War in Ukraine

[IluvdoubleD's]

China has been sending relief to Ukraine. You can relax.

 

[VolStrom]

We've allowed plenty of bad decisions related to reliance on foreign powers.
Germany's dependence on Russia for energy is a bigger problem right now.
We can still recognize Putin as a bad guy though.

Germans always think they are superior intellectually. What made them decide that with an overcast sky 70% of the year that they could slap up a bunch of solar panels on their tile covered roofs and power their nation while scapping their nuclear and coal fired power plants? They are dumber than Biden. All of these people must walk around with a digit stuck up their ass. It makes no sense.

It sounds like Putin is expecting this to really drag out and he's getting worrried.

 

[rocytop2624]

That’s interesting? Lol. Do people actually think Russia is using the full night of its military? I mean if Putin really wanted Ukraine it would have been over.

How do you know? There tanks are old they don't seem to know how to fight all they have is nukes.

 

[VolStrom]

So far I've been wrong about everything concerning this war. But it's just hard to believe China would get involved directly in this cluster****.

Why do you find that hard to believe? Joetato and Kamala are total idiots. You democrats installed the worst morons into office that has ever walked the face of the earth. Admit it, your party is the populated by the dumbest people of all time.

They're handling it fine so far It doesn't matter what they do the right will carp about it. That is an absolute given.

 

[Velo Vol]

In hindsight (or maybe even at the time) this was a mistake.

I didn't say he should do it, just that I'd have a newfound respect for him if he did, lol. Unclench your sphincter and laugh more. After dealing with all Ras's BS in this thread, I've decided this place needs to lighten up.

Life happens, then we deal with it. I'd rather laugh than cry.

You should have managed to throw in "Francis" somewhere in that. Otherwise, good work on both posts.

So your definition of fine is Russia is leveling Ukraine cities and we are begging dictators for oil while never even considering drilling oil in our own country? Are you a religious man?

He was another diversity hire just like Kamala was. He wasn't hired for his intellect, he was hired because he was black.

The Q is strong in here.

Food for thought

American Veterans Joining the Ukrainian Army May Run Afoul of Federal Law and Could Lose Benefits or US Citizenship

These Members of Congress Could Make a Profit on US Arms Shipments to Ukraine

Where were these US veterans when our own border was being violated or when Americans were being terrorized by these governors and Brandon during this COVID nonsense?

Volunteers at our border would be called vigilantes - and arrested themselves most likely. We have a rich history of citizens aiding others in time of war from Texas to the AVG in China and the Eagle Squadrons in Britain. There are others, of course; and you know well enough how the Volunteer State got the name. Anyway the post was to show the irony that lawmakers can profit with no bodily threat when "helping" a country in distress, but guys willing to go in harm's way may run afoul of laws the lawmakers (and predecessors) have put in place. You and I may see things differently, but we both despise authority - or more appropriately, basically the people who wield authority; I thought you of all people would see the irony.

Name one thing in your life that is better since Joetato and Kamala took office?

That's interesting that you would mention Texas during this time.

To be fair - a quote from the article:
"But White House officials had concerns about the deployment and the troops were never sent, according to two people familiar with the two December briefings with lawmakers and congressional aides. They also said Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin planned to directly press President Joe Biden to approve the mission."

There has been speculation we are now at DEFCON2 so we’ve likely got Looking Glass and TACAMO birds airborne along with their fighter escorts. They would need airborne refueling.

The tanker could be hanging around to refuel Giggle Girl also know as AF2; if kami and crew can decide what she's going to do and get onboard.

I bet her Secret Service moniker is something like cackles or laffs a lot.

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

Hmmm... now is this real news or fake news? Who actually is reporting this?

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

So, the world is supposed to sit back and watch Russia and China ransack Ukraine because Russia can’t get the job done on their own?

Don't get sucked in to this.

You can if you like... but he's isn't the bad guy that is the most immediate threat, nor the most dangerous threat.

I guess that for the US the great globalism business plan isn't working out any better than just in time delivery.

Name one thing in your life that is better since Joetato and Kamala took office?

Job market is pretty hot if your looking to make a move.

He didn't create any of those jobs. Those were jobs that were put on pause due to the COVID lockdowns.

Sounds good. Get back to me in a year when we are in a recession.
