Lol so russia is willing to risk mutual destruction. Wonder if the US will call their bluff. I dont see this ending well, if russia launches a single warhead, I don't think the US is going to negotiate, it is going to be full on assault with zero mercy.
I expect the US has a IF playbook planned out, considering they are on level 3, so I can only assume they have already mobilised, carriers and bombers, ect.

Wish someone will call their bluff......

Firing a nuke would immediately seal Russia's fate. In today's age there is no tactical, nor strategical use to firing of nukes other than mutual destruction.

So it wouldn't be one warhead, it would probably be all the warheads at once.

it can only be believed once Belarusian troops are within the Ukrainian domain. Chechnya is a Russian constituent republic, and Kadyrovtsy volunteers and soldiers are there to serve Russia. Putin is playing the pro-Russian narrative in Ukraine, you know, he is there is to cleanse neo-Nazism.
I snipped the rest out because I wanted to ask about the part in bold

If he is playing the narrative as you put it, then what is the actual intent? In your opinion, why has Russia invaded Ukraine?

So let me get this right, Ukraine has neo-Nazis in govt, Ukraine being the only country on the planet besides Israel, with a Jewish head of State.
Ok, so Zelensky is part of a centrist party called "Servant of the People".


I went to check the Ukrainian parliament's current setup.
ATM, no party in Parliament matches the "neo-Nazi" bill.

Also btw, Zelensky's party holds the majority in Parliament.

The multilateral (not just the US) intervention in Libya had my full support. After the Arab Springs Gaddafi was threatening to go door to door and hunt down and kill every single person in Libya who took part in protests.
I snipped out the rest here, can you cite the source of this information?

To my understanding, there was a lot of debate around this hence the numerous people who had spoke out against the military action that was undertaken against Libya at the time.

I am sure there is some propaganda to his rhetoric somewhere online. Just saying.

Asking the western media to be objective around Russia or China is about the same as asking corrupt officials in the ANC to investigate themselves.

South Africa has scrambled to patch up relations with Russia after International Relations and Cooperation Minister Naledi Pandor issued an unusually strong statement calling on Russia to withdraw from Ukraine.

President Cyril Ramaphosa was reported by the Sunday Times to be unhappy with the statement because he felt it contradicted South Africa’s policy.

Whoops :ROFL: ...

On Sunday, Ramaphosa indirectly intervened to reassure Russia that South Africa was on its side. Ramaphosa’s acting spokesperson, Tyrone Seale, told Daily Maverick that Minister in the Presidency Mondli Gungubele had resolved the issue when he was asked about it at a briefing of the Cabinet security cluster on Sunday.

:mad:

:rolleyes: I said I agree with some of what he says but there's no reason to start a war over where people die over it.

Is it that difficult?
Gotcha and agree. Let’s just acknowledge the fact that this war could have been avoided if both parties had the inclination to come to an agreement at the table.

Well to be fair, I had not worded that as I had wanted, see my edit to the cite part.

****in hell, just when you thought the ANC would get some sense... Good on Pandor for having some sense anyway.

But yeah, as much as I'd love to see our gov **** over the Russians. It won't happen... The Russians have their hands on the ANC's balls (financially and diplomatically). Rama seems eager to suck off Putin...

On Sunday, Ramaphosa indirectly intervened to reassure Russia that South Africa was on its side.
Thx Ramaphosa, instead of going to Parliament to get a vote on if we should **** Russia over or not, you "indirectly intervene". VIVA ANC VIVA

This is a obtuse line to pursue, every country in the world probably has Nazi-types. The Ukrainian president is Jewish, surprised you haven't made a Jewish argument for everything. Had to pick something I guess.
No one cares about him being a Jew except the people that hate Putin on principle funny enough.... for some strange reason they keep bringing it up.

As an aside, aren't we all glad England hasn't decided to reclaim it's Empire from years ago..
Yet.

Bring what up? That the Ukrainian President is a jew? Cause it kinda defeats Putin's statement of cleansing the gov of "neo-Nazis" as one of his many justifications for his invasion. Since if that were true, Zelensky wouldn't even be president nor would his party have a majority in Parliament.

So she is basically comitting treason "on behalf of belarussians" and instagating civil war..... yes, this is gonna be lots of fun if she gains traction.
Yeah, cause the dictatorship of Lukashenko is the best thing ever for Belarus...

The ANC really are the pits aren't they (trying to start this week off the better foot by not calling them a bunch of incompetent, inept, ass-kissing and corrupt politicians)...
They are split between affinities, what we are seeing is not very surprising at all.

What exactly technically speaking prevents a Jew from being a Nazi?
