Wonder how the Brits are responding to Putin’s remarks concerning PM Johnson’s actions concerning Ukraine?
Yeah let’s go to the brainwashed leftist children at The Guardian and get their spin on it.
It was interesting. Compare Putin to Bidone or the English chap or Macron
Actually it was pretty insightful, I thought.
Fascinating how the propaganda is suddenly against free speech and are attempting to bury the story.
Maybe you can post another article about Putin’s restless leg!
I found it interesting because of the cultural divide. Russians and other Eastern Europeans are always anxious to explain history when discussing any conflict in their backyard. The successions of conflicts, peace treaties, and movements usually come into those discussions about why the aforementioned resulted in some modern conflict.
Most of Western Europe and North America avoid such historical preludes because it’s all assumed water under the bridge.
And it’s almost idiosyncratic how Putin likes to explain histories. It seems that any major speech of his that deals with national or international conflict begins with a long prelude about historical precedent.
Floppusmaximus...
Looking forward to you rolling out those tired old Tucker pictures....
If you understand history, you can understand current times. This is not a new idea.
Russian history back to the first millenium A.D. tells everything.
It’s when the Khazars first started causing problems, and when the Russians defeated them.
The cabal of today is descended from those Khazars, and the conflict with the Russians is what we’re seeing in Europe, particularly Ukraine.
ZEEPER FOLLIES PINGLIST!
(((PING!)))
... to be added to the best entertainment since Paul Shanklin parodies, ping me bro.
PJW did a good job describing the MSM hypocrisy regarding the interview
Tucker Carlson’s interview certainly brought a lot of truth to the public’s view...unlike the propaganda this administration has been brainwashing people with.
Listen to his interview and review history:
Obsession with NATO expansion: a deeply ideological move inevitable in provoking conflicts
By James Smith
Published: Apr 02, 2022
“NATO and the EU’s attempts to subsequently encroach Russia’s own periphery would prove to be the decisive straws which “broke the camel’s back” and provoked conflict. It is a logical feature of international relations theory, as reiterated by leading scholar John Mearsheimer, that attempting to ensnare and encircle one country with a hostile military alliance is a straight route to conflict. The West makes no apology for it, believing that it is their ideological right and destiny to do so, as the “end of history” logic goes. Western expansion soon provoked in the Euromaidan crisis of 2013 in Ukraine, sparking a tidal wave of anti-Russian nationalism which then opened up a geopolitical struggle over the future of Ukraine. The West in turn failed to acknowledge how the ultra-nationalist assault on Russian identity and language in the country has also been humiliating to Moscow.
The US and its allies in their hubris refused to compromise, setting off a chain reaction of events leading to the present day. Russia’s reactions to this context are branded as aggression and zero-sum moral evil. However, they are in the strategic sense necessary for Moscow to safeguard its own national security and offset military and political domination by an adversarial military alliance.
This whole scenario was ultimately preventable. But Western governments and media continue to gravely mislead the public about its causes.”

UnCommon Core: The Causes and Consequences of the Ukraine Crisis
John J. Mearsheimer, the R. Wendell Harrison Distinguished Service Professor in Political Science and Co-director of the Program on International Security Policy at the University of Chicago, assesses the causes of the present Ukraine crisis, the best way to end it, and its consequences for all of the main actors. A key assumption is that in order to come up with the optimum plan for ending the crisis, it is essential to know what caused the crisis. Regarding the all-important question of causes, the key issue is whether Russia or the West bears primary responsibility.

It was neither talk show nor serious conversation.
It was what I expected it to be; because that was the only way it COULD be. There was no way the Kremlin was going to allow a debate; and there was no way Carlson was going TO debate. So, like I said, it was what it was supposed to be.
For people who don’t read, it gave them the opportunity to hear Putin’s positions. Though, he did contradict himself vis-a-vis some previous comments and positions. But, that is not unusual, as politicians often do that.
It was better — though not more entertaining — than the Biden clown show “press conference.”
Jealousy is such a negative emotion.
You and biden should get a padded room together. They’ll bring you pudding, and change your diapers, don’t worry.
It's all rather simple. Because Lithuania at one time controlled Ukraine, Russian power shifted to Moscow.
Lol. Everyone is a critic now. Carlson scooped every one of these incompetent CIA/MI6 run “news” outlets. Buncha spook run propaganda outlets. Only the worst sort of lying propagandists cite the sex”sources”.
Putin had all of the classic Russian "it is what it is" psyche on display, with a touch of "Eff you little boy".
He's not a stooge, and not an idiot.
You don't crawl up out of the KGB by being a nice guy.
One major take-away for me was seeing the enormous mental disadvantage we have with Biden, as compared to the Putin.
