Thanks for that, Tom!
Osama bin Laden was "... killed at his compound in the Pakistani city of Abbottabad, by United States Navy SEALs of SEAL Team Six (also known as DEVGRU)."
You write, "Al-Qaeda was based in Afghanist[t]an, with the support of the Taliban" and one observes the Taliban are again ruling Afghanistan, after our 19 years there and Biden's disastrous withdrawal.
You write, "This is not a peaceful world, but, if you wish to remain in denial of that fact...." I never asserted it was, and do not deny the fact that this is not a peaceful world. You are playing the "so what you said is" game like a BBC interviewer. Ineptly.
And, yes, you are responding in an emotional manner.
Stoking emotions on the issue & avoiding your original question seems to be the intent with these nutjobs.
Your point is well taken.
Originally I did ask, and was not answered: 1) Are you pleased with Biden's support for Ukraine? 2) Are you not pleased with Biden's support for Ukraine? 3) Other than complaining to others who are as anonymous as are you, what do you propose?
So you are saying we should not have defeated Hitler? That we should not have defeated Japan?

Hitler, we had no choice. And at least we were able to contain the Soviets for the 40-50 years we had to.
Japan, now hmmm, that’s interesting. Would we rather have Imperial Japan or Communist China. I don’t think we necessarily had to go to war with Japan, I think there were some things that could have happened before it got to the point of no return. But I could foresee a scenario where Japan could have been useful, after all they were our Ally in WWI, and could have served as a Bulwark against Bolshevism, and kept the Soviets in check.
As soon as Russia withdraws to the original boundaries there will be ‘peace’.*
* There was low level fighting since at least 2014.
Readily available on Telegram. Including the dead bodies of the Russians who were defending the trenches, or even live helmet camera video of the Russian defenders getting killed.
Articles that rely on false premises usually are not very informative.
The tires are the sophisticated "echeloned" defense.
The article's author thinks 180 combat planes could not penetrate the great Russian air defenses, but already Ukraine has shown that $2000 cardboard drones can penetrate Russian defenses at major air bases and destroy parked Russian military aircraft.
Why do people post such incorrect nonsense?
How does Victoria Nuland of all people get Putin to do what she wants him to do? Why is he her puppet?
That sounds like a fantasy from a Russian propagandist, not reality.
Please post a couple of URLs. Thanks.
That won’t happen.
Yes. That is the photo. Thanks.
The weapon tells me it was not WWI, as I thought. But the background was trench warfare looking.
I was in college in 1969. That was 54 years ago, I am 75 now.
And the Russians are having parties with cake, ice cream and balloons.
Stop handing Putin cheap victories.
Pro-Russia propagandists are everywhere. I get tired of reading their junk.
