The fruits and nuts in the bowl are already rallying to KGB Vlad. How unsurprising.
The Ukrainian information operations have been remarkably effective. Only those who are there watching know what is really happening.

Here's a thought exercise to help you think. If Louisiana had broken away from the US 30 years ago, controlled the mouth of the Mississippi River and all shipping traffic, and was currently being recruited into an economic and defense alliance with the Soviet union would America invade and be willing to break everything in Texas to get it Louisiana?
I would really love to hear your thoughts.
. . . except no time traveler is going to come back just before the deed to save all mankind.
Chernobyl was on the main invasion route to Kyiv from Belarus. It’s a Kyiv suburb You can see it on the map. Naturally, the Ukrainians never guessed anybody would be insane enough to attack a city of 4 million through that nuke waste dump. Putinist Russia hits bottom and keeps digging. Sad.
The Simpsons had an episode like this one..5 minutes til core meltdown..and Homer was the only one that turned it off(Eenie meenie miney moo method) hey it worked
If you follow Twitter the fighting around Energodar where the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant is has been going on for hours or at this point a day. I hope that the damage is minimal, but I suspect the city Energodar will surrender soon.
Marco Rubio is AN IDIOT. What may well be on fire are the concentric rows of mounded old tires and other junk the locals put down as barriers. If so, the people who set them on fire didn’t think of the deadly and ground hugging thick black smoke that would be produced.
Nice sentiment but not true. Russia does not loose loose nukes until some pays for them.
Never underestimate the level of stupidity among us humans.
The Russians have been avoiding the utilities around Ukraine so they do not have spend billions to rebuild.
So why would they shell a nuclear power plant? That does not make sense.
Who gains and who loses from this?
the market thinks its real...its up a little off the lows.
Naw, the blue paper ones are fine!
That is an honest, reasoned opinion that I can respect even though I do not agree. I appreciate it.
Fire at administrative offices.
It would appear that Putin is trying to red herring his ‘nuclear’ promise, not by firing an actual nuke, but by blowing up Ukraine’s own nuclear power plants, the poisoning of Russian territory itself, as well as anyone downwind for a thousand miles, be damned.
The closed circuit video shown on CNN clearly shows fire-at-will from the surrounding Ruskie forces, aimed not only at the support structures/buildings (two of which are clearly on fire) but at the towers themselves.
—> Right now, only objective Russian military could have is to cut off electric power to large swaths of Ukraine.
The emotional impact alone is pretty big.

I’m guessing that you’re not aware that Chernobyl has been a POPULAR TOURIST DESTINATION for over a decade now?
