military targets :rolleyes:

Well, the entire thing does show ukraine were absolutely justified in wanting NATO membership. You have to wonder if Putin would have done this if they were, knowing the NATO alliance would wade in?

To SISU investors, probably.

It's not a defence. It's a deterrent. You need to learn the difference. Our nuclear capability makes people think twice about nuking us. It deters them. But once that bomb is on the way Trident offers NO defence at all. It won't stop that bomb reaching us, it won't limit the destruction it...

There's the Nick we know and love "get a reducer in early doors"

I specifically say in my post you quoted if we don't have them we're at the mercy of others. But the facts about them being old and expensive is true. But they are better than nothing. It's not just nuclear we need to worry about. Salisbury has already shown us they're quite willing to unleash...

It reduces it certainly. It removes it right until the point someone uses them. I think some people expect everyone is sane and rational.

There's the halftime entertainment. Instead of trying to kick a ball in the net from different distances get people to snort lines. Start with 6 yard line, 18 yard line, then halfway.

What did I come in this thread for?

With the rest O'Hare thing I can see the point. He is integral to a lot of our attacking play but we don't really make much headway early on in games. So for him to be more effective and give him a rest, I would consider Allen and Maatsen to start a game, make sure we set a solid foundation and...

It's not a defence, it's a deterrent. If a nuke is sent by Russia Trident has failed. It will not protect anyone from the effects of that attack. All we could do is fire some back before we got obliterated to destroy parts of Russia as retaliation. As much as I wish such weapons didn't exist...

I've always taken the title as being sarcastic and more about Putin's mindset. If they genuinely thought the USSR existed then the title makes no sense, because Ukraine was part of it.

Come on. In the space of days the Taliban had retaken the country. And it's not like they're a well-trained, heavily-armed huge group with the latest technology and weaponry and backed financially by a superpower. It was a colossal fuck-up.

I sort of agree with you but for many in the upper echelons, especially the likes of JRM, Brexit was all about greed and corruption. Being able to do things that are potentially risky through deregulation that the pesky EU would never allow them to do. We've actively encouraged the investment...

Agreed. And that's not a warming thought either. Xi has the potential to be as bad. Arguably even more control over the population than Putin, and certainly willing to remove any dissenters. So if we're relying on Chinese help eventually, they'll undoubtedly demand things like total control of...

Probably, but given his absolute control he has over information to the Russian people it would jut martyr him and make them feel the entire world is against them. Like in Communist Russia there will always be someone waiting in the wings to take over, so even if there are those that are...

Yet... If he took Ukraine and felt emboldened he'd push further. No-one thought Hitler would be crazy enough to attack Russia while still fighting in the West, but by that point he'd become so deranged and spurred on by his march through Europe that he did. Absolutely suicidal decision that...

Can't do two reactions cos wanted to give it a :( as well

#He's here, he's there, he's every-fucking-where# Strange thing was I put Jones(Shipley) on the bench as well then realised I had too many subs, so took them out. I was wondering how with our small squad I'd got too many...
