She knows her stuff, and Russian owned tycoons have been chasing her for years.

Yes it involves Brexit and the 2016 elections, because they're very obviously a part of all this, but if you're still in denial about Russian participation within that, trigger warning.

Another who can't get over 2016, despite having to apologise for her lies.

"ARRON BANKS – APOLOGY On 22 Oct 2020, I tweeted that Arron had been found to have broken the law. I accept he has not. I regret making this false statement, which I have deleted. I undertake not to repeat it. I apologise to Arron for the upset and distress caused."

The war in Ukraine has shown the Russian military to be woefully inadequate in comparison to NATO. Hopefully soon people near him will realise he has to go or everyone will end up dead. Maybe give him and his oligarchs a one way tickets to Cuba. There are very few other places to go. Oligarchs money can be returned to the new Russian government.
 
I was a little too young to fully understand the major impact 9/11 would have on western society. For many, it ended an era of innocence and prosperity. Everything looks different pre 2001, even tv shows like the sopranos and the west wing show a shift in society.

I feel now, we are at a critical juncture again in western society. This could be the dawn of a new era, or a tragic end to one

If this does end up in a larger scale war. Russia need have all their nuclear arsenal decommissioned and banned from nuclear power after it is over.

We would
Need to get in before putin knew we were in wouldn’t happen and have limited time to stop him if that happened pretty much impossible.

He’s a nuclear power so are nato. It would be over in no time
At all we can’t decommission a country that doesn’t exist
 
"The Russian defense ministry has called on Ukrainian civilians to evacuate from Kyiv. Russian state media are really hyping these comments. The defense ministry is telling people to leave via a very specific route. That they are even talking about Kyiv is a noticeable shift. Now, they are saying civilians should evacuate, as Russian troops were seen pausing operations/backing up from Kyiv. Not a great trajectory."

I don’t think we can compromise with someone who has threatened nuclear war within the space of 4 days, the west need to stand strong on this one.

We can compromise with Russia. Their paranoid, crazy leaders have made them into a basket case. All this talk of Empires. Russia has a GDP lower than Italy.

No I’m not suggesting that happens. I’m saying on his theory….. not saying do it I’m going to what we would need to do for the other poster to achieve what he said…….. also stated impossible. You have responded mid conversation to my post on another poster.

Also regarding computer games I’ve seen real combat thanks for asking ive also lost a lot of friends due to war which I wouldn’t wish on anybody.

Belarus "we will host peace talks, your safe to travel here and talk" puts phone down...... Minutes later missiles fired from Belarus.

From the bbc
The president of Belarus promised the president of Ukraine in a telephone call that he would ensure that there was safety for the delegations to travel close to the border for peace talks.

But right after that phonecall missiles were fired from Belarus territory into Ukraine so it made a mockery of that promise.

If Russia take a beating we have to insist they collapse all their Nuclear arsenal before we can agree peace. Theyre the only country in the modern age that has made threats with it. Even NK know thats asking for trouble

If I'm honest, I don't know what the obligations are.

I'm concerned that anyone going into Russia may cause an incident. He still has an large army, but his finances and hardware will be decimated, probably by a lot of tens. He may Panic, he may sow panic into his people,just like Ukraine have if he can spin it right.

I really hope someone internally takes him out asap, for everyones own good.

Russians have form for revolution. When people used to holidaying in Cyprus have to queue for bread and police don't get paid he will go.
