I know you hate America as the Muslim you clearly are but Russia has already lost this.

In fact Putin knows he is losing which was why he had to ask Chechnia for help and send in 10000 of their mercenaries who happen to be Muslims

Ukrainian soldiers are waiting for them and have told them they will cut off their heads and play football with it
SportsPoland Refuse To Play Russia In 2022 World Cup Playoff Game by Igbofam(op): 11:27am On Feb 26, 2022
Poland are refusing to play their World Cup qualifier against Russia in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the Polish soccer federation president Cezary Kulesza said on Saturday.

Russia are set to face Poland on March 24 and the winner of that match plays whoever triumphs between Sweden and Czech Republic in a playoff on March 29 in the Path B final to qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

But Kulesza made the announcement on Twitter, citing Russia's assault, and indicated Poland was in talks with other federations to present a unified position to FIFA.

"No more words, time to act!" Kulesza wrote, saying the move was prompted by the "escalation of the aggression."

Poland striker Robert Lewandowski added: "It is the right decision! I can't imagine playing a match with the Russian National Team in a situation when armed aggression in Ukraine continues. Russian footballers and fans are not responsible for this, but we can't pretend that nothing is happening."

Previously, Poland had only said they didn't want to play the qualifying playoff semifinal in Moscow on March 24.

Earlier this week, the Football Associations of Poland, Sweden and Czech Republic released a statement urging FIFA to stage any World Cup playoff against Russia outside of the country following its attack on Ukraine.

In a letter addressed to the FIFA General Secretary Fatma Samoura, the three associations wrote: "Based on the current alarming development in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, including the security situation the Football Associations of Poland (PZPN), Sweden (SvFF) and Czech Republic (FACR) express their firm position that the playoff matches to qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, scheduled for March 24 and 29, 2022, should not be played in the territory of the Russian Federation.

"The signatories to this appeal do not consider travelling to Russia and playing football matches there. The military escalation that we are observing entails serious consequences and considerably lower safety for our national football teams and official delegations.

"Therefore, we expect FIFA and UEFA to react immediately and to present alternative solutions regarding places where these approaching playoff matches could be played."

On Thursday, FIFA said in a statement that the "hope for rapid cessation of hostilities and peace in Ukraine."

"Violence is never a solution and FIFA calls on all parties to restore peace through constructive dialogue. FIFA also continues to express its solidarity to the people affected by this conflict," FIFA said. "Regarding football matters in both Ukraine and Russia, FIFA will continue to monitor the situation and updates in relation to the upcoming FIFA World Cup Qatar 202 qualifiers will be communicated in due course."

People commenting here are kiddies experiencing their first war. American imperialism on life support and will be crushed
My dear you are clearly deluded. Even Russian soldiers are saying Ukraine is winning because many of their tanks and military vehicles are running out of fuel.

Many of their soldiers have been captured or killed too

Russia is alone and fast losing on all sides.

The Netherlands will deliver 200 Stinger anti-aircraft missiles to Ukraine as soon as possible, the Cabinet said on Saturday. The decision comes after additional requests from Ukraine for military goods. For this request, a careful, but shortened, assessment against the arms export criteria took place, according to a letter sent by Foreign Affairs Minister Wopke Hoekstra and Defense Minister Kajsa Ollongren to the Tweede Kamer.

In addition to the 200 Stinger missiles, the Netherlands already dispatched the military equipment it committed to providing "for Ukrainian self-defense against an armed attack by Russia," Hoekstra said. Some of that material was already sent, with more to be dispatched as soon as possible.

The cybersecurity assistance the Netherlands planned to provide earlier this week was delayed due to the Russian invasion. The government is still working with Ukrainian authorities to investigate how Dutch cyberdefense teams can be deployed to assist, Hoekstra said.

On Friday, military equipment was on its way from the Netherlands to Ukraine, Ollongren said on the television program Jinek.

The Cabinet previously announced it would supply 100 sniper rifles with associated ammunition, five weapon location radars, two battlefield surveillance radars, metal detectors and two wire-guided detection robots to detect naval mines. It would also send 3,000 combat helmets and 2,000 fragmentation vests, according to the Ministry of Defense.

The delivery was slightly delayed due to Russia’s complete invasion of Ukraine. "We had a different logistical plan, but the attack by the Russians changed that," Ollongren said.

During a telephone conversation with Prime Minister Mark Rutte, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky asked for even more military aid on Friday. The Ministry of Defense was already looking into the request that day, Ollongren said. “We’re going to do our very best to help,” she said.

The Netherlands is also looking into how humanitarian and financial aid can be given to Zelensky's government. More clarity on this should be provided in the coming days.

Dutch fighter jets sent to patrol NATO airspace in Eastern Europe had already completed their first full day Friday, according to the Ministry of Defense.

Foreign AffairsJoe Biden Signs Order To Provide $600m Military Assistance To Ukraine by Igbofam(op): 7:52am On Feb 26, 2022
Up to $350m would be in military aid, while remaining is for ‘overall assistance’

US president Joe Biden has signed an order to provide up to $600m (£448m) in “immediate military assistance’’ to Ukraine, as Russia wages war against the country.

Ukraine is under Russian invasion for the third day on Saturday, with no signs of talks between Moscow and Kyiv to resolve the conflict.


He instructed secretary of state Antony Blinken to release up to $350m “in defence articles and services of the Department of Defense, and military education and training” under the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961. The remaining 250m would be for “overall assistance”, according to the memo released by the White House.

The order comes after a call between Mr Biden and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky spoke about strengthening sanctions against Russia and providing defence assistance to Kyiv.


Heavy street fighting against Russian troops is underway in Ukraine’s capital city Kyiv as officials urged locals to take immediate shelter. The Russian troops reached Kyiv early on Saturday morning, attacking a military base in the city, as well as attempting to capture an electricity generation station.


Ukrainians have been asked to avoid going near windows or on balconies and be cautious against getting hit by debris or bullets.


The attack came just hours after Ukrainian president Mr Zelensky had predicted Russian troops would mount a major attack on the city overnight.

Good evening house, need your opinion concerning something that just happened to me yesterday.

This is the thing, there is this young lady who happened to be my colleague at work, not the same office though. I can say we had only spoken once.

She walked to my seat posing like she would tell me something in the ear only for her to kiss my cheek with a smile on her face then walked away.

Other people were around but I guess none noticed. It was weird because nobody had boldly flirted on me like she did.

Please i don't want to just jump into escapades with her, rather I want to know the whys behind her action and what I should do.

Thanks you.
She is spreading herpes and covid and just infected you with that kiss. Get tested

The North African campaign of the Second World War took place in North Africa from 10 June 1940 to 13 May 1943. It included campaigns fought in the Libyan and Egyptian deserts (Western Desert Campaign, also known as the Desert War) and in Morocco and Algeria (Operation Torch), as well as Tunisia (Tunisia Campaign).

More than a million African soldiers fought for colonial powers in World War II. ... African colonies were also drawn into a war that was not theirs. From 1939 hundreds of thousands of West African soldiers were sent to the front in Europe.7 May 2015

Yes and no.

If you meant being involved in it then the answer is no.

If you meant having what the Warring factors need to revitalize their economies after the war then the answer is yes

Africa has what they need to help get their economies back on their feet and those are NET TANGIBLE ASSETS such as precious minerals like GOLD, SILVER, RUBIES, DIAMONDS etc

We control the prices because they NEED it and we take their money at a much higher value for those precious minerals.

They would also require food and we become the world's supply for Agricultural produce

He is actually right.

WWIII would mean wealth transfer from the West to Africa as their money would hold no value due to low or lack of resources.

In order for their countries to survive a post war crisis they would need to invest their raw cash into tangible minerals that hold intrinsic
value like Gold, diamonds, rubies, silver etc for monetization later and where can these valuable minerals be found? AFRICA!

We would now be able to control our mineral resources while they beg for it rather than taking it at will
PoliticsRe: Africa Needs Third World War More Than Every Other Continent. Adamu Garba by Igbofam: 4:16pm On Feb 24, 2022
Adamu is actually right on this one. Most people talking against him here are talking out of fear and not from a place of the economic implications.

Russia themselves are fueling this aggression not so much because they want to humble Ukraine but because they want to boost their economy.

Conflict or war has been the last tool utilized when you want to make your economy more powerful just like how USA became powerful through conflict.

Right now the Russian stocks are down 50 percent and their currency has lost 20 percent of it's value. There would be a mad clamour for her stocks and forex now that it is "dipping" and everyone would "hold" till it appreciates and the appreciation would be very fast but guess who would benefit immensely? RUSSIA!

Africa would become a safe haven if there is WWIII and there would be massive resource transfer down to Africa including investment into valuable minerals like African Gold, silver, Diamonds etc as tangible assets which the ripple effect of the war would only increase their intrinsic value. Who would benefit immensely? AFRICA.

There is so much to gain through WWIII for Africa

The Russian ruble crashed by 10% on Thursday morning after President Vladimir Putin announced the start of military action in Ukraine.

“I have made the decision to start a special military operation,” Putin said in a surprise television announcement shortly before 6:00am (0300 GMT) in Moscow.

The Russian leader said he was moving to protect Russians and Russian speakers from what he calls a “genocide” by Ukraine — claims rubbished by Kyiv and the West.



Explosions were heard across Ukrainian cities on Thursday morning, according to Western reporters inside the country and Ukrainian border guards said they were exchanging fire with Russian forces along the country’s northern border with Belarus.

The Russian currency immediately crashed by 10% to a new all-time low, falling through 90 against the U.S. dollar and 100 against the euro.

Both the Moscow and St. Petersburg Exchanges said they were indefinitely suspending share trading on their platforms.

"Trading on all markets has been suspended. A resumption will be announced later," the Moscow Exchange said in a statement on its website.

Washington and Brussels have both punished swift and “devastating” economic sanctions against Russia for the “flagrant aggression.”
