War in Ukraine

[Rasputin_Vol]

Those don't usually work out well. Better be damn sure who is next in line

I didn't realize this until yesterday or the day before. But apparently, the party next in line or that has the second largest membership in the Duma is the communist party. Now granted, Putin's party holds a sizable advantage, but even still, it wouldn't be surprising considering how quickly things move if they were able to fill the void after a scramble for power. Then at that point, all bets are off and now we have a major situation on our hands...

Yet still have one of the most open societies on the planet.

Then why are you actively trying to change it?

Georgia and 2nd Chechnya.

We will agree to disagree on the definition of “wars” if you are going to include those as examples

Then why are you actively trying to change it?

I didn't say it was perfect.
The only way we have one of the most open societies on the planet is because of our historical willingness to change.
The minute we stop changing is the minute we start becoming less open.

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

So is Putin’s Russia

Why don't you concern yourself with our own border, the vote counting and abuses of the Constitution that we've seen over the last 2 years that are leading us to a fascist dystopia?

The reason we have one of the most open societies on earth is because our forefathers defeated people like you and in general Americans value individual liberty.

Biden expected to ban Russian energy imports today

US President Joe Biden is expected to today ban Russian oil, natural gas and coal imports to the US, according to three sources familiar with the decision.

The US will make the move unilaterally, without its European allies, due to disagreement among European nations about whether to ban Russian energy. EU countries have significantly more exposure to Russian energy than the US.

US officials decided, given the extreme political pressure at home, they could move without the coalition and not create major issues.
Biden is expected to address the news at 10:45 a.m. ET.

lol......The forefathers knew the future success of the country rested on the shoulders of people like me. They viewed people like you as basically neutral.

You've gone beyond delusional.

Actually they started a war because of people like you

You've gone beyond delusional.

And you've remained two-dimensionally simplistic.

Lol. Worse than a guy making nuclear gestures?

They believed communism was the future?

And Putin, in this 2022 context, is no better or worse than many of his peers. Hell, he's showing already that he has a few more bulbs on his tree lit than Biden, Trudeau and most of these European leaders that are enslaving themselves to a green energy agenda and woke politics.

Geezus dude.

Take a break, your perception of reality has really gotten warped.

I'm in the process of my reevaluation. I just put another tally mark in your clueless column.

They understood societal evolution.

I find it ironic that you chirp about the Constitution being abused while openly supporting an autocrat that would wipe his ass with the same.

The casualties in the Vietnam War were extraordinarily high, nearly 10 to 1.

The difference was indeed very high but not close to what was reported.

And you've remained two-dimensionally simplistic.

And he also happens to be right.

He has a habit of doing things in the wrong order, Like the whole skedaddle from Afghanistan.
