prussianblue 1,031 Posted February 26, 2022 There were reports before the invasion that the Russian top brass had doubts about the invasion, perhaps because they have a passing acquaintance with reality and understood that Ukraine is vast and the population not exactly enthusiastic about being bombed and turned into refugees. Interesting how there's been no big breakout from the Donbass. The Crimean breakout has gone okay but nothing astounding. Kyiv and Kharkiv have proven tougher nuts to crack. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prussianblue 1,031 Posted February 26, 2022 Meanwhile, Russia is having great success in alienating even friendly nations. Greece now very angry about the deaths of Greeks in Mariupol, and various countries in eastern Europe have closed their airspace to Russian planes over the course of the day.

Tower1 93 Posted February 26, 2022 58 minutes ago, drol said: Putin is actually convinced he is "freeing Ukraine" from "junkies and nazis". He likely expected his troops to be hailed as liberators, local population to arise against the "nazis". A distorted vision of the world, as the reality is he is a sick twisted fuck and most Ukrainians think that. How long before he himself realizes he acted crazily? TASS site is reporting there will be negotiations with Ukraine in Belarus as Zelensky agreed (true???). That does not mean "the suspension of war", but points against further escalation. He thought it would be much much easier... Russia ministry of defense reports no casualties, when it's apparent to everyone this is not the case. Why should you lie if you are winning? Actually it's the people that listen to Western media who have distorted vision of world. They don't realise that their nations have been occupied by bank elites, Big Pharma and global corporations, they think they've been living in "democracy" when in reality we live in some kind of primitive corporatism and a giant lie created by the media. Now we are suposed to feel empathy for Ukraine or something which makes no sense because we're not aware of our own situation. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CastAway 488 Posted February 26, 2022 20 hours ago, Sean said: I don`t think so but included her as Zelensky refered to her as target number 2 along with his children whose names I do not know. Based on everything Zelensky's been saying, his family is "in a safe place." There's a claim that there's a video out there of him saying something on the lines of 'I'm here, my family's here, we're just like you (the Ukrainian soldiers),' but I can't find a source on that. That said, I'm inclined to believe that as of now his family is still in the country, because the journalists would have sniffed out them fleeing by now. Now, would I call that the smartest move? No. But that's what I do believe to be the case. On a kind of related note: while Zelensky's courage cannot be denied, one of the biggest criticisms of him leading up to the invasion was that he couldn't see the big picture. To the moment Russia invaded, he continued to insist that there was no way that was happening and the West was panicking. Should something happen to him, there doesn't seem to be much provision for a Ukrainian government in exile at the moment. Per some of his videos, the top politicos are still in country, including the PM, and so is the only other elected pro-West head of state in Poroshenko. So, the question becomes, what happens if they are captured or killed? No one wants that to happen, but if you're the president, you need to have a plan in place for that happening. In the same way that he can't seem to plan for contingencies in political life, keeping his family in the country means he's not planning for contingencies personally either. It's the one really bad move he's made, IMO, and I'm really hoping this is not something people come to regret. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We've been poisoned and financially destroyed by vaccines, lockdowns, "health" measures and technology that we're not even aware of. Global institutions like WHO and World economic forum openly talk about "hacking" people with nanotechnology which basically means turning them into complete slaves. Media manipulate with our feelings to focus our attention where they need it. So I think it's logical to say that we shouldn't always fall into this trap and emotionally react to their agenda. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sometimes in life things are exactly how they seem. There are no big conspiracies going on, I'm not a slave, I've got free will to do what I please as long as laws aren't broken and others don't suffer. I'm grateful for my vaccines, and acknowledge that those that make decisions in democracies are imperfect, make mistakes and are sometimes incompetent, but we choose them to lead us. People who spout shit like this are allowed to do so because of the freedoms they enjoy, like the rest of us, and for that you should be grateful no matter how much mischief and harm results from it. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know in which world you live but laws have been broken a lot. Vaccines are unlawful because they haven't been properly tested, health measures in last two years too because they've done more harm and are unconstitutional from start. Everything that America did in foreign policy was unlawful but still nobody cried when they bombed 3rd world countries together with Israel with the weapon produced by NATO member countries. So I won't cry either if Russia is bombing Ukraine because Ukraine is basically America. And there is no freedom of speech too because you can't say something like this (the truth) on social networks etc, only on forums like this. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Old Crem 3,588 Posted February 27, 2022 prediction. Fifa will not expel Russia for a week or so then will attempt to do so only for CAS to overrule them. Russia then ends up the World Cup by default which then gets cancelled when everyone else withdraws but FIFA can’t expel Russia due to CAS only allowing counties sanctions by the UN to be expelled.
