You have to understand the difference between the "news" of the media you read and the News that free press can and does publish. About poking the bear... well the UK did not kill a dissident in Moscow with Polonium. That is poking.
On regards to UK becoming "small Britain", well, your comment is right... just 107 years old because it started with WW I.

This touches several of the weak points of RF and can make the war take a different perspective.
You constantly talk in this thread about the future victories of Ukraine and how clumsily the Russian army is fighting. Apparently, you are very confident in the victory of Ukraine, then I offer you a bet with the following conditions:
- if Ukrainian troops manage to recapture any of these cities before January 1, 2023: Kherson, Mariupol, Melitopol, then I will leave this forum forever.
- if the Ukrainian troops until January 1, 2023 are NOT able to recapture any of these cities: Kherson, Mariupol, Melitopol, then you will leave this forum forever.
If you're not ready for this bet, then maybe you will stop your wishful talking?
Written records are a bitch uh? You are lucky I am not fifteen and I do not bet on deaths (nor for that matter on things that do not depend on my own acts).
So... I am allowed by you highness to continue "my wishful thinking"? Or maybe it was something else...like not wanting to talk about the offensive and how, where and when it may have happened? Well, we won't know.
Now, go back to trolling. As Napoleon said, never interrupt the opponent when he is making a mistake.
