Between mud season and all the anti-tank weaponry Russian armor has nowhere to hide. Will be hard for Russia to win the war by May 9 and their annual 'Victory Day' military parade.

Zelensky is a Slavic masculine surname. Its Russian version originates from the toponym Zelyonoe, meaning “green”.

Zelensky always wears green, who else wears green? The third horseman of the apocalypse.

"The third Horseman rides a black horse and is popularly understood to be Famine, as the Horseman carries a pair of balances or weighing scales (Greek ζυγὸν, zygon), indicating the way that bread would have been weighed during a famine.[29] In the passage, it is read that the indicated price of grain is about ten times normal, with an entire day's wages (a denarius) buying enough wheat for only one person (one choenix, about 1.1 litres), or enough of the less nutritious barley for three, so that workers would struggle to feed their families.[4] In the Gospels, the denarius is repeatedly mentioned as a monetary unit, for example the denarius was the pay of a soldier for one day and the day labor of a seasonal worker in the harvesting of grapes is also valued at 1 denarius (Matthew 20:2). Thus, it is probably a fact that with the approach of the Apocalypse, the most necessary food will rise in price greatly and the wages earned per day will be enough only for the minimum subsistence for the same day and nothing more".

I'm sure it's just a coincidence that Joe Biden is now talking about food shortages

I imagine our politicians, who have been stealing public funds for decades leaving a £5 trillion
pension deficit and public services like the NHS broke, will be smarter than taking it through a border in cash form

Don’t be worrying about pension deficits Alex, we now simply offset it by sticking people with COVID into care homes… problem solved. If that doesn’t work, use a second pandemic or the multiple variants from the original pandemic and keep sticking those infected into those homes that are filled with state pension, energy absorbing pond life.

If all else fails, steal their woollen leg blankets…

How did I end up on this trail of thought, thanks Alex.

5. Maybe he’s with the other Russian lads in a Ukrainian town on a night out doing a Rooney and banging them grannies.

6. Who knows, who will ever know for sure.

Russian Armed Forces Chief of Staff Valery Gerasimov has also not been seen in public since 11th March.

I wonder if Putin has removed them all ?

Not sure, we can all but wonder I suppose. I guess judging by the 40 mile dildo (convoy) that Putin has held back, ready to plunge up the arse of the Ukraine as and when he feels, it’s not that significant to him.

The book “The Art of Strategy” is a great read. Chapter 9.

One thing I'm sure about. This Russia is not what Lenin and Trotsky envisaged. Olgarchs etc while the economy tanks hurting the average Russian. And pretty sure Gorbachev is less than chuffed.
Still don't get this. So simple. Table, sit around it, thrash things out, compromise. Done.
But no, lets fipping blow each other up for a bit. Fuck me!!

When Putin gives the order to fire nukes he won't have any generals left to chain the command!
