  1. He didn't "cancel" the book deal. He was forced to cancel as his crowdfunding campaign could not get a platform, and he realized that publishing the book could also complicate his future cooperation with Max Popenker. Which due to recent events is probably not going to happen anyway.

  2. The Taliban didn't exist as a fighting force then. They were introduced by Pakistani intelligence after the Mujaheddin drove the Soviets out.

  4.  @yeetdeets  I'm pretty sure Azov chose the symbolism for the same exact reason people at Wagner chose the symbolism.

  6. Taliban higher ups in contact with US intelligence leaked his location multiple times so he could get shwacked without witnesses and without the Taliban being blamed. The US did nothing. Mattis also had Marines ready to cut off OBL's escape at Tora Bora and was told to stay put. Draw your own conclusions.

  7. Are the wolfsangel and black sun also Indo-European symbols?

  8.  @nicolaspeigne1429  Kinda? You're implying that the Mujaheddin, Taliban and Al Qaeda are all the same thing. We funded and trained the Mujaheddin, we had some diplomatic ties with the Taliban, and former Mujaheddin who got pissed off at Israel and the Saudis attacked the US.

  9. The Taliban were introduced by ISI (which was arguably CIA controlled) to pacify and stabilize Afghanistan. This happened after the Mujaheddin drove the Soviets out.

  10.  @bigstreetguns6619  I've seen the video of them tying a person to a cross and starting a fire. It's not that I want to see more, but that footage could have been filmed by literally anyone and the guy on the cross could have been a stuntman.

  11. In the same way that the US was right about Saddam's WMDs. You take something real and blow it out of proportion. Saddam had a stockpile of chemical weapons. Mostly abandoned, expired ones that were even leaking because they dated back to the Iraq-Iran war, and weren't part of a program to restart chemical weapons manufacturing. Jesus it's like this is the first information war for some of you people.

  12.  @jaydensavage689  A person with "bad" beliefs doing a good thing is not on the same level as a person with "good" beliefs doing bad things. This isn't difficult to reconcile.

  13. Why does it need it? Neither side is making great use of air assets due to mutual fear of SAMs. Russian aircraft resort to flying low, which gets them clapped out by MANPADS.

  14.  @searose6192  Wikipedia states 13,000 people were killed on both sides. In total. So how have been 14k civilians alone been killed? How much military deaths, then?

  15.  @themetalone7739  "Jihadists, for example, cannot be reasoned with" - But they can reason with others. And when you bomb those others, they gain arguments to persuade people to join them. Interventionism sounds nice - doesn't work either. It has a terrible track record.

  16. a @davoodoo8042  1) The military is essentially what legitimizes a government. A government without military (and there are a few in the world) is at the mercy of others. 2) Denial of sovereignty. 3) Recognition that ethnic Russians can just carve up a foreign country for themselves. 4) Sure. Except for number 4, all of those demands essentially mean "you don't exist, you do what I tell you, and I'll come beat you whenever you don't let my people encroach into your territory". This is tyranny by proxy, and direct tyranny if you refuse to comply.

  17.  @davoodoo8042  What a ridiculous excuse. Is South Korea demilitarized? No, there's a DMZ between North and South. Imagine Kim asked for a demilitarized South Korea. Everyone would tell him to go pound sand. 1) If they didn't ask it in Georgia, they have to stop asking for it now. 2) If I get robbed I am installing an alarm. Sounds fair. So Ukraine can get invaded but not ask for protection? The demand for "neutrality" is a demand to remain weak and unable to ask for more than missiles and finger wagging. 3) I'm not touching Yugoslavia with a 10ft pole. Instead of saying two wrongs make a "who cares?" recognize the insanity of the premise. Also, the UK is Russia here. Ukraine is the US and it's fighting back.

  18.  @davoodoo8042  1. Georgia isn't demilitarized. 2. I'm failing to show what? The will to join a mutual defense agreement is based on protection. What is there to demonstrate? Being invaded is precisely how a country becomes fearful and considers the need for stronger protections. There's no speculation. Based on nothing? Someone who has their house broken into will invest in security. Period. You want the robber to threaten victims to not get new locks? Nonsense. 3. Ukraine cut themselves off from Crimea after it was seized by the Russian military, and a referendum asked the population if they wanted independence according to the 1992 constitution or be part of Russia. Independence would lead them to be a failed state so they were essentially coerced. There's also evidence of widespread fraud. I don't see what the point of bringing this up is. Severing one's limb is terrible. But if you have to do it to save yourself after that limb got crushed, it's understandable. You're being extremely one-sided by picking apart everything Ukraine did, and refusing to acknowledge Russian wrongdoings. Want to check the facts? How about the facts regarding the forced displacements during the Soviet times, which were meant to stop an Ukrainian identity from becoming counter-revolutionary? Purposeful ethnic displacement was a tool of the Soviets that has now been used by the Russian Federation. All this conflict is based on Soviets using Russian people to undermine Ukrainian people in the past, now being taken advantage by post-Soviet governments to go back on their recognition of Ukraine's borders.

  20.  @lukeneill1568  The war was essentially unwinnable for Germany's side. They'd never be done with the Soviets.

  21.  @HauntingSpectre  Does the Minsk accord actually ban Ukraine from joining NATO? From what I'm reading it's mostly about Ukraine retaining the border but giving the separatist regions autonomy.

  22.  @HauntingSpectre  That's a lot of words to not point me to where in the Minsk agreements (which fell apart anyway) it says Ukraine can't join NATO.

  25.  @xntumrfo9ivrnwf  Okay, so they picked the Black Sun, wolfsangel and swastika as their symbols. Why are they picking all the symbols that were "stolen" already? If they were wearing toothbrush mustaches you'd be saying they're big Charlie Chaplin fans.

  26. Exploding a biolab doesn't neutralize whatever is held inside.

  27. How the hell was proven true? This is the clear tactic of weaving a lie through facts. They don't seem to give a shit about the labs. You really think this war is over WMDs? Makes about as much sense as the Iraq lies.

  28. They have swastikas, wolfsangels and black suns. Are you going to assume three symbols have all these multiple meanings?

  29. Oliver Stone is a literal Putin shill, though. He's been on RT multiple times.

  30.  Paul Price  Did Ross Kemp get interviews with Putin and occasional invitations to be interviewed at RT? Genuine question.

  32.  @michaelshattuck2949  I don't understand what game of telephone we've been playing. The biolabs thing was a SUPER SEKRIT military operation and the war was just a cover. I've also seen people argue that the war is a cover for Putin to shut down a human trafficking operation. If Putin started a war over WMDs, he'd have straight up said it rather than reach for the de-nazification excuse. So the existence of the labs - which was known to anyone who did any amount of research as there's plenty of public information - doesn't confirm that the SUPER SEKRIT war to end NATO WMD programs is real. Yes, it's propaganda. There's western glowies monitoring alt media mentions of the biolabs, and they noticed the increase when the Chinese foreign ministry mentioned them. Also, the existence of Azov was also publicized to a great extent. Do I have access to more information than the average person or does everyone have the memory of a goldfish?

  33.  @MrReddevil420  There isn't a ban. Last I heard some people online tried to get someone fired from a fire department for having it. Don't remember if it was successful but it's happened once, hardly a ban.

  34.  @TuorTheBlessedOfUlmo  "idolise the state of isreal as a perfect ethno state" - you mean like the plans that mid-century Germany had to send their undesirables to Palestine? Yeah, why would a Nazi admire Israel? Really activates the almonds.

  35. Yeah, but they have more than one mid-century German symbol. At one point it stops being coincidence.
