For Those Who Might Be Wondering Why We Might Be In Ukraine

Thank you. I’m glad we agree that putins original plan to invade and conquer Kyiv and reabsorb Ukraine under Russian (Putin) control failed and they tried to save face by moving their goalposts.


Where are now reading this. You don’t recall the failed convoy to Kyiv?


I guess we’ll see. After they run out of prisoners who are they gonna force into conscription?


That’s one spin, I suppose.


Agreed. Makes me think you got some bad info


Where’s he renting them from? Or maybe they’re conscripts over 60 and under 20


Putin is killing generals and begging for help from North Korea. They’re not returning to their former might.


According to your rwcj echo chamber sites
You're hopelessly misinformed and a waste of time. If I made a false statement above point it out with authority.
 
My my, checked the news not a single word about another massive victory by the Ukrainians. They must have won the war, right?:rolleyes:

lol according to the latest Russian information, they now have committed over 90% of their Military to this 3 day incursion into Ukraine.

That link show over 11,000 pieces of equipment destroyed, or abandoned to Ukraine.

https://english.alarabiya.net/News/...equipment-weapons-in-counter-offensive-Report
This link reports about 20% of the equipment given Ukraine has been lost.

Russia has not gained an inch of land in Ukraine since late May, early July, and since then has lost hundreds of square kilometers of territory. Ukraine has broken into the second defence line near Robertine. As such Russia is now building new lines by Tolmark.

Yes wrongway....Russia is sure winning!!

I did in post 950, which you ignored and posted your opinion, which doesn’t merit effort beyond logical refutation.
 
I leave for a little trip and come back to a big silence about Ukraine. Are there any Russians left to kill?

You and Becky are the only ones whining about Ukraine.

Of course there was silence when you left.

And now they are getting involved in helping apartheid Israel, which in turn has wrecked the Saudi-Israel "normalization" of relations that Biden desires, and could yet see things potentially get worse with Hezbollah and Iran getting directly involved to Israel's north. Saudi-Israel normalization was supposed to be the US response to the normalization of relations between the Saudis and the Iranians at the urging of the Chinese.

I thought the whole point was for the US to leave the Middle East as quietly as possible, focus on Ukraine and then attack China? That strategy is now a massive wreck. Biden's foreign policy has been so disastrous that it would be hilarious if it didn't cause so much death, poverty and suffering, so it just makes me angry instead.

Where do you come up with this shit? Do you just pull it out of your ass? Or can you actually point to any American Foreign policies of Bidens?

Touched a nerve, did I? Biden is the one backing apartheid Israel right now, while already bogged down in Ukraine.

If it was Trump who was president right now, you'd probably agree with me.

So to paraphrase, no you don't have any policy you can point to. You just pull it from your ass. Thanks for the confirmation.
Edit, I don't give a shit about Trump or Biden, I never voted for either.....*chuckles*

Biden said that he is backing Israel. Are you disputing this? Disputing the obvious?

I didn't vote for Trump or Biden either.

I am not disputing that Biden is supporting Israel in the conflict unleashed by Hamas, But that is not what you said.

I then asked if you could point to policy showing this, otherwise I must assume you're pulling this out of your ass.

So then don't project who or what I support, or that if X was in charge instead of Y, I'd change my opinion!

This makes your opinion utterly worthless.

What do you think pulling out of Afghanistan was all about? It was preparing the US for the proxy war against Russia and later conflict in the Far East against China. Obama started the "Pivot to Asia" back during his second term as president. Or do you really think that Russia was "unprovoked".

The US establishment doesn't want to be bogged down in the Middle East when they need to harm Russia and China in the upcoming period with proxy wars. What I find incredible is that the Biden administration has had all these foreign policy disasters, and so many people are so blindly partisan in the nonsensical culture wars that they will let Biden do whatever disasters without calling him out on it.

This makes your opinion utterly worthless.
In many ways, Biden is worse than Trump. There's even been more US Covid deaths under Biden, which is some achievement considering how much Trump acted like a complete maniac over that issue for months and months. And Biden's foreign policy, oh dear, oh dear. Is he trying to impersonate Jimmy Carter on that?

It was a Trump agreement, that Biden carried out. Google it.

Just more shit out of your ass, you have nothing tangible to point to, just your own opinion.

I wasn't making a value judgement on Biden vs Trump just that you need to pick a side in a binary system. The only thing you gain by being a fence sitter is always being able to say "whoa this wasn't my fault, I voted for Rosanne!" You might as well vote for the Jack Bauer/John Wick ticket for all your vote is worth at that point. I've no patience for that bullshit.

How many deaths due to Covid under which president kinda doesn't matter. Trump is the one who let it get out of hand. You might as well set a house on fire and then when I get in you can start telling me about how when you left the fire was just in the kitchen but now the entire house is on fire! WTF man. No, you fucked up and I had to try desperately to fix your fuck up. We are STILL suffering the fall out of Trump and his cronies in the "Don't let them mask you up again!" Not that those assholes masked up the first time.

Jimmy Carter? Better than Reagan if we're being honest.

Trump has loads of faults, but I somehow doubt that he'd have pulled US troops out of Afghanistan like that. Trump's style is more a shouting match with Putin that pushes things very hard, to the brink of war (like he did with Kim Jong Un) and then try to make some sort of deal. Trump would likely have confronted China much earlier. Biden's calculations were different, i.e. expand NATO, drain and dismember Russia and then do the same with China later.

There was that famous meeting with Donald Trump and European leaders during Trump's time as president, where he asked Germany why they were doing cosy gas deals with Russia when the Russians were supposed to be "our rivals"? Trump then proceeded to say that he didn't see the point of NATO when the US pays so much into it while European countries trade with "our rivals" and pay far less into NATO. It's obvious that this massively spooked the Bidens, Clintons and Obamas in the Democratic Party establishment, thus the Democrats wanting to expand NATO as a priority and to wield European politicians to US foreign policy.

Germany had previously been doing trade deals with Russia, and military intelligence co-operation with NATO and the US. The German ruling class thought that by playing both the US and Russia that Germany could carve out a position of power in Europe, but the US wrecked all that with the Ukraine war. Germany now faces a future of deindustrialization like what Thatcher did to Britain in the 1980s, and like the Rust Belt in the US.

Just more shit out of your ass, you have nothing tangible to point to, just your own opinion.
You don't know of Obama's "Pivot to Asia"? I'll tell you something else that you probably don't know. Obama used to choose a list of people, every Tuesday if I remember right, who were to be killed by drone strike in the Middle East and North Africa. All males of combat age were treated as combatants in statistics. Some weddings and funerals were also bombed.

Julian Assange, an Australian journalist and founder of Wikileaks, is still being persecuted and locked up in a British prison, without charge, on US orders. His crime? He embarrassed the US federal government by exposing US war crimes, like US air force personnel shooting down civilians and laughing while they did it. They want Assange extradited to the US (he isn't a US citizen) to face something like 175 years in prison. If they succeed, every journalist will be fearful to report inconvenient facts of war crimes.

I vote FOR something. Merely voting against something is ridiculous.

Trump could come back to power. How is it possible? Do Democrats ask themselves that? He got power in 2016 because the DNC decided to make Hillary Clinton its nominee instead of Bernie Sanders.

Jimmy Carter? Better than Reagan if we're being honest.
True, but Carter's disasters paved the way for the huge disasters of Reagan. It's often forgotten that Carter first got the evangelicals highly involved in national politics in 1976 against Ford, before losing them BIG to Reagan in 1980. The Carter administration also started arming mujahideen in Afghanistan against the Soviets (which Reagan expanded) and alienated groups like trade unionists (PATCO stopped backing Carter because of Carter's policies, with the PATCO leadership then backing Reagan, before Reagan then proceeded to break PATCO's strike and sack every single striker). Even the middle class groups, like the feminist groups, Carter alienated. Carter even lost Massachusetts in 1980, thanks to the whole primary rivalry with Ted Kennedy. All these things paved the way for it to be possible for Reagan to become president.

Do Democrats today ever ask themselves how it was possible to go from two Obama terms as president to Trump becoming president? Do they ask themselves how it is possible that Trump might win the presidency again in 2024?

Thanks for helping me prove my point
