Russia-Ukraine War (continuing)

Doesn't have to be a revolution, an unfortunate weapons malfunction around Trump would be a good start.

"Whoops, didn't know that was loaded, I am so clumsy, boy is my face red..."

Iran is an enemy of Ukraine. They made the first move by providing weapons to kill Ukrainians. Why would we be salty if Ukraine helped the other enemies of Iran protect it's airbases. It's not like Ukraine won't be getting anything in return to help it defeat Russia.

You wouldn't, you would end up with a command chain full of Hegseths and Patels.

”Russia v Ukraine is nothing to do with us.”

”Israel vs <whoever they attacking this week>” has nothing to do with us, yet it’s not stopping you opining in any number of parallel threads /s

And since Ireland was directly threatened and attacked and is suffering from consequences of Putin’s imperial war of conquest and colonialism it does relate to us

Russia v Ukraine is nothing to do with us.

Support Ukrainian refugees, yes.

I don't know where you're getting these "warm" relations from. Apart from some statement from Zelensky condemning Oct 7 or some silly conspiracy you've got rattling around in your head.

Zelensky = Putin = psychopath

Again I've no idea where you're getting this from? Putin is literally on stage live on TV admitting to stealing thousands of Ukrainian children from the occupied territories. Textbook genocide. I'd love to see anything remotely approaching that severity from Zelensky. It seems to me like you're just making things up. Like the link you posted earlier that didn't say what you said it did. Have we just moved on from that now?

Russia v Ukraine is nothing to do with us.

Israel vs Lebanon/Palestine is nothing to do with us.

Support Ukrainian refugees, yes.

You say this. But what you're advocating for(pulling aid from Ukraine) is undeniably the most surefire way to create 10's of millions more Ukrainian refugees. I'm really unsure how you don't see this. Do you think Putin will simply stop if Ukraine suddenly can't defend itself?

Support the war, no.

Rape excusing , victim blaming Bothsidesism. Nothing more.

Look I respect your opinion that it's nothing to do with us but most Irish like myself stand in unity with our European cousins. There are conflicts all over the world, many of which most Irish don't even know are happening because they genuinely don't care enough. But a war on the continent of Europe we certainly care about especially when it involves a colonial power looking to expand. We haven't forgotten the British empire that quickly.

There was also a hit in Crimea, another location I've forgotten and quite a few AD hit last night. Haed to keep track.

Anyone who places Zelensky

- a preforming artist turned politician who was democratically voted into power to tackle systemic Russian -inspired corruption and who was in power a wet week when Putin illegally invaded Ukraine,

- on the same level as a war mongering, media silencing, opposition murdering, democracy crushing, corruption enabling, war crime apologist, whose career is entirely based within the Soviet and Russian secret police apparatus , who has been in power for over a quarter of a century,

- does not deserve to be taken seriously and should count themselves lucky that this is a moderated discussion forum that doesn't permit personal abuse. Because if ever I saw a post that deserved it…

Congratulations on saving everyone a lot of time on this.

It’s good when a poster shows their real self so you know they actually support Putin but have to pretend there’s no difference between the president of an invaded country and the invaders president.

Whoever shared the Zelensky interview few days back

thank you!

I finally got chance to listen in full and wow considering English isn’t his first language he sure is a lot more articulate and thoughtful than certain other leaders
