 Not so good morning. Watching this coverage from Israel. Just what the world didn’t need. Bibi ... 
 @40cd5708 I think after this huge massacre of Israelis, IDF will have no option they could accept besides conquering the entire Gaza strip at any price in blood.

There are many Israeli hostages in Gaza now

Sad day

 @63a30250 there's no US occupation of Europe, that's ridiculous

And you reiterating Kremlin talking points, one of the most deceitful, genocidal organisations on Earth, is not in any way equivalent to the talking points of any other.

Countries *choose* to join NATO.

Finland's population is smarter than you - they *wanted* to join NATO

 @63a30250 nuclear winter will destroy 99% of agricultural output

Virtually all of humanity will die, including in Finland.

It will take many decades to recover the planet.

It won't come to this, and optimizing for a better outcome in this scenario, rather than optimizing prevention of this scenario is absolutely ridiculous.

NATO will prevent nuclear war, by discouraging Russian aggression.

 @63a30250 heard of a "nuclear winter"?

And no, inside NATO there's far less chances of Russian aggression in general

Appeasing dictators only leads to *more* aggression, and Finland is far safer under the NATO umbrella

 @63a30250 the German army was destroyed in WWI. It took them 6 years only to rebuild.

Russia will rebuild. NATO is the guarantee that Russia won't dare.

And no, a nuclear war will destroy the planet, it's MAD for entire planet. Whether or not you're in NATO you'll be dead, as everyone else.

NATO membership will make sure Russia will tame its genocidal aggression. 
 nostr:npub1h9vhftrf9dmfklav6epgrvsxzjpl5vlmcghg87pzcwxgv9k54tcs646nwd wait what?  Are you sure yo... 
 @63a30250 Russia's army was largely destroyed, yes

Because the west provided the Ukrainian army with superior weaponry, and because Ukrainians are fighting like hell for a cause they believe in

If a nuclear war starts, whether or not Finland is in NATO won't matter.

Being in NATO means Russia will not invade.

Ukraine sure wishes it was in NATO prior to 2022

Finland did the right thing, making aggression not pay off.

China is watching too. 
 nostr:npub1h9vhftrf9dmfklav6epgrvsxzjpl5vlmcghg87pzcwxgv9k54tcs646nwd yeah now if war breaks out ... 
 @63a30250 hehe are you getting rubles for this nonsense, or did you really gulp up such massive amounts of Ru propaganda that you find this nonsense credible? 
 @63a30250 the pro Russian shills sure are plentiful recently

I wonder what happened

But sure, Finland should keep the old status quo of assuming Russia won't invade. That worked so well in the past! 
 The DOJ is corrupt. This Hunter Biden shit is nonsense. 
 @3967703f that's the Trump prosector still in place no?

Anything new going on? 
 @c67f9a3a thanks!

Do we have the backstory of how this home got abandoned in such condition, leaving so many presumably valuable pieces where they are?
