It's ON: South Korea May Arm Ukraine Amidst New Russia-North Korea Pact

South Korea is reconsidering its policy on providing lethal weapons to Ukraine in response to a recent defense pact between Russia and North Korea. This shift comes after South Korea condemned the agreement between Russia and North Korea, which pledged mutual defense assistance in the event of war. Previously, South Korea had only provided non-lethal aid to Ukraine, but the new development could see South Korea supplying artillery shells and possibly other lethal weapons to support Ukraine in its conflict with Russia.

I go by what you do, and by what you do not do.

None of your alleged knowledge is used in argument. No cite, no experience is explained and used as context, no data is analyzed.

Your only arguments are ad hominem. Which tells us precisely what you have to offer, which is just resentment and malice. An empty vessel, with nothing in it but a bad odor.

[buwaya]

Cites of previous cases where such arguments have been made.

I have, perhaps, overestimated your ability to recall the circumstances. I dismiss your argument therefore, on empirical grounds.

It is also an illogical emotional appeal, in that, for instance, that the victim of a crime is unworthy.

We don't have to "meddle" or "provoke" other countries to be attacked. Countries or elites war for wounded pride or honor far more often than economic reasons. They fight for their own reasons, and thinking their reasoning is the same as ours is a fundamental misunderstanding Western democracies seem to be incapable of avoiding.

It doesn't matter if the war makes no sense to us as long as it makes sense to them. And any appeasement or negotiation just looks like weakness.

I can’t even dignify that claptrap with a response. It’s as if you’re typing right out of the WEF Handbook.

[Allegra]

LOL - I don’t care what you’ve overestimated of what you think of me. I don’t put any effort into discussions with you because you completely lack any logic or sense.

You fail to understand that I don’t take you seriously at all. I just don’t think you’re very bright. I feel that way about most zeepers.

You’re entertainment. Nothing more. 😊

We've spent a century seeing that various dictatorships start wars for reasons that seem opaque or ludicrous to us or that seem to have no net benefit but we still persist in insisting that they can be dealt with by any means other than force or the threat of force.

This perspective has nothing to do with the WEF: you can see it in Polybius, Cato, Cicero, etc.

It's your side that seems to be smoking hopium.

[Allegra]

You don’t even know what my “side” is.

I’ve exceeded my quota of nonsensical foreigner entertainment for the day. I will allow you the last word. Have at it, Boryslav!

While we do have a peace movement going on, it is hard to get the crowds when we aren’t in a war.

“South Korea has neocons too? Those neocons are everywhere”

It’s not much of a stretch to link Putin’s getting in bed with North Korea, considering HE SAID AS MUCH (but only AFTER the Neocons green-lit Missile Attacks on Moscow, and had not been there in 25 years. But no
