remember the poster. CBA to look back.

We are teetering on the brink. NATO staying out as long as it can, but Putin is not going to stop with Ukraine. China meanwhile sitting in the background.

If this goes nuclear we are finished.

I bet you’re the type to post on day one in the transfer thread “can’t believe we’ve not signed ten players yet, im done with this club”

I must say, all the blaming of Ukraine for seeming to provoke the attack feels a lot like saying women deserve rape for wearing a short skirt.

I said something last week: https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/ukraine.114185/page-668#post-9494785

Anyone even considering blaming Ukraine and ignoring the elephant in the room, that is Putin and Russia, need to give their heads a wobble.

Nah but they could've just done a democracy move or something, you know, with Russia, as that *always* works.

Some sort of theory using bible numbers that it means total victory, others say say its a new beginning . I think it madness either way.

Putin loves being alive. You can see this in the distance he has insisted from others during the pandemic and now exaggerated in wartime meetings.

He loves his daughters enough to have tried to hide their identities.

He apparently loves St. Petersburg, Moscow and Russia.

He is a loose cannon and 'might' be capable of a tactical nuke but will know that there would be an equal response.

He is playing poker with the west, believing we are weak because of previous lack of action and has betted upon the same - in my opinion. I think Putin's Russia is finished, its just a matter of when.

An analysis of the posturing.

To decipher Putin's nuclear threats, watch what he does—not what he says

For years, Moscow has made nuclear weapons a centerpiece of its military doctrine. The West must not capitulate.
