Russia invading Ukraine (NEWS/UPDATES)

[Viper]

Anti-Vax, conspiracy weirdo Le Tissier tweets anti-ukraine proganda, what a c*** he is.

There shouldn't be a negotiation, just pick up your troops and artillery and fuck off. We all know the Russians don't want "talks"

Sounds canny but it doesn't work like that, unless you're patient enough to wait 25 years like the Afghans. That's almost as long as Ukraine has been independent.

Don’t believe anything

Especially from RT.

Quite amazing you can have that crack on with enemy soldiers.

I thought that but then when I thought about it more, most people aren't natural aggressors.

It's much easier and more natural to be aggressive when you're defending something.

Likely those Russians were ordered to invade and they don't want to be there at all. If that were me and my mates and we'd been ordered to invade a country and kill, firstly, none of us would want to be there and secondly if we'd ran out of petrol all we could really do is laugh. We'd be the same.

Its like Putin's personal comical ali

Ukrainians were instrumental in the early development of western Canada..carving out a livelihood on the high northern plain 100 odd years ago wasn't the life for many western europeans. They were given a piece of land and little else....why today Canada now has the third largest Ukrainian population in the world behind the country itself and Russia...

1.3 million here I think?They are fundraising at the moment.

You missed THICK from your sentence.

 

[Horatio Pugwash]

I can't take any in, I have no spare rooms and the house is very small (otherwise I would).

Aye, there's probably more that "would, but...." than actually do

 

[Yer da claims JSA]

Which part?

What part of “everything” are you struggling with bro?

How many are you taking in?

They're not allowed in the country so it's moot

It's an interesting Venn diagram, the intersection of covid denying fuckwits and Russia apologists.

 

[HellsBells]

Refugees don't get visas

So how do they get here then?

 

[sonson]

I suppose that makes it true ‘fact’

-fact

Agree. I don't think it's an unreasonable scenario to present to someone who decries the government for not doing more. If there was a scheme to house families or kids fleeing from war I'd sign up.

A circle is indeed an interesting shape.

It’s an interesting conundrum though. Willing but not able and those able but not willing.

Conveniently moot but worth asking the question hypothetically to measure the integrity of the individual.

She couldn't anyway... she reckons other people should though

It's been one of my pet hates ever since I heard bagpuss demanding people should open their doors to as many refugees as is possible to fit in. I asked him how many he was taking g in and he said none as "it would be inconvenient "

Hypocrisy

Financial assistance or physically putting them up?
I'd happily chip in to help

Hypocrisy

Sure but that dosent mean there isn't a good argument for a wealthy country with thousands of empty properties to house refugees from war
