Are you so certain of that that it's worth risking the slaughter of almost everyone in Europe and North America?

We're not talking about a £10 bet on the horses here, mate, we're talking billions of lives being on the line.

So it was said Russia will take Ukraine in three days, then two weeks. It's been a bit from then.

How do you expect Russia to take on NATO, which is far far bigger and more prepared?

We aren't talking about taking on, we're talking about Russia launching thousands of nukes in retaliation to an invasion.

Maybe you don't know, but that's fairly different to the kind of boots on the ground fighting going on in Ukraine.

How did I reply to you? I swear I was replying to a different comment.

Sorry about that. You are absolutely correct.
