Ukraine

Love the video, but I think she is probably an actress rather than a soldier...

That's Ukraine not Russia! She's just a badazz Ukraine soldier!

I am thinking OTT could lobby Kubota to start a fund to get some tractors and farm equipment for the farmers in Ukraine for after the fighting stops. Assuming it does. The Russians have bombed so much to smithereens getting a wheat harvest this year is going to be dicey.

Nope not an actress, she's a Ukrainian military medic.
She's saying 2 dead, 1 named Ali, and more, there is full "unedited" video out there.
She's also being used in a Russian smear tactic / campaign.

Too much like a music video...but I am on the Ukrainian side regardless...

Kubota has already sent donations for humanitarian aid, so I think they might be receptive to the idea.

From an OTT point of view I am not sure about involvement in collecting donations? Mr K and the mods would know more about that. For sure Kubota Corp would have the European contacts to get equipment where it needs to be.

Anyone have any more ideas on how to make this happen? I can draft letters, but short on background for raising money or locating sources of donatable equipment. Especially of the kind needed in Europe.

As well as donations, locate ALL companies in your country supplying RUSSIA with 'goods and services'. Write to them to STOP this. Stop buying their products. Make the 'list' KNOWN to everyone YOU know.
Ie: if MacDonalds is still selling stuff OR sending stuff in Russia, BOYCOTT them here.

Thats what our country & citizens should do. Enforce all sanctions.

Saw a political satire cartoon...Ronald Mcdonald in front of Putins tanks. Your right more need to stand along side of them.

 

[OrangeKrush]

I saw today they captured two what their calling Russian Trophy tanks.. good for them! I'm not sure how they ended up getting them without damage but now their being used against them!🫡

Do you think "facts' can not be political?

Only if you cannot handle the truth, will one try to politicize facts.

Starting to warm here in Ohio. Started as ice storm this morning.

A lot of military analysts are saying that the once mighty Russian army, is now looking, well not so mighty.

Let's not forget they are still a nuclear power. Hopefully it will not come to that but IF it does I hope they are competent--a misplaced nuke could cause a real problem.

Reported.

By the way, that was a joke. You were suppose to laugh.
Rough crowd…

I'm fine with them taking all of California, lets not limit it to one city.
