r8w8,


Personally, I believe I will always feel extremely grateful for the way Russia recently "stepped in" in the manner described (in the Russian language with English translations) in parts of the video at the following address:

Had they not "stepped in" this way, which involved putting many of their military people in harms way, I'm more than half-convinced we might all have been well and truly frazzled (from nuclear radiation) by now.

What makes me feel all the more grateful for this particular piece of Russian action, is that the rest of world -- on the face of things at least -- all appear (to me) have stood back and done nothing whatsoever of any value to prevent a catastrophic escalation of the present warmongering now taking place in and around the Middle East, and more recently in and around North Western Australia as well.

The ongoing worry is though that the threat of a soon-to-be thermonuclear WW3 has by no means past (I believe), for reasons such as those very recently put forward at:

One final point: action of the kind Russia took in this particular situation, seems to me to really show up the major inadequacies of having to rely solely on such things as street protests, huffing and puffing on talk-shows, Internet articles/comments, and so on: in connection with such extremely dangerous and tricky situations.

"To the Celts (or Keltoi as the ancient Greeks called them), the Esker Riada was know as "An Slà Mà ³r": which means "The Great Highway". According to the Greeks, and as alluded to in Homer's epic poem the Odyssey (in Book XI, line 16), written around the 8th century BC, the Celts seem to owe their origins to the much earlier Cimmerian and Scythian peoples: who, in the very dawn of human history, are believed to have inhabited parts of the area now known as the Ukraine (in Russia)."
