Have heard that the hacker collective known as Anonymous have declared cyber war on Putin and anything Russian owned is fair game. Anyone have Kapersky security? The mainstream US media see this as an opportunity to spread fear over retaliation from Russian hackers.

All we need now is for 4Chan to get involved and its game over.

 

P&B to spam Russian football websites with Spiderman and Ainsley Harriott memes.

There's probably none quite so stupid and desperate to make itself a historical martyr yet again as Poland though. 

Poland has a land border with Belarus and looms over the key Baltic base of Kaliningrad. Those are two  potential tripwires that can set off WW3. It should therefore be nowhere near offering military aid: Poland is already doing its role in a NATO capacity by simply keeping its borders open for refugees and as a conduit for supplies. 

Poland and other neighbouring states can supply credits to Ukraine's government to purchase equipment from a third country if they want to affect the military situation. That degree of plausible deniability is crucial to lower the risk of the conflict escalating. 

My point was more with regard to the ability procure locally these air assets(F-16) if NATO decided it was a viable option.

I'm aware of the geography but isn't Poland pretty much a logistics hub already for arms into Ukraine? The need for plausible deniability, whilst I agree makes perfect sense politically would appear less important in the real world as Polish/American/British amongst others ATGM and MANPADS are destroying Russian assets daily.

Speaking of which, talk of Britain sending the Starstreak system over.

So if Zelensky does agree to 'no NATO' and recognises Donbas and Crimea as Russian, what happens next? ...

Probably a huge argument over whether recognising Donbas as Russian means the 2014 contact line or the entire oblasts. Putin probably wants/needs a face-saving exit but seeing will be believing at this point.

US polling company has surveyed Ukrainians for their views on those leaders and institutions.

Ah, cheers.  Goes along with a tweet I shared in here yesterday.  It seems there isn't a lot of knowledge on our reluctance to allow them to come here which would change it.

True enough, their Air force seems completely useless.

Imagine people actually selecting the “somewhat unfavourable” option for putin.

It’s the people who replied that they’d never heard of him that I admire.

I was amazed that Hibs casual ended up with a gun but it turns out he had been in the Paras. I don’t think the Ukrainians have any time to be training people.

All coming out now from the most corrupt European country Ukraine.  Current puppet American back president is worth over 1 billion dollars with numerous homes all around the world,  guess how he accumulated that wealth in less than three years. 

Numerous American backed biological sites on the Ukraine Russia border ready to unleash hall sorts of genocide on Russia. 

Everyday it becomes more and more apparent people are being gaslit here into believing this conflict is all one way. 

Sickening to see. 

 

Hello Russian bot.

I guess P&B hasn't been blocked by the Kremlin yet.
