Mate, I have to say, I am really appreciating your posts.
Yourself, among many other posters, have made this thread a one stop shop of concentrated information, that filters out the bullshit and insanity found in news feeds.
This is a horrible situation, and I am holding out in hope for a best case scenario in which Russia withdraws its forces and that the Ukrainians get to keep their country. Not only do you seem well informed, but your posts offer a glimmer of that hope. I really appreciate that.
I am probably being a bit too idealistic here, but I am hoping that Ukraine remains to be a place that can be found on the map by everyone. ( Except Americans. They will probably be looking for it somewhere in Africa) Preferably with all its borders intact.
Up the Ukraine, and f*** that poison dwarf Putin.
