Probably another ill thought out pledge, as Karl becomes six o'clock shadow Kathy, a ruck of Ukrainian women suddenly sport immense boobs and acquire dazzling smiles the envy of Hollywood, on the back of an allegedly at breaking point NHS :) Meanwhile a lot of us have forgotten what a physical doctor actually looks like as we do our best to describe our ailments to a random arbitrator over the phone.

We are banning protests, our leader openly lies, we allow bribes for government influence and we provide seats in the Lords for our billionaire friends. Plus turn a blind eye to corruption, cronyism and bribery. I don’t think we are as far away as you think!

Plus massive state censorship which basically criminalises everyone who has ever visited a porn website, prolonged detention without charge, and a massive state surveillance apparatus.

…so it wouldn't surprise me if we see the news about a missile that was "not nuclear" hitting somewhere in the US desert…

no chance anything will get fired at US mainland as that’d need an icbm launch.
that would immediately provoke a full nuclear response regardless of where it would have landed since by the time you figure out if it’s landing somewhere harmless you’re too late to respond properly.

I said earlier in this thread that parts of Ukraine are beginning to look like a Stalker game. Which is ironic considering that GSC Game World are a Ukrainian Video game developer. Needless to say, they don't now need Pripyat to draw inspiration, they only need to look out the window.

You need to take some dried frog pills and relax.
 
The one thing that can be said about Mr. Putin that is unlikely to be debunked is he definitely has weapons of mass destruction but Mr. Blair is not thrutching to start a full on battle with him.

But what happens if it's just WOPR playing a game Global Thermonuclear War?

I thought someone had extremely recently "accidentally" flown a drone missile across two NATO countries and the realization of this only occurred when the device caused a large crater in the middle of Zagreb? Cue "it won't happen again, heads will roll, we are upping our ante, a full inquiry will be underway when staff return from holiday ( ;) )", blah blah.
