If boards was located in Russia. Would a thread like this be allowed? I mean, turn the tables and the pro Russia but living in Ireland now become pro Euro/NATO/USA but they’re living in Russia.
Whatever your job do it to the best of your ability.
Explosives not your strong point either I see, Burgerface.....they need something to react to, something more solid than an air filled ball. Anyone in that room ,child or adult will have been very lucky to survive uninjured. Maybe different kindergarten in your time......
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Interesting situation in Belarus ,we will deploy nuclear weapons or super nuclear weapons

Aye dead on hi!
What concessions are Russia prepared to make?
What concessions would Russia be prepared to make?
You can thank Putin for higher defence budgets all over Europe as well and probably more future members in NATO.
And since you trust nobody,maybe you should take a trip to South Ossetia in Georgia and Donbass in Ukraine and see it with your own eyes.
None ,they want to keep their military , nukes and status quo ,
They want NATO and American Forces completely removed from Europe ,I think they might discuss missles but not until Nato and America is gone ,so what he means when he rolls into Berlin with tanks he might sit down
I'm so tired and cynical of the whole lot of them that if it was revealed that Biden and Putin have conspired to create this tension to boost global weapons sales, and to deflect from domestic issues, I would not be surprised one bit. Since both countries have fook all regard for their own military veterans, I doubt they give a hoot about Ukrainians.
Thats highly unlikely,since its not only US involved in Ukraine,NATO is 30 countries,i doubt countries like Norway,Denmark and Montenegro would really care as along as they are protected against Russia,that happens to be the main goal of NATO at present.
Also UK and Poland just signed an security pact with Ukraine.
Seems the Dutch are throwing their hat in the ring. The Dutch known for their very anti Russian stances....
It's got little on nothing to do with global weapons sales , they don't need a war for that , countries are already modernising their militaries not just in Europe but globally ,
Ukraine bought 125 million worth of anti armour missles , but have spend billions over the last 8 years on defense ,due to the threat from putin and the occupation of their country ,
America is already making hundreds billions selling the F35 to countries , other countries are investing in other platforms and developing others,and this is during peace time ,
Any excuse to throw Bidens name in , wonder did you prefer trump?
@[Deleted User] Understood. I meant it as an example of how deep my cynicism is when it comes to the 'great powers' (so-called). No malfeasance or deception is beyond them. And again, Ireland has to navigate a world in which our very existence is threatened by beligerant, militaristic countries that quite frankly --and I know this runs counter to our collective sense of Ireland's 'place' in the world-- are playing catch up with us, culturally speaking. I wish they would hurry up.
I 100% agree with you that Russia are not prepared to make any concessions at all.
But I don't see any acknowledgement of that from any of the pro-Russia propagandists.
I don't play stupid Democrat/Republican games. Put me down as a Mark Twainite:
St. Patrick had no politics; his sympathies lay with the right--that was politics enough. When he came across a reptile, he forgot to inquire whether he was a Democrat or a Republican, but simply exalted his staff and "let him have it."
More classic Russian style propaganda here.
"I'm so tired and cynical of the whole lot of them." Deliberately try and blur everything in order to obscure the actual issue, which is very easy to understand.
The issue is that the mafia state of Russia is threatening to expand its war of aggression against a peaceful neighbour which does not want to live under its jackboot.
That's a real stretch @Snooker Loopy although I understand that any deviation from orthodoxy is problematic for dualistic thinkers everywhere.
Some Dylan might help:
Looked behind the sink, behind the chair
I was lookin' for them Reds everywhere
I looked way up my chimney hole
Looked deep down inside my toilet bowl
They got away...
But yet your so called skepticism is geared towards Biden doing this and Biden doing that,
When this situation was there before and Will likely still be there after Biden , but the reason we're having this discussion and all the previous discussions over the last 8 + years of Ukraine thread is putin , not Biden ,not Obama ,not bush ,not putin nobody else
A meaningless post with no attempt to engage on the subject and the facts.
My skepticism very real. If it's geared more toward Biden/US actions that is because the US is what I know and Americans are people I care about. I think Americans deserve a fairer set of choices in life (and a fairer society in general) and the MIC is a major part of the problem. (To say nothing of the blood and treasure lost. And that's before we even get into the rights and wrongs of various foreign escapades.)
Do I believe the Russian state victimizes its people with its own MIC? Absolutely. Can the Russian state be accused of gangsterism? Yes.
But we could round and round for ever trying to claim a higher moral ground for one MIC over another and all we would be doing is digging a hole.
That was a response to your suggestion I am sort of Russian propagandist. I treated it with the contempt it deserved. Did you enjoy the song? It's crazy how paranoid some political types get isn't it? I think Talkin' John Birch Paranoid Blues captures that over excited neurotic state of mind really well.
Russian propagandists deserve nothing but contempt.
Correct. All propagandists for the world's MICs deserve contempt.
Only one of us is propagandising for a military industrial complex intent on destroying another country, and it isn't me.
Separatists now claiming an attack on chemical storage. Form Ukrainian sabatours... Who used tracer rounds.... And also recorded their attempts at sabatage.
Amateur hour over in the South its seems. The intelligence is spot on Russia.
The "leader" of the DPR has announced that all women, children and elderly are being moved to Russia.
They are setting the scene for the false flag and the false pretext for war.
Ah, here. Now you're being silly. There isn't an MIC on the face of the earth that I support. They are inherently corrupt and unethical. That said, I'm sure nobody wants the thread to degenerate any further. This is the kind of bickering I was giving out about earlier, but it seems impolite not to reply when I catch a reply. Most of all, I do not want to put off snooker by your Quixote-like antics, for I too am snooker loopy. Up the Republic! :)
Imagine the regime in Belarus who faked a terrorist plot on a Ryanair plane in order to force it to land, could potentially host nuclear weapons right on the doorstep of Western Europe.
But please spare a thought for poor old Russia who feel threatened by NATO.
The rhetoric coming from Lukashenko lately has been terrifying. Quite obviously with the full backing of Putin, who has used the same murderous rhetoric himself.
