I'm sure they'll act with thunderclap surprise, given their ultra-efficient alliance of multi-party parliamentary governments...
Just like they did in 1990s Yugoslavia when Western Europe had a much larger military than today.Quote:

I was watching some independent news last night. It appears a few of the largest and most prosperous cities in Ukraine are inside the territory that Putin has declared as independent states
Is the Nordstream? Pipeline really dead? I know the whole crimea thing was about the pipe line
I remember, a few years ago, Dutchman or a Belgian posting his annoyance at having to ride past an Allied graveyard every morning. The bright white crosses fucked with his sense of feng shui and petty sergeantry, and it just pissed him off having to see that shit every day regardless of whether he took the train, or rode his bike.
I told him the US military, for its part, has made a particular point of not leaving our bodies laying around in other countries since we liberated Holland and Flanders from their Nazi cousins in the last European war.
I'm surprised Putin isn't driving the lead invasion tank shirtless and single handily claiming the territory Rambo style while being live streamed. Maybe even have Trump on facetime setting up a golf date to lend him some more money.
What if NATO put together a clause stating if Russian invades they will annex Ukraine, enabling actions taken by NATO.
Turkey could close off the Bosphorus Strait to Russian commercial and military ships. AKA a sanction with some real impact.

They seem to like speculating on geopolitical WAR. You know. Other people shooting at each other. Tanks in the streets. And all that guff
I don’t know what is going to actually happen but the tv people in nyc. Are really into this war stuff.
You are going to hate hearing this but so far Putin has done everything that Biden and those talking heads have said he would.
Sec Blinken just said Russia will invade before tonight is over.
I feel like a different leader than Putin could have allowed Russian and Western interests to align. It would be a better world with Russia as our friend than our enemy.
But, Vladimir KGB Putin gonna Soviet and Russians do like stronkman leader... what do you expect, comrade?
All outcomes are bad for Ukraine, some worse than others.
I hope it is not necessary to war.

Good chance that the majority are just as brainwashed as Trumpstains are here. After all, Pootie Poot has been exporting the Firehose of Falsehood and social network engineering for at least the last 10 years.Quote:

If Putin's not appeased, he could go nuclear to get what he, himself, personally desires.
Putin was a kgb colonel, not an armored division commander. I may be wrong, but I think it will be death by a thousand cuts. He wants to topple this govt and so far he’s done a lot of damage just moving pieces around on the chessboard. I’d be surprised if moved fast and attacked outside of these two Donbas states. Unless the Ukrainians send everything they’ve got down there, then he’ll just put pressure on them from another direction.

Disagree; I think he's run out of "patience" and sees no alternative to massive "intervention", and is not worried about the West's response.
We shall see.
I mean FFS, we've got useful domestic idiots cheering Putin on.
Let's see if this is as meaningless as the last meeting.
Cono being just one of those Putin cheering idiotsQuote:

Putin to "demilitarize" Ukraine, calls on Ukrainian forces to lay down arms.
"To anyone who would consider interfering from the outside: if you do, you will face consequences greater than any you have faced in history. All relevant decisions have been taken. I hope you hear me." -Putin
Eat shit and die, Vlad!
Damn. Crazy.
Red Storm Rising was exactly my though. What a fucking shit show. Kinda feels like 1938/39 just took place in the past two weeks.
Fuck.
Yep... Russian amphibious assault on MariupolQuote:
