Is anyone actually surprised he attacked Kiev today ,
It's nothing more than an attempt to keep other's away ,he wouldn't have the balls to do it if he knew Moscow gets hit in return
Is there something else going on I wonder?
The "West" seems quite content now to ratchet up Putin to breaking point.
Have assurances been given that the the rabid dog will be put down if he goes for the jugular ???
Apparently that is long term funding, maybe 'till the end of the year.
I wonder if they'll include a few tomahawks in that aid package?
They've already stated that they won't hold back on strikes if Western heads of government visited.
An awful scenario of a representative of UK/US on Ukrainian soil being killed in the territory might happen. This war has a really nasty potential of blowing up :(
Putin waits till the UN secretary general Guterres is in Kyiv, sitting down for talks with Zelenskyy then of course orders airstrikes targeting Kyiv. You couldn't make it up, but it's also not surprising at this point.
Do Russia ave the equivalent of April 1st?
It’s very disappointing that we place absolutely no weight on the effort Ireland is making the UK refugees. I am sure that the menfolk back in UK have been 100% relieved of the burden of having to worry about the safety of their wives , children, etc. this allows the menfolk and some womenfolk to better concentrate on the ‘ job at hand’. This is something that we can do and hopefully do more of it if needed
Good man Francie, nothing like a bit of Shinner Porn. I suppose it just goes to prove again the old adage, that one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter, with benefits :)
Standing next to them, and staring back from the mirror, probably.
...UK will unleash a barrage of appropriate artellary on targeted Russian assets, interests, etc, wherever they are as you have no right to be on our land as we have done nothing to you . And stop your gibberish , small talk , deflections , kite flying, misinformation spreading, fake news, nothing to see here, , etc ,etc..
Just come back from Happy Hour at the pub?
Sounds like Donald Sutherlands character in The eagle has Landed😎😁
The uK raine president should threaten Russia that if it does not stop using all types of artillary in Ukraine by midnight , 29 April 2022 and have COMPLETELY withdrawn ALL of its troops and ALL army equipment by MAY 3 , 2022 that UK will unleash a barrage of appropriate artellary on targeted Russian assets, interests, etc, wherever they are as you have no right to be on our land as we have done nothing to you . And stop your gibberish , small talk , deflections , kite flying, misinformation spreading, fake news, nothing to see here, , etc ,etc..
the only confession that UK might consider making is that if any of their vehicles get stuck that the UK will help to help it on its way but only if it agrees to a JOHN DEERE tractor is used to relieve stuck vehicles
AND see what Putins response is.
If he misses the deadine then start with that bridge
There is, yes : the Russian denials of their own involvement were always preposterous.
It's not really. The current situation is a conventional invasion of a smaller country by its larger neighbour. Vietnam was a case of one half of a country seeking the overthrow of the government of the other half, and running a guerrilla campaign in its enemy territory to assist the process. It was in no way a simple case of "Vietnamese vs American". One can certainly criticise America for its approach to the Vietnam War, but to say that "Vietnam = Ukraine" and "America = Russia" just doesn't stand up to any scrutiny.
I read in The Sunday Independant that the pro Putin automobile protesters in dublin said something to the effect that they have a right - IN IRELAND- to express their point of view. Jesus wept
Ukrainians taking a leaf out of the Viet Cong tactic's in Vietnam.
I think this is why a lot will wonder if the nukes are maintained at all. If we're seeing lumps of metal replaced with cardboard and ration packs and medical supplies well out of date, the idea that the nukes are maintained immaculately just seems ridiculous
I wonder how much they'll get for Mar-A-Lago.
They're among the best rocket scientists in the world so that part should be fine, the nukes themselves could be another matter. I read a book that mentioned this ages ago and I was surprised how delicate that can be. They need a lot of maintenence over time. The electronics degrade, the chemical explosives that set off the reaction/blast degrade, they use polonium and tritium as alpha particle accelerators to kick off the big bang and the first is pretty much dead at a year, the second though isn't as good an emitter lasts about five years in useful terms. The radiation itself can weaken internal components over time. There are a lot of paths for failure to go bang, or at least the full on bang. YOu could have one that fizzles but the chemical explosive spreads very nasty radiocative material for miles, which could be worse long term.
Is there a link S? If it's datable that pretty much nails the Russian coffin shut as far as evidence of atrocities go. There's just too much evidence.
I think, based on that, we can rule out that it's Mick Wallace.
If a few nuclear warheads land in the UK and they get the ferry over here, do we send them to Rwanda while we process them?
Well one thing that the Russians do well is launch rockets as is evident by their space program.
unlike the rest of their claims about their military which has been proven to be rubbish the last few months.
Wonder if Putin regrets moving past the Donbas region.
33 billion is a lot of kit for Ukraine. Between the UK saying Russia should be pushed out of Ukraine entirely (one wonders do they mean Crimea as well) and the US raining gear down on Ukraine, the intelligence picture must look bad for Russia.
Part of me wonders if they ever tried to launch those Nukes…could there be a decent chance of them misfiring on launch and possibly nuking themselves?
The war has shown that they’re not that good at maintaining cold-war era kit…and most of those nukes probably date from those times.
With a serious question mark on whether the nukes are viable. And then of course the newest "Wunderwaffen" the Satan missile. They are a pack of bluffers!!
