Yeah these globalist NGOs have been around for years and are the ones pulling the strings even behind our government. Many of the CEOs, Chairmen, board members have been in politics for decades and worked for both repubs and dems. They are the uniparty. They’re way smarter than most of our alleged reps and have a lot of input to the decisions our reps make when it comes to foreign policy. There’s a reason both parties are all in agreement on Ukraine.
“.....more and more are cluing in”.
For sure.
I agree with you. I think they could pull something BIG to make the midterm elections in Nov. impossible to hold. They know they’re going to get their azzes kicked and it will be devastating for them. They’ll do anything to hold onto power and control.
I think the rats would be perfectly happy to reign over the ashes of nuclear explosions.
There are a lot of possible reasons for what Lithuania has done, including this.
We can speculate, but no one on this forum has the inside information required to actually know for sure.
About all we can say for sure is that what Lithuania did is a definite escalation, and a response by Russia is probable.
That said, my personal opinion is that you are right. It may not be the ONLY reason, but in my opinion the people pulling Biden's strings expect a response by Russia, and plan to use that response to further their own political objectives.
They are playing with fire. They do not care.
Russia just wants its 1917 borders back. They want more than that. Look at his December 17 Declaration, where he demanded NATO move out of Eastern Europe. In order for Putin to get those 1917 borders back as you claim he will have to take territory from NATO countries. Somehow that won't invoke NATO Article 5?
I think so, too. Evil destroys reason and decency, among many other things.
NATO is a fraud.
If you think France, Germany, and the US will fight Russia over Lithuania's provocations in the Suwalki corridor, you are nuts.
Only in the fervid mind of a Putinist is Lithuania telling Russia to GTFO of Lithuania an escalation. This is a normal state of affairs. Pay no attention to the Kremlin bootlickers.
I won’t speak for the other Putinists, just for myself.
I am in favor of spheres of influence. The US has an outsized role in Mexico, in Central America, and in the Caribbean. This is right and good.
The opposite of spheres of influence is globalism, a deadly poison which has damaged our people almost beyond repair.
The daughter of globalism is the so-called “rules based international order”, another deadly enemy of America.
If Putin fights for his own sphere of influence and against “international rules”, I support him unreservedly. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
America is NOT obligated to do anything!
Even International laws regulating refugees are not obligating anything like that!
It is just the tops who things that will get them votes eventually!
Outstanding.
However, You did speak for me, rather eloquently and to the whole point.
Thanks for that link to the Freedom anti Commmunist Song,” Ain’t I Right.”
I put it right on Social Media.
Better Dead than Red.
The Soviet Union deported all the ethnic Germans from Kaliningrad to Siberia. They did so in the late ‘40s and the early ‘50s.
[I wonder what’s gotten into to the Pro-Invansion faction. Over the last week They seem more arbitrarily selective and shrill than usual. Or have I just been to busy with real life to notice? ]
Yes, it’s pretty disgusting.
“These crazy warmongering Ukrainians. How dare they shoot at the invading military! Very irresponsible!”
You miss the point. It’s not that the Ukrainians shot at a Russian ship — they are at war and they get to conduct a war.
The point of my post was that the Ukes publicly announced they had killed a Russian ship and Russian soldiers with very advanced US weapons (the Harpoon missile).
Now the Russians can’t pretend otherwise and are forced to retaliate against the US in some way.
The only reason to announce that fact publicly is to escalate tensions between the US and Russia and to possibly bring the two countries to direct war. I understand why Zelensky would like to have US soldiers shooting at Russian soldiers. But I don’t understand why Biden would want that. Or you.
The State did 9/11 on their own - didnt need to provoke anyone else to do it.
NATO has no reason to exist anymore, not after 1991. The collapse of the Soviet Union meant it was mission accomplished. Now, it’s nothing but another member of the globalist, warmongering Derp State. Its existence now is a reason to provoke a nuclear war, and for what ? It needs to be summarily abolished.
That wast Western news playing the game of whispers with headlines. My post on Ukraine Takes out Russian Boat With Harpoon Missiles, Video Appears to Show unfortunately added to the confusion. What Ukraine said was they took out the ship, probably by a TB2 with mini smart bombs. First the press reports the news from the Ukraine MOD. Then another story reports it and adds a few paragraphs about how the UK sold Ukraine Harpoons. Then another news site cites the original and puts "Harpoons" in the headlines for sensationalism and clickbait.
What is really getting really tiresome is the mediocrity of the news coverage despite being flooded with information daily. Then they are too many experts whose main expertise is acting far smarter than they really are.
