The Russian incursion into Ukraine has brought out some stark differences in human behavior. The Ukrainians are tough- really tough.
Ukrainian border guards defending a Black Sea island defiantly told an invading Russian warship to “go f–k yourself” when asked to surrender and were killed when the warship opened fire.
The 13 guards were posted on the small but strategic Snake Island off Ukraine’s southeastern border when they were approached by two vessels on Thursday, according to Ukrainian media outlets.
The Russians contacted the guards and identified themselves as a “Russian warship,” demanding that the Ukrainians surrender or they would open fire, according to audio of the exchange.
“This is a Russian warship, I repeat. I suggest you surrender your weapons and capitulate otherwise I will open fire. Do you copy?” the Russians told the border guards.
“This is it,” one of the Ukrainian guards can be heard saying in the clip.
“Should I tell him to go f–k himself?” he appears to ask a comrade.
“Just in case,” another guard responds.
The guard then turns up the volume on his comms and bluntly responds, “Russian warship, go f–k yourself.”
The Russians then killed them all.
In Ukraine, mothers and children are fleeing the war as their husbands and fathers remain to fight for their country.
Mothers and young children have been waving farewell to their loved ones they are forced to leave behind as 100,000 people flee Ukraine amid the chaos caused by Russia‘s invasion.
The UN Refugee Agency said 100,000 people have so far been forced to flee their homes with thousands leaving the country.
UNHCR spokeswoman Shabia Mantoo said: ‘We believe that some 100,000 people must have already left their homes and may be displaced inside the country, and several thousand have crossed international borders.’
Heart-rending pictures show women holding their babies and kissing their partners goodbye before boarding a bus out of Kiev on Thursday.
Many men are required to stay in the country as their loved ones flee after President Volodymyr Zelenskiy signed a decree to start conscripting reservists aged 18-60 from Wednesday, the day before Russia’s invasion began.
One father, 28-year-old Vlad, could be seen handing his two-year-old son to mother Tatiana, 26, as she departed the capital city that has been hit by airstrikes and swarmed by enemy forces.
Not everyone wants to fight for their country. In England, it’s a different story.
In total, 28,526 people crossed the Channel in 1,034 small boats, according to confirmed numbers that were published by the Home Office, slightly higher than previous estimates had shown.
They accounted for the vast majority of the 36,792 people who entered the UK illegally last year and drove the total number of asylum seekers to its highest level in almost two decades.
There were 48,540 asylum applications in 2021, a third higher than at the peak of Europe’s migration crisis in 2016.
While the numbers are likely to have been driven in part by Afghans fleeing the Taliban, the figures do not include the 15,000 Afghan citizens who were evacuated during the Operation Pitting withdrawal from Kabul in August.
And the clincher-
Nine in ten of all migrants who crossed the Channel last year were male, official figures have revealed.
For some time now, men who are fleeing the Middle East and North Africa have been mostly male. The situation has been called “dangerous.”
A flight leaving Afghanistan in the recent exit debacle was said to have “a relative lack of women and children aboard the plane.”
Some people are willing to fight for their country, others not so much. The real message though, is that some men will make sure their families are safe while others simply abandon them to fate. Differences in culture can be interesting.

DrJohn has been a health care professional for more than 40 years. In addition to clinical practice he has done extensive research and has published widely with over 70 original articles and abstracts in the peer-reviewed literature. DrJohn is well known in his field and has lectured on every continent except for Antarctica. He has been married to the same wonderful lady for over 45 years and has three kids- two sons, both of whom are attorneys and one daughter who is in the field of education.
DrJohn was brought up with the concept that one can do well if one is prepared to work hard but nothing in life is guaranteed.
Except for liberals being foolish.
An example I can relay:
Vitali Klitschko, former Heavyweight Champion and mayor of Kyiv, Ukraine. Brother Vladimir, also former Heavyweight Champion, joined the Ukrainian Territorial Defence Forces.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klitschko_brothers
Yes, the Klitschko brothers prefer to stay and fight.
In this they mirror their father who died from radiation poisoning after going into the Chernobyl power plant a the day it exploded.
He organized all the clean-up and did rescue attempts until he was too sick.
Muslim men, otoh, follow their exemplar, Mohammad, who hid from enemies if those enemies were strong.
Mo only attacked when he was far behind front lines and knew he had lots of fighters in front of him.
These men who run from battles in the ME to live on the dole in the West carry on molesting children and Western women because Mo did the same.
Protecting women is not even something they do for their own women!
Putin’s boys may discover they’ve invaded a tough neighborhood.
EX-PRESIDENT TRUMP (aka The Biggest Idiot on the Planet), word for stupid word:
You know Putin very well? Very, very well? Maybe you should tell us more about that, Donnie. You’re kindred spirits? Soul mates? Online chat buddies? You have a lot of perfect telephone conversations? Please, tell us more.
Why don’t you tell us again how it’s not you who is fixated on Trump?
You’re such a pathetic excuse for a human being.
I’ll remain fixated on Trump like I would a poisonous snake in the children’s nursery.
As Putin is, he would like to become.
A week ago: The Truth About Biden’s Fake War With Russia
FJB
Putin says…
As usual, leftists can’t even mean or use political cartoons correctly.
Why does idiot biden not want us to be energy independent. Is he doing putins bidding.
The oil we didn’t pump and sell dirt cheap, we still have.
You know who doesnt have it genius?
Your stupidity is truly phenomenal. First, when oil goes below a certain price, we don’t pump it and certainly don’t sell it. It isn’t economical. Second, WHAT F**KING GOOD IS IT IF WE DON’T USE IT?
Well, later, when you need all you can get, you still have reserves that you didn’t sell.
For example, suppose Putin tried to use his power as the oil supplier to hold off Western Europe as he expands his borders westward. How long might that go on?
I hope Pelosi had stocked up! I’d hate to see that stammering, hand-flailing, sagging old sot with the DT’s in public.
I thought is was inappropriate to keep invoking Trump? Nothing good or positive to say about that idiot moron you, 30,000,000 voters and a boat load of fraud put in office, so you continue to invent reasons to hate Trump? Does that make your embarrassment and shame feel better?
Trump knew Putin well enough to prevent him from causing any trouble for 4 years. What is idiot Biden’s record on that regard?
biden did not get 81 million legal votes
POLL: 62 Percent Of Voters Say Putin Wouldn’t Have Invaded Ukraine If Trump Was Still President
So Putin got Trump elected, but he gets Ukraine when Biden is in office.
So far under Joe Biden:
– Record inflation.
– Disaster in Afghanistan.
– Supply shortages.
– Russia invading Ukraine.
– USA looking weak on world stage.
None of this happened under Trump.
BTW. We are still going to import oil from Russia. Instead of producing more of our own. That’ll show Putin we are serious.
Russia says Finland, Sweden could face consequences if countries move to join NATO
If he moves into NATO countries, all military focus should be placed on killing Putin.
Terms accepted.
Hey, Comrade Greggie, didn’t Biden tell us that he would keep Putin at bay? Didn’t Biden indicate that if Trump was reelected, Putin would invade Ukraine but hey, if we just elect Joey Softserve, Ukraine would be just fine and Putin would be just as afraid of Joey as Corn Pop was?
So what has Biden done to curtain Putin in any way? Claiming sanctions that were place on Russia before he ever got the lead part at the Oval Office?
I agree, Putin needs killing. Let us know when you have that achieved.
BTW, I guess Russia didn’t learn anything from the Finnish in 1939.
See why it is dangerous to have a weak, stupid, incompetent idiot like idiot Biden in office?
Trump know Putin very, very well. That’s why Trump kept him shut up and shut down.
Biden?
He’s the primary reason that Putin and the other dictators of the world are having a field day.
Elections matter, and the resolve and the competency of who sits at the resolute desk is much more important than who paid his campaign funds to be there.
None of this would be happening under Trump.
Because Putin might think Trump would be just crazy enough to start WW3? Yeah, no doubt we would all be sleeping more soundly.
Though I think it might have just ended up being a dividing up of territories. Putin would get all of Eastern Europe. In return, we would be left alone. We could have our own hemisphere, for as long as things lasted.
Thursday night: Zelensky to EU leaders: “This might be the last time you see me alive”
Because Trump did not make every decision based on his own personal political calculations. He did what was best for the United States. Best of all, IT WORKED.
With idiot Biden, Putin sees someone wanting to be reelected (or his puppet masters do), but has already damaged himself by destroying our energy independence (which greatly benefitted Putin), opening our southern border, creating massive shortages and inflation and totally screwing up the Afghanistan. Putin knows all idiot Biden is going to worry about is his own political future (and how long he can cash in on it) and is weakened and distracted by it.
So, idiot Biden, having already damaged the US economy and afraid (AOC might yell at him) to restart our energy production, afraid to sanction Russia to the point that it drives our energy costs up more (which would drive up the costs of everything else) because this would further hurt his approval ratings beyond what the media can suppress. This is why we don’t see maximum pressure sanctions; because of idiot Biden’s failures, they might hurt the US as much as it hurts Russia and Putin.
biden is the worst possible person at this place and at this time.
No doubt. Unless you are someone like Putin, it’s hard to find a situation where idiot Biden would serve a purpose.
What you are not hearing in your media Zelinsky made this bed and wants to drag NATO into his dirty sheets. The Biden admin now has “look there is someone worse than me” Ukraine has long been a willing money laundering operator, a nest for neo nazi factions.
No excuses just facts Putin wants no part of the NWO the west is falling into. He is a strong Nationalist and patriot of Russia.
Ukraine nationalism good
Russian nationalism bad?
Yeah, it’s clear you’ve been listing to very some serious distorters of reality.
Consider: You’ve been desensitize to the deaths of patriots on their own home soil, hopelessly fighting off a nuclear-armed dictator’s efforts to take away their nation.
Who has brought you to that point?
Russian nationalism vs. Ukrainian nationalism, with each side being morally equal? Uh, no. Putin sent his war machine into a neighboring sovereign nation and they started blowing thing up and killing people. He’s going to try to kill the nation’s President.
Putin’s target here would be the same guy that Trump had his famous telephone call with.
Trump sent Javelins. Obama and idiot Biden sent blankets and MRE’s.
You didn’t answer my earlier question; should Putin be charged as a war criminal?
“nationalism”
Yeah, it’s okay to have a secured nation with cultures, languages, and security.
Only a Leftwing fool indoctrinated by the current globalist tripe knocks someone for saying “this is my house, and it’s not yours” then locking it accordingly.
Which is only famous because of Biden’s infamous on-camera f*ck up where he actually admitted to breaking the law and selling his office for profit.
Nothing would make Biden more happy than for Zelensky to be killed.
Greg you are a fool, I dont want to see Ukraine fall. I put forth information so you can see what caused this.
We did not want nukes in Cuba, Putin doesnt want nukes in his back yard either.
Putin is the reason that the missiles are there.
They are not nukes, go read the article and attempt to think not just suck in tv propaganda.
Who brought me here, Mr. Hoffman the history teacher that said read about both sides of history to really understand it. The North was just as guilty as the South in our civil war, the history of it was mostly written by the winners.
You believe only what your tv tells you, pathetic with the world at your fingertips you cant look to see if what they say is truth.
There weren’t two sides to the Hitler story.
That statement is ignorant. Its the left that doesnt see how many historical parallels in their own ideology mirrors that of Hitler. Today White men are the Jews.
I am at a total loss for words.
Because you know it’s true.
You attacked non-existent white strawmen for being “uneducated” then pretend to be the defender of Black Americans and other minorities, all those being much more uneducated as a group.
So what is it?
It’s a manufactured, anti-Christian, anti-logic ideology you’ve been fed to vilify SOME whites as the source of all that’s wrong in the world. It’s collectivist guilt, and it leads to genocide.
And when he says “white” men, that includes Black men who vote for Trump. You call them white supremacists, which is impossible.
Indeed, you have NOTHING to say.
The Germans, like the Leftists now (YOU), thought they were correct in defining Jews as rats just like you losers define non-Leftists as “white supremacists” and uneducated clowns who need to the die.
You are the same as them: Genocidal, and just plain wrong.
Nevertheless, Ukraine should be supported. We don’t need to put troops in Ukraine, the Ukrainians are determined to fight, but they need weapons. Stronger sanctions on Putin will slow him down and hurt him at home.
This opportunity should not be squandered. What we are seeing is the reaction of people who are familiar with socialism and oppression. This is what motivates their patriotic and determined resistance. They KNOW what is coming if they surrender or lose and are bound and determined to fight to the death to prevent it. They face a formidable military force, for sure, but from what we’ve seen so far, the Russian military is no match for the US military and is bogging down against determined, if weaker, resistance. Putin could actually lose his job over this if the Ukrainians can hold out long enough. In light of their alliance, this would affect China’s intentions as well.
IF Ukraine falls, THEN we have a UN situation where our forces can be drawn into direct combat with Russia. Every effort must me exerted to prevent that, but, sadly, we have the worst possible excuse for a leader at a most critical time.
I read a book not too long ago called “Last Stands”. Perhaps several stories out of Ukraine can be added to that book.
Joe has retired to Delaware to nap and eat ice cream.
He expects to address how it’s going NEXT MONTH!
“Let’s have a conversation another month or so to see if they’re working,” Biden said.
We can already see that “they” are NOT working, joe!
The horse is already out of the barn.
Zelensky and his people are building a legend. Think Travis, Bowie, and Crockett. And the 6th of March is nor far off.
Chosin, Bastogne, Hurtgen forest, Stalingrad.
“The Ghost of Kyiv”
UKRAINE DESTROYS RUSSIAN CONVOYPUTIN HUMILIATED AS 3,500 TROOPS KILLED, 200 CAPTURED…Populist Press
It would seem that the Ukrainian forces may have more fight in them than Putin had anticipated. Should this be Putin’s Waterloo, the biden junta will be most displeased. The biden junta would prefer the war to be protracted thereby with help of the democrat media, gloss over his utter domestic failures.
