The vast majority of the Russian Military hardware is out of date and no match for NATO. Putin knows this and as soon as we get involved without provocation to NATO that is all it's going to need for him to reach for that big red button.
Then it won't just be Ukrainians dying, it will...
You can tell things aren't going as planned for Russia if these guys are that close to the front line to get themselves killed. These Generals, etc are normally commanding the shots from at least 50-100 miles behind the front line.
There was always one big difference in the way NATO & the Warsaw Pact operated.
With NATO, if any member was attacked, the rest would mobilise to help protect them.
With Warsaw Pact, the USSR used the rest of the Countries like Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria etc, like a buffer to protect the Soviet...
Under normal Communism, I would agree, but Putin seems to be running the Country more and more like Fascism under the disguise of Communism. The sooner the general public realise this, the sooner they will revolt.
Not quite, Hitler made his move for the oil fields in the Caucasus before he made sure he had secured Stalingrad and the northern end of that front. It spread his lines too thin and the Soviet army found the correct weaknesses to push through and encircle the forces attacking Stalingrad and the...
Exactly this, the man is still bitter about the fall of the USSR and wanted to be the man who resurrected the Soviet Union. It's become a personal bug in the back of his mind, making him more and more unhinged with reality.
IMO, the last two matches have been almost identical. Two teams fragmenting the match and getting under our skins by bullying us.
Need to rise above it to get anything out of games like this.
Unfortunately, the 2nd World War showed us it doesn't matter how you treat someone, if they are hell bent on power, domination and invading/starting a war, they will.
We tried the softly, softly approach with Hitler & Germany, say "Oh, we'll let you keep Austria but don't do anything else."...
I think the ref should start to walk off the pitch if players start surrounding them in protest like that. No ref, no game. Simples. Let him do his job otherwise you forfeit the match
Whilst you may be correct on this if Elanga had made a clean tackle and continued at pace, his body position might suggest otherwise.
The first picture is from when he nicks the ball from Dunk and the second is from where Dunk makes contact with his leg and changed the arm position from a block...
But not fully until October 2022. Anyone still wanting to travel their before then will still have to self isolate upon arrival.
Step 2 — From 11:59pm 13 March 2022
The following fully vaccinated people can enter New Zealand from anywhere in the world and self-isolate upon arrival:

The trouble I think there is with Arden & NZ, is that they are still looking at keeping Covid out. With Omicron, that is going to be nigh on impossible unless they plan to live like a hermit nation and the public realise that, which is why they are turning against her.
