ICARUS Part 3
Parttimer we have to agree to disagree. This is a false flag in my opinion. Many of your points you preface with 'I believe' , so they're your opinions. My opinion is Putin doesn't want to go to war and is putting on a show of strength to protect his interests.
I agree with this.
NATO likewise are don't want to look like they're backing down. Biden has suggested Russia can invade Ukraine, but not go in hard, the Ukrainian Foreign office have stated the Russian troops have been there since April with no issues, and Macron is suggesting this will be dealt with by diplomacy.
I agree with this
Its posturing from both sides and ultimately it should play out with both sides going back to their people claiming a 'moral ' victory unless one party goes off script looking for a popularity boost.
I also agree with this.
So a lesson in communicating on Bulletin Boards for all of us. We can appear to disagree with a posters view. We respond and break things down and then find out we agree on the fundamentals after all.
Speaking generally to the board now so not directed at any individual...
Does that remind you of anything? Like for instance sentiment of a share (positive or negative) can create an underlying tone on these boards when essentially we all agree on the fundamentals? If however you don't agree on the basic soundness of the fundamentals then why the heck are you here at all?
ICARUS PART2
s anyone kicking up a fuss over USA/ Saudi invading Yemen?
Houthis were bombing American interests and Saudis for quite some time, again in proxy from IRAN- read up on history of Islam.
Oh, thats right, our media propaganda machine don't want you to know about that one.
I saw the pictures of the bombed schools and hospitals on the BBC
When people start to realise NATO aren't necessarily the good guys is the day we start moving to a more peaceful world.
It's a free world (here at least) so you are entitled to your opinion
Ukraine is a false flag
Yes they decided to leave a failing totalitarian system because it couldnt feed their people.
start looking for whats really going in the waworld rather that having your attention diverted
Ditto
Have a nice day :-)
ICARUS
Bacefook is Putin really the aggressor though?
-Yes, he amassed his troops to the boarder and began guesturing, posturing and rhetorical historica bleating.
The old soviet Union was broken up on the understanding Russia would have a buffer to NATO nations
NOPE! In late 1991, the leaders of three of the Union's founding and largest republics (the Russian SFSR, the Ukrainian SSR and the Byelorussian SSR) declared that the Soviet Union no longer existed, and 11 more republics joined them shortly thereafter. Gorbachev had to resign his office as president and what was left of the parliament to formally acknowledge the Union's collapse as a fait accompli.
The process began with growing unrest in the Union's various constituent national republics developing into an incessant political and legislative conflict between them and the central government. Estonia was the first Soviet republic to declare state sovereignty inside the Union in 1988. Lithuania was the first republic to declare independence from the USSR in the Act of March 11, 1990 (not counting the autonomy of Nakhchivan, which had declared independence from both the USSR and the Azerbaijan SSR a few weeks earlier, later rejoining Azerbaijan)
yet here we are with NATO trying to bring Ukraine into the fold and box Russia in.
Nope! I believe Russian backed separatists illegally entered Ukraine to support an internal struggle in the Crimea prior to its' axenization!
So Russia amass some troops which the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry tell us have been peacefully close to their border since April without any indication of escalation.
Nope I believe Russian President Vladimir Putin has sternly warned NATO against deploying its troops and weapons to Ukraine, on November 30th saying it represents a red line for Russia and would trigger a strong response. NATO headed that message, haven't deployed troops yet Putin still speaks of danger???
Can you imagine if the roles were reversed and somehow USA were in Russia's position.
What, like if RUssia decided to place ICBMs on Cuba??
We would already be at war....see answer above!
. and let's say Russia were to invade. NATO/ the Americans literally invade a new country every couple of years under 'regime change' and hows that worked out for the people of those countries? -
Possibly your first valid point..
On which asset sale?
Are there several asset sale process?
Running concurrently?
We only know that one DD has completed
TBF Mac the green boxes these days are very obvious. At least you hold a decent convo with those that challenge or question you, myself included (some of the time).
You have more to offer the board in my humble opinion when you don’t repeatedly post the RNS”s.
I may not agree with your politics but you are consistent so fair play sir.
Now that’s interesting…..
WINDDANCER you post for almost the first time stating the share is a scam after RNS reserves released? I would concentrate on closing your short.
Redpanda with multiple concurrent asset sales we will only be required to vote on the last one, when it accounts for 3/4 of remaining assets.
Unless of course the last one is a JV with NN which leads to EUA2… just saying.
And after a very quick search an article that intimates the publishers of the article Mac linked to could be a Russian Trojan horse.. just saying…! https://newrepublic.com/article/156788/zero-hedge-russian-trojan-horse
..which won’t happen because it’s all just hyped by the media.
Which was your argument in the first place!
Phew! Well with that I shall sleep well tonight.
I look forward to more news regarding EUA this week
Just to clarify I have never suggested any impending military action.
Thems the facts…
Nothing to do with the invasion (so called). I believe that thread has very little to do with EUA and the share price.
We are just here waiting for progress and those that are less confident than others are looking to pin a lack of share price increase on to something to make them feel better.
Troubled because I believe the average person respects the sacrifices others make on their behalf, that’s all.
TBH Mac I was troubled by your responses to CTC
As a fellow veteran with 13 years service I didn’t appreciate your trivialisation of w2 years service which would almost certainly include family and personal sacrifice.
Maybe it’s a misguided band of brothers thing but hey that’s life eh?
Back to the facts, why would you quote Chinese wiki as facts?
Condescending, well done ! I also believe you still owe me 10 laps of the ship for November!
The most relevant fact is that the FSP was ended, surely Mac?
I’m afraid you’re beginning to sound like the alter ego of GFD. Chill.
Best wishes and thoughts with you all.
Loved the way you suggested everyone else makes the most of their life chances whilst you confront your biggest challenge. Very selfless, am I surprised?
No, I love a Arsenalles post.
Dear Albert,
I too sold shares in a company today.
I had never previously posted on its LSE page
I did not feel the need to tell anyone
Thank you for your kind considerate notification.
Well worth a read for yet another angle on where we could end up!

Tick
If he comes back, I have a question to ask him
It wasn’t ignored by me Tigra, went hunting for some spondoolies and have 39k more shares now
Do we have any net smelter royalty agreements published?..
