End game will be when Putin wipes them off the map with nuclear weapons.Monderegal » 24 Jan 2023, 10:56 am » wrote: ↑ Everyone knows that wars end. A perpetual state of conflict is not possible.

Ukraine already lost the war. Biden doesn't want to acknowledge this. Zelenskyy already knows it. Europe is somewhat indifferent.Monderegal » 24 Jan 2023, 10:56 am » wrote: ↑ Everyone knows that wars end. A perpetual state of conflict is not possible.

A country cannot murder ethnic minorities for a decade and regain their allegiance. The citizens in Eastern Ukraine will persue their freedom with or without Russia's assistance.
The notion that Putin will be emboldened to attack NATO countries if he isn't put to rout in 'Kraine is nonsense - fodder for the uneducated.Monderegal » 24 Jan 2023, 11:37 am » wrote: ↑ From what I can tell you're probably right. This is a story of trenches just like the First World War. Still, there are those who worry what will happen in Europe if Russia is allowed to annex territory.
The ethnic russians were in an active state of rebellion when putin invaded.Monderegal » 24 Jan 2023, 11:37 am » wrote: ↑ I've also heard stories of Ukrainians working for the Russians given their ethnic allegiances.

The difference between attacing ukraine and attacking poland is the difference between squishing a bug and hunting an elephant.
The ethnic russians were in an active state of rebellion when putin invaded.
They are being armed by and in many cases directed by the russian military.
They were holding petty grudges about ukranian nationalist militias raping their wives and killing their children.
For a decade. While the world press remained quiet. To foment a proxy war.
What a silly utterance. You know - or have no excuse for NOT knowing - that our deep state deposed the elected leader of Ukraine and installed an anti-Russia president. You know - or have no excuse for NOT knowing - that Obama's interference in Ukraine led to the annexation of Crimea. You know - or have no excuse for NOT knowing - that Ukraine CONTINUALLY violated the accords that followed by allowing nationalist paramilitaries to beleaguer ethnic russians in eastern ukraine.Monderegal » 24 Jan 2023, 12:05 pm » wrote: ↑ Well I agree with almost all that sentiment. EXCEPT the notion that the press was trying to foment a proxy war. The proxy war started when Putin invaded.

This is a perfect parallel to the sanctions of free speech and consciencious objection against those who questioned the rushed-to-market Trump vaccines.Mrkelly » 24 Jan 2023, 12:17 pm » wrote: ↑ I doubt if 3 people know what you are talking about

Just IMAGINE the silliness of pretending that not one, but MULTIPLE "vaccines" could be safely distributed without observing established protocls which ALREADY fail 25% of the time to protect public health, resulting in law suits and recalls. "Let's pass a law that says pharma can flout the law - what could possibly go wrong with that? And THEN, let's punish anyone who objects by taking away their jobs. Wait, wait - this gets better. Instead of having the usual suspects - REPUBLICANS - push this thing, let's task the LEFT with the job of licking pharma's taint."
Russia has an arsenal of nuclear weapons to defend against invasion of Russia militarily. Crimea is heavily Russian in ethnicity and Putin wanted a foothold in the Black Sea. It also offered a choking point in the Sea of Azov. The move was strategic, not one of necessity from my understanding unless you can prove otherwise.Cannonpointer » 24 Jan 2023, 12:16 pm » wrote: ↑ What a silly utterance.

Putin spent MONTHS trying to avoid invading ukraine. The western press reported only on what he was doing, and never on why he was doing it.
Your willful ignorance does not excuse the western media. It INDICTS the western media.
Answer to this: Do you at least understand that our actions left Putin no choice but to annex Crimea? Do you understand why Russia's national security REQUIRED that annexation?

Most of the Russians claiming to be persecuted were sent to Ukraine by Putin.
It is not essential that real estate be awarded just because grumpy people live on it.
One thing that Russia has a lot of is unoccupied territory.
Every day there are fewer Russians, the population is declining.
My take on this is that the war will contInue until Zelensky ,Biden and NATO depletes the weapons caches of their respective countries to such an extent that China is the only superpower left standing with a formidable and global military presence.Monderegal » 24 Jan 2023, 10:56 am » wrote: ↑ Everyone knows that wars end.

Sweet Jesus. Putin wanted a foothold? Russia OWNS that mother **** - that was put under threat by ukraine's democracy being cancelled by the american deep state.Monderegal » 24 Jan 2023, 12:52 pm » wrote: ↑ Russia has an arsenal of nuclear weapons to defend against invasion of Russia militarily.

Which ones, mouth? What ethnicities is it Russian policy to murder?Xavier_Onassis » 24 Jan 2023, 1:25 pm » wrote: ↑ Putin's Russia murders ethnic minorities ALL THE TIME.
So what's the threat to Putin in the Black Sea? Perhaps you can enlighten me with the naval stipulations of the sea and tell me why Putin seemed threatened militarily and needed Crimea. He barely has a navy as it is. I can see the regime wanting to keep its friends in power in Ukraine and make it a vassal state. Tell me that isn't reciprocal too for a man who wanted the US to free an international arms dealer for him. Two to tango. And yes, I'm not really versed in how the law of the sea is enforced, that is not my strong suit. I do know he wanted to own that strait imperially. I guess he thought some country might invade Russia from the sea when they have an arsenal of nuclear weapons.Cannonpointer » 24 Jan 2023, 5:41 pm » wrote: ↑ Sweet Jesus. Putin wanted a foothold?

For a mother **** who doesn't know ****, why are you starting a thread into your weak suit?
