Ukraine War

If you were going to nuke Britain you’d nuke Scotland for the chain reactions caused by our nukes.

Why would Putin nuke London when half of it is owned by his mates and the City launders most of the dirty money coming out of Eastern Europe?

What is logical about anything he is saying or doing right now? The world has to work on the basis that he is capable of anything.

Please allow me this small attempt to reassure myself that my child is not heading for nuclear apocalypse. That said, with climate breakdown pretty much nailed on, we’re all fúcked as it is

I am pretty certain my children will not be thanking me for bringing them into this fúcked up world. Not that I appreciated at the time, but the late 80s and 90s were a great time to grow up (the odd IRA nail bomb aside).

He's threatened an immediate response against anyone who meets his definition of interfering. If we send troops over there, I can't see him leaving us alone.

I'll give it a week before everyone is blaming Fenty.

Bûgger gas prices. We need to inflict as much punishment on Russia as possible.

I am honestly pretty terrified by this. In my opinion NATO and the Western superpowers need to stand up now with force. Otherwise this will not stop and continue to progress until it is a full blown world war with Nuclear weapons.

That said it is easy for me to say this. To do so creates serious threats to escalation in the here and now and risks our troops lives, and our security amongst many other threats. It is not a simple situation at all and there are no simple or risk free solutions.

The fact that Putin is willing to risk so many lives for his own ends terrifies and saddens me.

The west standing up with force now is a very effective way of accelerating an escalation to full blown war with nuclear weapons. I don’t think it’s melodramatic to suggest that the first NATO or US shell fired in the direction of Russian forces (or vice versa) triggers a war that few in the developed world will survive.

It’s that precarious.

All pretence that this was about NATO or protecting the people of eastern Ukraine have been swept away. Once Putin made his speech about Ukraine being an integral part of Russia the scales dropped.
