President-elect Trump’s choice for special envoy to Ukraine and Russia, retired Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg, slammed the Russian military missile and drone attack on Christmas Day and said the U.S. is “more resolved than ever to bring peace to the region.”
“Christmas should be a time of peace, yet Ukraine was brutally attacked on Christmas Day,” Kellogg wrote Wednesday on social platform X. “Launching large-scale missile and drone attacks on the day of the Lord’s birth is wrong. The world is closely watching actions on both sides. The U.S. is more resolved than ever to bring peace to the region.”

Not to mention the main catalyst. The Kiev coup government invaded sent their nazi Svoboda and Right Sector Banderist militias to attack the east where they launched artillery attacks on cities and passed a raft of ethnic cleansing laws.
All for the crime of opting out of the coup government that took over Kiev.
Over 10k died.
No, it’s about the US 2014 toppling of the legally elected Ukrainian government. Which was followed up with the appointment of a US puppet. And the building of the Ukrainian army. And years of attacks on Russian speaking Ukrainians in Crimea. And the continued US promotion of Ukraine as a NATO member, and the building of scores of bioweapon labs in Ukraine, and the US Black Rock company buying (secretly) the mineral assets rights of everything worth anything in Ukraine.
“””He say anything about Trenton or Okinawa?”””
Do you think the unique circumstances for those days were the same as it is for this aerial attack planned for Christmas? and how did the Japanese get dragged into this?
Why did President Trump have American troops in Ukraine to train them against Russia attack, and why did he break the dam and start sending them weapons? Why did President Trump bring back V Corps and move it forward to Poland, what enemy was he acting against?
Kiev started it. When the Banderist nazis took over that city, they tried to expand the coup to claim all of the territory of old Ukraine.
But they forgot, when you throw a coup, everyone else has that same right to assert control of THEIR areas.
Also, when you overthrow the legitimate government, the last thing you need is the surly street militias standing around watching and chiming in. So they sent them east to attack the Donbass and grab Crimea.
Kiev Banderists started this war.
Sessions lol... THAT’S a high bar.
Putin trolls reach for new heights of stupidity.
In the early fourth century, the church fixed the date as 25 December, the date of the winter solstice in the Roman Empire. It is nine months after Annunciation on 25 March, also the Roman date of the spring equinox. The Catholics adopted this immediately and it spread into Protestant faiths.
Orthodox uses a date from the Julian calendar from 46 AD.
Their brand is more uncorrupted by the Roman Empire.
And no, nobody here a decade ago gave a moment’s though to getting the Orthodox Christians to coordinate with western churches. (Except the Pope of course)
“No, it’s about the US 2014 toppling of the legally elected Ukrainian government.”
The Ukrianians booted out Putin’s stooge. That’s what happened, and that upset Putin.
” and how did the Japanese get dragged into this?”
Because a supposed general was gobsmacked at the idea of military attacks on Christian holidays. Seems he slept through a few classes at the War College.
And anyway, Ukraine explicitly refused a Christmas cease fire and launched their own drone attack on Grozny. So where is the foul?
You tell me who Trump was attacking. Trump is a hard guy to figure. He claims the deadly fake COVID vaccines saved 100 million lives. In reality, they have killed tens of millions. Everyone makes a small mistake now and then.
Oh, so Victoria Nuland is a Ukrainian. And here I thought she worked for the US State Department.
Many Orthodox use December 25th and in the past FR Christians would be fine with that, I don’t think if we dig up those old threads that the FR Christians would be shown to be angry at more Orthodox joining us as we see now, now that it is considered as rather than embracing a more American and Western Christian tradition as instead moving away from Russia.
“Victoria Nuland”
A single player who had far less power to do anything than many political figures in Ukraine, who really were in charge, and she had equal counter figures at the same time working covertly and overtly for Putin to direct events in Ukraine in his favor. Why so many in the west ignore the latter is a great mystery.
Not to mention that at that time he was closely boxed in by the GOP Uke loving republicans. He was being investigated as a Russian agent, impeached and investigated for even delaying aid to Ukraine.
That was not his policy per se. It was the policy of the GOPe neocons including Pence, and he had to throw them a bone here and there to keep the entire sicko structure from simply removing him and ending his reelection.
That post, “Why did President Trump have American troops in Ukraine to train them against Russia attack, and why did he break the dam and start sending them weapons? Why did President Trump bring back V Corps and move it forward to Poland, what enemy was he acting against?” was pretty clear, as was President Trump’s other actions to protect us and our allies from our enemy, Russia.
Trump’s years of a national defense and nuclear buildup to protect against Russia and better protect Europe, was not a mistake.
Most orthodox use Jan 7. And I never saw anyone here care much about it.
Well, his new guy Kellogg Rice Krispies seems to make Joe Biden look brilliant with his stupid comments. Trump’s success rate on appointments is about 30%.
You think that made him reactivate V Corps, made him move its previous headquarters from Germany forward to Poland, start a new nuclear weapons increase and new nuclear subs, and pull us out of the INF treaty, insist on a NATO buildup and ending their dependency on Russia energy?
Trump’s foreign policy was not based on his being weak and afraid of “Pence”.
Russia has never posed an iota of threat against the US. So, Trump was clearly wasting his time. The US State Department and CIA are the real threats to the world.
