I seems that it has been taken down due to a DDoss attack.


Yes I could, but a little slow to open. Most probably overloaded.

...three civilian ships attacked with missiles and hit by Russian military forces, crew members were also injured; in just two days.

"EEZ" its meaning, the security it offers to Maritime Trade, will have to be more clearly defined, given these events.

...in any case mariners are being put in harms way, for this trade to continue, and there are many of these ships representing the world's marine traffic in the Black Sea.

Everything points to Ukraine's likelihood of becoming a NATO member, probably within your or my lifetime, as being akin to my being asked to join the Masons. It's just like "the Ukraine is trying to obtain nuclear weapons" - an excuse.

Yes. People are dying on the streets of the towns and cities of Ukraine right now. There's shelling, rocket attacks, air and armour involved. Yet, on this forum we hear the gleeful likes of "YAY, YAY, GO RUSSIA, GO!" and the idea of such things as the possible use of thermobaric weapons (Daisy Cutters) they've brought into the country greeted with eager anticipation. Basically they're on a par with WMD. US use of them would be talked about as an atrocity by the same people. Then, with over 100,000 Russian troops flooding into Ukraine, in another, adjacent post "The criminal US is rubbing its filthy hands.................... It's not the Russian's fault you see. :(


I actually enjoy hearing extremes, but since we are in a free speech type of forum why do you pretend to be Mother Theresa? Yourself was a fighter jet pilot right? Did you ever disobey orders?

The day the Yanks accept Russian missiles based in Cuba is the day Ukraine will join Nato.

Now that the west has decided to sell more weapons to Ukraine with their policy of urban warfare in the cities, the Ukranian cities will look like Grozny by the time this war ends.

You never know Erdogan is playing host to the talks. Anything can happen.

They are not selling them. They send them free of charge for obvious reasons. To cause as much human lives loss to the Russians without even caring that there will be an even more lives loss to the Ukranians, let aside the eventual total destruction of all infrastructure.
