If being an unaligned country with a large army is no deterrent to Putin's ambitions is it time for ROI to join Nato?
"Quite a lot"
"Gameplaying"
You're a low-knowledge, low-resolution poster in rapture to an edgelord anti-everything doctrine. Which includes, but is not limited to opposing NATO tooth-and-nail (but you can't coherently explain why).
Very true.
There is a huge dollop of doctrinal adherence ingrained in that poster.
Ah back to the invective...I wonder why?
P.S. I haven't opposed NATO, we have not been asked to vote on it. The people who oppose joining NATO are those who can, but haven't - the Irish government.
Ahh, I see it now. The more insane your arguments against NATO are, the more it will appear the rational thing to do to join NATO. You are a closet supporter of NATO.
You setting up a misrepresentation again to have a rant?
The Irish government can join NATO, but haven't. Your beef should be with them.
Not sure if you read it or not?

There are quite a few non NATO members in there, including Ireland.
Lol, Francie in full retreat now. Now claiming he never in fact opposed NATO.
NATO now, in Francie world, is neither good nor bad. Except that it's bad, but good because it defends the Baltic 3. But actually they defend themselves. So NATO bad, because "gameplaying".
The cosmic dance continues. Wild ride this.
Hope for Francie's sake An Phoblacht have an op-ed on NATO in their latest issue so he'll know what to think next.
I never opposed joining NATO because there has never been a vote on it, same as you never supported it.
You really need to understand what is being said.
Lol, so you have no opinion at all despite you sitting here in your smoking jacket the entire thread opposing NATO? It appears you want the world East of Ireland's Eye and West of Dún Aengus to cease to exist so that you don't have to have you're bizzare doublethink exposed for all to see.
You are are a unicorn Francie. Truly a museum piece.
I do have an opinion and if there is a vote then I will oppose membership.
I merely stated I have never had that opportunity and neither have you and made the point that the Irish government are keeping us out of NATO, nobody else.
What is wrong with your ability to digest what is being said?
Come back to me when you are prepared to respect differing opinions to your own.
Eh, No!
You have made a great show of yourself.
Anti - vaxers also wanted their opinions to be respected. That is the type of stuff you are stooping to now because you are being found out.
You apparently need the Irish government to tell you you're allowed to have an opinion.
The latest: Francie is not opposed to NATO, not yet. When the Government tells him he can start thinking, he reckons he'll be opposed. Because NATO is bad. But that's not his opinion. Because he doesn't have one. Yet.
WTF is wrong with you?
Of course I 'have made a show of myself' in the opinion of somebody who supports joining NATO. Shock of the year there from mark! 😁
"The best we got"
Eh, no. How about we the Irish people decide what is best for us. Not the Brits and the Chinese or the Russians.
And your love for the UN is a load of shite because you admitted earlier in the thread that you would be OK to go against the entire UN and invade the North to help out some Nationalists... regardless if the UN told us not to do so. UN mandates don't mean damn to you when it suits.
You try very badly to appear to be a pacifist on one had yet a unilateral warmonger on the other when it comes to the Brits. You are so tied up in Knots you need a decent Chiropracter to help you out
It makes as much sense as cold fart.
But but but... its "the BeStWeGoT!"*
*Runs off and says we should have invaded the North in 1969 regardless what the UN thinks....
Makes senses?
Nope!
..
Who is in on the heist here Francie?
Are Sweden?
Are Finland?
Are Iceland?
You don't have any proof of this conspiracy theory of yours, do you?
The Irish people have decided on the Triple Lock mark and on their behalf the government is not going to change it.
Who is the democrat again?
Been truly found out the past few days.
Mask.Slip and all that.
Joint lol. when will we be sending troops to help them out ? You mean Joint one way yes.
It's the Montenegrins, they're the real villian of the piece. The original Saucer People and a keystone in the NATO / big-pharma vax and conflict gameplaying boondoggle.
Magic nukes with no nuclear fallout. Wow
...
This is the kinda stuff the sensationalists fall for. Can't see that they are being trolled.
I'd always follow the money in these things. Who loses most if conflict ends?
Take your time woirking it out.
I haven't opposed NATO, we have not been asked to vote on it.
So after being completely found out, you have no real opinion on NATO, regardless of your tooth and nail defence for the Irish Status Quo and your mumblings and gibberish about NATO and their endgames and stating that NATO and Putin are as bad as each other.
Christ. You don't have a leg to stand on.
Already clarified mark. Yurt misunderstood again.
P.S. I actually DIDN'T say Putin and NATO are as bad one another I very clearly stated that Putin was worse.
You have made a show of yourself because its clear to all, you don't have a notion on what you are talking about. Its all made up guff on a whim.
You are a poster with very little knowledge of the facts. That much is clear.
