The fact that Russia thinks they can attack a country but can’t be attacked on their homeland is baffling
@Havana Syndrome US ground forces never entered the country. US aircraft did help enforce UN Resolution 1973; which was passed to prevent Gaddafi from massacring civilians.
@Aisha bint Abu Bakr, wtf are you saying!! stop using drugs dude, ur obviously under it
@Nic
This fight is not our fight. This is between Russia and Ukraine.
Don’t think that just because Russia is doing nothing NOW that our support for Ukraine will bite us later – especially if he loses
@1jx7wlt9 ic7rk3ld8
Like imagine if there was a girl, or guy, that we agreed would be free, and we agreed that none of us would engage with her/him for our friendship.
Then one day I sit with them at lunch – for whatever reason -and you rightfully take offense to that since it violated the treaty.
Does that mean that when she/he tries to get in bed with you, that this action we seriously were thinking about would that not cause a conflict between you and I?
True, Ukraine makes it’s own decisions but why are we even involved when it’s not our fight
Basically the entire Russian Nation held itself back from advancing from the cold war era because it was too over confident in it’s nuclear threats (global Terrorism) to see how the world was leaving it in the dust.
Russia also happens to be the one of the biggest players in trying to undermine renewables because it knows it’s entire economy would not last long in a world that bough only a minimum amount of fuel.
Yet this is Russia’s own fault for not wanting to advance further, it was too drunk on national markets held captive to it’s fuel supplies and thought this would last forever.
So when Ukraine started to become energy independent and an energy competitor that controlled the land upon which much of Russia’s fuel infrastructure flowed into the rest of Europe, the invasion became Russia’s last ditch effort to buy time while it stagnates further into the global energy revolution.
By this point I feel no sympathy for anyone who holds on to the past (regardless of their excuses), this is like a bronze age civilization falling because it was too stubborn to advance to the iron age.
Such changes take time and are no surprise, therefore people have no excuses for being too stubborn to change their ways.
PS: For average people such a change tends to be retirement/superannuation (investment based) and since they are unwilling to switch their investments they fear those investments losing value should renewables grow too quickly.
Putin: “Since Ukraine had no plans of ever invading Russia, They left us with no other choice but to invade Ukraine.”
Russian logic.
Slava Ukraini!!! 🇺🇦🇺🇲
@Angelo Pugliese still not one fact or any substance on how The trump administration was fascist. I will be forced to assume there aren’t any .
don’t be naive the democrats are going to lose the house and senate majority, not really surprising it’s a common thing . They have nothing to run on inflation is setting records , gas prices are double or more since Biden took office , crime is up , and they are providing no solutions . Just like you have in this conversation.
@Veterancon Read Jason Stanley’s best selling book; “How Fascism works”.
It’s about Trump and the Republifascist party.
All the answers to your questions are in there. Good day, I’m not going to continue a conversation with a Fascist.
@Angelo Pugliese so there is a whole book on the topic and you still don’t have one fact ? Seems like you should read that book as well .
@Veterancon All the facts are in Jason Stanley’s book, try reading it rather than asking me to give you a condensed version. Stop being lazy.
Look it up. Fascism is the politics of the “We vs them”. Hitler used it and Trump admitted his admiration of Adolf Hitler in public. Enjoy being a sheep 🐑 of Fascism.
@Semyon Budyonny that sounds like Vladimir Lenin. He was such an evil and bad man.
Huge Respect to Ukraine! What a Nation! What a Brave People! They say NO to Russian imperialism. The say NO to Russian Invaders. They say NO to Russian war criminals. They say NO to Russian baby killers. They say NO to Russian Terrorist. They fight for their Independence. They fight for FREEDOM. they fight for their friends and family. They fight for everyone who enjoys Freedom. Huge Respect. Ukraine will win. Slava Ukraine.
Well said
Hell yeah 😎 👏👏👏👏
Ukraine’s regime has a significant neo-nazi element that praises the Ukrainian leader Stepan Bandera who was a Nazi collaborator who murdered hundreds of thousands of Jews, Gypsies and Poles. This government which came from an illegal coup de’tat in 2014 attempt to eradicate the Russian language and culture, given that most of Eastern Ukraine is Russian speaking or ethnically Russian this led to the Donbass declaring its independence from Ukraine, and then this extremist Ukrainian regime bombed and shelled the Donbass for 8 yrs killing 14000 of their own citizens.
Go Russia 🇷🇺 🇷🇺🇷🇺💪🏻!!!! No more USA-Canada-UK-backed Ukrainian Nazi-war criminals and foreign mercenaries supported by the gringos and their European lackeys!!!! Finish them!!!! Send them to meet Bandera!!!!
yes to russian imperialism…. no to US imperialism
I’m in awe of the Ukrainians, what a strong , courageous and united nation. They are giving the little dictator a run for his money …. VIVA UKRAINE 🇺🇦!!!
💫💛🙏🏻💙💫
Continue support Ukraine! It will be a long haul over the winter, but we are getting there.
Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦
@Extirpo wow, the Fake Mews has really got you!
The Russian Ministry of Defense accused the British Navy of involvement in the undermining of the “Nord Streams”
The preparation of this terrorist attack and the training of Ukrainian military personnel were carried out under the guidance of British specialists located in the city of Ochakov, Mykolaiv region of Ukraine, the Russian Defense Ministry said. According to available information, the ministry said, representatives of this unit of the British Navy took part in the planning, provision and implementation of a terrorist attack in the Baltic Sea on September 26 to undermine the Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 gas pipelines.
@Extirpo why are we paying the tab when our economy is tanking everyday, is Ukraine going to bail us out after we win their war at the cost of our economy, I doubt it
@Т – И – З Are you a St Petersborg bot, or a human? If the latter sit down and think for yourself.
@Burt Reynolds If the west bails out because of a cold winter and expensive gass, it gives the green light to Russia an China for whatever they may wish. US will loose all credibility and influence around the world, thereby hitting US commers hard.
The price within 10-20 years will be gigantic.

Have you viewed the “1812 Overture” choreographed by the Ukraine army on youtube? It’s TERRIFIC!!! 😁
@Navam Sinna Stop chewing the ghat!!!
“If Russia stops fighting, there’s no more war. If Ukraine stops fighting, there’s no more Ukraine.” Idk who said it but nailed it
@David Macmillan no I’m saying it’s not out of the goodness of our hearts. Ukraine can be a slave to Russia or a slave to the USA. Either way Ukraine is done. I do mind my tax money going to a foreign war. A war that has nothing to do with Americans. We have plenty of problems at home, but out government doesn’t care. They’d rather give some Slav a rifle to kill other Slavs than help Americans. I spit on Ukraine.
@Donald Duck OK. Have fun doing that….
@David Macmillan have fun wasting your money in one of the most corrupt nations on Earth. If you’re really lucky they’ll let you go waste your life there and not just paper money
Exactly every time a nation concedes something to Russia in a form of appeasement, Russia then soaks it up and looks for more.
Take the Crimea for example, Russia took this and then invaded again despite this territory being what the world called the “price” of peace.
At this point it would be best for Ukraine to keep pushing until it gets Crimea back into Ukraine control and as a result it would effectively cause Russia to Crumble.
Russia is a military/fuel based economy and if it fails to win wars it relies on it’s fuel. Yet in an era where fuel is being replaced by alternative means of energy creation/collection the Russian economy is technically on the brink and can soon be made mostly redundant on the global market.
This is the nuts and bolts behind the invasion as NATO is just a bad excuse considering the other NATO members already on Russia’s border that it ignores.
So while people complain about the change to new energy methods, this is a surprisingly great opportunity to cast aside the shackles of the past and look forward to something different and possibly better.
@Michael Flack not like how NATO and their more impressive daddy the USA has been doing for 70 years tho. When we invade a sovereign nation it’s different. We don’t have all these bullshit reasons like “foreign powers encircling us” or “NATO made a promise to not expand”. We do it just cause it maybe fun. If you’re a Westerner and you’re acting like Russia has done something wrong here congratulations on being the biggest stupidest hypocrite to walk the earth
3:53 conscripted off the streets, little or no training, rusty unusable equipment, no NCO corps, and officers hiding in the rear guard. Not the recipe for victory.
Well that is the Ukrainian army as well. Of course though they do have NATO weapons, and NATO satellites with NATO advisers.
@John Freedman The Ukrainian foot soldiers are the same, But when you have everything else working you can get experience and do the job better with time. Especially if you’re winning.
Long live Crimea, beautiful territory of UKRAINE!
This is a great opportunity to halt the Russian drone assault on Ukraine. Just say UN will be allowed to fully investigate whether biological or chemical are developed. That requires of course a total stop for drone attacks in Ukraine while the investigation goes on.
“Hate destroys and LOVE heals! Simple message but escapes Putin.”
Glory to Ukraine. You are all heroes.
Hahaha
go Russia 🇷🇺
You can do it Ukrainian soldiers take Kherson, belongs to you and your people, more recruits to Ukraine,more pressure on Putin more sanctions more longer distance powerful weapons. Victory to Ukraine
Yay war! Yayyyy pointless death and destruction! I support the current thing!
@Alex Frideres easy to say when its not your land being taken, or your families raped and murdered in a war that Russia, by which i mean Putin, started and continues to support.
Ukraine says they want to fight until Russia leaves their land. So get in line and support Ukraine, or go push the Kremlin’s narrative. Only one party to this conflict wills it to continue, and that party is Russia. If Russia stops fighting, the war is over. If Ukraine stops fighting, Ukraine is over.
@Alex Frideres so … you support an authoritarian dictatorship looking to destroy an independent democratic nation? You’re either terribly naive or a Russian troll. Either way, you need to go away.
@Nicholas Nicklebee no, clearly, I said I support the current thing, which is whatever the mainstream news tells me to support
dude he just ADMITTED they knew the invasion and did NOTHING to prevent. They could have used intel counter attack or ARM the Ukrainians before invasion. This isn’t impressive. While Russia was throwing bombs at start . We hear NATO and joe Biden predicting invasion and having a defeatist attitude. Absolute appeasement was used with intel.
Hold on to what is rightfully belongs to you Ukrainians never give up, never give in.
Slava Ukraine!♥️🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇦🇮🇱
Glory 2 Ukraine!!! Glory 2 Ukrainian Armed Forces!!!
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
