Absolutely disgusting! US cluster munitions targets civilians in Sevastopol

[CowboyTed]

Sadly, largely so.




We used NATO as an excuse.

You clearly don't understand how NATO works...

It is a defence pact, one gets attacked, they all get attacked...

US got attacked and thus NATO kicked in...

This makes US have huge reach around the world defending US interests in the world..

Why is it you seem to think "making things right" is our quandary to solve?

IT ISN'T

I was quoting someone else.

Invaded "A" country and I've already explained how and why we would have done the same.

Noted, we have invaded, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, Iraq, etc, etc, etc.

Seems patriotic when we do it.

Afghanistan effectively shielded a org that attacked US and would not give him up.. Would have prefered it was handled a different way, a lot of Biden's proposals were worth listening too.

Syria, humanitarian crisis... Few boots on the ground to stabilize and stop Russia moving in..

Lybia, no invasion, took out anti aircraft and popcorn for the rest... Gaddaffi was guilty of killing Americans...

Iraq, Neo-Cons from the GOP wanted to control the world...

First, it’s necessary to be precise about the scale of the problem. Because corruption is hidden, estimating its scale is always problematic. According to the most widely cited source—the annual ranking of corruption by Transparency International (TI)—Ukraine has scored poorly for decades. As late as 2016, amid major anti-corruption reforms, TI’s survey still judged Ukraine to be as corrupt as Russia. The most recent TI index suggests that Ukraine has made some strides since then, but it still ranks 104th among 180 countries. Denmark is ranked first—meaning that it is perceived as cleanest—while Russia ranks 141st.

Yep have look at the source of the corruption...

That is why they wanted to join EU and the ECJ... They knew joining EU roots out corruption...

Russia were horrified by this because they were the main winner of corruption...

According to the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) in 2006, the main causes of corruption in Ukraine were a compromised justice system and an over-controlling non-transparent government combined with business-political ties to Russia and a weakened civil society. - 2006

Ukraine has been trying to get Russia off its back for decades

 

[CowboyTed]

LOL, if you say so.

That's how it works...

Your media bubble probably tells you something you want to hear

 

[OldFlame]

No, but suggesting a country that's been attacked is required to give up territory to the one doing the attacking suggest you sympathize with the attacker.

There was a time, when Republicans understood that appeasing bullies doesn't encourage peace but simply leads to more aggression.

Now though it seems that sympathizing with Russia is more important.

Like Israel? Somehow that's just 'different'...

 

[OldFlame]

Very few civilians have been killed by Russia. Now compare that to what Israel has done in Gaza with full US support.

And right on cue... Jew haters are so easy to spot these days..

Lol. Dumb as always.

 

[OldFlame]

America has NEVER left countries alone. At least not in terms of supplying weapons to allies. Which is what's happening now.

An ally that was attacked by a more powerful nation to boot. To suggest that supplying weapons to such an ally and that they use those weapons is somehow wrong is naive at best, collaboration with an enemy at worst.

Those ruling the US government needed to protect their money laundering capital and partner.

 

[OldFlame]

Lol. Dumb as always.

Yes, you are.

 

[pknopp]

It was none of their business.

Remember we wouldn't give up the Shah of Iran either.

Again, good for us, bad for others.

 

[gipper]

Yes, you are.

Says a genocide loving freak.

 

[gipper]

Putin started this and can go home anytime he wants...

He does need apologists like you.

Ukraine was attacked, this is there home, they can't retreat...

How bout Russians fuck off back home..

No he didn’t. The criminal US government started this.

GET INFORMED.

SHUT OFF FOX NEWS NOW!

 

[jc456]

Putin's "peace deal" -- Let us keep anything we've gotten, give us more, and we may stop.

His fans don't know that, I guess. Or maybe they like it.

not what he said at all.

 

[jc456]

Yes. The country that has invaded. Your guys.

Yet you would genocide all Jews given the chance, so stfu.

Idiot. Find one post of my many thousands that support what you claim.

Stop posting. You know nothing. Your mind is controlled by the state.

You think they should sit by and do nothing while bombs rain down on them, they should do nothing to retaliate when they're attacked, that says it all, you don't need to say anything else.
