Having gamed out the various scenarios on this, my best case and what I felt was the likeliest outcome was Oligarchs being hammered, not getting to enjoy the cushty lives and facing severe hardship, and one of them taking out Putin on the understanding that they will be left to enjoy their ill gotten gains until they expire. Second likeliest outcome is Vlad ending us all mind you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God, thats one video I wish I could unhear. I've seen my fair share of dark shit on the internet but jesus christ. Also if you do happen upon it, the son gets killed later. Well I know what happens now! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaspianChris Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Saw that earlier as well massively heartbreaking to see. There was one video I came across this morning now deleted I believe of a pensioner who had the bottom of her left leg sliced off completely absolutely horrendous. Looked liked people had moved her up against the side of a building for shelter but it left a horrible streak of blood from the severed limb. There was a shot of wreckage of the weapon that had caused the horrendous injury and then some way off the severed bottom of leg and foot dreadfully mangled. 29 minutes ago, Lofarl said: That video of the father and dog getting killed in front of his son.

I haven't seen these vids but they will encapsulate the utter horrors of war. Not only does it involve destruction and suffering on a monumental scale but chillingly it frequently also creates in the active participants a vacuum of morality which sucks out their basic humanity. What follows is utter debasement. We should remember this every time a gung-ho individual who has never experienced anything more violent than a Greggs queue hyperventilates before us in the media. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TommyDickFingers Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 1 hour ago, Florentine_Pogen said: If Putin keeps up the nuke rhetoric and keeps on targeting urban / residential areas with battlefield munitions, is there any possibility that his generals / chiefs of staff could just refuse to obey and tell him to GTF? IMO no. I hope I'm wrong but I fear its going to get a whole lot worse for places like Kyiv once they decide to unleash the whole gamut of their conventional forces. There was an interview on C4 earlier with a Russian International relations expert with close ties to Putins circle who touches on the nuclear rhetoric bit you mentioned, the tl;dr of which was he doesn't think he will use nukes because Nato and the US are not stupid enough to make him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
