The world seems pretty united with Ukraine. As people everywhere can plainly see that Russia has no business invading Ukraine.

I haven’t heard China say anything one way or the other.

But, other than that the world seems to stand with Ukraine and against Putin.

Is this making him a pariah?
 
Yes, but he's no longer "becoming". He's been a pariah since the first Russian stepped foot into Ukraine a week ago.

I think if this is true then we can hopefully rule out a world war.

Unless it was the world v Russia
 
Well, duh!

I'd have to agree with that. Regardless his reasons, this was an utterly foolish war upon which to embark. Even if he "wins" he loses big time internationally.

Is that true?
I hope so.

Pentagon official says Russian troops have 'deliberately punched holes' in their own gas tanks in apparent attempts to avoid combat as morale declines: report​


 
Russia has the advantage of a Madman with Nukes.
We have become nuclear hostages.
there are NO nukes on planet earth...
the aliens removed or disabled all of them in the eighties...

Nuclear anxiety has been part of the American psyche since the United States dropped atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945. What before had seemed like science fiction suddenly became reality:
Humanity was armed with the power to destroy civilization.
They observed it but did nothing...

On 25 July 1946, the United States conducted the first-ever underwater nuclear explosion. Test Baker, detonated at the Bikini Atoll in the Pacific Ocean,
They observed it and did not let us do it again...

On October 4, 1957, the USSR launched Sputnik, the first artificial satellite to orbit Earth. The satellite, an 85-kilogram (187-pound) metal sphere the size of a basketball, was launched on a huge rocket and orbited Earth at 29,000 kilometers per hour (18,000 miles per hour) for three months.
They observed it and even helped us along... Some people think that the space race was to take our mine off of killing each other

Tsar Bomba, (Russian: “King of Bombs”), byname of RDS-220, also called Big Ivan, Soviet thermonuclear bomb that was detonated in a test over Novaya Zemlya Island in the Arctic Ocean on October 30, 1961. The largest nuclear weapon ever set off, it produced the most powerful human-made explosion ever recorded.
They observed it and did not let us do it again... It was thought that they enhanced the explosion to scare us... Well, it certainly did... Never did that again...

On 9 July 1962, the United States conducted the 'Starfish Prime' nuclear test, one of a series of five aimed at testing the effects of nuclear weapons in high altitudes / lower outer space. The explosion took place 400 kilometers above the Johnston Atoll in the Northern Pacific Ocean.

They observed it and boy were they pissed... Almost kicked us out of space altogether

In the 1960s and ’70s, repeated UFO sightings emerged at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana, a storage site for nuclear-tipped intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs). At one such alleged sighting in 1967, former Air Force Capt. Robert Salas says several of those missiles became inoperative at the same time base security reported seeing a glowing red object, about 30 feet in diameter, hovering over the facility. Salas, who commanded ICBMs as a launch officer told CNN the “missiles began going into what's called a ‘no-go condition,’ or un-launchable.”

In late December 1980, air-traffic controllers encountered something alarming near Royal Air Force Bentwaters in England. Used by the U.S. Air Force as a European foothold during the Cold War, Bentwaters housed a secret stash of nuclear weapons in 25 fortified underground bunkers.

A pariah to the West in particular and democracies in general? Yup. To other autocracies? Not so much.
 
yes.....he fkd up.....and he has now dragged the Russian people into being a pariah nation......this is what happens when freedom of the press and freedom of speech are prohibited......for all the bickering back and forth that we in free nations do in the press it is this very freedom to bicker back and forth that keeps us free......I despise Fox and the ultra right talking heads but I will always acknowledge their right to say whatever they want.......our problem is we have allowed ourselves to give over to nationalism and we have dumbed down into thinking that braggadocio and a chest pounding strongman makes a good leader.......the very exact thing the Russian people have done.....
