    2021-03-31 US Army Raises Europe Threat Level To 'Potential Imminent Crisis' On Ukraine-Russia Fears

    This week the US European Command (EUCOM) has issued a notification of a raised 'threat level' in Europe. The designation has been officially raised to one of "potential imminent crisis" this week. It comes just as The New York Times and others are reporting a serious escalation in fighting in Eastern Ukraine, which has signaled the collapse of yet another cease-fire.

      2021-04-04 'This crisis has the potential to escalate into a pan-European or world war': Russian military analyst claims Moscow's build-up of troops and tanks on the Ukranian border could turn hot within as little as four weeks

      A European or even World War could be triggered in four in Ukraine after Russia dispatched 4,000 to the disputed border with its neighbour, warns an independent Russian military analyst.

      It comes as social media footage footage shows suspected large scale Russian military movements in regions close to rebel-held eastern Ukraine and annexed Crimea.

        Good time for oil and gas embargo and remove it only in exchange for nukes

          Iran increasing enrichment to 60%.

          https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-56743560

          There's only one reason to enrich to 60% and that's so you can get it to 90%.

          Still haven't heard if they want some Cobalt Thorium G though.

              Teacher or Doctor ? Who can contribute to the group?
              Farmer or MMA fighter ? Who would keep you alive the longest?
              Ex Commando or Stripper ? Who would you shack up with?

              You can only pick 3...
              A doctor these days would be almost helpless without drugs to prescribe, whereas a teacher who knew a lot about medicinal herbs and edible wild food could be more of an asset (not that many teachers probably know much about either, but just sayin' )

              Farmer

              (Female) Stripper, because an ex-commando would probably start trying to run the whole show instead of me!

                You'd want a doctor with field medic skills, as they're far more practical at day to day patching up. I'd expect the ex-commando to have some knowledge in that way.

                I think your argument about doctors is equally applicable to farmers, in that many are now machinery led rather than actual hands-on. Unless you get a hill farmer who is happy to birth a radioactive three headed lamb.

                The MMA fighter would be spending their time complaining about not getting enough protein and working out to be of any practical use.

                Strippers can be practical. Use her to keep the commando under control.

                  I'd pick the teacher, the mma fighter and the commando because the mma fighter and the commando would kill each other and the teacher wouldn't be able to revive them. Subsequently, the teacher would die eating wild mushrooms or some such because they only taught art class. Perfect isolation.

                    I think we should be more realistic about who would be available. I think the options should be:
                    1) a hairdresser
                    2) supermarket cashier
                    3) an accountant
                    4) a sales rep.
                    I'm alright Jack
