Could it not be argued then that the start was Bush II not standing up when Russia sliced off parts of Georgia p?
51
Well they are at war with someone who actually has a signed alliance so...
24
Well they held onto Ukraine for a good while...
12
Because those weren't over cities and built up areas creating firestorms which send soot up into the stratosphere (which actually wouldn't happen on the required scale anyway)
11
How else will they repay their loans?
10
oh wow, it would be impossible for the road to change
10
Cool, so why hasn't the UK given Ukraine a security guarantee yet?
10
@Sgt.Hartman yes it is. He was extremely blase about Russia and made an infamously catty remark to Mitt Romney for warning about them.
9
Not off by over two decades!
8
I got the sense Lex was not too impressed.
8
attacking ships in territorial waters of neutral countries is kinda frowned upon.
8
@alexanderisg no, being obnoxious while incorrect by decades is not "generalising" it is just ignorant (and hilarious).
8
@alexanderisg clearly you have no knowledge if you are talking about the "Axis" instead of the Central Powers Alliance. Don't speak to people you do not know like that if you cannot be bothered getting your facts right.
7
@Skywatcher16 they aren't even using conscripts in Ukraine yet.
6
Things could escalate quickly from a relatively benign point
6
@DIREWOLFx75 Wow! So they managed to steal it while being trained on it at Fort Sill USA? Where the Ukrainian crews were actually trained? If you are going to bullshit, at least try to put a bit of effort in we aren't a captive audience.
6
Hysterical post. The kind that gets dug up and laughed a few years down the track.
5
 @DavidLLambertmobile that is a capacity problem then which expanding to 24 hour operation would relieve.
5
@britishrocklovingyank3491 what a stupid irrelevant question. Early chapters of such books go into much mundane detail of the formative years of their subject. Have you ever read such a book before?
5
he had a much better time and didn't get whinged at
5
I think you're forgetting to explain why that is relevant
5
@angusmatheson9997 what does that have to do with Kamala Harris lying about being relatable?
5
@VanderlyndenJengold so weak...yet Putin had to wait until Biden was in before he was willing to make another move on Ukraine. Funny that.
4
In the Okinawa campaign a Marine general had to order the confederate flag be taken down from Shuri Castle after it was captured
4
@wg4154 oh it matters.
4
This comment section is akin to reddit during summer holidays
4
Yet no footage of her ever arguing a case...
4
Maybe you need to actually win stuff. Just a thought.
4
@RyanMcBethProgramming worse, she cherry picked those and Sagan acolyte Owen Toon's more recent claims that Nuclear Winter would be even more severe than they predicted.
4
 @britishrocklovingyank3491 have you read the books? It is exactly what those types of texts go into.
4
 @danielcamacho1913 came to say this, Israel has been repeatedly caught doing this even after they were caught in the nineties.
4
Well Zelensky already was on the PR front until he got put in his place.
4
About point 7, having voting on Saturdays and many many polling locations makes it a lot easier to access for working class people compared to UK and US (based on anecdotal discussions with expats) - Point 4 I completely agree with you and something must be done.
4
Why would that be relevant?
3
ok but...what if it works? Are you going admit you were wrong?
3
That is what the harvesting phase is for. You see what sticks then... unleash the Sophists
3
@Rob_F8F false.
3
 @dineauxjones how often have barracks burned down as a result of that equipment being misused?
3
@marvindebot3264 unfortunately this is yet another ANZAC myth that Australian school children are taught - he never said this.
3
@ If people from other countries want to make demand s but not take a look at their own backyard that is pretty pathetic. And no, repaying a loan does entitle you to obligate another country into signing up for world war three. No one form any country should "dare" criticise the US when they wont put their own and their kid's lives on the chopping block.
3
@wknight5595 how many HIMARS and Patriot systems were left there?
3
OK generic profile started coincidentally at the start of the invasion.
3
Yeah, Nah.
2
@adamruddle6558 lol what? Their GDP has never cracked $200 billion USD and yes they did ask the UK how they could repay them.
2
lol they are not standing tall if they do not pay their share of the burden. And their contribution in Afghanistan was substandard.
2
@dubiumguy Should also be noted that Churchill was not the PM at the beginning of the war. Chamberlain lost a vote of confidence, something that Churchill narrowly avoided a few times during the war. Very different to Zelensky's rule of Ukraine.
2
@ what you are saying is false, either deliberately or just through ignorance. Read up on what actually happened and what was agreed.
2
@charlesmartin1121 pretty sure he doesnt have one
2
You need to learn the difference between "can't" and "won't". Had your old employer been referenced in a national story they would have pulled their archives. For you? Lol
2
@ so that is all you have to rebut the historical fact that Putin had to wait for a Dem POTUS to move against Ukraine again? Childish.
2
@ the North Korean meme is a distraction. The NORKs are getting more out of that than the Russians - almost like North Korea expects to have to fight a large scale modern war in the near future.
2
You would care if you were running for POTUS and made yourself look like a casual liar. It would be enough to pull your social security records.
2
@insidious7329 sorry but where did I say my preferred candidate?
2
@seitengewehr98 lol what did you fight for? 'Terps being abandoned outside the gates of Kabul airport?
2
@peters-z8n turns out you were wrong.
2
@peters-z8n His identity was just released, Axel Rudakubana. So much for the "law".
2
@tristan7216 do you really enjoy mentioning that you worked for NASA once? Because I see no other purpose for you making that comment.
2
and? You realise many of our area measurements come from comparisons?
2
@lunachu8691 False.
2
Don't get hysterical.
2
That support was vital in the first days and is the reason why they didn't quickly fall, so these "officials" are full of shit.
2
How would you know that? Do you even know how many crayon factories are left in the US?
2
What did he just lie about? Let's drill down.
2
@Fanta.... no because then they would actually have to pay for their own defence.
2
@ oh yes, the vital freedom of navigation through the Danube. Europe is actually doing the US a big favour by underfunding their militaries!
2
@KijkEenVogel anything to avoid paying your share of defence spending eh? You should be ashamed of yourself.
2
@ChucksSEADnDEAD thanks for answering the question no one asked
2
lol what absolute crap
2
I live in a safe seat, so I write dirty jokes.
2
Because if there both proven liars it levels the field in that regard.
2
lol
2
@ we already had that in 1999 when we asked for US help with Indonesia and Clinton told us no.
2
@pogo1140 That is a not a security guarantee. A security guarantee is a commitment to expend the lives of their own citizens in a future war for Ukraine. If they are not willing to take that grave risk on their own they have no right to criticise.
2
As an Australian I think the time has come for you to grow up.
2
@MrCSeiberlin I agree with most of what you said but Ukraine was not "sold a bill of goods". They know how to read, they knew what was being promised and more importantly what was NOT being promised when they signed. Fact was they did not have working nuclear weapons and their economy was going to be absolutely ruined by sanctions by the time they got them usable so they traded them for what they could get at the time.
2
@hateferlife "Don't like? Don't join." and with those last four words you demonstrate that you miss the point completely.
2
Childish take.
2
@warmachineuk the problem is that Ukraine is owed nothing yet Zelensky believes it is owed and more. He previously had a similar incident with Biden in private and has been refusing to consider a peace deal thinking everything will just continue as it has been until he gets all of the territories back plus a security guarantee - none of which is going to happen. In those circumstances how do you end the war without applying pressure to the recalcitrant party?
2
@ which has been done which is why Putin is coming to the table.
2
@elliotthall6049 and the pub around the corner calls Fosters beer but that doesn't make it true. A servo is short for service station IE servicing a driving clientele.
2
Already is and developments are being closely followed by the UN - they recently reported that the first case of an AI deciding to kill a human took place in Libya 2021
2
@jimness5902 are you an adult?
2
@allangibson8494 totally missed the point there sweetie, try again!
2
Cool story bro
1
"biggest electoral promise" what have you been smoking?
1
so you dont think Biden was gambling with American lives when defying severe warnings form Putin that it could lead to nuclear war? Or was that ok because it was your team?
1
what do you think would be a better idea?
1
@DimitryNZ thing about defence spending is that if you go cheap on it and rely on your allies to do all of the heavy lifting (eg New Zealand not bothering with fighter planes) you could eventually end up losing a lot more housing when you get invaded.
1
@DimitryNZ ok, the thing is that we have been let down very badly by European arms contractors. We are nowhere near blameless, however as mentioned the subs were shockingly behind and the helicopters while showing great initial promise have also had serious failures to the point where the Tigers completely missed our War on Terror deployment. We have been forced to buy American helicopters with inferior (stated) capabilities because the European ones have been abject failures. Your claim about it being a rule in politics not to touch the Americans does not touch the sniff test as if true we would never have gone to Europe to source arms in the first place and as far as subsidising US industry...their shipyards building the subs are already over capacity.
1
@DimitryNZ wow it's great that you can predict the future Dimitry! Of course China is pouring money into a Blue Water navy solely to chug up and down their coast, they have shown no interest in projecting power into the Indian Ocean or South Pacific where our sea lanes are! As far as comparing it to NZ military budget... really?
1
Chess or not trump is the one doing the talking because your country is not doing much to help anyway. So...
1
How would you handle it?
1
Cool so you don't want the big new American base? You speak for everyone there, right?
1
Also Poland has had a much more contentious relationship with Ukraine during this war, so convenient for you to forget that.
1
@ lol he's a German, the place where citizens get arrested for commenting on a fat politician's weight and cops get stabbed to death while trying to stop an AfD worker from defending themselves from a terrorist.
1
Watch it again. You seem to have missed the point. The hard points.
1
Yeah except Putin only launches invasions when Dem presidents are in, so that is a load of shit.
1
@Holtijaar that does not translate into him being leader the entire time. It isn't "fully legal" that is a distortion on your part.
1
Or might give him impetus to escalate.
1
@jesuszamora6949 oh you think that level of escalation? Bless your heart.
1
@GothicPotato2 thats nice but it still isn't relevant. No one is expecting to be able to walk in on any day and speak to someone behind the counter that clearly recalls her.
1
@NandR How do you know this?
1
@Nitro1000 false.
1
@fgadenz that money does not belong to Ukraine. Next.
1
@ Israel is a separate issue, conflating the two is just childish posturing. For a start, they have a an actual military alliance with the US something that Ukraine does not have (no "security guarantee") and never will. You don't like that? ok.
1
@ "worst time in worst way" dial done the drama Sally.
1
Cool story bro 👍
1
@trplankowner3323 an example you just made up aka a "cool story".
1
@kennandunn7533 only because you need to believe.
1
@Soren015 yeah she was bullshitting. She is running for POTUS, no such thing as a "casual interview". Your lies are cringeworthy...if you don't think it is relevant, then don't participate. Just don't lie.
1
As opposed to Zelensky's tactic of demanding the side who is winning hand everything back and the US drag themselves into a future war for them? Tell us again what trump loses if he isn't given what he wants and what Ukraine loses if they are not given what they want?
1
Right. And how does this mean Ukraine should be setting terms?
1
@ Because they are losing.
1
@ oh this horseshit again, the same bullshit repeated the first month of the invasion that Russia was about to collapse. Eve if true, you know what? They are still showing up. Meanwhile units like the 155 Mech are mass deserting.
1
And the whole "refusing to participate in peace talks" thing might have something to do with it
1
@ they have not even taken place yet. Trump has had preliminary talks to establish a framework just like Rubio already had in Ukraine regarding the mineral deal where it was made clear that a security guarantee was not happening.
1
@ you don't seem to grasp that there is no win possible for Ukraine. They ran out of money, bodies and time. The hope is to get something instead of complete collapse and defeat aka "suing for peace".
1
@ so if he brokers an agreement where Ukraine stops losing the lives of their citizens and gets time to rebuild their defences that doesnt count for anything because muh rights? Childish.
1
comments like these belong on reddit.
1
Because she is currently the one doing the podcast circuit scaremongering to sell books.
1
@NeilPopowitz you just asked why this book and author was being called out and I told you.
1
Because she has a very big relatability problem she was trying to overcome.
1
@balinthehater8205 what have you done about the invading force? When are you going there to enlist?
1
@daveg-Vancouver_Island your mother.
1
That is what happens when you are losing a war., The alternative is just...losing. Zelensky ran out of time and patience, he is not in a position to make ridiculous demands of other countries who owe him nothing. The guy was pivotal in the first year of the war but his leadership decisions have not been good for years now.
1
Won't happen, silly thing to even ponder.
1
Oh no they weren't specifically trained not to build ass pyramids? Those poor innocent guards!
1
Which carrier is in the Adriatic?
1
None of which is relevant unless you worked at that franchise at that time.
1
So what was Zelensky's term when he last won an election?
1
@ what you are saying is false, either deliberately or just through ignorance. Read up on what actually happened and what was agreed
1
@ sorry, youtube is doing something shit with the tagging - that response was meant for @OctavMandru
1
@ erasing Yeltsin from history eh?
1
@hitdabucket that is an exceptional level of TDS. Congrats.
1
@kruesae22 ok so Putin apparently had a Russian asset in charge of the US 2017 to 2021 but didnt dare make a move against Ukraine until Biden was in? Grow up.
1
@AnonD38 You think Ukraine is an "Allied nation"? Do you know what words mean before you use them?
1
@splashfreelance your Russian asset story is plain nonsense disproven by the two Russian invasions of Ukraine only occurring under Dem presidents.
1
@ oh wow they are "openly cooperating"! Thanks for the corporate non-speak champ but they are not allies. The term alliance has meaning and you do not know what you are blathering about.
1
@Krayt-t5h for the most part when they say silly shit like he can't be antiwar if he increases the number of drone strikes to accelerate withdrawal from current wars. BTW I am not a Trump "supporter", I am not even American. What other cope will you devise to be able to protect your ego?
1
@ an alliance by definition is by signed treaty which enshrines mutual defence obligations. No such treaty exist with Ukraine. An alliance is not formed from positive media coverage or reddit popularity. How do you not know this?
1
@ I already clearly explained what it is in this context. Just because you cherry picked a few very generalised definitions that you think vaguely supports what you said alongside some other things not in the context of international relations does not equal a coveted "internet win" for you. An alliance in the context of international relations is a specific thing that Ukraine simply does not and never has had with NATO countries. Then to double down you spout the myth of Ukraine being guaranteed security when no such thing happened, they signed a document that promised little because they had little to negotiate with and were quietly told they would be ruined if they tried to retain their inert nukes they had in their possession. Did your mother have any children that lived?
1
@ Now you are just being hysterical and making shit up to try to win. Sad, pathetic and in no way helpful to Ukraine or any sense of mature debate. Grow up. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_alliance
1
@TheOneAndOnlyOuuo I don't know if you are suffering cognitive dissonance or just another liar. I suspect the latter. No security guarantee was ever made.
1
Wow, totally relevant anecdote there...
1
 @adasterdezaster2865 still changes things if they are both confirmed liars.
1
 @allangibson8494 she can obtain and release those records to clear this matter up.
1
Better make peace then.
1
@ what?
1
@ the Russian economy was meant to collapse three years ago. Waiting for that is a foolish strategy.
1
@ oh wow stealing butter - you know that in a lot of US shops they need to keep common food spam and cheese in locked cabinets? Russian GDP is still growing. Posting shit about butter is Ghost of Kiev level bullshit.
1
well, Zelensky is in a losing position but is being recalcitrant. If he is in the way of a peace agreement then removing him will be preferable to total Ukrainian collapse.
1
Are you really questioning that? What purpose was the claim made for in the first place? Obviously there is an advantage, think for a few seconds before posting please.
1
Nope, listen again.
1
Zelensky was instrumental early in the war but he should have stepped down when the spring offensive failed in 23
1
You won't be allowed to.
1
@ how was he "doing his bidding" exactly? Why the sanctions under Trump? Why no invasions of Ukraine under Trump? This isn't reddit, you cant expect to just regurgitate the approved talking points and expect it to be accepted unquestioningly.
1
Also under his last administration, Putin didn't invade Ukraine. Under Obama he did, also under Biden. An inconvenient fact of history for some.
1
@Rob_F8F North Korea is getting the main benefit of that deal. They are sending inexperienced troops they don't even feed properly and getting back battle hardened veterans of a modern battlefield, something South Korea and even the US does not have. Russia is not "relying" on them at all.
1
@ has nothing to do with what I said. Follow the context of a discussion before contributing.
1
@ because....*drumroll* Afghanistan was never that big a deal (lol it did not "break" the country) for the USSR and were trying to extricate themselves from it after day one. They see Ukraine as a matter of national survival and are observing lessons from Afghanistan eg not sending conscripts in that get the political support base pissed off. How did I think it is going? I think it is going far better for them than it is for Ukraine. Ukraine is scraping the bottom of the manpower barrel and suffering a desertion crisis resulting in entire foreign equipped and trained brigades being taken off the table.
1
It is a little more nuanced than that and they did quell the protests they just don't want them getting bigger. Apparently a high number of the conscripts are signing contracts at the end of their term anyway which is a big reason why they do not need to send non volunteers. Ukraine on the other hand is facing a major conscription crisis.
1
Yes otherwise Putin would not have had to wait for another democrat president to launch another invasion of Ukraine.
1
Yes. He only invades Ukraine under the Democrat president's watch.
1
Greenland is leaving Denmark regardless so you don't have a point.
1
Russia has plenty of men left, Ukraine does not.
1
Afghanistan was already lost and yes Biden completely botched it. His decision on Bagram was an absolute shitshow.
1
Ones being run for a foreign intelligence operation? Very likely they would.
1
Track record for Russian invasions of Ukraine when POTUS Obama - 1 Trump - 0 Biden - 1 Hmmmm...what could this data indicate?
1
DNA is highly overrated as evidence and contamination is common.
1
How could they be backstabbing when they are not an ally? Like Italy was in 43?
1
@bluemarlin8138 that is a silly thing to be concerned about when you have unstaffed civilian gyms with people doing crossfit.
1
@EmperorPrinc3 and?
1
4) In 2025, Ukraine is on the brink of collapse and a Zelensky is making silly demands instead of ending the war.
1
 @bilic8094 where did Putin say this?
1
And why do you think that?
1
@ThisPartIsAndrew sounds like you just don't like that he is charge of the estate and frankly if someone is looking to commit murder for financial gain there are better ways to do it than destroying an asset you could gain. Motive is not proof of a crime so you should not be making public accusations unless you actually have some evidence.
1
@ThisPartIsAndrew insurance does not cover 100% and entails much more risk than other ways to get rid of an elderly person. You are just making things up about someone you aren't man enough to confront without involving the law in your family squabbles.
1
@ThisPartIsAndrew kek you got beaten up by a woman and you are calling men "cupcake"? I bet you pee sitting down too!
1
@ThisPartIsAndrew cool story bro. You let yourself get beaten up by an old lady.
1
@spudpud-T67 So are you thinking Poland should take some of that land back from Ukraine?
1
@ Nope, Russia is taking the east there is still some land in Western Ukraine that previously belonged to Poland. Now tell us why Poland should not retake instead of keeping peace between them?
1
Grow up. If it were true, why did Putin not make any moves during his last term? Why would he only attack when Democrat presidents were in charge?
1
@peters-z8n but unless the judge is breaking the law... you were wrong.
1
@TurdFurgeson275 and he could have chosen to ignore the question or replied "so?" or any number of things. The conversation we are having has much more value than your little interjection.
1
@peters-z8n if it is "law" then the judge cannot simply ignore it, he can only do so if allowed under legislation. You were wrong.
1
@peters-z8n well if it makes you feel better, I don't think you are playing.
1
Yet Kamala lost to that.
1
How was she listening to them? I love zoomer posts sometimes...
1
@PaulLefebvre if McDonald's got sued by a bunch of former employees you bet corporate could prove who never worked there.
1
@uncletiggermclaren7592 I worked for a major bank and we would frequently tell customers that we did not retain records beyond seven years but you know what we actually managed to pull records from over thirty years ago when they were needed for court cases. It just took weeks while literal piles of document crates were moved around like a giant Rubik's cube then people got the fun job of scanning everything in them.
1
@PaulLefebvre have you ever heard of something called "tax" and "social security"?
1
@Nathan-jh1ho probably was not paid into an account back then, I remember our kindergarten teacher in the early 80s searching our pockets for her missing paypacket and smacking the crap out of the girl she found it on.
1
@PaulLefebvre lol you really think SS info gets somehow deleted from the face of the Earth after seven years? Ok now you are just posting things without thinking.
1
@PaulLefebvre you think social security does not keep records for more than seven years? IRS?
1
Lol what a simplistic thing to say. Do you know who is buying Hunter Biden's "artwork" and where their money comes from? Even if you did it does not prove anything. There are always ways to get payment through.
1
Stop spreading this myth that they were given any security guarantee. The agreement was to refer it to the UN, the US did.
1
@bezyn2291 oh "codes don't mean fuck all"...because you say so. Ukraine did not have the industrial capability to maintain the warheads for that long.
1
@ You clearly do not know what you are talking about. Nucelar warheads are secured by safeguards so they cannot be simply stolen put on a truck and detonated somewhere. Anyone who tries to tamper with one will have it conventionally blow up in their face spreading fissile material everywhere. Look up permissive action links. Ryan McBeth has previously posted about warhead shelf life.
1
I remember when the Germans were laughing at Trump when he was warning them about becoming dependent on Russian gas and funding Putin with it. He used that money to invade Ukraine.
1
@supra3502 I was referring to intelligence they used stingers to ambush Russian aircraft at Hostomel thanks to US intelligence. They also had Javelins that Trump gave them duringhis firstterm, so you are wrong about equipment.
1
@ So? That isn't nothing. What is your point?
1
@TWFydGlu and risk world war three. Great.
1
they usually just say that as a defence to accusations of bias. Ryan hasn't exactly been praising Trump in the past.
1
Trump told you years ago you had to spend more and stop funding Putin by buying gas, you laughed at him.
1
There was a bizarre one where a woman died in 1987 during an attempted home invasion, her accomplices didn't know her real name and the shotgun blast left her unidentifiable. "Shotgun Jane Doe" was recently identified as Tena Gattrell in 2021 via DNA being matched to her siblings.
1
@newtonchambo the context is comparing it to Americans.
1
 @Snugggg lol
1
@ailo4x4 Yes they are with permission. If you feel strongly for Kamala don't make her look bad by making shit up.
1
Owed nothing.
1
 @denisphelan8987 you sound a little testy. Calm down.
1
@ which are abysmal and pathetic. The absolute gall of (many) Euros to expect American taxpayers to carry their defence burden.
1
Try editing that comment so that it makes some sort of sense
1
@ You can't even defend yourselves militarily - you are absolutely full of it. If things were fine, why the need to increase spending when Russia showed that it was not going to behave? Why not carry on like normal? Please think before you hot that reply button.
1
Yeah his term 2017-2021 and dealings with Putin during that time prove you wrong. Remember, Putin only dared move against Ukraine when Democrats were in the White House.
1
@ 2.4% last year. And they have more beef with Germany, the Greenland silliness has no real consequence for Greenland as they are going to lose it soon either way.
1
@fackgugle6497 between the US and Germany. It hasn't been reported much in the media but they have been giving verbal support for Ukraine in public while dragging their feet. Didn't help when they were derisively laughing at Trump's speech to their parliament warning them that they were going to regret coming to rely on Norsdstream. That is great that the king has a nice little picture for Greenland, maybe the Greenlanders will stop trying for independence and gravitating towards China because of it.
1
@KijkEenVogel I am not a yank sweetie and you put too much stock in your feelings rather than the practical realities of the world. There is a lot of middle ground between total American isolationism and continuing the burden of your defence while you spend the money on welfare benefits that yank citizens can only dream of.
1
@ Yes I read what you wrote and went into the specifics rather your charity bullshit that makes you feel good. wow, 2.4% finally up to minimum levels after years of neglect while financing a welfare state instead. Want a cookie?
1
What is your plan for Ukraine to win then?
1
 @excuseyou1526 Denmark is about to lose Greenland anyway.
1
@aquaticborealis4877 no there isn't.
1
@AgentX2006 Zelensky was already told no security guarantee, wrong time to bring it up and he knew it which is why this was clearly a preplanned stunt from him. Elon wasn't there for an important diplomatic event - he still at least wore a blazer.
1
no one cares.
1
Well he should be because under his leadership Ukraine is going to lose. He was great at the beginning, even pivotal but the bad decisions have stacked up and time is running out. IF one man is in the way of a realistic settlement then that man needs to go.
1
Yeah that is why he took Ukrainian territory just like he did during the Obama and Biden admins ... oh wait
1
How many IRR went to Iraq? More than several dozen?
1
@tyranosurasmax wow you claim to be expert on music because you are session musician but how does that qualify you as an expert on memory? People remember songs playing during formative events, far better than some cretin ti kering with an advertising jingle on one dreary work day out of many.
1
No the shameful time was when people were clinging onto USAF aircraft flying out of Kabul.
1
Yeah but Putin never invaded Ukraine during Trump's term unlike Obama and Biden either side of him. Almost like...this is a leftist fantasy
1
Who were the guarantor countries? There were no guarantees.
1
 @btechnomage if only some national entity was responsible for tax matters and known to keep such records....
1
@mytwosense9135 Great answer. Valuable contribution.
1
@ChucksSEADnDEAD It was a complete misrepresentation of what I said.
1
@ Doesn't have to be big to give a security guarantee. What, you think there might be a risk of war if it does?
1
@ wrong, because they actually have a security guarantee. That is what it means to be an ally, something Ukraine is not.
1
@Khronogilol you can't sit on the fence with Snowden.
1
a Russian pawn that Putin dared not move when he was in power 2017-21. OK.

@avidreader4563 the person I was addressing or you would be tagged

And your point?

Please edit your comment when sober. TIA.

are you furious and ashamed enough to go to Ukraine and enlist? Or are social media comments the best you can do?

@ lol you attack Trump for his military education when it is more extensive than Zelensky's...who was a comedian. You are just another slacktivist crying fake emotion when you are not willing to have any further personal stake than shitposting while Ukrainian men and women are being ground up in a losing war while the idiot in charge of them doesn't want to face reality.

Sorry but the US military has been treated as a social experiment for well over a century back to world war one.

Europe is still going to be Europe in expecting someone else to pay for it

 @556deltawolf such a pay rise is hardly going to bankrupt the country. At worst a reduction in other capabilities but still less than the capability lost by retention shortfalls.

The old bounty story that was brought up during the 2020 election then revealed to be a load of shit? Right.

lol it needs a new leader. He was great at the start but from the failure of the 23 spring offensive he should have stepped down.
1
wow your friends have time to communicate daily and also fighting at the front? Zelensky needs to go, time is up. Or Ukraine will collapse completely.
1
Anything else you wrote in the little story in your head?
1
Did you pay tax? Social Security?

Because she said something to make herself sound relatable and it backfired.

@jonevansauthor there were protests in Nazi Germany that scared the shit out of the government and stopped or at least delayed their intended work such as the Aktion T4 and Rosenstrasse protests.
1
 @nicholasconder4703 why should that have stopped them?
1
 @BingoPaletot why are you still trying to argue the point? Just accept that you are wrong.
1
@BingoPaletot no you made up a pathetic way to try to still be right.
1
@BingoPaletot oh wow arguing genetics to solve an argument. That totally proves that you are not grasping at straws
1
Won't someone please think of the children!!!
1
 @jasperhorace7147 you are as bad as the people making things up.
1
The French were screwing us over, which is why we ditched them.

Churchill didnt dress up like a fool and demand the US c ommit to joining a future war in front of the media, did he?
1
They would probably have invasions of Ukraine occur under their nose like with Obama and Bidrn but not Trump.

Childish whataboutism. One of the reasons why Harris is doing so badly.

That is basically what happens in Threads, the characters just don't give a shit because they feel detached (I don't even like Threads)

 @chadh6855 it was also planned to be fully expendable after two weeks of full scale neer peer war.
1
Zelensky needs to give up power.
1
@idkxolotl Ukraine is going to collapse before Russia does. Even in Korea the US sought peace sooner.
1
@ Based on his childish comment, yes. Even as a child I learned you do not bite the hand that feeds, in their own house.
1
@ like the drivel about Zelensky's stupidity and arrogance being of any benefit at all to Ukraine? At least he had the sense to apologise after cooling down.
1
LOL big difference between having no records and not wanting to bother trawling through them for days for an ex employee too lazy to keep her own portfolio up to date or even keep backissues...
1
@alexcarter8807 oh wow, they didn't even recognise your name after you had been vice president for four years?
1
Putin never moved against Ukraine while he was in charge but felt free to do so under Obama and Biden. You need to stop pretending otherwise, Fast.
1
@caboose2569 Elections have consequences. Stop pretending otherwise.

You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. For a start, ANZUS was turned into a joke when the kiwis pulled their anti nuclear crap in the 80s. Australia has little room to even squeak in protest at the US until we get our subs.
