[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of all the outrageous things going on right now, this doesn't really move me. We knew the invasion was coming. We know China is a bad actor. It's tradition to stop wars during the Olympics.

I just don't see how this qualifies as news.[/quote]

This is not really true.

Many security experts and Ukrainians themselves thought it was just posturing. Putin himself claimed it was just military exercises. Biden administration wanted to be prudent but they really did not know for sure whether Russia would invade - and certainly no one thought they would invade all the key cities in the entire country. The only authorities who knew for sure were China.

This is news and this is off the carts inexcusable.

Both Russia and China deserve sanctions and to be kicked off the UN Security Council. Russia and Belarus are banned from the ParaOlympics but Russia should be banned from all Olympics. This is the second time they have invaded another sovereign country in an unprovoked act of war during the Olympics (this time they built up all the troops along the border during the Olympics and invaded straight afterwards). They also condone doping teenagers and other athletes.

However, this thread now belongs in politics so sorry to anyone just wanting to read about entertainment and pop culture.
