Clearly we need to listen more to Vidkun Orban.

The mayor of Novokuznetsk created a “women’s battalion” of personal subordination due to the shortage of public transport drivers By the way, the local carrier, due to a lack of parts, engaged in “auto cannibalism”
Womens auxillary army basically called to deal with driver shortages due to the men sent off to die in Ukraine. Bus company now is raiding scrap yards to deal with parts shortages.
Well yes but he had to be nice because he wanted to get Indian fighters released from the Russian army, which he did. Realpolitik.
To hell with Modi, he nailed his colors to the mast when he gave Putin a big bear hug the very day russia slammed hypersonic missiles into the childrens hospital in Kyiv.
I dont know if indian is still in receipt of international financial aid, if they are, cut it off.
Any country with a space program and nuclear weapons program dont need extra funding, especially from any western countries
I'm not sure I believe the story about it being a russian that leaked the idenities but I hope these animals are running scared now
Doesn't matter when Trumpy does it. No one has any expectation that he knows what he's talking about. Knowing what he's talking about is what Biden's all about.
Its about power and influence.
Would the house of saud be standing without the US?
Woman's rights in US client states aren't compatible either.
I always hear the comparison between the US and Russia etc...
Seeing as how, without the US, allies would have lost WW2 and WW1, how much bigger (landmass) is the US now compared to the turn of the last century? They have been involved in dozens and dozens of conflicts, like Russia, but their reasons are vastly different.
Don't compare invading or going to war (even under flaky reasons) with a land grab or annexing.
Mental gymnastics and tenuous reaches into the past aside, Biden isn't supporting Putin's invasion, on the contrary. Some other leaders are supporting Russia though.
A joy to see. I especially love the trademark hard chaw slouch and the slow-motion foot tap. And the attempt at a poker face. He was raging.
Da, da, tovaritch, we will see. How he wishes he could issue orders to one of his KGB bozos to carry out a bit of the old defenestration.
The US had zero problem encouraging Putin to flex mussle after 9/11. Putin at Crawford ranch is an image many would prefer to forget.
Plus up until Obama Putin even talked of a strategic alliance with NATO.
Both Russia and the US are societies that believe they can invade other countries against international law.
Unlike other US presidents, Trump has threatened to pull out of NATO, and he says a lot of things. Regardless of what happens or doesn't happen in the US, the war will continue entirely due to Putin (and his enablers)
I wouldn't care to be fair but when you have negative stuff being blasted in the TV stations and online about him then it's an issue. As that will just seep into people's brains on the run up to the election and if you have people in the democratic party calling into question Biden and maybe he should step aside then people will be thinking why should I vote for him. It's more I don't want to see that clown Trump in especially if it ends up if he does win that it helps Russia and hinders Ukraine greatly.
Yes the US weapons industry will do well in the fallout. If peace is bad for business then the US will pull out of NATO and other alliances it deems unprofitable.
I don't think it is a big deal if Biden is forgetful etc. There are plenty people around him to counter any mistakes. There are also all kinds of protocol if the president becomes unreliable. It is not a big deal.
If there were any doubts about just how murderous Putin is, or maybe people had forgotten previous assassinations carried out on Putins orders (Salisbury poisonings etc) that murder attempy will bring it all back into pubic focus again. Bad move, Vladimir, very bad move. There isn't an industrialist in the west who won't feel threatened now, and take proactive steps for safety, and not to mention a major attitude change regarding Putin.People dont like those who threaten them.
Ohhh for sure he's done tons but I suppose the difference is there saying Biden is your president and could be again and really laying into his age stating its this. Not that Trump is years younger and you have a lot of Democrats wanting Biden to drop out is the issue so it's causing massive issues for the Democrats on the run up to the election. It's just crap that Trump will keep slinging at Biden and if the US news stations are going to be picking mistakes like this out over next few months of Biden keeps doing well a lot of people who were not sure on Trump and Biden who to vote for seeing this on all the time will probably vote Trump sadly.
A few gaffs by Donny Maga
I think the worse thing is I say Trump's team are just telling Trump to sit back and relax Biden is doing the damage with all these gaffs on TV you don't need to be doing anything as the damage is being done by Biden and him saying the wrong thing. I just can't believe this is as good as America can get with their 2 candidates. Maybe something on the rules with age should be brought in as I know you have to be 35 to run for American president so maybe cut off age to run is 75 years old and you can only run once if elected at that age. The longer Biden holds on and makes more of these mistakes plays into Trumps hands and the worse thing is the best thing Biden could do for democracy is to drop out and he doesn't realise this to give someone younger a chance to beat Trump. The longer he waits to do this the harder it will be to beat Trump as you would like another candidate to have a decent amount of time to have a chance to get themselves out there to public.
Hey, that's not true. Their corruption is pretty good quality
when it comes to quality, ruSSian attitude is always half arsed. Themselves even have a saying for that.
Guess Ukraine will be getting their next order of ammunition at cost price or better then…
The sheer stupidity of the move, even if it hadn't been as bungled as so many other Russian military efforts, is staggering.
Given the number of Yes men that surround the russian president, I would not be surprised if its the first time in a long time, the russian president heard some truth.
Might yet happen like that.
I don't think Putin does very much these days and certainly doesn't go very far outside Moscow. He seems to have 2 doubles and like all things Russian, they're a bit shít. One of them has very puffy pronounced cheek bones and the other has a much more rounded face than the real thing. They're like the lookalikes who do a birthday greeting posing as your favourite celebrity, good for a laugh but you can tell its not them in seconds.
pretty much nail on the head…
I'm sure there's a few European immigrants also on here who are essentially second generation Russian…. ages 30's to 40's, parents grew up in the middle of the demise of the USSR, so had to deal with the crap fallout of growing up in East Germany or one of the many eastern bloc countries, listening to Mam and Dad pander to the "good oul days" of the USSR (yet moved to Ireland), and never experienced how crap life actually was during it.
Is that even the real Putin?…he's developing into a chinless wonder, going by that pic!
There might be a silver lining here in that it's such a terrible gaffe that they will have to get rid of him now and let someone competent run against Trump.
