   ### - we're getting reports coming in here now of some kinda 'mass   
   evacuation' into russia of the elderly + women & children from some of   
   those southern regions, apparently due to the heavy shelling of cities   
   there by the ukrainian army nearly all along the border...   
      
   whether this is true or not we'll undoubtedly find out because any   
   resulting damage from such a sustained attack would be hard to   
   cover-up/fake... but assuming it's correct, then when said citizens have   
   all been evacuated (most of 'em) then there's prolly gonna be a proper   
   little battle there between the rebels and ukraine huh...   
      
   a situation that's always previously resulted in ukraine being pushed   
   right back and them having to desist... this time, however, they're much   
   better armed?   
      
   the question being: so what's gonna happen THIS time if/when the rebels   
   look like succeeding again?   
      
   will there be anybody coming to ukraine's assistance for example??   
   (dangerous!)   
      
   if the rebels, otoh, start losing, then russia will undoubtedly back   
   'them' up from behind the scenes...   
      
   that is unless someone (or something) interferes with that?   
      
   this then is a potential flash point in all this, where it could all go so   
   horribly wrong...   
      
   i.e., just one atrocity too much from either side, either deliberately or   
   even accidentally, and the whole goddamned thing could literally blow up   
   in our collective faces!   
      
   (imho we're nuts to even 'put' ourselves into such a potentially   
   dangerously-explosive situation, huh... but then the people of wallyworld   
   'will' follow/enact-out their stupid beliefs innit... they're 'committed'   
   to them... even if/when it ultimately destroys 'em...)   
      
   boy, if EVER we needed a nelson mandela it's... now??
