though his GDP is bigger than a few of Natos members?
what exactly do you want? most here and around the world would agree the US has committed all sorts of heinous **** around the world. do you want people to say it or something? would that make you feel better about some aspect of this current atrocity somehow? the Ukraine atrocity is happening right now. next time the US invades a country we'll talk about that. or do you want every single condemnation of russia to start with "of course the US did something bad in the past too". what exactly is the point of that?
The head of the Russian Space Agency, Roscosmos, has tweeted about deorbiting the International Space Station over the US or Europe in response to the sanctions. These lads are nuts!!
Attention that's all.
Ignore
The Colombians would probably object to sanctions on him.......🤣
They cant suckerpunch old men or soverign states together anymore
Without outside military intervention in Ukraine, Russia can do what it likes unfortunately. They got away with annexing Crimea and that emboldened Putin. Putin seems to long for the days of the Soviet Union. I'm assuming if he moves on say Latvia then there would be military intervention? To leave Ukraine to the mercy of Putin because it's not in NATO does not reflect well on the world we live in.
If Britain attacked Ireland because we're not in NATO we're screwed?
truism if ever there was one, but he is a scu$bag just like putin so hopefully they both of them meet their makers
Wrong thread.
Yes and use it as an excuse to invade Ukraine even more worrying.
Looks like Putin have a hard time forgetting the past
Where this thing of Putin having a problem with Jews coming from?
Yes but now Putin loots his own people instead
Any Irish leftist or right winger defending Putin is the epitome of what Yuri Bezmenov would call a Useful Idiot.
You complain about the “Evil” West safe and secure in your nice democratic Western World. But if you were in Russia under the thumb of Putin, you’d likely be the first up against the wall for complaining vocally about his regime.
Putinbots?
Genuine question how do you think this is going to work exactly ,how do you think 42 million Ukrainians are going to be ruled by putin ,
Are we going to see another 110% of the population of Ukraine voting for a Russian leader .
Gas chambers , death camps????
Wanna have a laugh?

One says Putin is a scumbag, the other says Putin is a hero. You know what tho? The older I get, the more I realise this world is mad. There is no 'right' or 'wrong' in this world. It's all a bunch of 7.5 billion people thinking they are all right... the other is 'wrong'
I wonder what life is like on the ISS today?
Right, but if you're interested in a more in depth discussion on the deeper issues involved, then you need to be able to discuss every aspect of it. Even the parts you don't like or agree with. That's called a real discussion.
When you ban certain aspects that you don't like, you're not having a full discussion on the topic.
I don't always agree with people like Boyd Barrett or Wallace, but I have no desire to stop them expressing their opinion fully on a topic. As that is the nature of healthy debate. Even if some of their opinions might be annoying etc.
When you ban any talk of America, for example, in a discussion about Russia and NATO, then you are preventing a full discussion from taking place on the topic. You're just discussing the parts you prefer talking about.
It's an echo chamber effectively.
no idea how true this is, take with the usual pinch of salt:
Hopefully true.
You my friend have succumbed to the dreaded 'both sides' syndrome.
It's an illusion created by overthinking a situation. Often but not always associated with a mature age.
Sometimes you just have to stand up and say no, this is wrong and it should not be allowed to happen.
What can we read into the Dow Jones and Nasdaq making a swift recovery this evening? Investors thinking this will blow over soon??
One is a privatly owned news channel in the US,the other is a state sponsored channel in Russia with ties to Kremlin.
It clearly will.
Nato has decided that Ukraine is not worth going to war about.
There won't be a seismic, global military reaction.
So, things can move on - steadily, back to 'normal'.
I wonder when Putin's closest associates can't go on holidays, access funds or their businesses borrow money that might give them pause for thought? No leader is untouchable.
There isn’t enough variations of the word “pr1ck” in the English language to describe him and them other PBP arseholes and time after time people vote these cretins and the likes of Mick Wallace in to their positions.
Had a bit of personal dealings with mr Boyd Barrett and slimy lying cretin doesn’t even come close enough.
Classic both sides subterfuge. Used with great effect by the Tories in parliament do deflect away from robbing the tax payers blind the last two years.
Are ya always this gullible or wha.
But they have removed Putins bogey man, over 200 protests in Russia today with more and bigger ones to come ,
putin has gone in to remove Nazis that don't exist and a country of 42 million led by a Jew .
This isn't playing out how putin hoped
Regardless of numbers,i dont think the invasion is going as smooth as Putin wanted
Just a reminder.
Fcuk. Putin.
