“America ain’t far behind. Trump’s trying to save it, but . . .”
We ask God to save us on a major scale. We need to keep doing this. We got rid of constitutional approval of abortion. Trump has help
God Bless America
We helped Europe twice last century. They lost a lot of men. Have they looked for help? They seem to be ok with this
In Russia, you can say whatever you want. You can go out and preach the gospel. In the UK, that'll get you arrested.
In Russia, you'll get arrested for speaking out against Putin regarding the war in Ukraine. But everyone in Russia knows that is off-limits. So the restrictions are clear.
In the UK, you're not really sure on what is considered to be "hate speech". You don't have to worry about that in Russia (although they are not going to tolerate you if you are known to be openly gay).
The other NATO countries don’t seem to be worth defending.
At one time Great Britain controlled Ocean Shipping - every item shipped was touch by an English Ship or worker. Not no more - the Red Chinese control Ocean Shipping - from the building of Container Ships and the Container to the cranes at the Ports. England is a complete non-factor in an industry they once controlled.
UK and the rest of Europe are crashing into destruction, that destruction has nothing to do with Ukraine, but certainly Russia has a hand in it.
Was happening before the war and certainly accelerating now, but the idea that Russia is a haven of free speech and God given rights is fantasy.
Europe has a ways to go to catch up to Russia when it comes to censorship and human rights abuses, but they are charging full speed ahead.
Just ask the singers who dared to sing about the “old man in the bunker” anout freedom and free speech🤔
Europe has been dying for decades. It seems to be a terminal illness.
Collectivism is part of it but it’s more complicated than that. They look at life very differently from Americans.
We are the extremists, thank goodness.
USA: “Live free or die”
Europe: “What, me worry?”
“Why bring up Russia and Ukraine? They are not in NATO”
I didn’t bring up NATO, but since you did I would say Turkey is playing both sides and Hungary and orban are definitely on the Kremlin payroll
Be careful calling Russia a dictatorship the usuals will tell you all about the free and fair elections that have kept pitin in power for 25 years😂
You can only preach the gospel in Russia, if you belong to a Kremlin approved church.
‘Systematic harassment’ of Russian religious minorities
“Since President Vladimir Putin launched his full-scale military invasion of Ukraine on February 23, 2022, Russian authorities have continued their systematic harassment and prosecution of religious minority communities within the Russian Federation, while simultaneously undertaking the largest crackdown on independent civil society in decades,” the update on religious freedom within Russian stated.
Russian officials have accused religious minorities of extremism, terrorism and blasphemy—and labeled them as “undesirable organization”—to crack down on religious leaders who have not voiced support for Russian aggression toward Ukraine, the update noted.

How this notion hatched and took root is a grave mystery.
I get that, and I have no love lost for our Europe “allies”, but it is not difficult to condemn what Europe is doing as well as discussing the crack down on freedoms in Russia.
They’re not worth defending. Let them collapse. We need to worry about saving America.
Usually one topic at a time
There is a lot to condemn in the world. Russia China India Middle East Isreal ....
It’s been trying to commit suicide for centuries. The Americans keep rescuing them. Will the Americans send their sons to die on European soil yet again to save Europe?
Let’s just drop the Big One.
Europe is gone.
If Europe has to have a dictator, I’d rather have it be Putin than von der Leyen.
“If Europe has to have a dictator, I’d rather have it be Putin than von der Leyen.”
Are you sure you are on the right site?
I have noticed the uptick of Putin supporters here ...
Hit the nail right on the head. Islam is incompatible with liberty, that "freedom for all" stuff being the antithesis of "submit."
