Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Rules For the rest of the Site also accessible on the sidebar.

There have been "news" stories lately, mostly declared as being 'leaked' or 'secret', that both British and French hospitals have been told to prepare for mass war casualties in the near future. Latest "news" story is that French hospitals were told to prepare for up to 50,000 war casualties per month.
Always question... WHY would the governments tell that information to the entire world? It's being broadcast in news articles, so obviously they wanted everyone (including Russia and China) to hear this info.
Please don't think that reporters just uncovered it on their own, or that the leak was on accident. After all we've seen, we have moved beyond that idiocy. This 'info' was set up to be reported in the press. You don't broadcast to multiple hospitals and their staff to prepare for something like that... without full knowledge that it will get out into the press so the entire global public will know.
Again... always ask WHY the government wants to tell the entire world (including Russia and China) this information? Why tell everyone that Britain and France have told their hospitals to expect mass war casualties in the near future?
Which nations have basically lost a seat at the table of the Ukraine peace negotiations? Which nations have nearly zero leverage, so cannot bargain with Russia?
Britain and France are making noise about possibly staging troops in Western Ukraine to ensure a future Ukraine peace. Fat chance of that happening. Neither country can afford it for starters, and neither has the military strength to see it through. Also, the fact that Russia is NOT going to welcome French troops into Ukraine (think Napoleon) comes into play. Placing Euro troops in Western Ukraine would make Ukraine defacto NATO, right on Russia's doorstep. That's not going to be allowed to happen.
Why then are both nations making it known, through their hospital preparedness leak ruse, that they are preparing for massive war casualties in the near future? Maybe because the loud threats of possible Euro-troops in Western Ukraine is about the only leverage they have at this point for negotiations. If they were ACTUALLY planning on this military action, do you really think they would broadcast it 6 months in advance? Nope. It's the chihuahua barking.
Sounds like they are desperately hoping to make WW3 a reality.
Precipice.
they want to lower our vibration by installing fear and it's working. so they're afraid of Russia? some say your thoughts create your reality, perhaps they are ushering in WW3 this way
