Comments by "William Davis" (@williamdavis9562) on "NBC News" channel.

  1. Are these networks aware of how they're viewed by the public? Historians are looking to look back at this period 100s of years from now in utter confusion. Wondering how this level of lunacy and insanity actually happened.
    166
  2. Our mainstream media is like a paid off referee. lol

  3.  @DisneyCruiseShip  So says the person who still doesn't know who drags us into all these meaningless wars.
    25
  4.  @sandracasso8034  Why would Putin bother, he already got everything he wanted because Biden let Putin have his pipelines to Europe.
    24
  5. I wonder if the mainstream media ever saw military action they didn't like. Mr. Biden if you want to protect US servicemen in that region, bring them home.
    18
  6. As soon as Biden got elected most rational people could have seen this coming a mile away. I'm shocked it took this long. I wonder which nation we're going to push for regime change in next?

  7. A lot of arguments can be made against this. But "The Supreme Court dramatically overreaching it's authority" is not one of them. They've actually taken their authority away on the topic. Can people this dumb really be in positions of power in this country? Where they can't even make an argument that makes sense? Again there are a lot of rational ways to debate against this ruling by the Supreme Court. But leave it to our leaders that even on a topic where they're in the right, they'll take the most insane and irrational route to debate.

  8.  @jackelstone1502  Cargo ships supplying a genocidal regime? Yes, absolutely.
    13
  9.  @player24361  This isn't about "asking" people to get vaccinated. This is about forcing them to.
    13
  10. @Mike Blank, it's sad if you think about it. Imagine someone being backed into that kind of corner where that's all they have to resort to, to defend themselves.
    11
  11.  @sandracasso8034  I'd imagine this applies to a lot of people but it doesn't apply to everyone. There are more than enough people who "join to serve." I'd imagine that number goes down every year since the Iraq war. They're slowly realizing they're only serving defense contractors and multinational corporations. Destroying nations is a big business.
    11
  12. It's interesting how the media will always protect all these "we should always be at war with someone, anyone" types.
    11
  13. @bdfhvxz. Not just in Nato but holds the second largest military in Nato.
    10
  14. @Jack Stanfield, millions of people are pushed out of their homes and thrown into an open air prison which is about 3 times bigger than my backyard. Mainstream media is like "aww poor Israel why are people in Gaza so mean to them."
    10
  15. @MRfromohio. Are you referring to the 7,000 Palestinian hostages Israel has been illegally holding for about a decade? The UN tried to pass a resolution on that years ago but the state department blocked it from going to vote.
    10
  16.  @nirmalah2451 except one difference. What that guy is saying is demonstrably true.
    9
  17.  @dedswift  You have to understand the context. The zionists came up with the phrase river to the sea in the 1950s. For them it actually meant the mass slaughter of different ethnic groups between the river and the sea. So it makes sense they'd simply assume everyone else is as psycho as them. To us random Americas, well we said from sea to shining sea years ago. And that basically meant the complete annihilation of the native Indians. So again it makes sense for us to assume that is what everyone else means by such statements. I guess psychos need to realize not everyone is a psycho.
    8
  18.  @dahleno2014  You might want to learn something called context before jumping in and making a fool of yourself.
    7
  19.  @JonJon-bx1ww  It means that the territory from the river to the sea was theirs and they want the ability to return to it. Btw that phrase was invented by the Likud party in the 1950s. They've been saying it for over 70 years. How come when they said it no one made a stink over it? Not to mention the fact they actually wanted it to mean the mass slaughter of people who weren't the "right" ethnicity. They were quite open about it as well with their actions. So you tell me.
    7
  20.  @alexanderchambord9850 did one have to travel to Berlin in the early 1940s to be able to say genocide is wrong. Think about how ridiculous your statement is
    6
  21.  @JohnD-m4j  how exactly is Israel an “honorable” ally. Can you please point to nato conflicts in which Israel sent troops. Just one? They don’t become honorable allies just because you decide to call them that. Your statement is not only false but demonstrably false. Honorable ally 😂
    6
  22.  @crispinfornoff206  You also strike me as the kind of person who thinks apartheid and concentration camps are cool.
    6
  23.  @crispinfornoff206  Your cognitive dissonance is so strong you literally saying no matter what any says, or what facts are laid you won't change your mind. But I guess to sit around cheering on apartheid, concentration camps, brutality and genocide on a scale not seen since ww2, you'd have to delve into cognitive dissonance to keep that stance no? I mean honestly, who can look in the mirror and admit they're evil? Then you talk about struggling with ethnic judgements, talk about projection.
    6
  24.  @Waverox  You do realize a genocide is actually going on right now don't you?
    6
  25.  @sps3r654  Trump was unstable and was going to take us to war right? Why is it that since my childhood Trump has been the only elected official to not invade and occupy some random country? That's unhinged right? Makes sense if you're rooting for the "we always need a war" crowd. Fact of the matter is these Milly type characters wanted him out because they couldn't get the pet wars they're used to every 4 years.
    5
  26. The conversation was probably the same as anyone who is against this protest. Alec Baldwin: Apartheid and concentration camps are awesome, how dare you protest against it. Protestor: You sound insane.
    5
  27.  @morehn  South Africa was an independent state which had Apartheid as well. Do you even know what Apartheid means? The state apparatus is what is used to enforce the Apartheid rules.
    4
  28. I remember in my younger years loving meet the press. The hard hitting news show which would give us the low down on what is going on. Now it's a shadow of it's former self pushing off the shelf talking points like some underpaid shill. This is sad.
    4
  29.  @Razzmatazz99  you both have zero idea what in the world you’re talking about
    4
  30. You have no idea how nato works do you ? lol Remove a nato country for calling out genocide by a non nato regime? Yea makes a lot of sense
    4
  31. @Alex Laverick, according to that logic the most recent Supreme Court Justice would have to be held to account as well. Do you really believe she has "no idea what a woman is."
    4
  32. I haven't met many and I live in a blue state. Truly confusing.
    4
  33.  @giannidigianni4173  well, that is actually consistent. They did that to stop an ongoing genocide.
    4
  34. @Williamhornabrook8081. That country has been authoritarian to a certain degree since it's foundation. The country has however been staunchly secular but I don't exactly see how that has changed at all. People keep spouting rhetoric like it's turning into a theocracy but would be hard pressed to name one secular law which has been taken off the books in favor of a religious law. It's cheap rhetoric which folds like origami when put under the microscope of facts and reality. It's an interesting election and I really don't care who wins. But what does bother me is completely and utterly false information being spread about both the candidates.
    4
  35. I'm fairly sure it didn't exist there to begin with. Regardless of which one of these guys win fascism won't be in play.
    4
  36. @Mardamek, Our media is nothing short of a mouthpiece for those in power. Cheerleaders if you will and at times hitmen when they need to be. You can't have a functioning democracy with media like this.
    3
  37.  @mr.brightside6576  The one time when it actually makes sense to protest you call the protestors ignorant? So you think apartheid, concentration camps and genocide are good things? If so you're calling those people ignorant? lol
    3
  38.  Abe Sapien  I think you're referring to that group we indirectly armed to go finish Assad off no? Also if there was another fanatical religious group growing you can be sure our intelligence community would certainly find a way to help them move forward so we'll again have a never ending excuse to forever stay in that region. Lets also not forget. Iraq and Syria were pretty stable places until we arrived. Never ending wars are pretty profitable I'd imagine, especially when the man in charge are from the companies making all the profits. The OP's comment was spot on.
    3
  39.  @romancultist6089  Interesting point Roman. Is it your contention Iraq, Libya and Syria were less stable and worse off before the interventions? If so, I have some pacific ocean front property in Arkansas I'd like to sell you.
    3
  40. Third world country bro. It's sad to see stuff like this happen.
    3
  41. So you're going to actually try to get us to believe that god is on the side of apartheid, concentration camps, mass murder, ethnic cleansing, brutality the world hasn't seen since WW2 and outright evil? Good luck selling that. Although I'd imagine the devil is proud of you for slandering god like this.
    2
  42.  @ethicsfirst3388  Yea because one day they completely lost their minds and started attacking people right? lol At what point did people decide to throw logic and reason out of the window for cheap illogical talking points?
    2
  43.  @amitkenan3878  didn’t the Armenians just get their justice a few years ago from Azerbaijan. Who enforced un resolutions by forcing the Armenian militia groups to leave property it was illegally occupying?
    2
  44. @romcomfan You working for the defense contractors? Use more equipment so we can sell you war, we don't care who you use it on.
    2
  45. Why are Gavin and DeSantis even being covered? Both are heavy establishment characters that have been rejected by the public. No one is going to vote either of these tools into the big office.
    2
  46.  @tvdinner325  Bot would be saying the opposite.
    2
  47.  Mz Jazzy 4areason 2.0  That's a fantastic question but I'm not sure it has anything to do with the OP's statement. Even if you believe it was a bad idea to occupy that nation it still doesn't change the fact that we need to protect those people who helped protected our troops. We can endlessly debate the wisdom in invading Afghanistan, pro invasion people would have an extremely difficult time making their case at this point considering how everything turned out. But again, this has nothing to do with the OP's point of getting these people out of there.
    2
  48.  @kansasthunderman1  Saudi Arabia and Israel that "should be willing" to take them in? Why exactly is that? You literally picked the two nations on this planet least likely to take anyone in. lol Saudi Arabia for example wouldn't even take in a starving 10 year old kid fleeing Syria.
    2
  49. I'd imagine it went down like this. Alec Baldwin: Apartheid and concentration camps are cool, why are you guys protesting against it. Protestor: You're insane.
    2
  50.  @uhadme  Nothing will surprise me after I saw the most insane thing a few years ago. Trump says "We're pulling out of Syria." Then John Bolton comes out and says "No we're not." Then the Pentagon also comes out and says they're not pulling out. Made me wonder, if not our elected leaders who exactly is in charge? I was also shocked that there wasn't an insane amount of outrage when this happened. Death of democracy anyone?

  51. @Christopher Pollard, Great post. It seems these people did much more for our flag than most of us have or will ever do.
    2
  52.  @bigdoge6602  How are you going to find a job when the government has the power to tell all the other employers that they can't employ you without the shot? Logic much? lol
    2
  53.  @player24361  Last I checked I don't remember the government telling private institutions they can't hire people without shots. It appears Mr. Sanchez you can't wrap your head around this precedent of government power. It's not surprising.
    2
  54. No one cares about events from over 100 years ago my man.
    2
  55.  @reyosegueda6395  People are starting to notice the obvious. The mainstream media isn't interested in telling anything the truth about anything. They have a narrative and they will jam that narrative down our throats till we believe it.
    2
  56. Yup, facts are facts
    2
  57. @gailcarey3597. I don't remember seeing Biden and Netanyahu in this video. What are you talking about?
    2
  58. @Acaydia, There is no dispute in the black sea as the maritime borders between all Black Sea states aren't being disputed aside from Ukraine and Russia. As far as the Kurds, it seems like less than 5% of their population wants their own state (according to their voting patterns) so that really isn't that big an issue either.
    2
  59. So one insane mass murder gets replaced with another? Yea, lets celebrate woohoo.
    2
  60. Imagine a dictator losing the mid term elections a few years ago lol Last I checked dictators don't lose elections. Less rhetoric more substance please.

  61. @TheBrutalation. I'm an American who lived in Turkey for years due to work, I speak both languages. The subs are accurate.

  62. Meanwhile the government is actually taking over, slowly lol
    2
  63.  @arthurla509  Before ww1 it was Ottoman territory. Before that it was Persian territory, before that it was Russian empire territory, before that it was Mongol territory, before that it was Timurid territory, before that it was Byzantine territory. You'd have to literally go back like 2000 years to when it was Armenian territory. That is a pretty damned loose claim to a piece of land to use as an excuse to invade another country and ethnically cleanse 800,000 of their civilians like the Armenians did to the Azeris in the 1990s. THis is insanity.
    1
  64.  @donutman3398  Obviously because pushing millions of people into an open air prison wouldn't in any way, shape or form cause people to react. Right.....
    1
  65.  @danielkurtz3045  Are you implying they aren't?
    1
  66.  @danielkurtz3045  Let me kick a million people out of their homes and lock them all in my backyard. Then I can act surprised if they're angry. That's essentially the argument you're making right now. I'd imagine you aren't nearly stupid enough to not realize the insanity in your argument. Yet you still make it for what ever misguided you have. God help you.
    1
  67.  @donutman3398  You do realize what the definition of a prison is right? It's when you're confined against your own will and you're kept somewhere by force. So imagine imprisoning 3 million people in a small strip of land about 3 times bigger than my back yard and acting shocked that they're angry. You'd have better luck selling ice cubes to an Eskimo than making someone listen to the insane argument you're making.
    1
  68.  @donutman3398  Considering the rockets are coming from the Gaza, it's pretty relevant what is happening on this "small strip of land." You also do realize well over 2 million people are crammed into that open air prison? Again what exact does any rational person expect to happen when you throw that many civilians into an open air prison? That they'll just be content being locked into such a small area like cattle? Do you truly believe it's okay to treat people like cattle because you may or may not have an issue with their ethnicity?
    1
  69. You expect this fake news channel to give an honest accounting of anything ever? lol

  70.  @AIIen.alledgedly2  I'm not sure if it's selfish to ask a nation looking to join a defense organization to stop funding armed groups which are attacking a member of that organization.

  71. @John B, the mafia rarely likes to give up "turf"
    1
  72.  @keepitreal888-gnc  Really? So you're saying that stealing people's homes, slaughtering their children and then stuffing them into the world's only concentration camp is just fine. It is only a problem when they resist? You do realize these demonstrably false talking points don't work anymore right? You might as well try to convince us men can get pregnant.
    1
  73.  @pizzabagerenmujaffa8123  No, he wasn't doing that. He was essentially telling the crowd "apartheid and concentration camps are awesome, especially the "final solution" to the people in the concentration camp. We haven't seen something like that since WW2. How dare you protest against it" I'd call that insane, not brave. Perhaps more insane than your comment which is so detached from reality that it is terrifying radicalized extremists like you are out there.
    1
  74.  @WaferBrik  Easier for the IDF with weapons to murder unarmed women and children right?
    1
  75. @Edwardpi9852. You believe a media that crafts false narratives about everything and even tries to convince us that men can get pregnant have the ability to not craft a false narrative on this issue as well? You expect too much bro lol
    1
  76. @Kandie808. UN had a resolution on the table where Hamas will release their hostages and Israel release the 7,000 Palestinian hostages they've been illegally holding for decades. Obviously our state department made sure that never got to the floor for a vote. So yea, both sides should release their hostages but we all know Israel will not under any circumstance release their hostages. They'd rather just keep slaughtering civilians.
    1
  77.  @JohnD-m4j  I suggest you do some research before supporting a genocidal apartheid regime like Israel
    1
  78. Both these nations are growing and feeling more confident. So it makes sense that they refuse to act like vassal states taking orders which obviously upsets the globalists.
    1
  79. The Israeli defense forces of the 1970s and the Israeli defense forces of today seem like two completely different things. How exactly were a bunch of people sitting in a concentration camp with primitive weapons and barely any shoes to wear bust into Israel so easily and penetrate so deep?
    1
  80. Absolutely not true. You might want to actually check to se what is happening in other countries for a change. Israel is headed into territory where they might be the most isolated pariah state on the international stage in the modern era. Not to mention they're dragging us into that same gutter with them.
    1
  81.  @ProHuman-s3k  can you find a contract or treaty that actually has lasting legal weight behind it? Not one which was so ridiculous it was ripped up and made way for a new legally binding one
    1
  82. @Aroundandround, You seem to have an odd definition of close friendship. You mean he has a close relationship with the guy who's tanks he's helping blow up by sending high tech military equipment to a nation his friend is at war with? Yea bro, nice analysis lol
    1
  83. @Ericvansikcle4305. If what you're saying were true, he wouldnt' have lost the midterm election a few years ago which completely and utterly embarrassed his party and his rule. They lost control of all the large municipalities. If he had a way to overturn election results, he would have done it there. Fact of the matter is that country's voting system is pretty iron clad not to mention the hordes of international election monitoring officials there to check for irregularities. Their elections are a lot more iron clad than ours. Not to mention their insane voter turnout.
    1
  84. @skaracaesar4789 People have been asking the Apartheid regime of Israel this question for decades. So far their answer has been "yes"
    1
  85.  @morehn  The people who lived through the Apartheid who are now leaders of South Africa know what Apartheid is better than both of us. They say what Israel has is an Apartheid state. They also say it is worse than what they went through. Slaves also stopped revolting when they got chained up after their shift. Using that argument to claim they should still be slaves is outright insanity. Your argument is a losing proposition. This is the age of the internet and you can't spout nonsense which is simply not true and expect people to believe it. That isn't going to fly anymore. You can continue to support ethnic cleansing and apartheid but dont' expect most rational people to agree with you.
    1
  86. @BobsTechLab, What I'd expect my government to do is not to kick people out of their homes, slaughter then children and then stick them into concentration camps like Gaza and expect them to be happy about it. That is essentially what most rational people would expect a government not to do. This isn't complicated nor is it a rocket science.
    1
  87. Actually most of these nations are sending food. Trouble is Israel is threatening to blow up the food trucks. This country in the video sent an entire flotilla filled with food and medical supplies to Gaza around the year 2008. The Apartheid regime of Israel boarded the ship in international waters and murdered the people delivering the supplies. So if food isnt' getting there, don't blame the people who actually send the food. Blame the people who attack the deliveries.

  88.  @jo-wv4lc  Israel and Ukraine.
    1
  89.  @NJIT22  So a nation which did something 1000 years ago can't call out something being done right now? According to your logic any nation could start slaughtering people and no one would be able to say anything because in the past 1000 years they've done something bad. Think about the insanity of what you're proposing here.

  90. @H Stetser, What do you mean for nothing. The entire point of the war was to facilitate billions of dollars in spending. Mission accomplished. I wonder where they're headed to next.

  91.  @deenutz2455  Unfortunately that would not surprise me one bit. 😢

  92.  @feminineheart  Israel has shown it will not only steal people's homes, slaughter their children and stuff them into concentration camps. But it has shown it will enact their "final solution" on all the women and children in said concentration camp if they show resistance. This is painfully obvious for the entire planet to see.
    1
  93. Adam Borseti, What you're saying would make sense in a more rational world. However we don't live in such a world. For Finland and to a much greater extent Sweden adhering to these demands would be an admission of guilt. They're were always under the assumption that the larger members of Nato would simply bully Turkey into lifting the veto threat. They completely miscalculated the situation. The Turks are hot skipping mad so unless American jumps in and pulls a proverbial cat out of the bag, the Fins and Swedes are fuked.

  97.  @DanielPyle-l9f  This is true, their condemnation of Israel was probably diluted due to the amount of pressure they were under.
    1
  98.  @DanielPyle-l9f  So essentially you're saying it's their fault a bunch of Europeans came to where they live, started slaughtering them like cattle, kicked them off their land and put the ones who survived into concentration camps? Yea maybe they have some responsibility in allowing it to happen? Yes. But more striking is the fact you're giving their tormentor a pass. The world has changed with the internet and people having access to all sorts of information. You can't simply build a narrative so far from reality and expect people not to laugh at you bro. Those days are over, time to come to terms with it.
    1
  99.  @lygcdr675  Again the vast majority of Palestinians are in the west bank and had ZERO to do with Hamas coming to power in Gaza. I can't fault you for not knowing that. What I can fault you for is having such strong opinions on matters which you obvious know nothing about. In fact it's kind of insane. The fact you'd try to rationalize people being slaughtered like cattle, kicked off their land and the survivors being put into modern day concentration camps. You have no problem with that. Yet in trying to rationalize all that you don't even know the first thing about who lives where in that part of the world. If you're going to sell a BS narrative, at least know a tad bit about the subject matter. Maybe you can make your BS a bit more believable ya know?

  104. @Sabri.92. Palestinians are semitic. So anyone who is not against Palestinians being thrown into concentration camps, is technically anti-semitic. Don't let people misuse that phrase as a bullying tactic to rationalize brutality, murder, concentration camps and ethnic cleansing.
    1
  105.  @etcetera-9  90% of the time I see it, it is used as a tool to shut down debate or to rationalize Apartheid or ethnic cleansing. Remember anytime you hear it, your opponent is telling you've lost the debate.

  116.  @sabyegrp  You have a point but generally speaking the guys on the front lines don't generally decide things on the political front. They don't decide who they're fighting, why they're fighting nor who they're going to fight with, that is usually left to policy makers. With that said though I can see the "who I'm fighting with" having an effect on troops on the front line. Lets assume a world war kicked off and Nato was involved. If I'm on the front lines I'm not sure I'd want to be fighting with inexperienced Swedish troops who have pink hair and a degree in gender studies.
    1
  117.  @sabyegrp  I have zero experience with it but I'd imagine going into battle must be one of the hardest thing any human ever has to do. I didn't go but a bunch of my friends signed up right after 9-11, most of them in the Marines. When some of them got back from their tours, they weren't the same guys I remember. :O(
    1
  118. It makes sense to help the people who helped the troops during their time there. If not, it would send a horrible message to the rest of the world for the future. If you help our troops, you'll be left high and dry when they leave. I'm no fan of taking in massive amounts of migrants but in this case it's the right thing to do.

So they've found a better way to do it, by making us cheer them on as they do it. So no, we aren't going to stop nation building anytime soon. In fact with Biden in office I'm shocked they haven't already attacked their next target. They have to keep the gravy train flowing.

  139.  @CM3Dave  You do realize your prewritten propaganda talking points have essentially all been proven false right? First lets talk about the Palestinians who supposedly have it the best. The ones who are Israeli citizens. You do know Israel has laws prohibiting them from buying land in certain areas? Such restrictions do not apply to Jews. That is a clear cut case of an apartheid law which makes an apartheid state. The marriage laws and the right of family reunion is also a two tier legal system for Israeli citizens. If you're Jewish you face zero restrictions on such matters, if you are Palestinian, you face massive restrictions. The law essentially treats you differently based on your ethnicity. There are 100s of other such laws in the apartheid state of Israel's books. You can easily look them up, you simply can't hide this fact. As far as Gaza goes, Gaza is demonstrably the world's only concentration camp. Not only the only one in the world but also the largest and longest lasting concentration camp in human history. You have 2.3 million people walled off from the world. They can't build ports, they're not allowed to build water systems for irrigation. They can't move freely, they can't trade with other nations as they please. Israel determines how much water they drink and how many calories they're allowed to consume. This is by every definition of the word a concentration camp. And now Israel is enacting it's "final solution" to the people of said concentration camp. Again something the world hasn't seen since WW2. Appalling behavior that no one can explain away. More civilians have died in Gaza in the past two weeks than all the wars around the globe since 2020 COMBINED. Even including the huge Ukraine Russia war which has lasted almost two years. Israel is a rogue state. The fascist apartheid regime is guilty of literally breaking every single war crime on the books via the Geneva convention. (it is the only nation to have done this in the modern era.) You can try to rationalize away these crimes but it isn't going to work. This isn't the early 2000s where Israel can slaughter human beings like cattle and use mass media to cover it up. This is now the true information age, the world is watching. Israel's reputation will never recover from this, the vast majority of the world will treat it like pariah state it is. Even here in the west, our nations who support this insanity are becoming isolated from a world which is shocked and appalled by this insanity.

  163.  @FINNSTIGAT0R  Well considering they've lost 30,000 people from armed attacks over the past few decades. I'm sure you can appreciate how sensitive they are over the issue. Sometimes it's hard to put yourself into someone else's shoes and then wonder how you'd react in the same situation. However I do think it's ridiculous that the Turks are putting the Finns in the same boat as the Swedes in this situation. Finland isn't the one publically budgeting over 300 million dollars this year to arm these groups. Their grip with Sweden I completely understand but it's odd they're treating Finland exactly the same.

    1
  165.  @FINNSTIGAT0R  Wow there is a lot to unpack there. As someone who tries to follow what is going on around the world I've seen quite a bit of Turkey complaining that members of armed groups aren't being extradited from Sweden and Finland (Sweden a lot more). This was well before this Nato issue came up, so this idea that this cropped up right as the Nato issue came up is unfortunately wrong. I myself am from the United States, so not being from Turkey, Finland or Sweden I can be less emotional about this issue and try to be rational. As far as Turkey having issues with the United States on these same exact issues that is 100% correct. Except Turkey has zero leverage on us over these issues like they do with Sweden right now. The fighter jet issue is also a very complex issue, mostly due to some bone headed decisions by the Obama administration and Erdogan's complete and utter stubbornness when Trump tried to fix the problem years later. Fact of the matter is Turkey is hot skipping mad (mostly at Sweden and rightfully so) and it seems Finland has gotten caught up in this entire mess. I'd imagine when push comes to shove the Turks will budge on the Finland matter but it will take A LOT for them to back off on Sweden. I do agree that Finland joining Nato will change the entire geo political structure of that region. So much so that under normal circumstances I would have bet on some sort of Russian military operation to stop it. But now that Russia is bogged down in Ukraine which is a cake walk compared to what they'd face in Finland. Finland's geography alone will prohibit Russia from doing much after learning the lack of capabilities their military possesses. Sweden on the other than I'm not sure what they'd bring to the organization other than another cog to push the Russians out of that body of water between them. Not to mention that compared to Finland they do not have a ready to fight population. Best thing for Finland is to simply sign a new extradition treaty with Turkey and hope their Nato bid can be decoupled from Sweden's bid. Sweden is fuked lol

With that said the high inflation in Turkey will hurt Erdogan but probably won't hurt him enough for him to lose. I personally don't find him impressive enough to overcome this terrible inflation but I still think he will win because his opponents are completely and utterly inept. If they had a rational and half decent opposition he'd lose for sure. But such an opposition doesn't exist in that country right now. I give Erdogan a 90% change of winning.

  206.  @CorporalCookie  As far as these debates over who is and who isn't a terrorist, those are ridiculous debates. Since terrorism started it's always been one side claiming they're terrorists and another side claiming they're freedom fighters, that is a debate you'll have to have with the Turks and Swedes. I'm not interested in those debates I'm simply interested in the reality of a situation. When you're giving millions (openly) to an armed group, I'm sure you can understand how that can be an issue. You can also understand how awkward it is when that armed group is attacking a member of a collective defense organization you're trying to join. Calling it humanitarian aid isn't really a feasible counter argument either. It's not like these armed groups are using this money to build hospitals.
    1
  207.  @CorporalCookie  When you publicaly earmark 360 million dollars to an armed group. It's on you to prove this money is going to anything other than armed attacks. Don't take Turkey's word on anything. Take Sweden's word on it. Again they're pretty open about this financing. They're not denying it either.
    1
  208.  @CorporalCookie  No it's not, they're sending it directly to the armed group. Then their claim is that it's being used by humanitarian reasons. So the burden of proof is on them that this armed group isn't spending the money on attacks no? That is like me giving the money to Bin Laden, admitting I do it but then being like "well he is using that money for poor kids." Yea maybe he is but the burden of proof would be on me to prove it. The issue is burden of proof, not your subjective view of who's word should or shouldn't be taken. You can't simply be giving hundreds of millions to armed groups and all just be fine because some guy n armed "CorporalCookie" believes you shouldn't be questioned. Especially when that armed group is attacking a member of a collective defense organization Sweden is trying to join.

  227. I'll tell you one thing, if what you said happened there would be zero feminists and social justice warriors left in this country. They'd be out there trying to explain how there are 56 different genders to the Taliban and how oppressed they are.

  232.  @darryl5372  Anyone who pays attention to what is going on around the world has understood for well over 20 years that all they do is manufacture false narratives. Only in the past 5 years or so have they started using this weapon against their own people on domestic issues as well. They talk about lies you ask? Very much so. Very carefully crafted narratives to make you believe something which isn't true. The main testing ground for such things was laid when they made everyone believe Iraq had weapons of mass destruction when the entire planet knew they didn't.
