You'll be back, eh?
(Shrugs and goes away.)
Still here, but moved along the road, away from the rambling, possibly dangerous man at the bus stop, as there's nobody else about on the street And it's late and gone dark.You'll be back, eh?
I can still hear him, even though I'm skulking in a shop doorway. And still no sign of a bus. Might flag down a black cab if one comes along.I assume the answer is yes. Given your lack of ability to answer a straight question, but going on with tireless spam-fest.
'Phew,' says our (anti) hero.Sorry you've lost me.

He stressed that Russia’s President Vladimir Putin seems very secure in his position, observing:It’s very unlikely to work until – and unless – Russia sees advantage in doing that. And so were Russia to decide it has gone as far as it wants to, or can, in the Donbas, it might try and make a virtue of letting people out of cities like this, so that they no longer are a threat to them, and they no longer have to look after them.
Barrons said that Russia’s action would have to prompt a strategic rethink from Nato, telling viewers:This isn’t a war just between Putin and Ukraine. This is a war where a large number of the Russian population genuinely supports it. It’s a combination of the information that they receive, and also their view of Russian history and Russia’s place in the world. This is not just a war with a small clique in the Kremlin.
He suggested that western countries needed to offer further military support to Ukraine, saying:In the short to medium term, Nato is revitalising itself because it’s seen what Russia is really like under Putin and what it’s capable of doing. So it’s going to reset the conventional defence and deterrence of Europe, with the new members as they line up.
I think everyone has to be impressed by the spirit of national resistance we’ve seen from Ukraine. We should recognise they knew this day would come. They knew Russians would invade again after 2014. And we should also recognise that that we simply failed to give them the military means they needed to deter and defeat that invasion. And now we’re all playing catch up.
but what do you think?In the UK, the former Commander Joint Forces Command of the British army, Gen Richard Barrons, has been interviewed by Sky News about the current situation in Ukraine. He had this to say on the prospect for humanitarian corridors out of Sievierodonetsk, where some 10,000 civilians are said to be trapped:

Nowt, apart from the fact that he seems to agree with me about the stupidy and naivety of assuming the war is all about just Putin, launched on his whim alone.but what do you think?
I linked to those articles as some people at least might find them interesting or want to debate the points. As I said last night.RD2003, what do you think? What's with this copy and paste, emboldening fest? If you want to add a link and your thoughts on it, great. But this ^ is just pointless really.
It's pointless and irritating though. And no-one's going to read all that copy and pasted text.I linked to those articles as some people at least might find them interesting or want to debate the points. As I said last night.
I haven't commented, as they pretty much agree with what I've been arguing, over several threads, for months.
I don't see how you can know who is or isn't reading what.It's pointless and irritating though. And no-one's going to read all that copy and pasted text.
i'd rather read teuchter's tosh, which at least he's come up with himself, than your dreadful litany of cut and past shit, you've not a thought of your ownI don't see how you can know who is or isn't reading what.
And it's no more pointless or irritating than the regurgitated hand-wringing and 'rah rah rah the war' stuff that certain posters have been indulging in since before the invasion itself.
You don't have to read anything you don't want to though.
i wish i could say that was the truth but the way you carry on posting other people's thoughts without showing either agreement or dissent with their views suggests that's not the case for you, you post up ream after ream of verbiage which adds fuck all to the threadSome people may feel the need to comment on absolutely everything. It's how you take your posts into the hundreds of thousands, I suppose. Others are able to rein in their inner windbag.
I thought teuchter was urban’s main anti-hero.
Maybe stop coming on the thread, or add something of your own? At least half of your near quarter of a million posts must surely be just moaning about other posters you could easily ignore.i wish i could say that was the truth but the way you carry on posting other people's thoughts without showing either agreement or dissent with their views suggests that's not the case for you, you post up ream after ream of verbiage which adds fuck all to the thread
If you were in a country and one of your neighbouring countries invaded and threatened to wipe you and your culture off the map, as Russia has done.
Firstly would you be bothered?
Secondly, would you care where the help came from to try and push back the aggressor?
Thirdly, Your country has been invaded by another country. Are you going appreciate that the sentiment from some people in safe countries is that the countries giving help are being blamed for the death of your friends and family and not the country that is shelling you?
I assume you aren't going to answer this, or just give some vague answer about having answered it already.
