    so here’s the real question. Is Biden going to allow the same thing obama did? Just give them weapons then allow them to fight a losing fight with no air support at all. Russia will destroy Ukraine with real help.

    Well what else could Biden do now but evacuate the people after his presser goof up of basically saying he would let Putin invade Ukraine just as long as he didn't take too much or stay too long? Now that Hunter isn't getting paid by them, Biden has no interest in Ukraine.

    "The head-scratching remarks came during the president's address on Wednesday to mark one year since taking office. During the speech, Biden stated that "it's one thing if [the invasion is] a minor incursion," which was interpreted by some as an insinuation that Russia might not be dealt with as harshly." https://www.newsweek.com/white-hous...s-control-damage-bidens-ukraine-gaffe-1671427

    A couple of days ago I was arguing with some poster about Biden's inability to showcase any kind of strength or decisive thought.

    And isn't it grand that Biden proves me correct on his very next public address?

    They need to just turn the teleprompter around so we can read the DNC messaging ourselves.

    People can complain all they want but Russia and China didn’t make any land grabs during Trump but under Obama and Biden they are. Biden tried to display strength at first then must have gotten slapped by whoever is the real president and backed off.

    Hmm...so Vladolf invades shortly....loses 500k+ of his drug addicted army....Ukraine on fire, guerilla war for next 10 yrs or more, humanitarian issues, quite possible spillover effect into neighboring Nato states,possible other incursions, hardened security threats from Baltic to Black Sea....and Putinka meets his Waterloo....since Russia will collapse, and Putler will be killed....well played Kremlin pimp:)).

    I suspect Putler will write another "essay" claiming....Poles,Balts, Finns,Swedes are some kinda ethnic kin also?:roflol:

    More like Russia takes Ukraine and tightens their grip on Europe’s throat by stopping all oil and gas supplies if they ever oppose them.

    Yeah pretty much. everybody knows that Democrats in charge a week as f*** globally.

    Biden showcased his strength in Afghanistan when he donated 80 billion in equipment to the Taliban while f****** over his allies by not telling him that he was going to skip in the middle of the night.

    And as an icing on top he goes and drone bombs some children!

    Yeah Putin is not scared of Biden. Nobody is.

    Trump was too much of a rogue to predict what his reaction would be had Putin tried this Ukraine nonsense while Trump was in charge.

    Which is why it didn't happen.

    I highly doubt that. It’s just another piece moved on the chess board that’s not in our favor and history will prove it.

    Taking over Ukraine in a coup, a nation where half the population is Russian and almost all speak Russian, was as much in Washington's favor as the illegal invasion of Iraq, Libya and Syria. They failed, that is unless you believe destroying other nations is in Washington's favor?


    Anyway the propaganda is getting to be ridiculous. I've heard one lie after another by 'honest Abe' Blinken, so how can anything coming out of our State Department be believed? According to him Russia's actions are aggressive, after all they've been moving their own troops inside of their own country. As for those Russian troops on Ukraine's borders, they're located 170 kilometers away.

    The only thing that would cause Russia to intervene in Ukraine, is if the Ukrainians were to provoke them by committing some kind of attack on the people in Donetsk and Lugansk. I think this will happen, otherwise why would the propaganda networks say that Russia is planning a false flag attack, unless it's to cover up a provocation and attack by Ukraine? Lavrov has said many times that they have no intentions of attacking Ukraine.

    One wonders if Kiev is so stupid as to do that, knowing there is no way to defeat Russia. But then again there are British agents in Ukraine, and they're experts at covert operations. They were the ones that helped the White Helmets in Syria commit the false flag chemical attacks. Anyway, the following is what I believe is Washington's latest plan, since they know it's impossible to defeat Russia militarily.

    Insurgents are now being trained in Germany. There are also jihadists being sent in to help Kiev, compliments of Turkey. If they can get Russia to invade then they might end up in a quagmire - which they believe will turn the Russan people against Putin and he'll be overthrown.

    It will fail like everything else Washington dreams up. All it will accomplish in the end is the destruction of Europe - which might be their real intent. Who knows?

    Where does everyone in Ukraine speak Russki...Jenny?

    If you see Kharkiv...you'll see nothing but Ukranian flags and Ukranian being spoken Jenny-veve.

    No one is interested in some Russian world...just like in DPR....

    And what land grabs has Russia and China made? The one's in 'honest Abe' Blinken's imagination? If you're thinking of Crimea, the only one who invaded Crimea was Ukraine in 1995.

    After Nuland installed her fascist government in Kiev, the Crimeans demanded their freedom and asked the Russian soldiers there to protect them as they held a referendum. They voted to be with Russia as protection from another invasion from Ukraine.

    As for the Ukranian soldiers there, well they decided to join the Russian army, the pay was higher.:roflol:

    Let's hope so. Sending troops or air support is totally out of the question.

    Nuland and the other neo cons made the mess in Ukraine, so maybe we should just tell them we're not going destroy anymore nations, just because they have an obsession with Vladimir Putin for freeing Russia from their criminal Russian cohorts.

    The way I see it, the nation that holds the key here is Germany. Are they willing to destroy their economy for a bunch of neo con' Trotsky ideologues? Germany did stop Estonia from sending German arms to the Kiev junta - so let's see if they have the courage to stand up to Soros and his Washington 'elites'?

    The real 'mess' with the Ukraine was the ten million or so people murdered by Russia when
    they didn't want to be under Russian rule. The study of this was shut down by Putin a few
    weeks back.
    The 'mess' from the Russian POV is that Ukraine wants to be a part of Europe and the West.
    Can't understand why.
    Ukraine could be like Saklin Island where Russians are told they can't have tarmac, sealed
    roads or concrete walkways 'because these will sink into the mud.' And lo, some Americans
    there built this brightly lit, fully sealed facility for the Russias to behold.


    Every east European nation HAS THE RIGHT TO BE A PART OF NATO SHOULD IT WISH.
    And as Putin put it two months back about Russian buildup - 'Every sovereign nation has the
    right to do what it likes within its own borders.'
    Dito for Ukraine, Finland, Sweden.....

    ps I just LOVE how the Ukraine-Crimea thing was just 'volunteers' having a weekend off from
    the Russian army - Buk missiles and all. Seems a typical corruption story had these volunteers
    supplies stolen. The resultant court case in Russia exposed the 'volunteers' to be army regulars
    under Putin's orders. You obviously would be surprised by that - we are not.

    Biden’s behavior long ago passed from embarrassing to dangerous. We can see that all around us. Even CNN seems to be coming around to this realization. Will he do something stupid in Ukraine, precipitating a crisis with Vladimir Putin? Barack Obama once warned, “underestimate Joe’s ability to f— things up.”

    NATO only grants membership by unanimous consent of its member nations. Its 'Open Door' policy is not so open. France and Germany in particular have voiced opposition to allowing Ukraine to join.
