RandomGuy. Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 There would've been a bitter kind of irony if all the focus was on Russia/Ukraine, only for India/Pakistan to be the war that starts a Nuclear Holocaust. Pakistan has a "first strike" policy in the war. If they believe India is attempting to attack or invade Pakistan, with any form of weapon, then they'll respond with nuclear weapons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said I'm surprised how far Boris has gone but then again as a man who was itching to be a Churchill figure he'll be as happy as a pig in shit even if all his donors end up penniless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvio Tattiescone Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 I read yesterday of a reported incident, no idea if it's actually true. 4 Russian tanks rolled into a Ukrainian village and parked in the centre. The soldiers got out and siphoned fuel from 2 tanks into the other 2 then they all drove away. The locals came out from their houses and put Ukrainian flags on the tanks left behind. Later that day, 2 Russian tanks came into the village and opened fire on the two tanks with Ukrainian flags on them. After they were destroyed, the Russian tanks drove through the village but one of them fell off a narrow bridge and overturned into a river, drowning the crew. Shambolic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a PG episode of " 'allo allo". A battlefield equivalent of sticking a sign on someone's back saying "kick me". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detournement Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Just straight up Holocaust denial on your prime time American telly. All the pro Nazi media over the past few weeks is becoming increasingly sinister. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your policy of not reassuring a nuclear armed power that a direct confrontation with NATO is on the cards is the worst kind of warmongering drivel. Wars are caused by the gap between rhetoric and actions. Edited March 12, 2022 by vikingTON 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So all those German Jews, socialists, communists, homosexuals, disabled, Jehovahs Witnesses, etc etc didn't speak German, having lived in Germany all their lives?

Yeah, I'm really not surprised that you went with the most fatuous, 'Dummies' Guide to International Relations' analogy. The sort of rhetoric-heavy and strategy-light chickenhawk who would have rolled tanks in to support the brave Hungarians in 1956 and lit up the globe like a Christmas tree because 'Munich or something!!!111!!.' Perhaps you could do some actual fucking reading first to check just how many sanctions and defensive military aid was provided by the West to check German aggression in the 1930s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
