Russian invasion of Ukraine imminent, BBC reports
- Thread starter Skym
- Start date
During WW2, 4 brothers from the same Jewish family signed up to fight against the Nazis.
Only 1 survived - the grandfather of Volodymyr Zelensky, the current President of Ukraine.
It remains to be seen whether Ukraine will make it through this war as an independent autonomous country as opposed to Russian puppet, but if it does come out of this war independent and autonomous, Zelensky will be seen as the Ukrainian equivalent of what George Washington was to the USA. His face will be on Ukrainian currency, schools will be named after him, and there will be a holiday to celebrate his birthday every year, which will be a federal holiday.
Ya, I'm pretty sure Hollywood is gonna make a movie about this war a year from now. Lol
My guess, the movie will star either Matt Damon or Mark Wahlberg lol

White Phosphorous is an especially heinous weapon. There are weapons in war but WP is a unique kind of cruel.
White phosphorus is extremely toxic; the approximate fatal dose is about 50 to 100 mg. Even in very small quantities, it produces severe gastrointestinal irritation, diarrhea, and liver damage. It also causes burns when it comes in contact with skin. Chronic exposure to white phosphorus causes bony necrosis (especially of the jaw, a condition called "phossy-jaw") and anemia.
Former World Heavyweight Champion Wladimir Klitschko is pissed!!! Wow!

What's going to happen to those deported Ukrainians once they get to Russia? What are their prospects?
Not to be understated but there are thousands of foreign fighters currently volunteering for Ukraine in this war. This video provides an example of the countless foreigners who come to Ukraine to fight
And believe me, the volunteers are coming from everywhere!

The Doomsday Clock now is the closest to midnight in human history. Below is the graph that ends in 2020 and it was about 100s before Midnight. They say it is about 30 seconds now. We have never been so close before.
What would you do if the nuclear catastrophe starts to be almost inevitable? Do you have any plans for this? Have an orgy with 3 girls and than drive out of the city? Send family away but stay and continue to indulge with girls , drugs etc.? Pray?

Are you aware that 50% of the Mariopol population are Russians. Most want to go back
Ethnically Russians and Ukrainians are practically indistinguishable. The language is also not directly related to the identification as many Ukrainians have Russian as the first language and many Russians living in Ukraine are fluent in Ukrainian. So, it is mostly political self-identification.
300 Ukrainians killed in Russian airstrike on Mariupol theatre, say officials - National | Globalnews.ca
About 300 people died in a Russian airstrike last week on a theatre being used as a bomb shelter in the besieged Ukrainian city of Mariupol, the city’s government said.
globalnews.ca
Ukrainian authorities in the besieged ruins of Mariupol said Friday that about 300 people died when a Russian airstrike blew up a theatre where hundreds of civilians were sheltering — a catastrophic loss of civilian life that, if confirmed, is likely to further crank up pressure on western nations to step up military aid.
In a vain attempt to protect those inside the grand, columned theatre from missile and airstrikes that Russia has rained down on cities, an enormous inscription reading “CHILDREN” in Russian was posted outside the building and was visible from the air.

We reached an entryway, and armored cars whisked us to a darkened basement. Only then did we learn from a policeman why the Ukrainians had risked the lives of soldiers to extract us from the hospital.
“If they catch you, they will get you on camera and they will make you say that everything you filmed is a lie,” he said. “All your efforts and everything you have done in Mariupol will be in vain.”
The officer, who had once begged us to show the world his dying city, now pleaded with us to go. He nudged us toward the thousands of battered cars preparing to leave Mariupol.
It was March 15. We had no idea if we would make it out alive.

These are the exact arguments Putin has made for invading Ukraine in the first place- and "reuniting" it with "Greater Russia"
