Russia-Ukraine War

Fascinating how the people doing most crying about everybody else being so easily offended these days are getting offended and losing what little remains of their (woke mind virus infected?) braincells of on pointless manufactured outrage

But now I digress from the topic, so back on the rail

Tuareg fighters have sent a message to Ukraine:

Message to Ukrainian brothers Dear Ukrainian brothers, We, the armed forces of the CSP-DPA, want to express our solidarity with your fight against Russian criminals. We have captured a significant number of Wagner's mercenaries and would like to hand over these captives to you as a sign of support and solidarity. This gesture is intended to help you in your fight for justice and freedom. We hope that this will contribute to the strengthening of our ties and our joint victory. With all our support, the CSP-DPA Armed Forces

Not going well for the Russians today

Polish not mincing their words

Bingo

My view is that Ukraine sided with the USA following the 2014 coup/ revolution and armed with US weapons despite Obama's warnings and that was not a smart move. Like Ireland they had a problem with ultra nationalism and it seems according to OSCE reports they kicked things off in Donbas and then the Russian's responded.

As Obama said, if you arm them they'll think they can beat the Russian's.

It hasn't worked out for Ukraine and it appears hundreds of thousands have died. I don't know who is worse the Ukraine regime or the Russian one. As I have said, i think they should have a ceasefire. I see zero chance of victory for Ukraine without going nuclear.

I find westerns leaders incapable of diplomacy and feel very sorry for ordinary people in Ukraine. I had a Ukranian neighbour who was nice and assume most Ukrainians are nice too.

Hopefully I've expressed my views in a palatable and correct manner.

There is no Ukrainian "Regime"🙄

You're not sure which government is worse? Pretty simple really, it's the ones who invaded Ukraine and is happily committing genocide. I hope you enjoyed playing up another wall of propaganda though.

Bullcrap! I happen to know people who worked in Donbass when Putin sent Igor Strelkin /Girkin in with his untagged Russian military with orders to attack ethnic Russians and start the war. Putin manufactured the separatist movement, up to that time, there was not any separatist Russia /Ukrainian divide. They got on fine with each other. And now, this minute, same thing in Finland…very same Putin SOP, you have the Russian speaking extremely small minority protesting and demanding that Finland re open the border to facilitate Russian speakers access to Russia. They have lodged an official complaint with the EU, Putin did the same thing in Georgia, he even gave out Russian Passports to jack up the Nrs of "Russians" living in the region or outside it, so he could justify attacking Georgia to "Protect " the ethnic Russians. Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin is as evil a bastard as ever walked the face of this earth. When he dies, you will see a lot of current trouble spots worldwide becoming peaceful.

Except for the fact that its warcrime and genocide excusing horseshite. I too, can express nicely in nice flowery language why an entire nation should be eradicated. Doesn't make what I'm saying any less stupid or horrifying. I can even drag my imaginary neighbour into the discussion who is lovely and agrees with me.

You should, genuinely, be absolutely f***ing ashamed of yourself. Disgusting. Now go on. Tell me how rude I am and disappear for a few more weeks.

To correct the obvious:

1. There was no coup in Ukraine.
2. In the 2014 election the far right got single digits (lower than many European countries)
3. Russia proxy invaded Eastern Ukraine in 2014 (after annexing Crimea)

It hasn't "worked out" for Ukraine? This isn't some territorial spat. Putin launched a full-scale invasion in Feb 2022 to take the entire country as part of his imperialist vision. No one wants to invade nuclear armed Russia.

Unable to see the difference between a democratic country in Europe and the dictatorship that is attempting to invade it? It should be obvious.

Incapable of diplomacy? For years Europe has appeased and attempted diplomacy with Putin while he has conducted only increasing hybrid warfare against the continent, poisoned individuals on European soil with WMD, annexed territory, launched a proxy invasion, killed and attempted to kill domestic and foreign politicians.

»Hopefully I've expressed my views in a palatable and correct manner.

You've presented a familiar collection of falsehoods and distortions designed to shift blame away from Putin

There are a huge range of quality sources, resources and tools available online (in-depth analysis and reports, OSINT, online encyclopedias, chatgpt, etc) where you can not just find real information but corroborate it. There's really no excuse.

There was no coup. Thats a Russian lie.

Anybody who at this stage doesnt know is worse between Russia who illegally invaded Ukraine and Ukraine the victims is just putting forward a bad faith argument or is entierely duped by Russia lies.

Multiple posters have engaged with your previous posts.

You run away from the posts explaining this to you, don't engage with the points or questions put to you, disappear then return with more feigned ignorance or feigned playing the victim. Rinse and repeat. Previous posts gone into a memory hole.

Those are not the actions of someone genuinely here to discuss and open to information from other posters.

The views you have expressed remarkably align with Russian social media propaganda cues. W

But hey every time you hit and run with these posts about a half dozen posts appear detailing how Russia is in the wrong, their invasion is illegal as is how they fight the war with war crimes and atrocities. How they employ Nazi mercenary scum to do their dirty work - They are called Wagner group. Don't pretend you don't know any of the above or it hasnt already been put to you on the thread - you aren't fooling anyone.

Keep up the good work.

Bit of a broad statement there chief - "Most people have zero interest".

Perhaps in your social circles there may not be must interest but certainly in mine and many others not just here but world wide the Olympics garners huge interest, especially the athletics phase which starts in the next few days.

Complaints were lodged and ignored by French and IOC as most of these “neutral” Russian athletes have publicly posted on social media and Russian tv in support of war, often smiling while at sporting events with the Zwastika in the background

Was discussed here couple days ago

Anyways Russian summer offensive has officially failed, probably be discussed in depth on todays podcast episode

How dare Ukraine for wanting to be... Ukraine.
