War in Ukraine

[AM64]

Wonder if the kind and generous Russians let them take one bag each when they loaded them into cattle cars. Sounds like something out of history.

Because Russia IS justified, by the very same metric as the US uses to justify our invasions, broad self defense. That isnt rooting for Putin, that is reality.

Putin isn’t justified in his invasion no more than we were justified in our invasion of Iraq. The only difference is Ukraine wasn’t a belligerent.

People who know what the hell they are talking about have been talking about the cauldroning of Eastern Ukraine for weeks. Good to see though that some are starting to break the bad news to those who were under a false view that Ukraine was winning or there was a stalemate. No, no, no. The East is close to falling. Once that happens, its all over but Zelensky's last stand up act.

Going to be a lot of cope from many over the next couple weeks.

Just like with COVID, you can only lie for so long.

Per my buddy above, yes there are plenty of Aryan groups in Ukraine but not Nazi like we tend to think of them, anti semetic, etc. just ultra nationalist and hating Russians

Ukrainians hating Russians is enough to heighten short guy Pootin's inferiority complex. It's obvious now that Ukraine forced his hand and made him invade. Ukrainians probably even did mean tweets.

If Biden said he wanted to be in charge of Canada, and Canada said no?

Oh, cannot invade Canada; that would terminally confuse draft dodgers.

 

[Septic]

Oh do tell.

Well you see, Russia was afraid that Ukraine would want to join a defensive alliance that would prevent Russia from invadi.....


Oh wait.

Just curious, but who is that guy pictured that is blurred out behind the mayor being interviewed @ around the 5:00 mark? Incidentally, the mayor's name is Artem Semenikhin... might want to Google that guy.

NYC thieves captured on video taking bulletproof vests meant for Ukraine

Surveillance video shows hoodie-wearing thieves brazenly steal bulletproof vests meant for Ukraine, loading cardboard boxes into vans and driving off.

Surveillance footage shows robbers hauling in boxes of donated bulletproof vests onto vans outside the Ukrainian Congress Committee of America in the East Village.

You don't think this wouldn't have happened in Odessa or in Poland? No different than those weapons drops in Syria that ended up in the hands of ISIS?

Redhats are notorious for criticizing liberals for "throwing money" at problems. But here we are thinking it is a good idea to not only throw billions of dollars down a rat hole, but also a bunch of weapons with no accountability with regards to who the hell gets them.

Staggering ineptitude displayed by Putin, a guy I once thought was savvy.

 

[AM64]

I was just looking at the M14 history ,I had no idea that there were 4 different manufacturers. About 1.3 million produced . That’s impressive

Even more impressive was that McNamara started the campaign to demolish all of them. The M14 issued to me in Basic was an H&R. Absolutely reliable.

Sadly, most of our society lives in this weird delusional world our media and politicians create. America has been turned into a sort of Fun House and when you try and show people they are in the Fun House, they lash out.

Hah, they need them just as much in NYC. Hopefully some make it to Chicago too.

Nothing to see here. Probably just Antifa gearing up for the next round of mostly peaceful demonstrations.

Nah, Pootin's just a short guy with a chip on his shoulder. Your overachieving average thug.

This entire situation has been a black pill moment for me. You've got people flying Ukrainian flags in Springfield, TN, Rohingya Muslims in Burma flying the flag and black men from Chicago signing up to fight in Ukraine.

It is for the special operations into New Jersey.

We'll see. The next couple of weeks will be fun.

It's almost like Christmas. Keep your fingers crossed and maybe they will bomb a church sheltering nuns and special needs kids.

I don't know you nor care to, but you come across as a total POS.

They'll be fun why? As much as you claim you don't care if Putin takes an L from time to time I swear we catch you shaking pom poms.

Well, it's pretty blurry but...could it be VN Putin Love Brigade's favorite boogeyman....(drumroll) - Stepan Bandera??
Okay, what do I win?!!
And what does that mean to you?

Fun as far as seeing people like Septic cope with being completely wrong.

Yeah, Im not the guy who advocates for others to fight on my behalf and then demean their service by comparing them to plumbers. You trying to moralize is amusing.

So, not because it's morally justified, but because - as you state - the U.S. does wrong, too.
That is some kind of sick logic or you're a Russian sympathetic too cowardly to say so.

 

[luthervol]

I'm guessing you misrepresent Putin's actions at least as much as you misrepresented my position.
Not sure if it's intentional or you're just not very bright.
