^^^^ I personally believe Putin already knows he has lost and is looking for a face saving way out of the whole sorry affair.

Nice to see the Russkies being pushed back....conscripts and thugs make for a dodgy army....epecially when ya starve em of resources....a poor plan executed with all the skill of a Scottish cricket team.

Very unfounded rumour (I just started it after a few coffees) has it that when president Volodymyr Zelensky accepts to describe the war as a 'limited special military operation exercise' President Vladimir Putin will end the operation immediately.

"Putin ally warns of nuclear dystopia due to United States" I'd hate to think the effect that would have on share prices.

^^^ Yikes! I haven't seen the film, but read the book when I was in my early teens. (My parents subscribed to a book club.) Let's just say it isn't a barrel of laughs.

Good lawd AyG, you sure know how to cheer people up, couldnt you think of any song more depressing? Excellent sax solo on that.
This seems more relevant today, eff nato and its killing machine, how much could have been spent on hospitals, schools, pensions etc etc, rather than some imaginary enemy.
"this is the crap our children are learning"

Seems a bit strange when reality intrudes on here. I don't follow it too closely, is the horrible kirnt actually getting his arse kicked a bit. Too much to hope that he'll actually just fold his tent and pysse orft, but good to see a bit of embarrassment for him.

While some still seem to be in the 'blame NATO' mood, Putin and his army are targeting hospitals, refugee shelters and schools in their Special Military Operation WAR against Ukraine.

^^^ Yikes! I haven't seen the film, but read the book when I was in my early teens. (My parents subscribed to a book club.) Let's just say it isn't a barrel of laughs. On the Beach by Nevil Shute "She sat there dumbly watching as the low grey shape went forward to the mist on the horizon, holding the bottle on her knee. This was the end of it, the very, very end. Presently she could see the submarine no longer; it had vanished in the mist. She looked at her little wrist watch; it showed one minute past ten. Her childhood religion came back to her in those last minutes; one ought to do something about that, she thought. A little alcoholically she murmured the Lordโs Prayer." Our rgs might like Round the Bend with some interesting Airplane Maintenance approaches.
