It's quite interesting how you write Ukraine with a small U, but don't forget to put the capital N in front of Nazi. I'll give you the benefit of doubt that this is an honest typo mistake.

but this wasn't about that, I just saw they were hosting an "anti-fascist conference" and figured it was a good thing. i guess they've just used the label "anti-fascist" to justify their own actions. | | | | | Good idea, maybe they could start with the Serbian Jovan Sevic Unit who are fighting with the separatists in Eastern Ukraine.

I´m not.
This probably won´t happen, however it´s the "probably" that worries me. | | | | | I am also very worried and hope very much that this will never happen.
But why do we take as a given that this would bring the world to the end? We know that this happened once already and the world survived. Some crazy aggressors might think that they might be able to do it again and win the war. I am not sure that all military players view a nuclear war as impossible scenario, and it worries the hell out of me. The war must stop now!

As JackieH rightfully pointed earlier, putler doesn't have much to lose and is probably more trigger-happy than initially estimated.

Actually, in the event of a nuclear attack, the official Civil Defence advice is - Bend over
- Put your head between your knees
- Kiss your ass goodbye.

From Twitter: | Quote: |  | | | I have bad news for the good-hearted people out there who dont want Ukrainians to die, who dont want the rest of Europe to get dragged into a bigger military conflict, and who dont want sanctions because they hurt Russians.

The Polish border guards are acting pretty much like master-race Nazis by preventing, sometimes with force, the entry into Poland of African and Indian students who were studying in Ukraine's Universities.
