Maybe the WWIII thread (soon) (Ukraine)
« on: February 23, 2022, 11:01:37 pm »

Yeah, that... probably needs a dedicated thread. Definitely don't have the energy to make one, though.

Might as well move it over here. Ukraine under attack now, WWIII begins I guess. Posts should go here instead of ameripol I guess.

Perhaps rename the thread Ukraine war thread.
It's not WW3 yet.

Kyiv under attack, we'll see if UN will actually do anything for once or if we're getting a League of Nations situation. Evidently Russia's currently the one in the president of the security council position so my prediction is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVueEr6GnHI

WWII-relevant bit, claim that US E-4B Nightwatch stuff is up in the air. EDIT: Tweet is old so not actually relevant, lel.

Perhaps rename the thread Ukraine war thread.

Yet.

Putin announced that Russia is conducting a military operation to 'demilitarize and denazificate Ukraine'

Putin also issued a warning: “Anyone who tries to interfere with us, or even more so, to create threats for our country and our people, must know that Russia’s response will be immediate and will lead you to such consequences as you have never before experienced in your history.”

Yeah, chances are if the sanctions actually do literally anything useful we'll probably be changing the name of the thread soon.

Woe to those who make unjust laws, to those who issue oppressive decrees, to deprive the poor of their rights and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people, making widows their prey and robbing the fatherless. What will you do on the day of reckoning, when disaster comes from afar?

Stay safe Max, don't let yourself be mobilized into the army and sent to the front as meat shield.

If I were a Russian within conscription age, I would go into hiding or flee the country like, right now.
