    Why are we defending Ukraine? They are not NATO. They were part of the USSR for a long time and posed no threat. What vital national interest are we protecting in Ukraine? We did great without them for a long, long time. What changed? We are depleting our military assets, our national treasure... for what?

    well....that's a lot of words......is this what you've been told to say or is it something you think is real?

    It is reality/
    I always say only what I myself think is true. Of course, I read many articles on the Russian Internet. I always have my own point of view on all questions. I argued with communists earlier, I argue with traitors today. I try not to read the messages of Ukrainian authors, because they lie without exception.

    I have two original theories - the theory of the relationship between conflict and control and the theory of personality types that I invented.

    well that's not quite what I asked. It's just a simple question really, is that something you think is real?

    The Inconvenient Painful Truth.

    At this point, because of Putin's decision to invade Ukraine, the Russian military and Russia will only survive if Joe Biden decides to allow it.

    IMO, your faith will be tested very soon.

    IOW, you are unable to dispute anything from my post to you.

    The US has a long history of turning our military bases over to allies when asked to do so. The Taliban is not an ally of the US. Think.

    "t was a long time ago and it's not true under the Stalinist totalitarian regime, which executed not only Poles, but also millions of Russian people. The Russian Federation under Yeltsin pleaded guilty and asked for forgiveness at Poland, this is enough." VS

    Russia just can't stop repeating its mistakes. Alas.

    We don't give a damn on Baden. We can destroy America with Biden with help of nuclear weapons at any time and we will make Biden reckon with us. Biden's policy in Ukraine is a bluff of feeble-minded old man.

    You don't have to tell us fairy tales. The presence of military bases in any country is a sign that this country is a sphere of influence or a colony of the United States. Never Americans leave the country or abandon from their bases voluntarily. Only an armed uprising of the local population or a war by another state, for example, a war with Russia, forces of the Americans to leave the country and leave their bases. The Americans withdrew from Afghanistan after losing of the war to Taliban insurgents. The Americans will leave Ukraine soon because the Americans will lose the war to Russia soon. The Americans will soon withdraw from Syria because the Americans will soon lose the war to the Syrian army. Politics is based on military strength, on the right of the strong, and reasoning about justice and voluntary submission is Anderson's fairy tales. Об праве сильного в политике писал Никколо Макиавелли, об этом смотрите параграф в моём учебнике.

    Even Don Quixote knew that he would need the helmet of Mambrino to achieve his impossible dream. Putin and his apparatchiks are now fully exposed and vulnerable.
    The Ukrainian military with virtually no air or sea power has managed to push the Russian military into a box canyon with nothing more than spare military surplus from the US and NATO. Putin and his faithful followers better wake up smell the coffee.

    Do you think Russian intelligence even knows for sure where Joe Biden is located at any given time? ;-)

    Poles, Lithuanians, Latvians and Estonians should not be offended by Russia. Russia acts with a position of strong. Russia shared spheres of influence with Germany without asking the permission of these small states. The moral is that you don't have to be small and weak. And the loser, small and weak, let them cry and complain about fate.Niccolo Machiavelli wrote about the right of the strong in politics, see the paragraph in my textbook about this.

    You have been misinformed. The US has always complied with every request from an ally to turn over military bases.
    Google: Philippines, "Subic Bay" for a typical example. We left -- and now they want us back. :)

    Putin might try offering to give the Russian naval base at Sebastopol to the US. That might be a good first step toward peace - and Russia isn't using it anymore. Think positive! :)

    The Ukrainian army advanced near Kharkov and Kherson with the help of American weapons and Polish mercenaries. This offensive ran out of steam today. The Ukrainian army spent all its reserves. Russian troops built powerful lines of defense. Chaos reigns in the rear of the Ukrainian army. There is no electricity, trains do not run. The Ukrainian population suffers due to the lack of electricity, water, heat supply and fuel. Demonstrations have already begun against power outages. All await the Russian offensive with the help of 318,000 mobilized soldiers.
    No one needs Biden, this helpless old man decides nothing.

    Yes, Vashinsky (IOW Stalin) made it clear that small nations have no rights. Putin clearly embraces that doctrine.
    Hence the now united opposition to Russia's genocidal aggression in Ukraine.

    Russia only escaped punishment for its alliance with Nazi Germany to invade Poland and start WW II because the Allies needed the Russian military to defeat the Axis. That was a lucky break that Putin has squandered for less than nothing.

    I will try without cursing. You will get ears from a dead donkey, not Sevastopol.

    We have pressed of the Poles in the past and we will pressure of the Poles in the future and NATO willn't help them. And the Poles will cry again: "Poland has not died yet!" And no one can punish Russia.

    Then Russian troops and tanks should be parading through the streets of Kyiv within 48 hours just like the last time Russian made similar predictions on 24 February. Right? ;-)

    Russia does not need Sebastopol and will not miss it.

    Russians have always been gluttons for punishment. Punishment usually received from or through the absurd machinations of its worst incompetent leaders. The first step for Russian reform and recovery would be to create a government that cannot work to exterminate its own population or that of any other nation. Baby steps. :)

    Simple! The USA did not exist yet in 1108. But neither did Moskhailshchyna. Yet us Americans are honest and we do not Make Up Schist claiming we did.
