We're an aggressive, self centred, self destructive obnoxious species - I resigned myself a long time ago to believing we will probably destroy ourselves for no good reason.

Either that or while we're bickering an asteroid takes us out as we look at our shoes more than the skies.

I don't want it to happen but I don't worry about it anymore. At least the planet would eventually heal and maybe have another go.

Sounds like the plot to don't look up. Worth a watch

Nuke 1 Towns / city "do you surrender"
.....
Nuke 2 Towns / cities "do you surrender"
.....
Nuke 3 Towns / cities "do you surrender"
.....

As that worked well in WW2

Edit: In WW2, nobody else had nukes etc but I bet in their heads, that plan still works.

Best tank on the planet according to some posters earlier in this thread ;)

Absolutely ! Using its own engine fumes to put up a cloud of smoke to disguise the approach is genius ;)

Still catching up with the Kerch bridge news this morning. That's massive. If UA did do it, then I think its gone wrong :( Surely the better option would have been to take out the rail part so as to stuff up resupply logistics but leave the road intact so that Russians in Crimea have an escape route. Now they're largely stuck with nowhere to retreat to and more likely to defend territory.

Damn, that the truck in front on the right-hand side seems like it's probably the one carrying the explosives... this was very likely a suicide bombing then?

(Save for some convoluted scenario where the driver was able to hop out and sned the truck down the bridge by itself with one of those RC kits hooked up to it.)
 
I'm wondering how the Ukranians got what appears to be a **** ton of explosives into Crimea or Russia in the first place to then get it onto that bridge?

Plus from what i'm reading there is security at either side that let it through.

I think I'll leave you armchair warriors to it - I'm out.

No I was more interested in getting home for the clangers or Grange hill.

Same when I was serving in Germany in the late 80s and early 90s not once was I worried or concerned. It is utterly unequivocally out of your control. Unless of course your the chief of staff, the PM or the grunt in charge of loading the weapon which I very much doubt.

Plenty more things can kill you :)

Could be one of their own trucks that has been sabotaged. Or a carelees driver with one of those dangerous cigerettes they have.
