    I've always found these "rules of war" to be kind of odd. I mean, "sure, invade a country illegally, but do so according to these sets of rules".

    Same here.  And now he's used a prohibited bomb, but none of the countless countries that are looking to take Russia down can touch him for fear of breaking rules.  It makes no sense to me (someone without a military background).

    ‘Yes, He Would’: Fiona Hill on Putin and Nukes

    Putin is trying to take down the entire world order, the veteran Russia watcher said in an interview. But there are ways even ordinary Americans can fight back.

    The rules make sense for nukes, because we’re just trying to not destroy the entire world. But I agree for everything else, like the type of bullet. I’m sure a soldier getting killed really cares what time of bullet was used.

    Did anywhere here Dominick Haseks comments that Russian players contracts with nhl teams should be suspended?  A poster mentioned it earlier.  I shot the idea down myself.  What if said player has ties to Putin?  Would you support a move like that?  
    he was spot on with is critique of ovechkin. he is a putin supporter.

    I don't know. I think there's merit to it being something that could happen. But, yeah, there definitely would be a rigid order & process to it. I just don't know how many times you play chicken in times like these waiting for the wrong dipshit with dementia to blink.

    I hope you're right, but I have my doubts.  For me, concern and fear goes back to the 1950's when we were being taught to do this:
    During 1950s Cold War US Children Taught to Duck and Cover Vintage Everyday

    And now it's 2022 and the threat still looms.
    The only thing I can conclude is that humanity is bat shit crazy.  How else do we explain this behavior?

    Yes, but didn't Hasek's comment talk about Russian players in general, not just Ovie who has been tied to the Kremlin for years?  I couldn't even begin to support suspending all Russian born players.  That's honestly the worst idea in the world.  Didn't we learn anything from WW2?

    This is bad. How can they stop this? 

    Russian tank column outside Kyiv 'is 40 miles long' – report

    Satellite images taken on Monday show a Russian military convoy north of Kyiv that stretches for about 40 miles (64 km) in an area north-west of Kyiv. It is substantially longer than the 17 miles (27 km) reported earlier in the day, according to the US company Maxar, Reuters reports.
