This is sickening. Now they are threatening one of the most peaceful nations out there. :crazy:

 

 

Twitter shut down Donald Trump, but the Russians are free to use it to threaten all their neighbours.

I don’t think this is good news at all. If Putin’s attack starts to go seriously off-timetable he’s simply going to retaliate with massive bombardments on civilians. Like the Kaiser in Belgium 1914.

Told you so. Putin cannot afford to be humiliated & will kill as many as necessary to prevent it.

German troops (around 200 soldiers + system Patriot missile defence) will arrive to Slovakia..yeah, well, this sound weird :p, as they once were here too ...

 

 

but yeah, times moved and honestly now I feel million times safer having GER and USA army in my streets than having Russia as neighbor

Putin stated all American invasions in recent history including Iraq , Libya , Syria , this guy isn't stupid at all and knows very well what he's doing AND REFUSES TO BE ISOLATED or humilated , i hope his agony won't hurt civilians much , cuz this world really doesn't need more wars and more deaths

Two observations:

 

- Interestingly, nary a peep from one of the biggest Putin fans in this forum.
- Secondly, to those posters from the Magreb who cheer on Russia: I get you hate the US. You really do. But I assume you wouldn't be happy if a regional power attacked your country. So it is one thing to hate the USA and other is to cheer on another country invading its neighbor.

The catastrophic mistake of Iraq 2003 and Libiya 2011 does not excuse what is happening now

Also worth remembering that the consensus in the US is that the 2003 Iraq war was a colossal mistake. The people who cheered it on at the time were very wrong to do so. Feel free to learn from our mistakes.

    • has 2 wins already  Not bad for complete minnows!
    • Your most ever at a Summer Olympics was 14 golds, 20 would be a big increase even with the new sports  I’d say out of them, only costal rowing has a chance of gold, and flag football a medal if they can qualify.    Wouldn’t breaking the 14 from 1984 be a good for Italy? I’d say so. They can’t all convert after all, and you’ve been hovering in the 8-13 range for a while (although Italy has gotten better the past two)   For Canada at least, 11+ golds would be amazing, anything else would be a bonus. We won 9 in Tokyo which is our highest total ever. 
    • Personally, I'm really looking forward to Japan's performance in the World Cup. From the current situation, Japan has a very distinctive playing style. They have strong tactical ideas whether facing European teams or South American teams. However, Japan has never won a knockout match in the World Cup. As someone who has been following Asian football for a long time, I really admire Japanese football.
    • Italy didn't qualify again.    Well, now all that's left is for Germany to be eliminated again in the group stage and we'll guarantee another 4 years of "Brazil, the only five-time champion in history, nobody is bigger than Brazil, respect our history and blah blah" that we use on the internet.
    • Failing to qualify for the World Cup once can be put down to bad luck or other reasons, but missing out three times in a row must be due to an all-round gap. I feel sorry for Italy.
    • Italians can only blame themselves. Serie A has been run by foreigners more than any other Top 5 domestic league. There are zero global stars not named Donnarumma. This is the weakest Italian crop of players I can remember and it's not even close.   As for Poland, our defense did a terrible job. Unlike the much-maligned Michniewicz & Probierz who often parked the bus, Urban completely run out of BS luck since errors proved too numerous & too costly.
    • Okay, but defeats to Macedonia and Bosnia are unacceptable. Above all, let Italians start playing in Italian clubs... Look at Milan or Como...  Another think is the old and ugly stadiums - Türkiye or Poland currently have much better infrastructure than we do.
    • Problem is, that the current funding system of Italian sports - since 2018- relies on football paying the lion's share through taxes (around 70% of the sum that is redistributed). So the rest is strong until it can draw money from football, which in turn makes football weaker and less able to generate money and then who knows. 
    • I prefer our current strong sport at all and weak football than a lucky promotion and defeat at the World Cup, as in 2010 or 2014. Sinner, Brignone, or Antonelli are worth 100 times more than losers like Bastoni.
    • if tonight's humiliation means 20+ gold and 50+ total medals in 2 years time in LA, I'll take it 1 billion times    and I'd never change the emotions of the 2 Olympic weeks in Milan (and the other sites) with just another average soccer world cup
