A Russian column was obliterated and corpses were seen lying beside the road. The remains of the Russian military convoy blocked a street in the town of Bucha after the ambush - said to have been carried out by troops armed with NLAW missile launchers.
Artillery and drone strikes are also thought to have been deployed in the attack. Locals civilians are also reported to have helped fight the invaders by throwing petrol bombs.
Down from $9 a couple of days ago.
Think it will be delisted? They Cancel everything else.
I hope not. But delisting does not extinguish the shares just makes them harder to sell in the US. Of course, Putin could nationalize the company I suppose. But there are a lot of people with the shares who Putin cares about.
Schwab banned trading in the US about an hour ago. It will still be available on the foreign markets but I am just going to hold with what I have and let it sort itself out.
What makes you think the Ukrainians wouldn't use nuclear weapons if they had them?
The Russians would not have launched an attack if a possible response was a nuclear bomb landing on Moscow.
Too bad the Ukrainians don’t have a wing of A 10s and logistics.

“What makes you think the Ukrainians wouldn’t use nuclear weapons if they had them?”
Again, World War III. Russia’s desire to control Ukraine could cause a misunderstanding (in your fictional world) and boom. It doesn’t matter who launches first.
Just like Iran and North Korea getting nukes, the odds of a series of nuclear launches increase drastically.
“This is definitely fake news. If they were using Brit anti-tank weapons, half of them wouldn’t work.”
I didn’t know Joe Lucas made weapons. I thought he stuck to motorcycles, cars and refrigerators.
Haven’t seen Gutfeld in a couple days. He mentions his MIL is in Kiev
That may be true, but now that the promises to protect Ukraine that were made in exchange for giving up their weapons in 1994 have proven to be worthless no other nation will be inclined to any agreement where they give up their nuclear weapons.
Some of them have an intense hatred of the US and intense hatred of the international community helping the one being invaded by a more powerful country in a war.
Except, many here won’t accept truth and deny reality.
Classic Red pill/ Blue pill, and I’ve never seen the movie.
Them?
You did not identify “who”.
Ukraine is not run by Nazi’s. The Nazi’s are in the WEF and the Globalist Banks. Some of those in WEF have generations of complicity.
I was replying to your question about the Serbs.
My view of Putin is that he came to power seeking to be a reformer and to bring Russia into closer alignment with the west, as Yeltsin had wanted to do but lacked the full package of political skills. Remember that at one time Putin asked for Russia to be included in NATO eventually, and visited GWB at his ranch in Texas.
Fairly soon afterwards, the Syrian civil war caused Russia to become interlinked with El Assad and this caused the whole western rapprochement to fall apart because of our rather brain-dead foreign policy (supporting El Assad seems to many to be the best of the bad options available in Syria unless you could somehow hand the place over to some liberal London shopkeepers and wave a magic wand so that Arabs and Muslims would stop killing each other).
So over the rest of Putin’s tenure (which is more or less about 20 years, when Medvedev was nominally in charge he answered to Putin) he has drifted away from being even slightly interested in liberalizing Russia and he appears to have swallowed a full dose of the most stringent globalism equals fascism paradigm, which is rather ironic to me because I see globalism as the natural inheritor of Soviet ideology and isn’t that now what Vladimir Putin in his old age dreams of recreating?
Some have more accurately said that the conflict is a dispute among leftists about which leftists should profit.
But there is also a reality embedded in this business that Ukraine rapidly transformed into a fairly standard European parliamentary democracy (with all the warts that they all have) and was culturally integrated into Europe, whereas Russia continues to be regarded as an outsider, backward in some ways, and corrupt. Perhaps Ukraine was equally corrupt, some elements at least wanted to do business with globalist criminal elements.
Putin appears to have medical issues. It is a well known fact that a brain tumor can cause paranoid delusions and shifts in perception. I think the man might be in some alternate reality where he actually thinks that time has cycled back to 1943 and it time to push west again to chase the Nazis back to their source. This time the source could be anywhere that globalists are in power. I worry that a person in that state could decide there is nothing to lose by starting a wider conflict with all that might entail.
If you disagree, fine. My advice would be, read up on radiation potential in the event of a global nuclear exchange, it isn’t what you might expect, just confined to the big cities. After a while, it would be partially dependent on luck of the draw in weather patterns, but the heaviest radiation in North America would likely be in the central and northern plains states (because of targeting choices). Pray a lot and/or hope that saner heads prevail. If anyone thinks this is some grand adventure with Hunter Biden’s undeniable guilt the big trophy on the 18th green, well guess what, that ceremony might be postponed a few decades until our descendants (all ten of them) can assemble in one place and give it the consideration it will deserve at that time.
(the above is irony, but there are other elements less friendly to the human body)
Salvage everything they can get out of those vehicles. This may be a long drawn out process.
People mistakenly view Putin as representing nationalism instead of globalism. In a way he does, but he’s also a commie thug. It’s related to political strategy by Alexandr Dugin (”Putin’s brain”)
Hopefully he doesn’t decided to take out the source of those weapons.
Same suspect photo. Same lack of impact on overhanging limbs of trees and surrounding houses. If you’re going to cat-fish us with photo-shopped images, and least use something new.
I’m no Putin supporter, but we’ve seen this exact photo before, and it’s still an obvious photo-shop, for the reasons I just stated.
