Russian Commercial Bank in Cyprus (RCB) forced to close down.
I think the same applies to it's branches all over Europe.

Yesterday, all the West’s baboons congregated to show that they are UNANIMOUS in their... STUPIDITY! :)

Kiss your loves ones goodbye just in case, because I'm pretty certain now we're heading for uncharted territory...


I call this beautiful concerto…

I actually expected him to explain this issue with the ruble from his own POV.
He could have something useful to tell us.

You give him too much credit… :?

Anyway, I no longer believe we’re gonna get that far to see the death of the dollar.

If 40 men in all their wisdom, have concluded that the best solution to an easily rectifiable problem is to ESCALATE, then I’m afraid we’re not worthy of life.

With a perfect record of having never failed to call the West’s bluffs, the West in all their wisdom have decided to place ALL their money now on one FINAL… bluff!

I’d wish you luck fellas, but the laws of probability do not permit me superstition. :)

it looks like the price of fuel has destabilized and has now dropped by nearly 20% from its peak.

It also looks like Pootin has really fucked up well and truly and compromised the Russian people and put Russia in a very difficult situation.

NATO for many years bent over backwards and even encouraged Russia to join NATO itself in order to promote harmony, better relations as well as peace and stability.

But now, NATO has been invigorated, and it has re-calibrated its compass with an actual menace and enemy. And business has never looked better. Yiou would have to be stupid now not to want to join NATO.

At the risk of being labelled a "Nostradamus", the freak horrow show against humanity and all decency we see on our TV screens from the safety of our own lounge rooms, is an insight into what awaits Cyprus. The only unknown factor, is when. And I hope I am wrong.

But Cyprus will face exactly what Ukraine is facing today.

The Ukrainian people are a fine example of selfless commitment to country, that is hard to find in this day and age of this millenial world. The last time we saw such sacrifice and valour was in WW2. And it appears that with little help from the West, the Ukrainian Military, and the people of Ukraine are defeating the Russians. In some places, the Russians are now conceding territory or digging in.

The world owes Ukraine.

I said it before, that Russia has only started a war that is impossible for them to win.

Now the question is, what will a desperate Pootin do? Will he use Chemical weapons? Or will he nuke New York. Now, a reasonable leader will never consider such a thing. But we are not dealing with a reasinablke leader here, but a madman, only comparable to the worst of the worst humanity has ever seen.

I won’t go through all the disjointed childish nonsense you’ve posted, because the last part is what sums you up the best:

If that’s what you seriously think of Putin, then why do you see fit in calling his bluff?

Does this not say anything about YOUR ENORMOUS STUPIDITY? :lol:

Pray tell us, why you support poking someone who is so insane and dangerous as you describe… :)

I live in a city which is very likely to be on Pootin's nuclear target list if this escalates to our worst nightmares.

Even though I understand with the Europeans and Americans are doing in order to not risk a holocaust, I think its time for NATO to seriously look at the 'no fly zone' option and take control of Ukrainian airspace so that the Russians can't operate so freely.

Yes it's an extremely dangerous move. Things will escalate.

But by not doing it, we only embolden Pootin to invade other countries - possible Moldova, Lithuania, Latvia etc. We also embolden China in the South China Sea. We embolden Turkey in Cyprus.

This is the catalyst to open many wars in the future.

So the no fly zone option needs to be assessed now. I'm sorry to say. And yes I appreciate the risks as well.

Look I know it's very hard for you, but Russia has lost. They are no superpower at all, that is a match for the US in any conventional warfare.

If you think they can be taken seriously after this disaster, then you are delusional.

They are just another Turkey with nukes.

BTW. Does “YOUR ENORMOUS STUPIDITY” count as a “personal attack”? :roll:
