@JoeSchmoer I doubt that Libya would agree with you, for one. Afghanistan. Iraq. Syria. Egypt. Vietnam. The US is a freaking wrecking ball.

@Kvint-kh12345 Which is exactly why you should pray for Putin's long life and health. Putin is a moderate and considered too soft by others in the Kremlin. Look at how long he took to rescue Donbas from the genocide being rained on them by the Ukraine government; there are many in the Russian government who would have moved much sooner.

@AydarBMSTU The West is arrogantly overconfident. They have already had to admit that they underestimated Russia's military tech. Westerners thought that Russia was stuck in the Soviet era and guess what? It isn't so.

@TKUA11 Do American excuses wipe out Ukrainian war crimes?

Why doesn't Biden talk to Putin? Because he wants this war. In 2013, Biden placed an "advisor" in the office of the president of Ukraine. He had his son Hunter installed in Ukraine with a "job" that pays hundreds of thousands of dollars and for which he isn't even remotely qualified. (cough, cough) In 2016, still the Obama era, Senators McCain and Graham went to Ukraine and told them to provoke Putin aggressively in order to start a war. Graham said, "And we'll back you with everything we've got." The Washington swamp wanted a war with Russia and Ukraine, and didn't stop until they got it. The video of the meeting was posted by Renaissance Horizon.

Do you think Ukraine has freedom of speech? They do not. Zelensky nationalized all of the media and outlawed 12 political parties. He imprisons anyone he can lay his hands on who doesn't agree 100% with the current administration.

Putin has been absolutely honest with the west. He doesn't say things he doesn't mean, and his actions have born that out over several decades. Western politicians, on the other hand, do nothing but lie. They'll say anything to win an election, then afterwards they do what they really want and the voters can pound sand. As for treaties and agreements, the United States in particular is notoriously undependable.

@Raelspark What part about not having a passport is hard for you to understand?

@dwn2573 Snowden worked in the American government and that's how he got his information. He doesn't work in the Russian government. Are you on medication?
