I understand this strategy. If they need attention, all they have to do is play with a mouse toy. It's too adorable to look away from and resist.

It's sometimes the only way to get everyone's attention away from all of the younger kittens.

We understand it. We just do not agree with it.
Putin is borrowing a play from the CCP, and couching some of his Ukraine narrative along the same lines as Taiwan making the claim that Ukraine has no right to exist independently of Moscow.

Daily Question #83

Which year would you live in forever?

2018, one the best years in the 2010's

Daily Question #84

When do you think Humanity will officially discover other forms of intelligent life?

In the mid to late 21st century.

Daily Question #85

What will happen once Russia invades Ukraine?

NATO and the United States retaliate with the soldiers stationed in Ukraine. Ukrainian guerrilla forces will hide amongst the shadows and attack Russian forces with stealth and secrecy. China will take the golden opportunity and invade Taiwan.

1. 2015 or the 2020
2. Yes.
3. Everything but not the Third World War.

However, I apologize for everything I have said about you.

Anchillas

Daily Question #86

If you could implement any feature into NationStates, what would it be?

A national language option in settings, similar to national animal or religion.

Daily Question #87

Do you think government officials should be allowed to trade stocks?

Not at all. They are meant to serve their country, not make some cheap money that they manipulated the market to get.

Daily Question #88

What is your stance on Ethiopia building the Great Ethiopian Renaissance Dam, which will greatly help Ethiopia but cause water shortages for Egypt and Sudan in the process?

I think Ethiopia should demolish the dam. Sure, they need the electricity, but I am not sure if cutting water supply off from all the other African countries north of them is the way to go.

#86: National language would be good. Really, the more customization, the better. I also want to see a chart comparing all of the industries like retail, IT, book publishing, manufacturing, etc. I think this would be more useful for the "economy" tab than the percentage of gov vs private vs state enterprise, although that is also fun with the black market.

#87 and #88: Agreed with Anchillas.

For other reasons. That port is not militarily valuable. I mean, have you been to the Sevastopol Bay? I have. With that one, who needs an artificial unprotected port on straight coastline?

A forward thinking commander does not consider resources from one perspective.
When deciding what to preserve, and what to erase from the map, the commercial, and industrial utility of a piece of real estate is considered along with any tactical value it may have.

To our friends, comrades, and allies in Ukraine…they might win now, but never give up. In time, if you keep your faith in your leaders, countrymen, and any other allies you can muster, you will win. Keep your faith, never surrender, fight to the death.

Whoop their ass. For Freedom.

May God be with you all, we have your backs.

The strength of arms will never match the faith people have in their country.

That faith wins wars. The amount of wars that were won based on nothing but hope are too many to put on this post.

But look at the American Revolution, that is a prime example. If Ukraine maintains hope, their faith will compel them to, at the very least, make Russia hurt. Never underestimate hope.

It's not a superpower. Russia has never defeated any Western country except as part of a coalition with other Western countries. If you want to see how the Russians fared one-on-one against even one of the weakest European countries without much outside help to either side, just look how badly the Red Army sucked in the Winter War. And pay special attention to the battle of Suomussalmi which by comparison makes the Teutoburg Forest look like a victory for the Romans. And economically Russia is little more than exporter of natural resources. For the first quarter century of my life I enjoyed almost exclusively Soviet made consumer goods. E.g. when you bought a TV, you just assumed from the start that it would take a couple of repairman visits under warranty until it actually started working. Some superpower...

Kalatchevia wrote:Yeah but supplying 30-40% of Europe's gas is non-trivial. With that they effectively control Europe, because switching entire to American gas is a fiscal death sentence

That's worse for them than for the Europeans. Europe will eventually restructure its energy sources. But Russia won't find any new buyers for the gas.

The French are building more nuclear reactors. The EU is designating nuclear power "sustainable" or whatever. It will be a rude awakening for the Europeans, but everybody will have to wake up to the physical reality that solar and wind just can't cut it.
