12,000 troops...that’s insane rotten SOB
May be the US troops were practicing being woke by practicing proper pronouns with names on sticks with matching stones.............
“This reminds me of the Russian Trolls, Putinistas and LiberalTarians repeating over and over...Vlad is merely having a training exercise near Ukraine.
Yet, the West is having a real training exercise and the conspiracy nuts come full on wackjob.“
Yep!
I’ve learned in the past years there are nut jobs on both sides of the political spectrum
No. Even Biden wouldn't be that stupid - unless Putin attacks a NATO country.
There have been other situations where our military deployed to foreign countries in civilian clothes and told to leave their Military ID cards at home. It wasn't just Laos/Cambodia.
“..Us Troops Spotted Drilling War Games Near Russian Border..”
In between diversity and climate change classes.
Will Admiral Levine lead the charge?
Here is the results of Putin and his Puffers.
Ukraine war: Nine-year-old girl loses arm after being shot by Russians https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10614473/Ukraine-war-Nine-year-old-girl-loses-arm-shot-Russians.html?ito=native_share_article-masthead
Let’s cut to the chase, shall we?
Nazi is a truncation of Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (NSDAP; National Socialist German Workers’ Party). It was a fascist movement, and fascism is socialist just as communism is. Nazism was national socialism, and communism was (is) international socialism. That distinction, as well as the manner of government control over the economy and means of production, are the only things that really differentiate the two. Put bluntly, they are competing ideas of socialism, but socialism is what both subscribe(d) to.
And both are authoritarian and brutal.
The irony is that Putin is more a fascist than a communist. Yet, his announced intent was to rid Ukraine of Nazis (fascists)? It suggests a rivalry between competing fascists for dominance more than a fight of opposites.
“Great. Let’s send Americans to die to help the neo-Nazi Azov battalion that is now pulling Zelenksy’s puppet strings since Burisma’s owner and Hunter’s employer Igor Kolomoisky left the country.”
So, one battalion (roughly 400 troops) is the puppeteer of the entire Zelensky (a Jew!) government, which necessarily includes the Ukrainian military?
You have pushed this Nazis! Nazis! Nazis! slander as much as the Democrats pushed Russia! Russia! Russia! during the Trump presidency. Simply projection and a smoke screen. Hell, Antifa in the US is far more influential in American national politics than the Azov battalion is over Ukrainian national politics. Ironically, Putin is a fascist (Nazism was a fascist movement). But, you knew that. Is that why you take his side on these threads? I wonder.
FTR: I am opposed to ANY American troops getting involved in this fight. As for China? It doesn’t have to do anything but sit back and watch the show, because the big winner in all this is...China.
“Really wouldn’t surprise me a bit if we had already had special forces on the ground and likely have since day 1”

I would guess a number of CIA “advisors” in the mix, too.
“You have pushed this Nazis! Nazis! Nazis! slander as much as the Democrats pushed Russia! Russia! Russia! during the Trump presidency.”

The difference being there was nothing Russian in the Trump presidency, even an investigation came up with a big zero. In the other case, we’re talking Ukraine’s actual neo-Nazis.
Putin can be a bad guy and Ukraine can have a Nazi problem, it’s not a mutually exclusive thing.
What that means is that if Russia wins and absorbs the Ukraine back into the Russian Federation, these four American Socialist criminal politicians lose their investment and influence in their corrupt enterprise.
Yep. And a lot of them are probably sweating out blackmail tapes where they stupidly discussed their “arrangements” and were recorded.
This would include Joe Biden, except he probably can’t remember what he was doing yesterday, much less a few years ago.
It’s become pretty apparent that historic Russian paranoia is well justified.
If it wasn’t for their nukes, we’d already be running our Abrams into Moscow. Make no mistake, if the deepstate/globalists have their desires, they will do whatever it takes to ‘liberate’ Russia and absorb them into their new world order.
Shot by “Russians.” Ok. Haven’t you learned a thing the last six years? Don’t believe the media.
Nazis are just communists with better tailors.
You, ignorantly and despicably downplaying the neo-Nazi influence in Ukraine.
The Azov battalion is one faction of a much greater neo-Nazi movement within Ukraine:
https://countercurrents.org/2022/03/how-the-u-s-has-empowered-and-armed-neo-nazis-in-ukraine/
The reality behind the propaganda is that the West and its Ukrainian allies have opportunistically exploited and empowered the extreme right in Ukraine, first to pull off the 2014 coup, and then by redirecting it to fight separatists in Eastern Ukraine. And far from “denazifying” Ukraine, the Russian invasion is likely to further empower Ukrainian and international neo-Nazis, as it attracts fighters from around the world and provides them with weapons, military training and the combat experience that many of them are hungry for.
Ukraine’s neo-Nazi Svoboda Party and its founders Oleh Tyahnybok and Andriy Parubiy played leading roles in the U.S-backed coup in February 2014. Assistant Secretary Nuland and Ambassador Pyatt mentioned Tyahnybok as one of the leaders they were working with on their infamous leaked phone call before the coup, even as they tried to exclude him from an official position in the post-coup government.
As formerly peaceful protests in Kyiv gave way to pitched battles with police and violent, armed marches to try to break through police barricades and reach the Parliament building, Svoboda members and the newly-formed Right Sector militia, led by Dmytro Yarosh, battled police, spearheaded marches and raided a police armory for weapons. By mid-February 2014, these men with guns were the de facto leaders of the Maidan movement.
We will never know what kind of political transition peaceful protests alone would have led to in Ukraine or how different the new government would have been if a peaceful political process had been allowed to take its course, without interference by the United States or violent right-wing extremists. ### And, Azov has considerable power to recruit likeminded radicals to Ukraine:
https://countercurrents.org/2022/03/how-the-u-s-has-empowered-and-armed-neo-nazis-in-ukraine/
In 2019, the Soufan Center, which tracks terrorist and extremist groups around the world, warned, “The Azov Battalion is emerging as a critical node in the transnational right-wing violent extremist network… (Its) aggressive approach to networking serves one of the Azov Battalion’s overarching objectives, to transform areas under its control in Ukraine into the primary hub for transnational white supremacy.”
The Soufan Center described how the Azov Battalion’s “aggressive networking” reaches around the world to recruit fighters and spread its white supremacist ideology. Foreign fighters who train and fight with the Azov Battalion then return to their own countries to apply what they have learned and recruit others. Violent foreign extremists with links to Azov have included Brenton Tarrant, who massacred 51 worshippers at a mosque in Christchurch in New Zealand in 2019, and several members of the U.S. Rise Above Movement who were prosecuted for attacking counter-protestors at the “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville in August 2017. Other Azov veterans have returned to Australia, Brazil, Germany, Italy, Norway, Sweden, the U.K. and other countries.
Despite Svoboda’s declining success in national elections, neo-Nazi and extreme nationalist groups, increasingly linked to the Azov Battalion, have maintained power on the street in Ukraine, and in local politics in the Ukrainian nationalist heartland around Lviv in Western Ukraine.
“The difference being there was nothing Russian in the Trump presidency, even an investigation came up with a big zero.”
Um, Russian citizen Igor Danchenko, who was later arrested.
“In the other case, we’re talking Ukraine’s actual neo-Nazis.”
I see; slander an entire nation based on a small group of nutballs. May as well brand the entire United States as terrorists because of jailhouse neo-nazis.
CounterCurrents is your source???? That far-left, anti-capitalist, anti-West rag whose motto is “Educate! Organize! Agitate!”? That CounterCurrents?
If that is your source, tovarischch, you have outed yourself for all to see.
I bet you have “Rules for Radicals” on your bedside table.
You have no credibility in any rational discussion.
