And what if it's not a bluff?
Hitler was crazy, but he and his gang were not bluffing.

Time for those "Assassins" to do their work.

Flights out of Russia are fully booked...people fearing conscription.

https://news.yahoo.com/russian-panic-spirals-arson-attacks-175713499.html

"All the way with LBJ" my Prime Minister spoke as he invoked conscription.

"Nuke em" I said...as I registered for the draft, very reluctantly.
I was much luckier than all those young Americans who were drafted then slaughtered in Vietnam for nothing, yes nothing..........my draft was a ballot...my number wasn't drawn out of the barrel.

No Americans must die defending Australia when China invades [only a matter of time and withing 5 years according to *my* experts].
Washington and Britain [France seems to hate Australia now, likely can't rely on them anymore, pity all those Aussie troops were slaughtered saving France] should see to it that Australia is nuke armed at sea, in the air, and on land very soon...so Australia can fire nukes at China when the invasion starts.

"Russia storms out of the UN [what's Russia even still doing in the UN?]...Putin passes secret law for 1m troops."

Yes, Putin's gonna throw 1million more troops at Ukraine.
These Russian troops will simply overrun the 'wagon train' by sheer numbers, Ukrainian military won't be able to slaughter them fast enough.
Maybe get Ukraine some "Aussie Storm of Metal Terror" 1million rounds a minute electronic machine guns. US Navy has them.
These machine guns could mow down the invading Russian hordes.
NATO missiles are needed, many and in a hurry, a continual supply, gotta get those Russian[and Chinese?] planes out of the sky.

No time for more prisoners, it's now "kill kill kill" as many invading Russians as possible, as quickly as possible.

Now that President Biden has stated that America will defend Taiwan if China attacks, People in Russia should be told that the first time Putin fires a nuke that many nukes will rain down on Russia and they will be turned into ash.

Shown on my tv last night:

Russian families in heartbreaking scenes as they say goodbye to their husbands, brothers, sons and the little children their dads
"Come back soon" said one small child to its father.
Not much chance of that...the father will be coming over the border to kill Ukrainians...and will likely get slaughtered, their blood on the hands of Putin...and all in Russia who support him.

That was at the beginning.
If Ukraine had surrendered then, all the Ukrainians who have been murdered in their homes by Russia, all those apartment buildings full of people blown up, would likely be alive and intact today, families still united.
The West was not there to help them at the beginning.
Putin's 1m troops will likey overrun what's left of Ukraine...and the resistance will have all been for nothing.
Poland, France, Holland etc surrendered to Hitler in WW2, not enough military might to fight with.

Bambu considers being alive in a rape cage intact.  This is because a Russian rape cage would be a marked step up from the present circumstance of Bambu.

bambu's present circumstances are just fine...well except that he still has too much stuff in his garage [stacked neatly in storage tubs, mostly] from when he moved house several years ago.
The car still fits in, and the auto door works well.
2 fridges, clothes dryer, dog cages [folding], bags, suitcases, clothes, gardening tools, plus all the other stuff needed to run a household.
He thought his garage was a mess, until he drove past some of the others in the village, they're the same, some worse. Some basically have only the car in them, usually single women, seems to be.

Russian rape cage, or death...not much of a choice...but it's what happens when you can't defend yourself, and the world just stands on the sidelines doing nothing much, saying "oh isn't that terrible".
Exactly why Australia was totally foolish to go around signing nuclear non-proliferation treaties instead of arming itself with nukes, ...and chemical weapons, and biological weapons [they'll be the next things in general war use, you watch].
Guns beat spears and arrows...the way it has always been. Nukes beat conventional weapons.

Last night on my tv news it was stated that the weapons needed by Ukraine ...now...are not being supplied...now...by the West.
If Russia is not stopped, time to starve Russia and cut off all its trade...then who knows who'll be next.
If the world is really as outraged as it says it is, it will supply Ukraine with every type of missile and other weapons it needs...now.

Someone should ask Australia's new Leftist Foreign Minister Penny Wong, who's over at the UN talking up nuclear non-proliferation, and in the next breath saying "WE cannot be passive when big powers flout the rules", just who she thinks 'We' are and what she thinks her 'non-nuke proliferation', 'unarmed' country can actually do to be 'non-passive'.
Maybe Washington could ask her...Then explain it all to her.

You should send your guns to Ukraine, Bambi.

Also spread the word to your friends that time in a Ukrainian prison is in every way preferable to time in a Russian foxhole or trench.
