Chalk and cheese, you’ve finally lost the plot.
Well clearly if you were running things, you would be a pussy and hand Vlad whatever he wants. That’s what the cold war was all about, threats and standing up to their bullshit.
I never said it wasn’t chalk and cheese. But the world needs to stand up to tyrants. Not roll over to them because we fear altercation. That plays into their hands.
You’re prepared to wipe out the planet, that’s simply delirious.
Gronky, we can’t always get what we want.
Well mate, you might was well hand over everything to Lex Luthor, because the cucks are not prepared to fight for what’s right. They cave in to every threat.
Ok you just painted the west as being the bad guys. We should have let Vlad be Vlad. Now look what we’ve done.
We’ve been over this. Trump will give Putin what he was always striving for and the propaganda machine will frame it as a huge win for the human race. Trump the Peacemaker. Ukraine? Oh well, it’s really a big country and …. don’t a lot of them speak Russian anyway ? So can they still join NATO ? No, that’s not allowed because …… reasons. Vlad’s reasons.
WTF are you on about? We're talking about the US. In Australia, woke vs the economy still isn't the issue, and so it hasn't really been easy (or necessary) to split the parties. The LNP isn't yet the party of the working class the way the Republican party is.
I only saw evidence of violence by one side, and an attempt to blame the victims.
WTF are you on about ?
Where did you look ?
Crimea has been Russian ever since it was inhabited by a majority of ethnic Russians. Horse trading during the Soviet era made it notionally Ukrainian. I think Ukraine needs to cut its losses and consolidate wherever the majority of people identify as Ukrainian. Fix the borders, join NATO and end Russian influence in the country. Unfortunately it means abandoning the ethnic Ukrainians within Crimea to Russia.There you go, 4 days in and Trump is already carving up Ukraine.
'Crimea is gone' — Senior Trump advisor says Ukraine needs to have 'realistic' war aims
A senior advisor to Donald Trump has said Ukraine needs to be "realistic" in its aims for the war, adding the Russian-occupied peninsula of Crimea was "gone."kyivindependent.com
Freeing Kuwait required a US invasion, which Iraq had no counter for. Meanwhile Russia has plenty up its sleeve to keep rivals out of Ukraine. They have already threatened nuclear retaliation. Apples and oranges.
The CCP is pretty certain we will blink first regarding Taiwan as well. I personally think they're right. The West has no appetite for the kind of losses we might incur if we really put our foot down in Ukraine or Taiwan.
ffs
