Had an idea!

Well now I'm starting to question whether or not NATO needs to get involved.
At the very least its all hands on deck to help get weapons into Ukraine.
All NATO countries should be allowing military members to take 'leave' and go join the efforts.

I thought they finally figured out they were on a feed when they turned the spotlights straight into the camera..

Putin: "we are here to liberate our Ukrainian brethren from the tyrannical nazification"
"oh, and also to blow up a nuclear power plant"

This is worse than anyone could have imagined when Russia started its invasion a week ago, utterly unthinkable when Putin put his troops on the border.

It's one of the adjacent buildings that's on fire.
But if they keep it up and don't let in firefighters to deter said fire, who knows what happens.

Going Nuclear without actually using Nukes?
Mind blowing stuff.
More like "well if I can't have it, now nobody can have it" when it comes to the country. Just turning into a radioactive wasteland.

Apparently 2 of the reactors were safely shut down.

This is where it is annoying that the west hasn't put massive amounts of air assets into Europe as an implied instant threat, I would much rather be calling up the Kremlin and having the 'hey why are you forcing us to get involved with our in place air assets that will utterly destroy you in about 10 minutes? get your troops away from that Power station' rather than 'well maybe in a couple of weeks if you carry on being nasty'

It’s not like other countries are standing around doing nothing but I really wonder how these sort of situations can be prevented in the future? Every country should be banding together and putting the most extreme pressure on Russia right now. Putin should be held for war crimes for attacking a sovereign nation. Crazy that we can’t learn from WW2.

I think ‘we’ did.
The Russians didn’t.

It's this kind of stuff that people need to keep in mind when they start with what-aboutisms with America and NATO. There is a clear difference with the intentions of each side.

Dan Carlin dropped his first Common Sense podcast in seven months. As usual, worth a listen.
