Biden upping the ante again with more troop deployment to Eastern Europe...those poll numbers really are worrying him. He's ignoring the calls for calm even from within the Pentagon never mind Ukraine, but JB doing whatever he likes in the true traditions of US imperialism.
You're dismissing my assumption while making an assumption about me! Hilarious!
You solely post about countries that you have 'personal experience' of? Seriously, you've no opinion on events in countries you've no direct 'personal experience', how utterly, utterly bizarre!
I'll respond to your longer post at a later point.
I don't troll here or anywhere else, I haven't seen a single post pick apart anything yet, I think you're allowing your bias cloud your judgement.
Just because you have no experience or connections to Nth Korea, don't assume everyone is the same. As for the UN Countrys, I've never claimed to have been in all of them, have you? I post about the Countrys that I have personal experience of. Now see my post 1742, that should cover the rest of your post.
(1) The discussion at that point was about the pro's and con's of dropping atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The scenes of carnage shown in that movie during attacks on the aptly named Hacksaw Ridge ( which were repeated every step of the way, on every island the US had to take on their way to Japan.) were beyond horrific, but would go a long way justify the US use of the A bombs. Now as you have not or will not see it, can only mean that you can't or don't want to discuss it as showed very good arguments as to why the A bomb was used.
(2) More twisting MFPM style, I have not accepted your views on anything, and not planning to either, given your standards. I've never , ever said that you had to actually be in a place to comment on it, but that if you were there, you would be more knowledgeable about it. I've already mentioned that in several locations that I was in and certain events took place, what I witnessed and what was reported were two different thing's. But in the "admitting" section, I'm glad that you admit that some one actually present could offer a perspective that the those non-present could not. When you are in a neutral position as I was, then you base your opinion on your personal experience's ( and not on what you read or see on TV. ) Its with local people, on the ground, live. And that's actually living in the Country, and not visiting for a day or two for a conference, or ZOOM calling friends or colleagues anywhere around the world, but I've done that too same as anyone can ( ask your mate patnor1011, he's a big fan of yours No? but highly critical of anyone who claims to be an expert after a foreign holiday and reading or seeing news articles on TV, internet etc.) ) Another advantage truth over fiction / propaganda etc. From my own experiences I could write pages on this. As for the other posters you mention, I'd strongly recommend you directing your comments to them, I'm not your proxy
(3 ) Why do you keep asking a question that I have answered already several times over MFPM?. For the last time. here it is again: The Ukraine invasion by Russia began in 2014, and its still ongoing, and I can prove it, because several of my friends have been killed. End of. Now MFPM, do not ask me this question again.
They use hot tents , heavy duty tents with small to large wood or fuel burning stoves for cooking and heating ,they can be pretty comfortable even in silly minus conditions ,and the majority of the Russian military are not known for having their creature comforts ,
They could easily stay for long periods but the financial cost for keeping 100,000 + deployed ,fed , medical ,
It all adds up ,if Nato sit putin out it's Putin who will either be forced to invade ukraine or he's going to be forced to withdraw with zero gains
Your arguements are getting picked apart on here and yet your still banging that drum I can only assume you are trolling.
Apologies for the confusion, Felix relates to a conversation I was having with MFPM about Russia, and his knowledge of it. So any Russian or anyone with a smidgen of Russian History would know straight away which Russian Felix I was talking about. He was a monster, and he made many bones, and the music that went with it, from every form of torture you could think of. Google Iron Felix for more info.
I wonder how long they can feasibly keep that large a group living in those temporary conditions for. It must be particularly difficult right now with the temperatures.
Tents and temporary structures I believe
Yes Elmer, its called GCHQ , and the whole world knows about it, ( if I remember it has been mentioned several times in the 007 movies , which leads me to think that its not the real intelligence centre......now that would really be a state secret., and buried deep under a mountain some where in the UK.) The post I was commenting on was its Russian counter part, or the Russian hacking industry.
Oh the innocence!
I’ll give you a little hint - there’s a very large circular building in Cheltenham.
Does anyone know, are those 100,000+ Russian troops massed at the Ukrainian border sleeping in tents?
No he dose not. But he gives them free reign to operate with in Russia. They target other governments networks for him and in return he allows them to attract commercial targets that they can extract money from.
No but they did take critical infrastructure off line that could have been deadly to our citizens.
Putin is my friend he told me he didn't do it
Of course, Putin wants all the information about Paddy Murphy from Carrick on Shannon who’s been waiting for a hip replacement for 25 years.
You honestly think hacking gangs in Russia target international organisations without Putin's direction? Come on now.
Great post, not that it will make a difference to some of the people on here who believe the only propaganda that exists is Russian.
Reports of blood being moved to Russian army positions which is something you do just before a large attack.
Thats true,on US forums as well ,and even here,they use every opportunity to batter Biden and Trump,and US as a whole as well,Ukraine being invaded seems like its being ignored completely.
And US being “invaded” by immigrants seems to be top priority before any invasion of Ukraine
It could be argued the Euro Finals in 2014 in Poland and the Ukraine really pressed and impressed on Ukraine what the EU was doing for Poland in terms of advancing prosperity.
This thread is literred with those that are simply anti EU and use that as a crux to batter Ukraines own decisions of who and how they trade. Its Ukraines choice who they deal with as much as it was the UKs choice what they did. Even if it was the stupidest 'trade' decision available.
Freedom of choice.... Its bizarre that people think Putin should have free reign to make decisions all by himself.
The F117 shootdown must be what they use as bedtime story in Serbia
I think a large part of the reason the Russia propagandists hate NATO so much is because NATO put a stop to the Serbs' genocide of the Kosovars in 1999.
The Russians and the Serbs are forever allies and Russia lovers don't like it when the Serbs don't get their way.
Even when that "getting their way" meant genocide.
This is when you know someone has been completely bought and sold by US led propaganda.
If some criminal entity in the US or Europe was hacking into things and causing havoc, well that's exactly what would be reported. Ask yourself how often have you ever heard of large criminal entities like the mafia in America being directly linked to whitehouse actions around the world?
Despite the fact that we know America is one of the most corrupt nations on earth, from business all the way up to their politics. You heard nothing about Russian collusion in the whitehouse, until they elected a president that the press didn't approve of. So their president is only dirty if and when they decide to report it as such.
Criminal elements in Russia are hacking into important institutions, and the western press just assume that they have a direct line to the Kremlin. Why? Because it suits them to play that narrative. No evidence needed, because they know most unthinking western people will just assume it must be true.
These strange people in the east must automatically be less trustworthy, right? And people in the west must automatically be holier than thou, right? It's actually unabashed racism, which people in the west are quite happy to propagate.
And you wonder why the likes of Russia permanently have their defenses up against America and the west? lol
Well lads, another day dawns and no invasion...it's as if there isn't going to be one...time will tell. I mean could all the lads here with travel experience in EE and Russia be misreading the situation, surely not given their self professed greater knowledge than the rest of us? 😉
You had done so well in your last post, now you're back with this nonsense. I've never lived in those countries, but as you acknowledged earlier that's not a prerequisite to have an opinion. The logic of this line of argument by you and others is so utterly bizarre...there are IIRC 180+ nations that make up the UN and unless one has 'lived' in them their opinion on those countries is somehow less valid than someone who spent a year in a place. One of your like-minded posters mentioned North Korea earlier fairly sure he/she hasn't been there, funny enough he wasn't challenged about that...
What?
You clearly don't understand the concept of discussion send debate, I have mentioned US (you can't even get that right) imperialism because its relevant to the discussion irrespective of how much deflection you want to engage in. Iraq was used a couple of times to dispel the myth of the benign influene of the US ...do keep up!
OK my bad re Clint Eastwood, it's worse it was Mel Gibson. Anyway, why would I research it, you introduced the obligation is on you to spell out it's relevance to your argument, which you still haven't do so why you'd expect me to articulate it for you is beyond me.
2. Well thankfully you've exhibited some acceptance that if someone hasn't been to a place or experienced an event they can still have an opinion based on research, reading etc....it's a pity some of your like-minded posters wouldn't adopt your approach. Of course of someone actually was present during events they can offer a perspective that others couldn't but that's also open to a subjective bias, is it not?
3. If the invasion is 'ongoing' why does Blinken, Biden Truss etc keep saying it's imminent?
Oh I think it was clear exactly what he was saying, interesting when asked for sources he scarpered.
