Or they just back Putin. Trump was on the radio apparently convinced it was America invading.First.Aspect said:
Yes I wonder if the silver lining to all of this will be that the likes of Trump will instantaneously become yesterday's news.

Watched on the military flight trackers earlier as four Ukrainian transport aircraft came low out of the West right behind each other. They immediately became visible as they passed into Polish airspace and gunned it to an airbase. According to my fellow geeks they were escorted by NATO aircraft to their landing.

You laugh, but yes actually the cultural stuff matters, be it eurovision or CL finals.
Remember the only reason we're not two weeks into this is becasue of some Norwegians and Swiss sliding around on fake snow in China...We're in danger of confusing passion with incompetence
