Hitler wasn't dumb enough to try and invade Sweden. I doubt Putin really tries and this will probably make Finland run faster to NATO

WASHINGTON, March 2 (Reuters) - The United States is preparing a sanctions package targeting more Russian oligarchs as well as their companies and assets, two sources familiar with the matter said on Wednesday, as Washington steps up pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin over Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.

Some sanctions could be announced as early as this week, one of the sources told Reuters, adding that details are still being worked out. Washington is also readying sanctions against more officials in Putin's inner circle, the source said.


Washington has repeatedly warned that it was prepared to impose further costs on wealthy Russians. The U.S. Justice Department on Wednesday launched a task force known as "KleptoCapture" aimed at straining the finances of Russia's oligarchs.

I'm not understanding why ain't nobody tryna assassinate either of 'em.

Have to try to turn someone within their inner circle. Don't know enough about the guy in Belarus, but Putin has been socially distancing himself from everyone.

Everybody spies on everybody.

Israel definitely spies on us. We caught one of their spies--Jonathan Pollard--and kept him in federal prison for nearly 30 years to prove a point.

Yeah, there are certain things that are fair in love and war. Like you said, everybody spies and everybody knows it. But if they catch your spy, then its


That's why Russia can't say nothing about us using Anonymous to hack them right now. It aint like they wasn't doing it to us. Whats good for the gander is good for the goose.

And we have plausible deniability when it comes to Anonymous. If they find out that there was official government communication with Anonymous, then we'll be in trouble.

Until then its

If they co-sign Russia using overwhelming force to crush a weaker neighbor for strategic purposes, then the US Government will duly note it and use it as a pretext for invasion/regime change in Cuba/Venezuela at the slightest sign of attitude/hostility, or merely to appease the Cuban/Venezuelan diaspora.

Russia's invasion of Ukraine and Vladimir Putin's comments that Moscow's nuclear deterrent is on high alert have unleashed a wave of anxiety in Central Europe, with people rushing to buy iodine which they believe may protect them from radiation.

From Poland to Bulgaria, people living in the former Soviet-era satellite states have also jammed passport offices, topped up their fuel tanks and prepared to leave at a moment's notice.


Others enquired about joining the military.

"In the past six days Bulgarian pharmacies have sold as much [iodine] as they sell for a year," said Nikolay Kostov, chair of the Pharmacies Union. "Some pharmacies are already out of stock. We have ordered new quantities but I am afraid they will not last very long."
