Best line…”while a Royal Society study from 2001 concluded the most significant cancer risk was faced by soldiers in a tank who survived it being hit by a depleted uranium munition.”

Give the propensity for Russian tanks to toss their turrets 150ft+ in the air upon being hit, that would seem an unlikely risk.

Probably. They only need a small ceremonial force. Someone for us to wave the white flags and roll out the welcome mat for. 

To be fair, there's some on here would be gaily skipping down to the beaches to welcome them with white flags.

We've bottled it in retaliating against Russia for years, litvinenko in 2006 should've been a watershed. Its also really hard to see what either side will view as a resolution to this conflict, neither side seems to be able to advance more than a few hundred meters, or is this due to the weather amongst other factors?

1) I thought it wasn't a war in Russia's eyes?
 

Brilliant, eh? She is going on about how that nonce saved the orphaned kids from the shelling, who is committing the shelling if as you rightly pointed out it isn't a war in their eyes? The Ukrainians themselves? Deluded fuds.

Right now it isn't possible to drive vehicles across fields due to mud by all accounts so possibly so.

Not that "draft dodging" wouldn't occur in the west...

Seen that, due to the SMO, most of the forces are assigned to the Donetsk and Luhansk occupied states, with conscripts being commanded by local DPR/LPR officers who see them as cannon-fodder.

Conscripts not happy with situation...
