I think that attacking a nuclear power plant should be the straw that breaks the camel's back as far as direct intervention by NATO or some other coalition is concerned. Such an attack can have serious ramifications for all of europe. This is more proof that a madman is in charge of the second most powerful nation on earth. And just when I thought it was safe to go to bed at night.NATO can't intervene Bob as it's only a defence alliance for member countries and unless a member country is attacked it has to stay out of it. |

Directly on the front lines of the cyberwarfare: After Ukraine recruits an “IT Army,” dozens of Russian sites go dark wrote: Cyberspace is feeling the strain of Russia’s deadly invasion of Ukraine: multiple sites tied to the Kremlin and its allies in Belarus have been unavailable to all or at least major parts of the Internet in recent days. Meanwhile, Elon Musk and Starlink have provided the near impossible: Elon Musk: “High” probability of Russian attacks on Starlink in Ukraine wrote: Musk urges users to place Starlink antennas as far away from people as possible. Just "WOW!!!" for the StarLink response! Ukraine needs all the help that can be given. Stay safe folks!

Reading this post, immediately thought: A combination of Hitler & Stalin. Unlike 80 years ago, a deadly one today. If martial law were introduced, Mr Putin would be free to do what he wanted, without having to worry about damaging protests in the streets. He has already made it clear to French President Emmanuel Macron that he won't stop until he has occupied the whole of Ukraine - and a French official who listened in on their phone call said, afterwards, that things could get a great deal worse.As history shows, it's always the peasants that pay the price.

Putin's mind he will be celebrated like Lenin for putting Russia back together. Same mental illness that allow losers to claim they won and there was massive fraud. |

Putin's not playing by the rules, why should NATO? I'm sure they could find a loophole in the rules if need be. One of the rules is to not use nukes against a conventional force, Putin has already said he will. While nuclear winter likely would stop global warming, I'm not sure that is what you desire. |

Doing so would give Putin the excuse he wants to claim that the west started WWIII. I would not lower myself to that level and nor would I give him the satisfaction to be able to make that claim and NATO thinks the same way until Russian bombs/shells/missiles/troops land in NATO or EU territory. |

Things are certainly not going Putin's way. Wild footage shows large crowds of unarmed Ukrainians confronting Russian troops in cities that have been occupied by Russia. Musk mocks Russian space agency over broomstick insult. Putin stripped of personal privileges as sports world takes action against Russia. And for a bit of levity in a dire situation. Hapless Russian soldier loses fight against door. |

Just like I expected, interest in this topic is waning. Nothing new to discuss and actually nothing we can do as a group to help the Ukrainian people.

‘Clusterf**k’: Nine of Putin’s commanders killed in Ukraine. Nine of Vladimir Putin’s military commanders have now been killed in Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. |

Even more pain for Putin and his personal stupidity. Russian debt default ‘imminent’, Fitch Ratings agency downgrades to junk. |

Now there is a bit of sense in Putin's actions. Ukraine has lots of oil - war pushes oil prices up Ukraine has lots of grain - Acts to dominate the world grain market. Thus he gets some much needed hard cash to bail him (and Russia) out of the debit doodoo his previous actions have caused....

As Russian atrocities (aka: war crimes) mount upwards in the Ukraine things just get worse in Russia as Putin's ego takes a hammering. Insane amount of companies joining Russia boycott. And the list gets longer by the day while others join Ukrainian forces. ‘World’s deadliest’ sniper arrives in Ukraine to fight the Russians. Then there's footage of a Russian tank convoy coming under attack and running away. In a fresh blow for Vladimir Putin, one of Russia’s top colonels has reportedly been killed in a surprise ambush by Ukrainian forces. Putin would have loved the sight of those tanks running at full speed away from the fight, not (he's more likely screaming for the heads of all those who retreated). |
