I don’t think anyone’s getting nuked :lol:

Some fascinating stories mind of how close it came during the Cold War. Two peoples individual decisions likely avoided a nuclear exchange

Stanislav Petrov



Presume that’s able archer?
 
As it's such a threat to the world by an egotistical old man, I really doubt it would even get as far as launching a nuclear missile.
 
Where do you think realistic targets would be? London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Glasgow, Edinburgh…

So where really would be a good place to go?
Get a spade and dig till your feel your leg hair burning.

Trident is the west coast of Scotland.

London always

RAF bases, army bases, naval ports.

Strategic targets.
 
I figured that, let’s hope that those around him have the bollocks to stand up to him. Maybe they’ve built a fake red button that’s not connected to anything, they’ll all just stand there shrugging their shoulders pretending they don’t know what’s happened

Depends if you think that small, fairly irrelevant countries (sorry Ukraine) should be allowed to do what they like regardless of external factors. If it comes down to WW3 or Ukraine agrees not to join NATO than anyone with a brain would insist on the latter.

I think all sovereign states should be able to do what they want as long as they act within international law, yes.

So again - Putin can fuck off. Appeasement hasn’t exactly dissuaded him. He needs to be stood up to.
