@very-rusty saidI was never a big fan of the "leadership" meme. Seems anti-American.

@ponderable saidFrom the few handful of pactual predictions, this one came true...
Hardly a prediction: there will be a lot of not on topic "conversation" going on in dedicated threads.
@moonbus saidDo you think Putin is crazy enough to start a Nuke war? He must be pretty upset he was going in Ukraine looking to win in a week and here we are a bit over 2 months later. The Ukraine people have a lot of courage.
Putin will fail to replace the regime in Ukraine by a puppet regime of his own choosing and will require some sort of pseudo-victory to save face at home; this will play out at horrific cost to Ukraine’s civilians and civilian infrastructure.

@earl-of-trumps saidI was only answering moonbus prediction. Was not trying to change the Subject of the thread.
I would say at this point, this thread is now all about Ukraine, eh?
I think that Putin will settle for a big chunk of Ukraine and Moldovia. But it will cost him into
having Russia heavily ostracized and will cost his country plenty. And the war will restart eventually

@earl-of-trumps saidWhy would anybody start a third world war knowing the consequences? Are there such people?

@ponderable saidAnd here I am hoping Sweden and Finland will join Nato...
So we have a few more predictions.
I put you down with "NATO initiates the third world war", probably we can't track this one if it happens, but any way π
