Ukraine

[Stephanie]

It’s so difficult to know what to do. Imagine the leaders of the west today trying to decide what to do. Leave him alone and he will wipe Ukraine which will last for years as they people will resist in many forms. I predict that you will see Ukraine elements eventually attack in Russia and will then be called terrorists!

Or NATO to go in, push them back, retake the three states,

have international observed elections to decide if they stay or go to Russia. Take out putin. Of course will he launch?

NATO cannot go in .

Not without WWIII - Mutually Assured Total Destruction.


Many people do not understand this - even in the West .

Many local people will resent the West for not having ‘gone in’ - we Can’t .

NATO is giving a great deal of support short of getting officially involved. This is rather annoying Putin and Russian, as you would expect.
There is real-time information and intelligence about troop and aircraft movements and there are US and UK special forces on the ground in Ukraine as "advisors" who are doing more than "advise". Even this limited help could be dangerous, if it goes wrong.

The nuclear engineers are out in force I see. Let's not forget that people design nuclear reactors and do risk assessments as part of the build.

The potential for accidental or intentional damage, aircraft or terrorist attacks have to be designed into reactors.

It would take considerable effort to cause enough damage to a reactor, and even if it did melt down, which is unlikely, by design the nuclear material is generally contained within the reactor core.

I.e. Unlikely to cause fallout across the globe. Or even the rest of Europe.

But don't take it from me...

That's exactly it.
The best minds in Russia have been planning this for months if not years.
Every move has been calculated, every permutation, every eventuality has been thought through.
There is no way he doesn't know exactly what he's doing and is five steps ahead of everything that has happened or might happen.

Thanks for this military tactical insight, Dr Epidemologist.

Can you answer me this, if everything is so meticulous, how come he didn't count on Mud Season in Ukraine?

Tony you talk so much waffle you haven't a clue, you pretend to know, but really you have no idea.

Where does that fit in with the great plan?
