Ukraine just asked for Russia to be removed from the security council.  
They are calling this a full war. 

Where did you see this? I’m looking to contextualize 

thank you 🤗

All civilians in Ukraine have been given authorisation to carry firearms. 
The brothers there really need our constant prayers.

not sure why people think Putin isn’t (and hasn’t always) been  intent on invading and that this is some elaborate negation posturing

But make no mistake about it, it was always his intention to do exactly what he is doing. That’s why we as keen students of the Bible are not surprised. 

Just to point out that within two hours of Anthony's post the war was on. Bible education is truly the best

Impressive the subject covid disappeared in the media, from an "invisible war" to a "visible war" who knows the end of these two wars happen together and the announcement of peace and security happens.

Yes true Covid is old news now. Even though it’s still around.
 

Maybe, it might lead to p and s, but even if not it shows how deep we are in the last days with “wars and reports of wars”. 
 

It’s going to be an interesting few days, weeks and months ahead.

Kiev has traffic jams, rush to markets and crowded train stations

  There are queues at gas stations and many of them no longer have gasoline.

My opinion is that... if THIS does lead to PS

then I think things will get much, much, much worse for the following months in 2022, so that nations don't have any other option but to be united and declare PS otherwise they'll know the global nuclear WW3 is gonna to happen.

This is why the organization has told us to keep our cars at least half full of fuel at all times.

The webcam shows things are relatively calm in Ukraine, though it could change at anytime. My good friend's family lives in Odessa.

It was part of the security council meeting that was going on last night. The Ukrainian ambassador asked for it after the invasion began. It seems they were all shocked that it started while they were in a meeting to try to keep peace. 
I don’t have the news article as I was watching the meeting live. .

I‘m trying to get a hold of my friend, but it’s still early morning in Canada. 
 

Yes, I saw one tank that the locals were taking pictures of in a town square. Good to see real time pictures.

 

We pray for the brothers and sisters. 🙏

Map shows locations in Ukraine bombed by Russia,Red dots. .😢

[Áine]

This is very very sad but not unexpected… 

I look at the queues of cars trying to get out and now stuck… and yet how many times were they told to leave!

 
Ireland has now removed the need for visas for people to come home here…

 

Now Russia is saying you try to stop us and it will be the worse that you’ve ever seen

I saw the transcript 

the ambassador asked for the Russian federation quit its chairman post for another country 

[Paulo]

This is the speech Putin gave. He speaks a lot about past, present and future.

Some say that it is the start of what they call the Putin doctrine put in motion, point to the Munich speech of 2007.

Just a reminder we will hide comments that go over the edge with political comments.. “neutrality is not something that applies  to everyone else except little ole me and my two cents of illustrious insight” 🙈

I don’t think the full transcript is available yet, just the summary. But you might be right as far as he just requested he relinquish the chair of presidency.  
When I was listening it seemed he was basically saying that since he violated the article, maybe number 4?, he should be removed. Also, the way he spoke and how he referred to meeting with the others, led me to believe he no longer felt Russia should have a seat at the table. 
That was my first listen to a meeting like that though so I don’t know all the nuances. 
It just so happened that I caught it right before Ukraine started speaking. You could tell he was frustrated by the fact that his planned comments were rendered null and void due to the attack already beginning.

The deliberate misinformation is flying hard from all sides right now.. media included.

 

We should take everything we read and hear with a grain of salt, and perhaps take care to not being spreading propaganda…

 

I wasn’t taking sides. 😉

That is not the best choice of words, but yes, keeping things neutral is what it is expected from moderation in this forum.

[Cushi]

I’m afraid the sanctions imposed on Russia are gonna make things even harder for the brothers and sisters over there. Just another example of how man punishes indiscriminately while Jehovah only punishes the guilty…

And now I am truly scared.
