It’s almost as if the threat of long range missiles is scaring the shit out of Russia.

I hope NATO reply that if Russia turns Kiev into a melted spot, Moscow will follow. But to be fair it’s all ego saber rattling.

    We really should sanction exporting alcohol to ruskys, if only to save ourselves from Dima’s delirium maddness.

      I doubt that would help, unless you told Ukrainians to switch from bombing refineries to bombing distilleries at the same time.

        Genuinely, though, I wonder how centralized their vodka industry is. A few bombs could cause a fairly major crisis if as many people are alcoholic as rumoured.

          It’s probably better for Ukraine if alcoholism is still a societal problem in Russia. You don’t want to have to fight sober frontline soldiers.

            True, though it might be a temporary advantage to create an acute crisis at a key time. Something to keep in the back pocket maybe. NCD stuff.
