James, I like you. You seem like a very interesting character with probably some amazing life experiences. We might have a lot in common. I do remember your original story on the subject. At the time I didn't like it much, too much like fiendish thinking for me. But hey, I thought, it was highly unlikely; an innocent thought exercise.

It doesn't look so much like that now. Did you have money on it by any chance? I guess you should have, if you didn't :)

Is it me, or is everything that we might see as "Escalation" not been something that we have done, since the initial incursion by Russia into Ukraine?

Pipelines being blown up outside Ukraine (No-one seriously believes that was Russia), and now a bridge, one that was a kind of Russian pride, outside Ukraine, blown up. They are under attack from all sides. That much must be pretty clear to them now. So how long will it be until they go into full Russian anti-Nazi mode, like they did before, losing 25 million people, but still winning. Do we even know what we are fucking with here? Sorry for the profanity.
