    ... seems Putin is itching for a fight with the US (by extension also the West). I believe he believes in partnership with China, Iran and possibly with North Korea, he has necessary capabilities of subduing all and sundry. Pelosi visiting Taiwan has been condemned by Russia and at the same time accusing the US of directly being involved in his war with Ukraine.

    He can't even handle Ukraine man, He would have his arse ****ing handed to him before the others could even lace their gloves up. North Korea would be subdued quicker than a Mackem in pre season and Iran would get ****ing blown away by our illustrious owners. Leaving China who would economically **** themselves quicker Jake Paul facing a real boxer.

    his army has been battered and he’s now resorting to using soviet era weapons.

    They’re a Poundland superpower whereas most of the west, especially the US is Fortnum and Mason.

    All the superpowers know that if they let loose with nuclear then planet earth is gone for everyone.
    Hopefully Putin's advisors will keep the lunatic off the buttons.

    Yeah, it ain't gonna be WW3, if things get serious then it's just gonna be Putin and Russia getting annihilated.

    I had the exact same thoughts in the shower this morning.

    Hopefully everyone on every side realizes that WW3 wouldn't be worth it, and to end this **** and find a compromise.

    Or everyone realises "lets do what we should have done and march troops into Moscow" That will sharp clear them out of Ukraine.

    If it weren't for China, I'd agree, but my worry is China will side with Russia, and that makes it difficult.

    China couldn't afford the economic backlash from being closed to the world never mind anything else. Tanks and missiles made out of Balsa wood may look impressive for the TV audiences but don't pack much punch.

    Ummm..... Yeah.

    It will just be the US and the rest of Europe flattening Russia, it won't be a "war" so much as them being crushed.

    China currently getting extremely annoyed about Nancy Pelosi in Taiwan. Expect some fireworks there over the next few days.

    Must be Americans showing they're not afraid.

    Russia has had to work very hard to compete with Ukraine, China just says "we vewwy mad", so it kind of paints a picture that these two nations aren't really as powerful as some people think

    The worlds heating up, the waters rising, the USA are prodding the Chinese, Russia has angered everyone and Iran and North Korea are in the process of making missiles...

    According to the Doomsday Clock we are 100 seconds from midnight. (100/86,400)

    Enjoy it while it lasts...
