Russia-Ukraine War

On a lighter note, be sure to keep an eye on Ukraine in the Euros. A good shout for us neutrals.

Apart from Iran and North Korea, no other Russian aligned country has provided Russia with direct arms. So even a country who wanted to sell to Russia indirectly would need to go through Iran or NK. That's pretty hard with both countries under sanctions.

As for supplying Ukraine, there's still countries who would prefer not to support (directly) or remain neutral so selling to an intermediary would be a solution.

A lot of people were copped on to them. Thread comments are a gas.

Is China looking to swap Taiwan for Ukraine?

Same in this country no interest in defense or even credible deterrence.

Putin's 'Peace' offer sounds more like an ultimatum. More akin to Hitler's speech and 'Peace' offer to Britain after the fall of France.

Yes ,that seems like a good way to view it.

What are the dynamics of support for Ukraine at the moment?

Is it losing ground in public opinion in the West(as opposed to support among the political groupings)?

General Patton's quote always gets taken out of context too (happy to be corrected, you know far much more than me on military matters)

We may have been fighting the wrong enemy (Germany) all along. But while we're here (on the Soviet border), we should go after the bastards now, 'cause we're gonna have to fight 'em eventually.

Where the above is usually the given context, where others have suggested it was the Jews, along with other versions of the quote.

So we should be trying to break through the wall of internet information (censorship) around China exactly as if we were already at war with them?

We should be funding anti CPC government groups living in the West and withholding visas for any one on the CCP page?

So long as it is productive.

Crack down on Beijing stooges?(when the time comes)

Let other countries choose a side?
