Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital
candide replied to Chris.B's topic in The War in Ukraine
It seems the current anti-missile systems are not able to stop the new Russian missiles. However, even if UK would be destroyed, there would still be four ballistic submarines, each carrying 8 missiles with 5 nuclear heads. Russia knows that even one single submarine is enough to anihilate the main Russian cities. -
As usual, it will be the poor people who will suffer. The "hated" liberal educated classes are living in liberal States, or will be able to pay to travel to other countries and avoid legal traps. On top of it, poor people living in GOP States are governed by a party which is keen on reducing social spending, cut family planning spending, favours subsidising married couples rather than single mothers, etc...

Lame false equivalence. Even if Ukraine would join NATO, it doesn't mean that there would be offensive ballistic missiles in Ukraine, as it is not the U.S. or NATO policy to put offensive ballistic missiles close to Russia. There are no offensive ballistic missiles or nuclear bombs in Eastern Europe. The only case of missile station in Romania is hosting interceptors (anti-missile system). As concerns nuclear bombs, the closest ones to Russia are in Turkey, the others are in Germany, France, etc... So Ukraine joining NATO would mean zilch in term of nuclear threat to Russia. If you new what you are talking about, you would know that the biggest threat is nuclear submarines, and you can be sure that they are now quietly waiting in the Baltic Sea, the Barents Sea, or the Mediterranean Sea.

I think the U.S. system produces the opposite of what a S.C. should be: - it should be composed of politically neutral judges, yet they have been chosen for their known political stance, -it should be composed of old wise guys, yet judges have nominated at a rather young age, in order to stack the S.C. for as long as possible.

More to it! ???? "Trump is hate-watching every Jan. 6 hearing and almost screams at the TV because he feels nobody is defending him, report says" https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-avidly-watching-jan-6-hearings-almost-screaming-tv-report-2022-6?r=US&IR=T -
Two priceless quotes from the OP: "It said Britain has experienced a decline of 8% in trade openness - trade as a portion of economic output - since 2019, losing market share across three of its largest non-EU goods import markets in 2021, the US, Canada and Japan." "The report added the North East is expected to be hit hardest by Brexit as its firms are particularly reliant on exports to the EU". Basically, North-East voters shot themselves in the foot

In order to show they are neutral, they also authorised women to be topless. I wonder (not really) which way Muslim men will be looking! ????
