Ukraine crisis: Russian militants in Donetsk ‘declares independence from Kiev’ and sets date for bogus referendum on joining Russia

[kiryandil]

I read further in this report: there's a note stating "A Ukrainian military observer claimed on August 18 that Ukrainian forces liberated Zapodine and Dorozhnie.".

A "report" from The Institute For Grifting On War? "Cookies" Nuland's group?

[Petrosius]

They built massive fortifications since 2014, hmmmm, think about that. They were pre- meditated….been preparing for war with Russia for at least eight years….compliments of Nuland, McCain and our Neo/cons.

Right, building defensive lines are sure sign that you are going to attack. I guess France was planning to attack Germany when they built the Maginot Line.

Your Putin is dumb dumb dumb for blowing up his best general Prigozhin.

Moar one-liner trollink.

What Kursk doink?

What Sapsans doink?

“Trump will increase secondary sanctions on Russia”

They are a very bad idea. Trump is just making countries angrier at the US. The Chinese might decide to cut off Walmart and Amazon, causing the US stock market to crash. The Chinese can temporarily cut VAT on selected consumer items until the Dow Jones drops 25% to keep up domestic employment. Putin might hold off on a reasonable deal hoping that Trump will crash the stock market.

“more weapons to Ukraine”

The weapons are being held so Zelensky has an incentive to sign up to a reasonable deal. Trump knows a lot about getting a deal done.

“wait until the Russian banks start failing”

Loans can be rewritten to be affordable. Loans don’t have to be called as they were in early 1933 in the USA.

Yeah I’m obsessed with you, nothing burger.

I lie about the war and it’s origins?

I say very little about the war. I react to anti American kooks.

You as a propagandist accuse every patriotic American of the same stuff.

[Negan]

Man, all these dumb posts by our Russian troll farm. You never EVER read them criticizing Putin or Russia for anything.

I wish the powers-that-be do something about all of this garbage in here that's ruining the forum. It's nothing but a flame-fest in here nowadays. The DU flakes must be laughing at us in here.

Just.... THANKS for posting !!!

[lodi90]

It’ll be given over, one way or another.

Or...maybe z can push Russia out.
Oh...wait...that’s right..they can’t

There isn't anything I posted here I can't back up with facts.

Try me.

This explains a lot:

Canada has a significant Ukrainian population, the third largest in the world outside of Ukraine and Russia, with approximately 1.36 million people identifying as having Ukrainian ancestry. This community represents about 3.8% of Canada's total population.

Just like France knew Germany would attack them.

France had the surrender papers ready.

It’s all about Russian getting warm-water ports.

If Russia completely went home, AND gave back Crimea, they'd still have over 200 miles of coastline on the Black Sea, including Sochi and Novorosk. (And 300 more in the Sea of Azov!) It'd be cheaper for them to expand those facilities, or build more along that coast, than take Ukraine's by force. Unless "warm water port" is merely a minor side benefit, and not an actual objective of the Special Military Operation.

Yes, Ukraine pre-meditated getting Special Military Operationed by Russia. They planned to get invaded again after Russia stole the entire Crimea, so you're surprised they started building better defenses?

If you had an aggressive neighbor that stole some of your land, would you just offer him more like Chamberlain? Or try to prepare for the next time he comes back?
