Ukraine DESTROYS 3 Major Russian Oil Facilities; Putin LASHES Out | Breaking News With The Enforcer The Enforcer Jun 20, 2024 4:00 p.m. EDT 11:21 Minutes
Today, we learn that Ukraine hit three oil depot/refineries in Russia overnight. Ukrainian attack drones successfully struck a Russian Lukoil oil depot in Krasnodar Krai this morning, setting the facility ablaze.
We also learn that South Korea has begun considering sending arms and military aid to Ukraine in an unprecedented move. As a result of North Korea's new defensive pact, the South Koreans are becoming concerned of the possibility of war breaking out on the Korean Peninsula.
We have also heard that Russia is considering changing its nuclear doctrine from defensive to a "first-strike" doctrine. Putin continues to escalate the war in Ukraine as tensions continue to rise around the world.
I don’t give a rat’s behind.
I don’t want my tax dollars going unaudited to a known money laundering operation.
It’s that simple, but zeepers apparently can’t grasp that concept.
You’re not kidding. Just about every zeeper cockroach has come crawling out of the woodwork in the past few hours.
That must have been one heck of a FReepmail blast. 😂

Who are the anti communists? Or did you just add that in to make your weak arsed list look more robust?
Oh and wow, two etcs because only one etc wouldn’t have covered all of the others supporting wonderful Ukraine. Geesh, LOL
I see no reason to support Ukraine unless a country or a person is ignorant of, or confused about who the tyrannical homos and globalists really are. Those scum from that world cabal are not planning on a free Ukraine any more than Russia would provide.
I see no reason to support Russia either. Let those two countries sort it out and quit forcing US taxpayers to keep Ukraine afloat. US needs to totally get out of Ukraine.
“I see no reason to support Russia either. Let those two countries sort it out and quit forcing US taxpayers to keep Ukraine afloat. US needs to totally get out of Ukraine.”
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
If the free world had followed your logic in the 40’s, Hitler would have taken Europe and Russia easily. And maybe later... America.
Your “let them sort it out” solution is a warmonger’s dream! It pushes aggressive nations to pursue and expand their imperialism and invasions all over the world - totally unhindered. Your concept is fueling wars to go on for ever.
It’s like if you witnessed a woman being raped by gang of Antifa thugs and you decide to “let them sort it out” and not call for a helping hand - the police.
Why drain police resources for a woman, it’s not YOUR problem. Right?
Thus, that gang will continue to find new victims, unhindered, and continue their rape actions all over. Letting crime go unpunished is a Democrat philosophy. Look what they did in New York! A crime hell-hole.
I don’t know why you oppose Law and Order, which it a Republican motto.
The only thing Russia needs in its ongoing expansionist euphoria (Ukraine, Crimea, Georgia, Moldova are already partly stolen by Russia) right now is for Ukraine’s allies to just say “let them sort them out”. Let’s reward Russias take over of nations by doing... nothing!
Your irrepressible attitude is what a potential WWIII desperately needs to become reality.
Oh that we tired, old, exclusively white, overweight, sedentary FReepers (and “Neepers” (Nazi FReepers) in our armchairs could still dance like that … lol
Sure, Jan
You read my post. Go back to it again if you must.
When it comes to Asia here are some of the nations that support Ukraine
All democratic:
Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Thailand, Philippines,
Opposed to Ukraine and or allied with Russia or neutral:
All authoritarian or communist
North Korea, Red China, Myanmar, Russia (Far East), Vietnam …
Have fun choose your side, all!
Someone challenge me on this… I dare you
A disengagement from Ukraine by the United States and the West free world does not mean “they will sort it out”… It needs immediate collapse of Ukraine and victory of Russia, readying for further westward conquest… Which is of course something you don’t seek, correct?
“the Briefing Room? That’s where zeepers migrate to after they’ve been suspended or zotted. The site is filled with pro-UKES and NeverTrumpers. You should give it a try.”

You are a very disgruntled freeper unwilling to consider ANY information that reveals nature of the invasion of Ukraine by Putin past or present.

Wall to wall pro-UKES and NeverTrumpers...Prove me wrong mommy. I’m sure you checked out the site after Meggie The Banned sent you an invitation, probably even before.
Disgruntled? No, far from it. I’m a happy FReeper. Happy that I can go to a site where I can exercise my First Amendment Rights with like minded Conservatives.
Sadly, FR now has some puddles of foreign influenced poopie propaganda here and there, but once the UKE war is over, and the zeepers go on to greener ($$$$) pastures, I won’t have to hold my nose or look where I step.
A minor inconvenience but the fun you zeepers provide is worth it.
”… unwilling to consider ANY information that reveals nature of the invasion of Ukraine by Putin past or present.”
We have all considered the information and just happen to disagree with the Democrats and RINOs (the swamp) about pouring billions of American taxpayer dollars into that den of corruption.
”Disgruntled FReeper.” Give me a freakin’ break with that unmitigated BS.
I honestly wonder why these leftists don’t go to a site more in line with their ideology like DU or Daily KOS. I guess they’re getting paid to disrupt this one.
Obviously, you need more capital letters.
>>>>I honestly wonder why these leftists don’t go to a site more in line with their ideology like DU or Daily KOS. I guess they’re getting paid to disrupt this one.<<<<
Either they’re getting paid, or they’re extremely stupid.
bimboeruption: "Either they’re getting paid, or they’re extremely stupid."
So, let's begin here -- if Ronald Reagan is now a "leftist" and Russians are somehow "conservative", then Russian propaganda has succeeded beyond its wildest dreams during Reagan's lifetime.
And let's acknowledge the core of the pro-Russian argument, repeated here cheerfully: "I don’t want my tax dollars going unaudited to a known money laundering operation."
In short, the Russian invasion of Ukraine is none of our business.
The core of the pro-Ukraine argument has three elements:
US Communists' support for isolationism ended when Hitler invaded the Old Soviet Union, but still the vast majority of Americans did not want the US to fight the war.
They were, however, totally OK with FDR's Lend Lease plan for sending $billions to mainly Britain but also to France, the USSR and Nationalist China.
This is where we are today, with the vast majority of Americans opposed to sending US troops to fight in Ukraine, but willing to support aid to Ukrainians.
Still, many anti-Ukers today don't recognize the dangers posed by the New Axis of Evil Dictators and insist that costs and risks from opposing such dictators are greater than from letting evil have its way, and so they don't even support US aid to Ukraine.
Where do Republicans stand?
I looked up swing-state Pennsylvania's congressional vote on Ukraine aid.
Pennsylvania has eight Republican congressmen and in April five voted for aid to Ukraine, two voted against and one abstained.
Here on Free Republic, if this thread is any indicator, then our anti-Ukers outnumber and out-post pro-Ukrainers by roughly two to one, and anti-Ukers are highly proficient in mocking, insulting and personal attacks on those who support Ukraine.
They also seem to enjoy protections from the "powers that be" who would not tolerate such behavior from the rest of us.
Finally, it's worth remembering that since the 1968 anti-war riots at the Chicago Democratic National Convention, any Americans who opposed war in principle -- such as religious pacifists or libertarians -- had only one political home, and that was the Democrats, who consistently opposed military actions led by Republican presidents Nixon, Ford, Reagan, Bush and Bush.
Now that Democrats are leading their own semi-war in Ukraine, I think Donald Trump sees an opportunity to win back some votes which would not support previous "war monger" Republicans.
Whether this will cost Trump enough old-style Reagan Conservative votes to lose this election is unknown now, though polls suggest that it won't.
Bottom line is that we do neither Donald Trump nor Free Republic any favors if we let the acrimony between pro and anti-Ukrainers get so high it drives people away from the site and from voting for Donald Trump.
imho yrmv
BroJoeK,
There are many people posting here and even among those that are pro-Ukraine war, or against the war, where you will find different persuasions as to cause, the way forward, etc.
This is for MOST not about being pro-Ukraine or pro-Russian, that is you.
This is about a stupid war that was not necessary. There was no need for this: https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/ukrainian-president-zelenskiy-holding-talks-with-biden-adviser-says-2021-12-09/
This is about a war that was predictable.
This is about a war with nearly a pre-determined outcome.
This is a war not benefiting Ukraine, Western or Central Europe, the US, or Russia.
The only winner here is a small group of folks in the financial (example: Black Rock, JPMC) and defense industries. The rest of the people, the average citizen in Germany, the US, Ukraine or Russia, are (((ALL))) losers. Yes, we are losers since in the grand scheme of things, I am less wealthy and less safe because of this conflict. I am forced to be a loser because I also sit in the same boat and the morons Aspen, Blinken, Nuland, Biden, Sullivan are at the wheel, which steered us into this mess.
For you, this might be about choosing sides and some deep instilled hatred/distrust for Russia.
However, for most against this war, it is about a senseless destruction of wealth and life, the infliction of pain and fear that was entirely avoidable.
Now, we are in the odd situation of pretending like we have a moral high ground and are winning (although the winning myth is fading).
This is the result of a colossal policy failure, no different than the withdraw from Afghanistan and how that unfolded.
The only difference here, is that because of the nature of this conflict, the average layperson will lay blame for this conflict on who shot first, i.e. Russia. The lead up to the war and what really caused it is intentionally ignored (pointless in having a debate with people that are insincere - they are not interested in truth). The MSM that is favorable to the Democrats and Biden, a foreign (European) MSM which is on board with this conflict (same interests which were driving them), causes us to have a near one sided message with little to no dissent in the MSM. Here on the FR, where a few folks actually think on their own and don’t just regurgitate what they read in the MSM and social media, you will find some differing viewpoints.
Sorry you feel threatened by people that have different view points. If you feel it’s a problem that you’re outnumbered 2:1 according to you, then simply go to the MSM or Social media outlets where except for a small minority like TCN which actually are off the beaten path, you will see a massage in agreement with yours. From NBC, CNN, CBS, Huffington Post, the NYT’s, to the Dallas Morning News... they are (((ALL))) in step with your view point, so maybe it’s you that needs to think about what platform to use if it bothers you that others see things differently.
Traditionally, the conservative view is not that expeditionary, expansionist, globalist (supra national), for profit or politically motivated military campaigns are a good thing. Traditionally, from the very beginning, the idea is that the US should keep out of European affairs, be nearly neutral and what we today would describe with the pejorative: “isolationist.” If you were to time-travel, you’d see that the views of Rand and Ron Paul are pretty much what our Founding Fathers espoused.
From the very beginning: https://www.mountvernon.org/library/digitalhistory/past-projects/quotes/article/it-is-our-true-policy-to-steer-clear-of-permanent-alliance-with-any-portion-of-the-foreign-world/
You have some very interesting ideas of what it means to be “conservative.”
Sorry, I don’t have the desire or the time to read your long-winded and tedious attempts at showing us all how intellectual and knowledgeable you think you are.
If you keep your comments to under 400 words, I may give it a try.
Austin, not Aspen. Off by a few years. Dates me. Hahaha
Don’t waste your time explaining to BroJoke the facts concerning the UKE war.
Countless FReepers have told him why America shouldn’t be involved, but he doesn’t want to hear it.
Either he’s getting paid, or he’s extremely stupid. I stand by that statement.
