Your comment dovetails with some of my thinking though I got there by way of a different direction. I find that interesting, thanks for your take.

“the cause of the explosions of the gas pipeline was sabotage.”

Yes, by Russian separatists. Not the Ukrainian forces.

Hey asshole!

Did I say anything about hailing Putin?

I commented on his performance in a SINGLE measure. One.

But you, the stupid toilette scum of a neocon you are, assume I’m putting up some general worship statement.

That’s why nobody wants to have a conversations with you crazed zealots. You effers are crazy.

I just do not care anymore what goes in in Europe. For decades Europeans have looked down on Americans as being violent and uncivilized while at the same time they try and hid centuries of pure evil in their history. The peace in Western Europe following WWII is an aberration and it looks like the real Europe will soon emerge.

“Do you have any specific facts to back up what you’re saying that you can share with us?“

No.
Only that Putin massed thousands of troops on the border and and has been looking for an excuse to send them in.
Too many wars have started this way, it just seems obvious this is what he’s doing .

Thanks, I’ve been reading a lot in Russian and Ukrainian and German news sources in the last couple of months.

It’s remarkable how good Google translate is. I loathe Google, but I gotta give them props on their translation software.

Not saying everything I read is accurate or not propaganda, but at least it’s a much broader source of information than just relying on the MSM.

I don’t know dip about gas pipelines, but if damaged by shelling yesterday as reported by WSJ, could these explosions be a result? And once it gets sparked off, would there be secondary explosions?

Putin needs high oil and natural gas prices to sustain his power. Biden wants high energy prices to damage the US economy.

That is basically how the Mexican-American War started. We had troops on the border just waiting for Mexico to fire some artillery our way.

This is one of the funniest threads I’ve read in a while.

Yogi Berra is the only person that make sense of this situation.

And I’m not saying I know anything about what’s next, I don’t. I’m just watching and waiting.

My only assumption is that Biden will look like a putz (that’s his job) and Obama is behind the USA policy whatever the hell it is.

Biden & Biden have made a bunch of money illegally from the Ukrainians. Suppose they threaten to expose him if he doesn’t help protect them…..?

Once we would have said "Ha, what conspiracy nonsense." But now the Biden types are so corrupt that any such conjecture bears examination. If even for a moment.

Who would have believed Hillary would get away with hiring someone to spread total fabrications against Trump and Russia through an election, a four year term and a year later?

The one who benefits most is Xi. As the pandemic winds down, demands for a proper investigation will be subsumed by Biden’s Ukrainian war. Biden is China’s useful idiot. As are the neocons.

Yep, I told my wife the other day that his last press conference, where he all but told the Ukrainian President they’re on their own, that it was another “fire the prosecutor” moment.

I’d say a third party wants Russia and Ukraine in a war. If they’re not beating the drums for it, who is? We know Biden’s been beating the drums about it for weeks.

“Regardless of what one thinks about Biden, to suggest that Putin is less corrupt is really laughable.“

***********

Not so laughable really. Biden may not be Putin’s equal in terms of the scale of corruption (not yet, but give him more time) he’s no slouch when it comes to then business of international shakedowns.

Does Putin have a deeply corrupt son like Hunter Biden?

Does he allow and/or assist millions of people to invade his country and then hide their transport into the interior of the country — at taxpayer expense?

Did Putin shut off his own pipelines while OKing the development of others by his adversaries?

The ‘Big Guy’ has three more years to edge Putin out.
