  1. Instead of a "lame duck", we have the "cornered cat" scenario. Dangerous to be around...

  2. Wow, this is powerful! Wonderful how he is turning the problem around, instead of being disheartened by the obstacles, he is making a difference. The Ukrainians are teaching us so many powerful lessons... Slava Ukraine!

  3. God bless Turkey for delivering this vital tool to Ukraine. May they quickly get better politics & economy themselves.

  4. "Only Russians can effect change" "Provide truth to the Russian people, in the Russian language" Very true. There is not much we can do, but we can help in providing information to the Russians.

  5. Russia lost as many soldiers in one month as the US lost during a whole year in the heaviest fighting in Vietnam...

  6. Biden's speech was historic. Right up there with Reagan's "Pull Down This Wall" speech.

  7.  Анастасия Борисова  At least in Ukraine you don't go to jail for 15 years when you call a war, a war.

  8. Hopefully, this conclusion will shut politicians up who contemplate Ukraine ceding land for peace, and take away any reservations they still have about supplying the Ukrainians with whatever they need.

  9. Wolff was right in predicting that Dump will end in tears. Now there are the tears of the nation, and the world. But they will be comforted when the orange clown is put away. Trump (and all his criminal associates) will receive no such comfort.

  10. This might be one explanation of his behavior. Another, simpler one is greed. Donbass is a wealthy region, rich in resources he can steal. And even a third explanation is paranoia. Or even pure hate for the nations that dared to resist him. I doubt even he knows himself why he really is doing these things. The man is not sane.

  11. Angry enough to give them pies with "grandma's special ingredients", LOL! Which really isn't OK, but understandable seeing this.

  12.  @braddo7270  Morals? Boris Johnson?

  13. ​ @ianalan4367  We should not condemn individuals. But we can and should point out that an organization that presumes to call itself "christian" is not Christian at all, but operates on the principles of the flesh. And warn them for the dire consequences of following that organization. And I also believe we should denounce immoral leaders, like Trump, and make very clear that a Christian has no business supporting that.

  14. I fully agree we (NATO) need a presence in Ukraine. The current passive-aggresive stance is not acceptable, as Putin will interpret it as cowardice. Let put a security force in place around Lviv, right now!

  15. ​ @anacc3257  You're not a Christian if you are trying to prevent the spread of immorality through laws, hate and violence. Nor if you try to "preserve" faith. Faith is something that needs to act through Love. Any act that is not from Love is not an act in faith. And don't think what you describe is 'tough love'. Tough love is letting people experience the natural consequences of their actions for themselves, i.e. withdrawing your protection / care. It is NOT actively punishing them for their actions, or forcibly preventing them from doing wrong. God does not punish humanity because Jesus took the punishment for us. And we as humans should be very hesitant in punishing others. Judgement is Mine, saith the Lord. It is not ours to Judge, except for secular courts appointed by the proper authorities.

  16.  @pbodymathis  Trump is a foreshadow of the antichrist. Read the Book, the antichrist will have strong support from religious leaders, suckling at the teat of power--as we have seen religious leaders do with Trump. How come you are so afraid of democrats? They certainly are not satanists. I see more of the antichrist in republicans than in democrats. Reps lie far too much to be servants of Truth, much more than democrats. Many of the policies that Christ promotes are pretty far to the left, such as caring for your neighbor and for the poor...

  17. Probably more than a few have already found out it is not a good idea to mistreat men that are armed to the teeth...

  18. Well done, Ukrainians! The free world applauds you and your bravery, and we pressure our cowardly leaders to give you the weapons you need!

  19.  @rickz3543  > What a fatal mistake I don't see any mistake in what Malik says. I agree with him. And I follow Jesus. The church in the USA needs to realise how their support for this corrupt and evil leader taints their witness in the world, and even to their own children. Is it worth it, to support Trump and thus loose the respect of your children?

  20. I still have the highest regard for Mr Blair. His comments on both Ukraine and NI are excellent. If Bozo had listened to this man and done as he suggested from the start of the Brexit negotiations, Britain would not be in this absurd position. And the key problem is still that the clown is unwilling to take responsibility and do what needs to be done. As my PM would say, the NIP is a "chefsache", something that only can be solved by the Chief.

  22. ​ ThatFeel8080  > more of the Lord's work, not socialism You and your workers are extremely misguided. The Lord is not interested in your so called religious work while you are neglecting the plight of the poor. Ever read the parable of the goats and the sheep? No, I thought you hadn't. Go away from Me, I never knew you.

  23. ​ @KColes63  Exactly. That, and the way he treats women, and that he lies so much, and that he is fraudulent in his financial dealings, and that he does not pay back what he has loaned, and his vindictiveness against those who oppose him, and that he divorces so easily, etc. etc. All this was known in 2016.

  24. It is more apt to compare the GOP to the Nazi party directly. In the beginning, the NSDAP was not all-in with Hitler. But he took over and removed all opposition, made the NSDAP a vehicle for his grandeur, just like Trump has with the GOP. The GOP is doing more than just nothing. It is actively supporting him, like those senators and representatives that continue to reject the Biden win, and those that did not even allow to hear witnesses during the impeachment "trial".

  25. 1:50 Sorry, General, but the Kherson Oblast also includes parts on the east (south) bank of the Dnipro. Ukraine doesn't YET have all of that Oblast back under control.

  27. ​ @ReclinedPhysicist  There are a lot of ifs there. The biggest IF is whether Trump can run for President. He doesn't look too healthy. Or will he have been convicted for any of his numerous crimes? My personal bet is on the Georgia case, that looks the easiest to prove.

  29. Great point about the importance of logistics. Russian logistics only reach out 90km. NATO logistics can get to literally any spot on earth.

  30. @rom tn "Trump's military coup is on" Trump: "People dying to keep me in power. It is a risk I am willing to take". Seriously, the military won't oblige their soon to be ex-commander in mischief. Perhaps the extreme-right militia will be triggered, but the national guard can easily take them on.

  31. Republicans forget that the USA was made great by its immigrants...

  32. Impressive, how this beautiful man speaks truth with sincerity. Awesome.

  33. ​ @DrRestezi  Indeed! Both republicans and democrats have principles and idea's that are good, probably even inspired by Wisdom. We would do well not to demonize each other, but to listen, learn, and do the best we can. But Jesus is very much against the power hungry and corrupt. They do a lot to destroy this beautiful planet we have been given. The lust for money is the root of all evil.

  34. That is what Radko Mladic thought. He is now enjoying the hospitality of the Dutch prison system, for life. His boss Milosevic thought the same, though sadly he couldn't enjoy our hospitality for very long. It may take some time, but Putin's regime will fall. And then the reckoning will start. I don't think Putin will survive the regime change, but many of those who are ordering these war crimes will. And they will be found.

  35. As 12 (and counting) of Trump's lawyers are finding out...

  36. That has already happened. But there still is a single bump he needs to take: can he corrupt the electoral system. He has corrupted all other systems in the USA.

  37.  @rantalbott6963  I would be amazed if that Georgian official we have heard the recording off, is the only one that got a phone call from Trump. I guess there were many more.

  38. Excellent analysis. Every king had a "fool" who could speak truth to him, and Caesar had his servant whispering "Remember thou art mortal". Seems like Putin wasn't as wise. Now it is up to the world leaders to tell him this, until he understands what the end-play for Ukraine will be like.

  39. We see this even in non-Russian, so called "free" countries, where people vote based on their "tribe" instead of the policies proposed by the various politicians. Regardless of how untrustworthy their "tribe" is or how often they betrayed their voters. Case in point: the USA and UK. However the public opinion in both these countries has received a LARGE amount of direction from Putin himself.

  40. The problem is not a lack of reason but a lack of trust. You will not accept the arguments of someone you do not trust, unless you are an exceptionally secure person. Which is why Putin and his disciples (Trump, Johnson, MTG, etc, etc) work very hard to undermine trust in fellow man, a trick they share with cult leaders.

  41.  @briansilver3412  Good one! In Dutch we have a saying about cats in a corner doing unexpected & destructive things, but I guess it doesn't translate...

  42. The Russians will need to be careful with this. In the past, we didn't immediately shoot Russian planes that illegally entered our airspace down. It was a bit of a game. However, that will probably change due to the Russian rhetoric threatening NATO countries.

  43. The journalist thinks she is smarter than she is. She talks too much.

  44. The first thing Trump did when he was president, in his inaugural speech, was to dedicate the nation to selfishness and greed. That was a VERY evil thing to do. He cursed the nation by doing that. Something that in itself will take a generation to overcome. And I don't use those words lightly. I believe God was crying when he did that, deeply grieved. I agree with Rev. Schenck that people who support Trump are in danger of losing their salvation, or that it demonstrates that they are not saved, see e.g. Mt 25:31-46 ( the parable of the sheep and the goats).

  45. The general is quick to shift the responsibility to the European nations. He does not take into account that those European nations have not been blessed with sufficient natural resources to operate their economies (especially fossil fuels), and are already suffering a great cost from the sanctions they imposed on Russia. The US is the only country that can supply arms to Ukraine with complete impunity and in large quantities on short notice. Still, some European nations do start to supply heavy arms to Ukraine.

  46. Doubling the land border with Russia? I don't think NATO is worried about that.

  47. Jesus said "Give unto Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's", and "My Kingdom is not of this world, ... otherwise my disciples would fight". With those words, He instituted the separation of Church and State. He also made very clear that this separation will remain in place until He comes again.

  48. Putin can threaten with nukes all he likes. He will not use them, because no-one would obey him if he tried.

  49. Right now, America is a very, very sick country. There is MUCH more wrong with it than just the Republican party.

  50. ​ @marilynwillett804  Explaining the principles of right and wrong, is NOT judging someone. Explaining why some behavior is wrong is absolutely necessary in this age, where there are many wolves dressed as sheep. They need to be called out. If the watchmen sleep, who would sound the alarm? And if there ever was a time to sound the alarm in modern history, it is now, when religion is being used to justify outright fascism.
