War in Ukraine

Sanction the **** out of them. Cut them off from the entire world and freeze anything coming in or out of that country, whether it be goods or credit.

If Vlad thinks the juice is worth the squeeze, it’s time to squeeze him really ****ing hard.

 

We haven't reached that bridge, thankfully. But there are practical challenges there that don't necessarily exist here.

 

Meanwhile, notes are being taken.
We are lost.

Fingers crossed this mess stays regional

 

Offensive cyber warfare. Take Russia offline.

 

Sadly, this will not be regional in Ukraine.



It appears from his insane war speech (that he appears to have recorded two days ago but aired during the UNSC meeting) that what Putin wants to do is install a puppet regime in Kyiv, then hold a rigged “vote” where the Ukrainian population will suddenly want to be part of Russia, a la Crimea.

 

Former PM. They have a different one now I believe.

 

His goal is to have his legacy be the reunification of mother Russia and the fatherland.

Sanctions are a joke. The only question are will the rest of the world watch it occur. Slowly. The answer is yes. And what portion of the Ukraine military and population embrace vs resist.

 

89% more of this.

 

A real GOP response rather than the Putin enabling trash.

 

On Sanctions:

 

In a sane world, if everyone cooperated. Not everyone will cooperate. As we have seen from this precipice, it is tough to deal with non rational actors.

How many plants have slowly been entrenched 8n the old com bloc countries, social media influence, etc.

I admit to being negative. And if they did work, Putin would probably get some giant concessions for returning to normal and claim victory

 

That’s a shame…let’s crater the ****ing thing.

 

President of Finland, a country that also has a remote history as part of Russia and is considered NATO membership.
