Russia's War Against Ukraine

[jamus34]

Why do I get a feeling the giant Z on the Russian armor just makes a convenient bullseye?

"World War Z" of course.   ;)  Without Brad Pitt...at least so far.

Ukraine will have to make due with Sean Penn for now - he's filming a documentary over there.

Not anymore...I heard he fled into Poland.

Oh :/

Maybe Baldwin going over to film a movie would scare the Russians back across the border?  :hide:

  I'd be nervous about shooting a movie with him.

Yeah, i think it was at the beginning of the invasion. As JH said, he's not there anymore.

There is so much combat aviation power over Western Europe right now. I truly wish nuclear weapons did not exist or were not part of the equation. In a conventional war, it is so blatantly clear that Russia would get obliterated. It's very frustrating that they have the nuke card.

I was reading, "Stalin's War On Japan" by Charles Stephenson last night. At the end of the war in Europe in 1945, the Russians didn't tell their soldiers they were being put on trains to go Manchuria to fight the Japanese. They thought they were going home...until the trains kept going and going and going east. So, what's old is new in Russia.

That card helped save the west during the cold war(at least part of it anyway).  Soviets could have rolled over Europe back then if it were not for our nukes. Difference now is Russia is using it as the aggressor.

True...I guess it is a double-edged sword.

The Soviets had a lot of support from the USA and Allies if i recall right. Don't think they would have been able to win a war against the US back then either.
