    Just leave me in charge of the buttons mate, that's all I need. First target Moscow, booom. You have to have balls of steel in this game.

    Think they’ve all broken down or run out of petrol haven’t they? With any luck they’ll give up soon, and start walking back to Moscow.

    I wouldn't be fooking about with Putin that's for sure. The only risk is I might get the buttons mixed up and Nuke America first, but we could just call that collateral damage.

    I used to think my sleepy corner of the world would be well off the list of targets for a nuke

    Turns out it's actually one of the hottest spots on the map <yikes>

    And it ain't coz brb blames Cornwall for the world's problems either.

    That's games going on there. There's no way they'll be bumper to bumper with soldiers and artillery for 40 mile.

    Rommel tactics going on. He was a master of making the German offensives seem way bigger and menacing than they actually were. I wouldn't be surprised if more than half of the vehicles were just empty duds.

    Funny you should say that. I read this from Patrick Mercer a couple of weeks ago, talking about Ruskie operations last year.

    "The West believed Russia intended to mount an amphibious operation to seize Ukrainian soil around Odessa and grab water supplies vital for the Crimea.

    Certainly, over 150,000 troops were deployed and armour was said to be ready for blitzkreig which could even thrust towards Kiev.

    The trouble was the troops massed, manoeuvred and then goose-stepped back to barracks whilst much of the hardware proved to be inflatable decoys!"

    There is a very simple tactic used in taking out a column of enemy vehicles, if you have the planes to do it. A10 tank busters and Rapter fighters as air cover

    Take out the front couple of rows and a couple of the rears rows and a couple of the middle rows with the first strike, leaves the rest with nowhere to go but off road where they can be picked of at will

    Or for maximum fear effect on a straight road frontal attack using the modern gattling (Vulcan) guns tearing every thing and everyone to shreds

    One pass should be enough to totally demoralise conscript soldiers who dont even know why they are there

    If you remember the first desert war against Iraq, the column of retreating vehicles and soldiers trying to get back to Iraq were totally annihilated and protests from the American public prevented Bush senior from completing the job, which off course led directly to the second Iraq war which the world is still paying for now with the Middle East carnage

    No-one wants that level of death and destruction but will Putin pay heed to anything else

    The other option would be the Air Wolf (remember that series) flying in under the radar, hovering in front the Kremlin with a simple message for Putin,. pull out or kiss your arse goodbye

    You think you have problems I live 2 miles from HMS Warrior, the UK NATO headquarters and on the same ground level, at least all I would see would be a flash of light and not have to try and survive with mutant humans and cockroaches

    Nigerian medical student Jessica Orakpo tells the BBC about her ordeal and the racism she experienced as she attempted to leave Ukraine following Russia's invasion.

    Based in the western city of Ternopil, she first tried to reach the Polish border on foot - but in the end she took a train to Hungary.

    She describes the discrimination she and other Africans have faced from Ukrainian officials

    I like your style Duggie, I've got no time for this pissing about with Putin. There are many things I agree with Putin on, but going down the road he has, he needs his backside kicked and kicked hard. It's the only way someone like him will learn. People say he's a madman, well the only way to show a madman is to show you are even crazier, and the fooker will never ever pick a fight again.
