I was there yesterday and I am going back today. Traunreut is about the largest city I will tolerate these days but it has its charms in the old part of town. I have photographs of the town bombed out in the war and now rebuilt.

You’ve “got it”!
Well, I’ve wandered around too.
Philippines for 20+ years, off and on, still live there part of the year.
Most of East Asia. Hongkong - we used to run over there for Christmas shopping every year. Its almost a day trip from Manila. Singapore, Taipei, Seoul, Tokyo; Sydney/Brisbane - about half our relatives are Australian these days.
We used to go to London every year for a while there, as wife and daughter are great Anglophiles. Germany, for business, I had great dealings with Siemens, also Zeiss, and a lot of companies out of the mittelstand. Not a lot of people go to Traunreut! I was just at Dusseldorff last year for some professional obligations. And so forth.
Etc and etc.
Europe if I had to pick
England just cause I’m 98% dna Wessex and Scotland and both Irish which means we’re distant kin thru Galician celts maybe
Easy for southerners like me in England
Then Italy or Spain tied
France cause well it is France and so pretty
Even if not super congenial
Spain for castles and the mujeres
Sin pregunta
Deslumbrante in Portuguese
Andalusia maybe along with Milan and Stockholm too
Mi ex esposa fue do Brasil

Putin got crazy.
He is pulling world into WWIII.
We better start getting ready for it!
Like filling up the Strategic petroleum reserve.

China’s eyeing our depleted Strategic Oil Reserves, our shrinking artillery supply, our lessened ability to defend Taiwan—and rubbing their hands...
The only GOOD Russian is a DEAD Russian, but rape their women first, lol
It seems that the Pentagon [likely captured by Big Arms] is in charge of Ukraine Policy.
The Ukes are useless sponges.
So Poland can reclaim its old territory as well. Eukraine would be a sliver, probably should be. Biden and son would loose how much revenue?
...followed shortly thereafter by Moscow.
And we are not even allowed to know the names of their puppet handlers.
I agree. We should keep arming Ukraine and make sure they can out gun Ukraine.
Putin is committing genocide against his own people.
Even with 300,000 more troops they are outnumbered and outgunned in Ukraine and Ukraine has better intelligence and better logistics than Russia.
The "Partial mobilization" is open ended. There is no end specified. There is no limit to how many men they will draft.
I agree. We should be stockpiling ATACMS in Poland and other areas in Europe.
We were withholding long range missiles from Ukraine because we didn't want them attacking Russia proper. I understand, that would give Russia the legal excuse according to Russian law to declare war and do a full mobilization.
But this mobilization is open ended, It's not limited to 300,000 so it might as well be considered a full mobilization.
And with Russia about to claim annexation of Ukraine's territories, why continue to distinguish between Russia proper and the Ukrainian territories.
I'd bomb every train and military vehicle coming within 50 miles of Ukraine. There is no reason to wait until Russia's forces enter Ukraine.
Wow!!!
We may not have anyone with authority to launch. That may be good but it is definitely bad.
No doubt.
