Just checked in on my friends after the most recent bombing.
I don't think I'm alone when I say that every additional person the SOB kills makes me even angrier. The slime bag was hoping enthusiasm would wane over time, but people are onto him. Support from the US, Germany, Poland and the UK, among others, has been incredibly strong and consistent.
What's the feeling in Oz? Does it feel too far away?

Yeah, I was reading about that earlier on a few different sites. Very interesting twist.
It wil be interesting how it plays out, I read something the other day comparing how Ukranians are signing up to fight and willing to go where angels fear to tread for their country whereas the Russians contain a lot of conscripts who don't want to be there and the Russians have to deploy special troops at the rear of advances to shoot Russian soldiers who retreat.
This Wagner mob may not meet a lot of resistance if they're serious. Big question would be, what happens if they win?

Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

I have also read, and watched videos on youtube, of Ukrainian military police bursting into homes and arresting young men attempting to avoid conscription becasue they are unwilling to die for the Zelensky regime and its US backers. The Zelensky regime has outlawed democracy in Ukraine, so many in the Ukrainian population are aware that its claims to be fighting for "freedom, democracy and national liberation" are sordid lies.stui magpie wrote:^
