    I think if you try to corner a bear it will lash out.

    Cornering a large hairy gay man may cause him to lash out.

    Or it may be the night of your life.

    Nothing is certain.

    Quite ironic a Chelsea fan opening this thread given the nationality of the man funding their club :pac:

    What would happen if you took them now?

    Like popping e-pills or you just end up on the bog for the night?

    He is a man in the mould of Hitler or Stalin, he is not afraid to kill, Ralph Fiennes in his Voldemort outfit should play him in a biopic.

    Not true.

    http://www.hps.org/publicinformation/ate/q7000.html

    "The shelf life of IOSAT 130 mg tablets is seven years and the shelf life of ThyroSafe 65 mg tablets is six years"

    In fact the above 7 years shelf life, is probably just scaremongering by the drugs companies.

    "From FDA guidance on shelf-life extension, studies over many years have confirmed that none of the components of KI tablets, including the active ingredient, has any significant potential for chemical degradation or interaction with other components or with components of the container closure system when stored according to labeled directions"

    Bring it on Vlad!

    I'm too old to take them anyway, but I'll slip a few to the chisler. :D

    Twink, given the response of the west..

    I really believe Putin is batsh1t crazy, and has no care for what anyone else thinks. We all know that bullies only respond to violence, and I know it's easy for me to say here lying on my couch, but how far do we allow him to go before enough is enough?

    We should defend our way of life to an extent that any attempt on it is crushed, so that any adversary will never make such an attempt in the future.

    Nice to see some links after the OP confirmed there was an outbreak of Ebola in the country a few weeks back.

    The guy from Right Said Fred would be a fabulous Bear for him to wrestle. :pac:

    This will not end well for Russia, its an economy built on oil and gas, with a Boycott it wouldn't take long for the country to use its cash reserves and its financials collapse. The population is basically 150m drunks.

    I for one welcome out new Russian overlords.

    who is going to boycott them....there is a shorteage of these the world over

    EU countries account for 84% of Russia's oil exports, and about 76% of its natural gas. To put that in context oil and natural gas sales accounted for 68% of Russia's total export revenues in 2013. So the Bear has become massively reliant on us, would we be ready for a colder winter to halt the Bear?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,768 ✭✭✭✭tomwaterford


    , would we be ready for a colder winter to halt the Bear?

    nooooooooooo!!!!:(:(

    edit: feck it....sure I don't have oil/gas heating at home here anyway

    It will go nuts. If you won't corner the bear - it will also go nuts.

    Option? Nuke them. Nuke them all.

    You can believe that from the NY Times if you want, its up to you. Everyone (not me) believed this a month ago but no one believes it now.

    ... Churchill was generally ignored by the men who did the actual military planning.

    In fact, a contingency plan was drawn up and agreed upon by the British and Irish governments during the war that in the event of a German invasion the Irish army would hold out for a few days at which point British divisions would land in Ireland to aid in her defence.

    ...

    Sources for this statement??

    Not all their neighbours.

    The key members of NATO have a recent history of bullying, interfering with and invading sovereign nations. They don't even limit it to their neighbours, they spread the "love" to distant sovereign nations they have no business interfering with. At least Russia stays within it's sphere of influence.

    How long would our sovereignty be benignly smiled upon by the UK and USA if by some insanity we announced tomorrow we were joining the Warsaw Pact? I think some serious regime change would be in the weather... Oh, wait, the Warsaw Pact no longer exists... Then why the hell does NATO?

    Russia's "imperialist attitude" is a myth. It's never been smaller. NATO is expanding toward Russia, Russia is not expanding toward NATO.

    Which soverign nations exactly did NATO "invade" ?

    And by invade I mean boots on the ground, military bases, long term visible military presence.

    He did not say they invaded he said they expanded. (By your definition of invade)
