They wouldn't get very far. No survival abilities, no technical abilities. Just a bunch of self serving pricks who relied on the average joe to carry the can. They'd all be dead inside 3 months.
Tbh I’ve stopped believing anything now from any side. These little video snippets with zero context should be taken with a pinch a salt.
That guy is a numpty of the highest order.
An empty corn flakes box would possess more gravitas and intelligence.
Remember him most for this gem:
It was certainly talked about at the time, not least by Germans and German politicians and not just the Nazi party. The British were half and half about it, The Italians were against it, the American response was complicated, the French were jumping for joy at it and wanted more. After a while and a feeling that this was causing trouble down the line further treaties relaxed the terms. Even after the war, a relative of mine who was in immediate post war Germany noted that of the occupying forces, the British and the Americans were the most accepted, the Russians were feared(at first, but this eased off), but at the time the ones the Germans despised the most were the French.
Ukrainians farmers becoming one of the world's fastest growing armies
I mean it could easily last for years if Russia refuse to withdraw and the West doesn't escalate to further help the Ukrainians. Or maybe Russia cuts its losses once it topples Kyiv and just holds the more symbolic parts of the country.
Granted it would no longer be a conventional war; but I'm not sure it's really a "conventional war" right now anyway.
RuSSian "peacekeeping" in action..
Why would Russian fertilizer and grain not be making it for export? That isn't under threat.
Dominic Raab is stating that the Russian occupation of Ukraine will last for years. How?!? War is an extremely costly venture. The sanctions are crippling the Russian economy. There are only a finite number of soldiers. As soon as the military leave, Russia will lose its stranglehold on Ukraine.
How could this last for years?
Watch the spill over if Russia gets bogged down and losing serious casualties.
Their ability to prosecute this war will be tested by lack of money as sanctions bite very hard, plus they seem to be more of a war enactment club than an international army to be feared at present.
there is a special place in Hell for people like these
Why have you Serbia on that list? Serbia is massively pro Ukraine. Jebi Putin.
Would you be sympathetic to the US if it invaded countries on its southern border after they suggested possible Russian co-operation, or is it just Russia who can legitimately limit what sovereign nations can do? Would be quite a turnaround for hard lefties and socialists to say now that the US had a legitimate interest in toppling the Sandinistas. I'm struggling to remember the same excuses being trotted out by the left, it all seemed cut and dried back then, and now.
I think they do offer a real, tangible benefit to the world, so long as they're not let off ever. They essentially prevent the large military powers of the world from facing off in open hostilities, knowing what that could escalate to, and instead limit things to diplomacy, subterfuge and localised conflicts where the big powers back the sides involved. Wouldn't it be lovely to live in a world where we could do away with the nukes and all just agree to get along anyway? Certainly yes. I'm a bit pessimistic, though, given, eh, the entirety of recorded human history to think it would happen on any timescale I'd ever live to see.
Yep, nukes are far and away the biggest force multiplier in any arsenal. If Putin didn't have the threat of nukes I'd be surprised if NATO wouldn't have gone into Ukraine already and Putin's misadventure would be over in under a week. His convoys would be smouldering wrecks within 48 hours, his airforce(such as it is) would be stains in the ground or grounded, his missile crews gone and his army running for the border.
The really sad thing is the ones that will be saved in bunkers will be much the ruling elites.
So we would restart human civilisation often with moronic leeching greedy political types.
Maybe he started working out all the loot he had in the West that suddenly was going to be confiscated?
Whether it was fair or not, isn't it credited with creating such hardship in Germany that it created a niche for the Nazi Party and Hitler?
I don't know if people talked about ut at the time. I presume anyone who considered it was told to shut up. Similar to now when someone mentions nato expansion as a contributing factor to the Ukrane invasion.
No.
A regional conflict is not a world war.
It may end up as a world with a lot of war as revolution and riots explode across the world as the reality of Russian fertilizer and the food they Now control being removed from the market place.
That's not a world war. Military Russia haven't the capability to take on a modern Army. They are making a hard job of taking the Ukraine.
This happened earlier today. They have an experimental reactor on site.
Russian banks have their own internal card payment system and don't rely on it for completely domestic transactions
i guess it's something like the laser system we used to have here for years.
And also, if Nukes ended, it would just become a battle of the best weaponry and the best technology - Russia is way behind on that as we’ve seen - so there’s no way a country with poor weaponry but a great arsenal of nukes, is going to give them up- same for North Korea and any other despot nation
Over a million people marched against the Irag war in a major western country, The UK.
Just pointing out that protests won't work in this case. The war is already happening and it will escalate day by day until one or all are killed.
Ceasefire is yet again breached by the Russians. Surprise, surprise. The regime does not want peace. It just wants to take at all costs… And you will have the sickening sympathisers such as Clare Daly and Mick Wallace
so now we have an axis of 3/4 disconnected territories who are not collaborating together very tightly firing non precision missiles into a country with approx ten nuclear plants and storage facilities, this is not going to end well
That can never happen as one country will quietly develop a nuke and have supremacy over everyone. It would be best if we disbanded all armies but that won't happen either.
I’d go as far as existential classification soon
The situation at Irpin on the outskirts of Kyiv looks pretty bad
