So in the latest news:
"Western Power force increased health and strength of Russians"
(as well as forcing them to lean about por proper coffee).
QuoteMcDonald's and Starbucks suspend business in Russia
McDonald's says it will temporarily close all 847 of its restaurants in Russia, increasing pressure on other global brands to pause operations in the country following Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.
The closure of the McDonald's restaurants will also carry symbolic importance in Russia, where the first location to open, in central Moscow in 1990, became a symbol of flourishing American capitalism as the Soviet Union fell.
McDonald's said it would continue to pay salaries to its 62,000 employees in Russia. Because of its large size and global reach, the chain is often copied by other brands if it takes a stance on an issue or makes a major operational change.
Coffee giant Starbucks also says it is suspending all business activity in Russia, including shipment of its products and cafes run by a licensee.
The company said that Kuwait-based Alshaya Group, which operates at least 100 Starbucks cafes in Russia, will "provide support to the nearly 2,000 partners in Russia who depend on Starbucks for their livelihood."
:jack: :jack:
So getting the Russians even more cranky by removing their coffee and closing a fast food chain is supposed to help end this senseless war. Come on.
A SF team or two into the Kremlin with air support to cut the head off the snake would seem a more pragmatic approach. Surely the seal team that took down Bin Laden have itchy trigger fingers by now....
We should all be supporting locally owned and run businesses anyway. They really need our support.
Thats irrespective of the senseless conflict.
Coke and JFC have now done similar. All good news for Russian health!

A compound in Pakistan and the centre of Russia are a BIT different...
For every Bin laden success there's a few Iran Hostage style epic fails.
We need the A Team or perhaps 007
Lucky Russia!
Now how can we rid the rest of the world of those awful brands?

Oh Nooooo - Don`t get the Americans involved. Lets face it, they`ve put men on the moon, sent up thousands of satellites so they can watch our homes, see what we`re cooking on our barbeques, look at what we`re having for breakfast, BUT, they missed Bin Laden
