Ukraine On Fire
Rumble ^ | March 9, 2022 | GlobalTreePictures

Posted on 06/03/2022 7:29:01 AM PDT by Robert DeLong

Ukraine. Across its eastern border is Russia and to its west-Europe. For centuries, it has been at the center of a tug-of-war between powers seeking to control its rich lands and access to the Black Sea. 2014's Maidan Massacre triggered a bloody uprising that ousted president Viktor Yanukovych and painted Russia as the perpetrator by Western media. But was it? "Ukraine on Fire" by Igor Lopatonok..

Yes, this is dated. However, it tells what Ukraine really is, and why we do not need to be supporting this nation.

It's a very valuable country to control in Risk, since it serves as a barrier between Europe and Asia. It blocks attacks from the west, so it a good defense to Asia, and can attack Europe in several different places, so it's difficult to defend from.

Supporting Ukraine means supporting globalism and wokeism at home, supporting the deep-state and suppression of conservatives here in the USA, and supporting political and financial corruption from the likes of Biden and Clinton.

This is their war, and its NOT at all in the interests of the American people.

Many of the weapons we have sent Ukraine are for sale in the Middle East black markets.

No one can, at least not honestly. 🙂

How DARE you imply that Ukraine isn’t worth starting WW3 over. Don’t you know the rules here!!!!

You must be on Putin’s payroll, you anti-American freak.

Russia brags incessantly about their ability to “win” a nuclear war. They threaten Europe and America. Their purpose in the Ukraine is to steal resources. Not supporting Ukraine means we are empowering our sworn enemy. Their deputies in the Duma are already threatening Poland and the Baltic States.

Our policy should be to equip Ukraine with what it needs to kill every Russian and Chechen thug in Ukrainian territory.

Sworn enemy? For insane DC neocon fools and their propaganda, yes. For everyone else? NO.

I suspect a lot of people here and elsewhere will deny ever supporting Ukraine, as the war goes against them and more is learned as to just what they were supporting in the first place.

At a minimum, it now looks as though Ukraine will be dismembered, with pieces going Russia, Poland, and other countries. And that could have all been AVOIDED, had the Ukraine cheerleaders not pushed the fight.

You need to read Russian social media. The love talking about their ability to cremate American cities.

You are an insane pro-genocide Cossack-hating butcher.
