Russia invading Ukraine (NEWS/UPDATES)

Status
Not open for further replies.

Zelensky would rather die fighting. He might be an actor/comedian rather than a politcian but he's come across well as a true Ukranian patriot.

All men between 18-60 are banned from leaving the country, even celebs like the Klitchsko brothers have confirmed they're taking up arms (They just need gloves cos they're hard as fuck)

It's at the stage where Ukrainian society has decided if we're gonna lose then we're gonna make it as difficult as possible rather than rolling over.

I thought Zelensky had fled the country.

Nobody would blame him if he did. If any Father puts his his family first then that's fair enough. However, if he flees they become a country with no government. That basically hands Putin the country on a plate.

Putin shut down the entire country of Belarus when Lukashenko rigged his elections, 1700 arrests today.

You protest in Belarus or Russia you either get shot or go suspiciously missing

I was actually thinking the other day that Russia hasn't had a Tiananmen Square moment yet.

Inspiring but heartbreaking. Human beings like me or you having to grab a rifle and fight back knowing that you're more than likely going to die in the process. It's f***ing insane

I kinda joke around about it but I’ve been out for 8 years and I still have moments.
Just little stupid things, like I overthink small situations like stuck in traffic, I think all possible outcomes (that never ever happen in our society) to the point I make myself anxious. Basically any situation I can’t take full control over and there’s a crowd. It’s frustrating because I can feel it coming on and I can’t stop it.

It’s nothing dangerous but I know it’s from being in certain situations and having certain training.

There’s a lot of people in a worse position that can’t control it so well.

Jokings most of our way to deal with it most of the time. Service sense of humour. You don't have to look far to find someone who'll listen though mate, if you try. I found it helps, even though they can't do anything about it.

This. Massive credit to them. If they’re going down, they’re going down swinging, as hard as they fuckin can. Get into them, lads and lasses. Unbelievable bravery.

Because putin hasn’t lied throughout this whole thing?! Has he?

We’re on training not going to attack Ukraine”……..they have
“The tank are returning to the bases”- they weren’t
“It a limited incursion into the east of Ukraine” - its a full scale invasion

Putins regime has constantly lied to the world

I didn’t say he hasn’t. I love people on this board. They take anything they want and twist it wherever they want. Kinda pathetic really

That’s not a pop at just you there, it’s almost impossible to have a reasonable conversation anymore on here
