Same here old friend.

It's starting to look like Putin has bitten off more than he can chew in Ukraine.

The Libertarian response to this brutality is, um, Luke-warm, at best. Good thing Libertarians will never have any real power...

Ayn Rand acolytes give me a case of dyspepsia. Selfish and self important clods though they be.

BP quits Russia in up to $25 billion hit after Ukraine invasion

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/brita...172214281.html

LONDON (Reuters) - BP is abandoning its stake in Russian oil giant Rosneft in an abrupt and costly end to three decades of operating in the energy-rich country, marking the most significant move yet by a Western company in response to Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.

Rosneft accounts for around half of BP's oil and gas reserves and a third of its production and divesting the 19.75% stake will result in charges of up to $25 billion, the British company said, without saying how it plans to extricate itself.

"I have been deeply shocked and saddened by the situation unfolding in Ukraine and my heart goes out to everyone affected. It has caused us to fundamentally rethink bp's position with Rosneft," BP Chief Executive Bernard Looney said.

Wow!

Ukraine roads company removing road signs to confuse Russians

Ukraine roads company removing road signs to confuse Russians
Reuters - A Ukrainian company in charge of building and maintaining roads said it was removing all road signs that could be used by invading Russian forces to find their way around the country.

"The enemy has poor communications, they cannot navigate the terrain," the company Ukravtodor said in a Facebook update late on Friday. "Let us help them get straight to hell."

It posted an edited photo of a standard road sign in which directions to nearby cities have been replaced with profanities that could be translated as "Go fuck yourself", "Go fuck yourself again" and "Go fuck yourself back in Russia".[/QUOTE]

Old quip: "How does a libertarian stop a panzer division?"
"The market will handle it."
