They've shown what they themselves are willing to do, and that's entirely to their credit, and the credit is theirs alone, and nobody should be piggybacking on it. It dosen't f***ing matter what anyone else thinks or says they would do in the same situation, because they aren't, and should be thankful for that more to the point.

Dim dom and his silliness aside, I think the Ukrainians have put the lie to Putin’s claims about Ukraine being essentially a historical fiction. People - civilians included - are putting their lives on the line in a desperate fight for the idea of an independent Ukraine.

I’m personally awed by their bravery.

No need to get personal, I accept your opinion without resorting to petty name calling.
 
Left field but, What’s to stop about 10000 NATO troops just walking into Ukraine from the west, like f***ing pure nonchalant straight up just swaggering about the place. Moment anything that could be perceived as being hostile from a Russian weapon comes near then just classifying it as hostile fire and then f***ing the ruskies up? 😆

It's literally meaningless for anyone to say they would do what the Ukrainians are doing right now.

Nobody knows until they're faced with that prospect what they would or wouldn't do in a situation that required something like that of them . Talk about it one way or another is completely worthless and devalues the act itself.

Classic keyboard hardmen on a Friday night after a few.

I bet most of these on here calling people cowards would shit their knickers if they were in a situation like in Ukraine.

It’s admirable and brave from the Ukrainians standing up to fight, however I’d never call someone who doesn’t want to fight a coward. Just because someone isn’t a fighter doesn’t make them any less of a man in my opinion.

That's operating under the assumption the fight is fair. Sadly might not be

That's operating on the assumption Russia hasn't been listening to Ukraine's President and most of the international community. It's scary stuff and if true, can only be part of Putin's overall strategy.

People do what they need to survive in war. People conceive of that in different ways. That's about all there is to it.

I suppose even something as basic as a roadside sign saying "warning mines" may be enough to slow a column down enough to get a decent shot at it

Most main roads are usually tarmac/concrete so hard to mine (easy to spot) so it would have to be convincing. You could get lads to dig holes in the road and then fill them back in again 😬


One IED in one culvert would scare the shit out of them as it did with us in NI, Iraq & Afghan

Be handy if we get invaded, you seen the roads in shields? IEDs every 3 feet.
