Russia may also be using this to engage America and help China. Gets USA off their back.
Could be many reasons. But mostly they want to have more I fluency over the Ukraine again.

A new day, a new guff. Since when do you apologize and guilt then trip for forgiveness ?

Apart from "I forgive you" being 3 words, its correct and the sentiment is one I support.

Sorry is really easy to say. Just rip out a few tears Krudd Style and job done.

If I was to be critical of the statement though, I would say that it could have focused more on how its a joint effort to move beyond sorry to meaningful, reciprocated action. Could have made the same point without being such an obvious trigger for the left.

I'm currently not quite understanding why Russia wants to invade Ukraine. If we can believe the media, it sounds like it will be inevitable and happening within days.

Are they going in to protect their own native Russians who currently reside in Ukraine?
Are they going in to overthrow the current political party?
Are they going in to reclaim lands they always thought were theirs and were during the Soviet era?

Almost all news reports, report on the fact there will, or could be, an attack, yet none ever explain the reasons why.

WTF is going on? Because this could become really serious.

Am not sure if this is all true, but saw it floating around on the weekend and it might give some of the "whys"?

Why hasn't there been a mention of the Hillary spying thing in here? Very odd.

obvious trigger for the left.

So a narcissistic apology which insists on forgiveness is only seen that way by the left ? You’re probably right, cos my suspicion has always been that conservatives were born without the empathy compassion and respect gene.

Well mate it seems the right of your party have manufactured a weapons grade f**k up. Unlike days gone by when the party room would find a compromise bewteen the centre, left and right, the right have taken an all or nothing approach. Prepared to bring down the party if they don’t get what they want. If an election was held next Saturday they are looking at Labor +25 seats, LNP -25 seats. <shakes head>

Hmmm… this is the first post in the thread
