Only America and the UK can illegally invade another Country and wage war like they done in Iraq.If I remember correctly their wasn't a word from the American Led UN over this.

RTE any update on the Cost of the Children's Hospital.

The European countries and the US need to grow a pair and go toe to toe with Putins aggression. If this was happening in the middle east they'd be straight in.

Has anyone actually told Putin to feck off and grow up yet? He’s pissin everyone off now!

Sleepy joe is going to save us all!

Russia doesn't want Ukraine in NATO. They're not waiting until it happens. Upping the ante. But if they do attack then Ukraine, Finland and Sweden will join it. That leaves only us, Austria, Cyprus and Malta as EU but non-NATO members. Not good.

Putin is bluffing he has to do something before the ground gets soft with spring thaw...Then the tanks can't move...Will try and get some conesssions and then pull his army back...US and UK are standing by Ukraine sending plane loads of weapons..Germany and the EU not doing much
