The Sun is reporting that Putin is to undergo surgery for abdominal cancer. Can we bung the medical team a few quid to accidentally over or under do the GA, list him for a bilateral orchiectomy and give him placebos instead of pain relief?
A slight diversion, but is it correct to call it a war?
To me a war has a different meaning to being invaded and defending oneself.
Is it easier and quicker to say and type war?
Being invaded without legitimate reason keeps Ukraine as the faultless side.
No. They might just as well use them on themselves given what the response will be.
My take on all the Russian deaths - don't overlook the military training, it is all about following orders. However, those that have been raping and shooting civilians have no excuses. They are in the queue...
The Russian people are hardened to a tough life, so will be able to endure economic sanctions better than most. The bigger issue is whether Putin's domestic propaganda machine still works and whether he can fix another election.
The crossroads will be Putin in a coffin. Sadly, until that...
A new leader can order a withdrawal and spin it however needed to keep the brainwashed on side. Unbrainwashing will take a long time. I have hope that Russia can join the sensible world with a new Gorby type.
As for Putin woodchip the kunnt.
Such orders being followed doesn't put the artillery men in the best light. We've seen that tank drive over a car and recently a tank blow up a car with people inside.
Do you think he's trying to 'outdo' Hitler?
The footage just gets more distressing and depressing. Putin's 'liberation' by turning the country to rubble and killing everyone is so unnecessarily ****ish. He needs taking out by any means available.
How does the world arrive at the scenario that Putin apologies, says "about turn" and promises not to do it again and then doesn't?
I can't see it. The only solution involves a woodchipper.
Its so ****ish. Its going to take so long to make those places habitable again. Mind you, the whole thing is ****ish, so why should that be different?
The thought of a nucular bomb being used is putting the willies right up me.
