Pinned down Ukrainian soldiers in a street fight with Russian soldiers, one of the guys could be a civilian as he isn't in fatigues.

So Joe Six Pack Uki has no say in the matter because the sure seem to want to have a say in defending their country. Even moneyed athletes and middle age coaches are flying back to at least be reservists(even if it's for show). I would think that the people have the right to determine their...

If the average citizen considered themselves puppets for the US and Western Europe they wouldn't be signing up in droves for an obvious over matched armed resistance. Look how quickly the Afghan army folded from a rag tag partisan army in the Taliban. The people want this government, also...

Willis has gone from a mid to a 1st round lock and he hasn't played against anything close to Power 5 conference players, they site Josh Allen comparisons but Allen is a traditional size, Willis is short and much lighter than Allen. Willis will have to roll out and play similar to Wilson...

If these wars involved a nuclear power the world would have cared more. I recall the US gave arms to Saddam to fight Iran, even though he started the war to seize oil fields in a border region. Europe has 4 of the 7 strongest economies in it and a nuclear power that is unstable in this region...

I was going to say "WOW" he's moving up the board...

I could see a situation where Vitali has his bunker surrounded and he is summarily executed as he surrenders. This has happened many times in history with dictators killing opposition leaders or media people, shoot a hopped up soldier could kill him too. PS I don't think he will flee his...

He is but not for the reasons you think, all dictators are macho as being tolerant of other points of views is viewed as weak in their minds. It's a case of my enemies enemy is my friend rather him being a saviour for conservative values. Watch how Putin turned a spy chief into a stumbling...

Think about if you are a border guard and you own people are dying and getting maimed who are you going to help first, it may not be fair but it's perfectly understandable. If the shoe was on the other foot the African border guards would be demanding bribes, robbing refugees, raping and...

The opening press conference happened yesterday and the PED fueled grizzly bear was in hibernation in Portugal. No matter Fury was his usual larger than life self...

There is a reason why the mob used to run the numbers game and it's not because they lost money promoting it... You would be better off collecting for one and paying off the phantom win then betting on it, although in theory when the purse gets above price times around 150 million it's a...

Partisans/foreign volunteers are historically treated harshly by enemy combatants as they are treated similar to captured terrorists and routinely have their prisoner rights violated. The Mulatto would be an obvious foreigner if captured and could be subjected to this. If a guy like this...

I stand corrected he died in Nigeria during the civil war. I don't know why I got those signals crossed. Getting back on point Usyk has joined the civil defense force too. From what I get of the different types of armed units, the civil defense force are more like the National Guard and the...

Mate you have no dog in this fight...

She was well out of the race at the halfway point and was clawing to get back the runners until she ran out meters to run so she never fully executed the race properly. Watch the start she was among the last out of the blocks and in the drive phase was close to last, the race was lost there...

He has balls the size of elephants, but if you fight in the ring at the world level it is to be expected. I just hope Loma or either K brother is not killed in action or in the case of Vitali bombed or even assassinated. I recall former middleweight champion Dick Tiger dying in a Nigerian...

This situartion also reminds me of this movie in a black humor sense...

I don't think things would ever get to that as his government won't be threatened by Ukrainian forces as the furthest they would venture would be the edges of the their old borders. If he was truly a mad men and was willing to possibly destroy Eastern Europe you would think a coup would happen...

The nuclear option has been publicly stated by the Kremlin. This is why the help for the Ukrainians has been muted. Surprisingly the Ukrainian army plus a cobbled militia has repelled Russian intrusions in Kharkiv the equivalent of Chicago for that country. Dirty hand to hand street fighting...

Take it with a grain of salt but Marcio Rubio stated that Putin's mental state is off and he got this information from spies, how he would get this intelligence is beyond me as he is just a lowly senator that isn't part of the cabinet.(Note I looked up he is on the house intelligence committee...

No this goes back to operation Barbarosa where Ukrainian nationalists celebrated the Nazi invasion so he is painting this new government in that light. Ukrainian nationalists fought alongside the Wehrmacht to liberate their country which was under 400+ years of Russian/Soviet occupation(similar...

Yes I forgot about the Wehrmacht general who respected the cultural losses that could occur if the historic buildings in the city center would get destroyed needlessly as his position was hopeless. Yes we need a hero like that to save Kiev, maybe Vitali will be that type of courageous leader...

I hope a peaceful surrender of the capital will happen similar to Paris in 40', historical buildings could be destroyed and how many people will needlessly die. This is sheer madness.

If Putin sends his army into Ukraine proper expect gold to break through the 2k US barrier and plant a flag above this level for as long as the fighting ensues, silver like a kid brother will tag along and probably break the recent high of 28 US too. Precious metal speculation tends to occur...
