War in Ukraine

[NorthDallas40]

He actually would be justified, using the US's own broad definition of self defense. The US, through sanctions and material support for the terrorists in Ukraine, are a direct threat to Russia. Of course Russia would be idiotic to do it, but they would be justified.

 

[NorthDallas40]

They don't to detonate a nuke to escalate. Do you guys even think before you post? The US/NATO need Russia to use a nuke to get their population behind a western escalation that will likely require boots on the ground as Western boots on the ground is the only thing standing between Russia and victory.

You are insane.

I’m going more with just mentally challenged. Insanity can come with a very high level of cognitive function that we just don’t see in the Russian parrots here

These guys are stuck in 1989. Hell, you can make an argument that China isn't a pure communist country and implements more capitalist in its economy than the US or any other Western nation right now. Not saying China is perfect, but the one thing China does well is what the US was great at 40 years ago.

I remember you saying many of these guys were stuck in that mindset that Russia is still the Soviet Union. Last night proved it once again.

I'm also beginning to think some of these guys believe Rocky 4 is non-fiction.

You are insane.

No, US justification for war over the last few decades, is insane. Tell me how Russia would be wrong in using that justification to move on Alaska.

Notice how no one has factually refuted my post, par for the course in this thread. Russia just escalated by calling up 300K reserves, increased strikes on Ukrainian infrastructure, etc. They don't need a dirty bomb for them to be given a reason to escalate.

Use a nuke. That was the implication. Good lord.

Cleansing Ukraine of the Russian invading force wouldn't require western boots on the ground.

You said Russia would use a nuke and blame it on Ukraine so they could escalate. Which makes zero sense.

You think Ukraine is going to take recently annexed portions of Russia? Are you delusional?

Look dude the stupidity in your own post refuted itself. Russia’s “escalation” this far is only losing ground faster. That’s it. At the rate they are “escalating” they are about one more level of escalation of being out of Crimea even by Christmas.

Probably something he heard while watching Chris Hayes or Morning Joe.

It's been well documented the there are Nazis and ultranationalists in Ukraine. I tell you what. I'll be nice enough and provide some more proof for you later. How does that sound?

Never argued they dont exist.

Just pointing out they hold very little power in Ukraine, similar to how little power commies still hold in Russia.

I am sure you will claim X, Y, and Z as proof of nazism. But the parties that represent those causes dont hold a lot of power.

And the use of the Deaths head in a military uniform is not proof positive of nazism. But maybe you will post the previous Russian proof with the Sims cards.

At this point that’s exactly what is happening and Russia can’t stop them Larry. Have they at least found out where the territorial boundaries are finally?

 

[volfanhill]

I said they would use a dirty bomb. That would then be their excuse to use a nuke back. Of course only a few idiots would believe that excuse. Let me help you. The international community, even china, won't be cool with Russia using a nuke. Perhaps china will if Russia claims it's a tit for tat response. Do you possess critical thinking skills?

The escalation so far has been mostly in strikes on infrastructure. The 300k is just now starting to trickle into positions. If you are worried about rates, you should be worried about the rate Ukraine is losing man and machine in failed offensives around Kherson. THAT is unsustainable.

"Every single democrat voted to send weapons to neo Nazis in Ukraine." Dude, I already agreed that there are Nazis in Ukraine, and I added that there are probably a higher percentage of Nazis in the base of the Republican Party, USA. Ukraine is not governed by Nazis. It is a functional democratic republic, where the people elected a Jewish President. Ding. Ding. Ding. Our aid to Ukraine goes to support efforts of the entire population, against extremely brutal, invading Russian armies. You are parroting Russian propaganda for that invasion. The question is, why?

Lol. You really have been brainwashed by the mainstream media and your political party. Ukraine has had an increasing neo- Nazi problem since at least 2012. Maybe sooner than that. Even your president Jim Crow Joe met with the leader of the openly neo Nazi Svoboda Party leader back in 2012. Even one of the democrat party's favorite far left publications in Forward magazine admitted it was a problem just last year.

You are parroting what you hear from the mainstream media and democrat party. The question is, why?

Yep sure has. Specifically things like apartment buildings and business areas. Because since they are getting their asses handed to them by actual combat troops they’re gonna go pick a more even fight with a bunch of babushkas Larry.

I was assured by our resident Russian trolls they had the “strategic” city of Bakhmut locked up. WTF?!

My 14 year old could explain himself better than you. Not only do you lack critical thinking skills but you can't even adequately explain your hypothetical scenario.

They hold much power behind the scenes along with many of their billionaire oligarchs. Just like the in the U.S. the military industrial complex, many other corporations, and billionaire oligarchs hold power here.

Now wait... what? Our economic enemy? Really?

I've never heard that thrown out before. What in the world have the Europeans done to deserve to be labeled an enemy? If you say the UK, that may carry more weight, but the Europeans collectively are now considered to be economic enemies? WOW...

Competitors, partners, customers, or suppliers depending on the situation.
